Mac the Knife Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 What in the everlasting gobstopping **** is this? Someone get the folks in Chester on the phone and tell the Union that the Sixers are hijacking their logo in a really, really weird way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I'm guessing it's in five segments for five players? The segmented snake used to represent different colonies, but that's not really applicable here. I'm just kinda shocked that ^^^^ will be the center court logo for the playoffs. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalcowboyfan92 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Eh, I think the logo of it being just the Liberty Bell would be really good. Add a subtle basketball at bottom of the bell and I think the logo would be really dynamite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Akronite- Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 This is awesome! I love the imagery and it makes me kinda want other teams to have "playoff logos" that aren't simply the team logo with a catchphrase. Right now it's unclear how many segments there are, curious on the choice there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanshepherd Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Idk why they’d try to make a new logo when Ballin’ Ben is just sitting there largely unused i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Ha - the bot beat me. Bot 1, BBTV 0. They do have a recent history of ripping off other logos, so it's not a crazy thought that they were more than a little inspired. Regardless - I like it. I bet they'll wear their city-edition uniforms at home, at least up until game 3 of the finals. The rest of their playoff branding is based around it.

Cosmic Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I love it. It's a great metaphor for teamwork, and it fits their team name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumpygremlin Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 This may be unpopular, but I think this logo is strong enough to be a primary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynasty Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I don't hate the concept of the logo, but the snake feels tacked on... like it doesn't belong there. And why is the snake not wrapped around the entire logo (like the blue outline)? It just looks too weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
