  1. I've got a great idea to sell Idaho, Montana, and the Dakotas to Canada.
  2. I guess the cognitive dissonance is that Jazz are supposed to be purple...therefore I assume I'm seeing purple
  3. I somehow like the shade of yellow when my eyes are fooled into thinking the black is really purple.
  4. I'd like to see this graphic sorted into fewer columns combining yellow/gold/copper and blue/aqua/green like the purple gradient - to see if a cohesive palette could be found
  5. Not bad. Is the 90s light blue more teal than this, or is it an optical illusion. Can teal split take the place of the original green? I'd like to see more yellow. Feel like purple/yellow + accents of teal and black might work as a forever palette and work for j note, mountain and (not-red) red rock
  6. I bet they just work the purple into the mix. Purple is light / lavender enough that it differentiates from black. Big question is: Black/purple/yellow Purple/light blue/yellow Or all 4?
  7. Interesting how even between the 80's and 90s their palette wasn't consistent and in the 80s their colors were better used by the Lakers. I think it's the touch of green that made it their own and is why I like their recent identity as much as or more than any in their past. But I want to see a red rock palette swap to black purple light blue yellow
  8. Or the honest - we realized you want purple, so we're working on phasing it jn
  9. There are a LOT of mockups I'd like to see. They've entered CavFanatic territory. New / forthcoming palette seems like black + yellow + 90s purple. I'd like to see how other color could be integrated: +/- light blue +/- green (light or dark) +/- black Probably not copper. I'd like to see all combos applied to J note, mountains, and even red rock. In a way, most of their palettes overlapped slightly, with varying degrees of divergence from original Mardi Gras: Purple/black/navy Gold/copper/yellow Kelly Green/teal/Light blue/ forest green Red rock is harder to tie in, but gradient of black to red to yellow could somewhat translate to black to purple to yellow. A mess, but easier to incorporate than Cavs orange
  10. Pretty obvious but a good summary. Good reminder that it's about damage mitigation.
  11. I'd say drop the copper (and probably leave out the green) and include the yellow. Maybe with the baby blue every era is tied together.
  12. Ain't no mountain high enough. Classic motown, famous for jazz...almost as famous as utah
  13. Yes. It's embarrassing and hilarious, but better than doubling down on black + yellow! Replace the black with purple and it's not that bad. Pretend the black is purple like I did with the Navy?
  14. Purple Bucks and original Wizards identities are underrated
  15. Is that how , for example, Premier League kits work? General colors and elements refreshed frequently - with an unrelated "clash" palette also available. Not traditional for US sports, but not unreasonable or unprecedented.
  16. I actually liked their parade of Mashups. Gave a touch of continuity to the different designs
  17. History is too disjointed, therefore start over with another unrelated palette. The Utah Jazz approach.
  18. Exactly what I jokingly suggested upthread. Ugh. Weird that it worked in 2003 but next to the black it looks awful like 1983. Simplifying the wordmark and dropping the sword. Just awful drabness and emptiness. Hope we can see LeBron back in them
  19. Maybe the Jazz are playing a brilliant long game to tie purple mountains, red rocks, and gold note all together. Got to clean the slate first and start with black and yellow. Then add the purple back in Maybe not
  20. Obligatory https://youtu.be/_S5YU5iMmqc
  21. What about adding purple? Black gradient yo red almost suggests it already. Probably a stretch to tie this into traditional palette, but...
  22. I like the phrase "apropos of nothing"
  23. That would have made sense. I've become more on board with teams having unrelated alt/clash sets. Nets RWB vs BW. Jazz Mardi Gras vs red rock. Cavs wine/gold vs orange. Heat black/red vs vice. Some wholesale alt identities/brands work. Still don't see a place for this apart from tie in to redrock.
