JELKK Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Anyone see the differences? 2012: 2018: There is literally only 2 corporate advertisement in the top photo but theres an ad in every nook and cranny in the bottom photo. We've seen it happen to hockey but now the NBA has taken it a step further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 22 hours ago, anythinglogos said: I’m guessing this was the intention when the NBA decided to make every event logo boring But corporate sponsorships don't require boring logos, as the NBA has proven themselves. Personally, my theory is that it's a money-saving move. Adopting a bland, generic template for everything means they don't need to spend money to commission new, unique logos for annual events.

kimball Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 The NBA Finals Style Guide A few notes ... There's no soul to it at all. Initially I "KINDA" liked the design, but the more it's around and the more they use it and their streamlined logos ... no. Big no. I really hate the primary logo that includes the 2018. So, so, so boxy. I hope this is not the rendition on the court, but I also have a bad feeling we'll see this on the jersey. I sorta don't mind the presented by YouTube TV logo, but only on the horizontal logos. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

FinsUp1214 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 So the question I have is, what’s the Finals jersey patch going to look like? Or will there be one at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Uh, did everyone miss that the Mavericks have an ad on their uniforms now? I searched this thread and the news page and I saw absolutely nothing about this, ran a Google search and this was unveiled around March 6th or so. Also, they have a memorial for the original team owner Don Carter which looks to be done in the same font as the original uniform wordmark from the 80's.

But I think this time of year is too hard on everyone to keep track of new advertisement patches. I just realized Zatarain's was still in business.

BadSeed84 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 After the 3rd of 4th ad patch unveil, yea who cares? It sucks in general they are on team uniforms, but I'm not going to cry and moan everytime a team get's a sponser. I hope they stay as small as they are, but time will tell.

BadSeed84 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 The NBA is clearly the most corporately corrupted league, between the ad patches, generic championship logos, and being a toolbag to nike now. Yea not much respect for the nba on an aesthetic level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satomiblood Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Some ad patches are better integrated than others. Dallas' is pretty bad in the sense that it looks as if it was hastily put together. I feel like they'll modify it for next season. Trust me, I'd rather go back to the days of no sponsorships with the NBA logo back to where it belongs: the front of the jersey. Some teams have made a tolerable to good use of the ad space, though. I think Utah's might actually be the best due to the patch's overall shape as well as the team's color integrations. Cleveland's is a close second for the same reasons. Milwaukee's is probably the 3rd best look, though I wonder how the Harley Davidson logo would look in some combination of green, cream, blue, and black.
