hershey chocolate 0 Posted May 11, 2015 im guessing a Cleveland like update to the logo, that most people won't notice, like a dropping of the block around the circle 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kutztown 526 Posted May 11, 2015 im guessing a Cleveland like update to the logo, that most people won't notice, like a dropping of the block around the circleThe way things have gone lately, I wouldn't be surprised if they added a roundel layer to the classic b-ball logo and threw "PHILA BASKETBALL" in there. Would certainly beat their current primary. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kutztown 526 Posted May 11, 2015 I know the team has also included this logo into a few e-mails they've sent out to season ticket holders recently. Kinda hope it's not part of the new identity though. The ball/skyline portion is decent, but I hate the "Sixers City" banner. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How is it that the 76ers were forced to add the box and "Philadelphia" below that fabulous logo to appease the NBA, but the Clippers are going to go with just the word "Clippers" and that's perfectly fine? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ball/skyline portion is decent, but I hate the "Sixers City" banner. 1. It's missing the tallest building in the city. 2. The new tallest will be topped off in late 2016 so the logo would just have to change. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(its shaped like it) Just looks like they scaled them down so the logo wasnt uneven. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miketd1 129 Posted May 11, 2015 Too bad Philly's iconic building is actually Independence Hall like in this 1984 Phillies logo:By the way, there's an interesing back story about this logo. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mcrosby 3,603 Posted May 11, 2015 By the way, there's an interesing back story about this logo. The article itself specifically calls the story "kind of boring". I went in expecting an interesting back story, I came out knowing that they employed a designer and he designed a logo. Riveting stuff. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus it's got William Penn on top. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigEd76 329 Posted May 11, 2015 They're reaveling a new logo tomorrow? I thought just the uniforms were changing not logo. Like I mentioned in the main 2015-16 NBA Changes topic, the changes are "very subtle" and there aren't any color updates 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it was BAT at first, but that has more setbacks.Either way, CITC would render this logo obsolete soon. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCalderwood 552 Posted May 11, 2015 Their current identity and colors are great, so I'm glad it sounds like none of that is changing.I agree with those who have said that the retangular primary logo shape is silly, so I hope that's one feature that is changing. It sounds like they are going to make the tweaks they need to and not much more, so I'm expecting a good result here. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
