The casino will be part of the team name?  

 

Pro tip, Clippers:  If you really want stuff to be legit, don't :censored: it up everytime.  

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Detroit finally did the deed. I'm still upset because I think the Bad Boys-era logo is crappy, but at least it's better than the current logo they've been using for about a decade.

 

I am also of the opinion that the Lakers logo is overrated, though it's pretty much a legacy now so it shouldn't be changed. The "L" logo is trash though.

That would immediately be LA's best logo. And that's saying something.

I was thinking the same thing...this simple modification EASILY makes the Clippers logo better..adds the water aspect to a marine team.

Are the Clippers moving from DTLA to Ontario?  (Just kidding.)

Ladies and Gentlemen we have a winner of the dumbest name of the year.

What is wrong with Ontario Clippers?

BTW, This isn't good when your D/G-League team has better logo than you.

Reminds me of the Warriors D-League team's alternate logo

It's not identical but similar none the less.

I'm all for my old hometown Ontario getting some hoops, and even better a team with ties to the Clips. That being said the name is trash. Why not just Ontario Clippers? The logo is cool though. Better than the parent club by a long shot.

They got paid to add "Agua Caliente" to the name.

Because when you play in a league that just sold naming rights to Gatorade you can't have any more nice things.

And it's the way things are going. Corporate arena names? Check. Ads on everything including jerseys? Check. What else can be used to advertise? The team name, of course! The 2025 Eastern Conference finals: featuring the GE Celtics vs. the Stub Hub 76ers! I just hope the Little Caesars Pistons can officially unveil their logo in a timely manner...

The H-E-B Spurs are going to get themselves a three peat.

Here I was thinking no one would ever outdo the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim for needlessly complicated team names, but no, here comes the Clippers to add product placement to the mix!

Great job Hot Water Clippers, you're proving the G-League is a wasteland for creativity. Glad I'm not the only one who thought of Santa Cruz's alternate logo when looking at this, either.

ESPN.com is reporting Goodyear will be the Cavs jersey sponsor next year. Goodyear's wingfoot logo will be on the jersey.

I guess it could have been a lot worse. Using just the wingfoot and the fact that it's usually either gold or blue will help it blend in with the jersey.

 

Goodyear has some historical ties to basketball, so it helps to have that connection too. Just pretend it's a commemorative patch.

I swear, if the NBA goes that route, I would seriously drop following the league. No way it happens, right? RIGHT?!

As far as logo patches go, this is probably as good as it's going to get. It's a local company (HQ in Akron), the company's colors mesh with the team's, and it's an iconic and simple logo.

I still hate these patches though.
