Delux247 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I've determined 4 categories that every NBA teams' court can fit in to:The Minimalists (use as few colors, logos, etc.)- Celtics- Pistons- Pacers- Lakers (winner of minimalist award)- Knicks- Blazers- Spurs- JazzThe "Paint-Comes-Free" group (paint anything, use as many colors and logos as possible)- Bulls- Heat- T'Wolves- Nets- Magic- Sixers- KingsThe 'Tweeners (not quite minimalists, but not spending fortunes on paint either)- Mavericks- Nuggets- Warriors- Clippers- GrizzliesThe Stain Gang- Hawks (could be minimalists)- Bobcats- Cavs- Rockets- Bucks- Hornets (could be minimalists)- Suns- Sonics (could be "paint-comes-free")- Raptors- Wizards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I think the Celtics should win the Minimalsists category because they do not even have the stadium name in the center of the court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koizim Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I think the Celtics should win the Minimalsists category because they do not even have the stadium name in the center of the court.Yes, but I believe that for this season their court now says 'Red Auerbach Court' on it. Engine, Engine, Number Nine, on the New York transit line, If my train goes off the track, pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up! Back on the scene, crispy and clean, You can try, but then why, 'cause you can't intervene. We be the outcast, down for the settle. Won't play the rock, won't play the pebble.

ShinyHubCaps Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Pistons, minimalists?Considering the retired numbers near on the floor as well, they've done everything except sell ad space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnapHook Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I think the Celtics should win the Minimalsists category because they do not even have the stadium name in the center of the court.Yes, but I believe that for this season their court now says 'Red Auerbach Court' on it.The court was dedicated to Red on opening night, and his signature was painted on. It's off to the side near the Celtics bench and about 8 ft wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just has his signature like SnapHook said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEd76 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 The "Paint-Comes-Free" group (paint anything, use as many colors and logos as possible)- SixersI don't get this one. They removed the blue swirls from the court. It's very plain now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyHubCaps Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I also think there should be two sets for the stain gang. The Bucks have a very nice primary color set for the lane and the out of bounds area, with the secondary color for the area around the key. The Bobcats, Rockets, Suns, etc. leave everything unpainted, including the key and the out of bounds area. (Hawks have that too for the out of bounds, but I don't know about the key.)At any rate, the teams that pull it off should be separated from the teams that leave everything stained/unstained and not painted. There is no category low enough for those scourges of the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 If the Bucks used the dark stain inside the arcs as well, that would be one of the nicest courts in the league. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
