Shadojoker Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Finally a court with decal AND PAINT!! Denver and New Orleans court would be so much better if they add color to their paint!! Uniforms still suck but they kinda work. Now as for my comments on the ASG unis... ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that their way of welcoming the fans? It's a nod to Drake, one of OVO's slogans is "Welcome OVO", it's even their instagram name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynasty Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 It's an owl icon, isn't it? It's either the mascot for some company he runs or he has some sort of thing for owls (weirdo). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - isn't OVO (which stands for the record label October's Very Own) supposed to look like owl eyes and a nose? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

keynote Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Yeah, Toronto is taking the co-branding with Drake too far. The Nets did a good job of drafting off of Jay-Z's street cred without overdoing it. They play classic Brooklyn hip hop as part of the in-game entertainment (Biggie, Gangstarr, Jay-Z, etc.), but they also play songs from other artists as well. They use slogans that reference Jay-Z, yet still work for the team, e.g., Hello Brooklyn, Brooklyn We Go Hard, etc. Yet they maintain other ties to their borough (e.g., the Brooklyn Dodgers alts) and to their franchise (their fauxback New York Nets' jerseys). And it's not as if the Nets' new black/white color scheme was a specific nod to Jay-Z (sure, he wore black and white on an album cover once, but they weren't his signature colors, per se). The Raptors' use of Drake's black and gold doesn't have any dual meaning for the city or the franchise that I'm aware off, other than "we're using Drake's colors."

jmatt116 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 the nba f'd up not going east vs west. hate me now. kick me from the forums, i dont care. I'm glad i can talk to you guys who actually know stuff and design and dislike 8/10 things that nike has changed or produced. taking away the finals script was strike 1. strike 2 was jersey ads. strike 3 is a non east vs. west asg. what should we expect now? a game of h-o-r-s-e?

I feel like strike 3 would've been changing the "Home, Road & Alternate" jersey names to Icon, Association, Statement and Icon or whatever and forcing every team to have to have 4 jerseys. Also I like all star games East Vs West too, but all leagues are hungry to have better ratings for the games. MLB is the only one to stick with their traditional format this whole time.

They have appeared on the rockets team shop website and I saw them hanging on the rack at a local Academy Laziest jersey ever. Really Houston?

DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 It would have been hilarious if Memphis hadn't worn their I AM A MAN jerseys today, but they are. They look fine. And of course the Lakers are playing on the road in yellow. I'm getting used to yellow vs white matchups, but I still don't like it. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
