bohob Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I love the color scheme. I've been trying to think of a good one for the Nets myself. There are a couple small things that I think would improve this:? The B logo could use some work. Maybe put the three stars in the stem of it.? I think one of the jerseys should say BROOKLYN. My preference would be the alt.? I agree about the e in Nets. It could be a little curvier.There's my two cents. I hope that helps. Good stuff!

fishheatcats Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 Update time!Made a few tweaks: modified the "e" in Nets slightly to make it a bit curvier, also dropped out the white behind the script to show the basketball better. I left the alternate logos the same, I liked the way they looked on the unis too much to change them. Most notably I added a "Brooklyn" script based off the "B" for the road uniform, I like it but it's giving me a serious Kansas vibe on the blue.Also I added a version with red as an accent color. I prefer the version without red, I think it gives the Nets a new identity moving forward, separating the new Brooklyn era from the Meadowlands era.

CJworks Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I think the addition of red really makes this thing pop, but now that I look at it, there's too many similarities that make it look like the Clippers.

I know red white and blue is traditional for the team but it makes it look like the Clippers and rebrand of the 76ers logo. Maybe another color besides red.

rvrdgsfn Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Like the update for the away, maybe a darker shade of red though, all in all, a really good concept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohob Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I still prefer sans red. They'd be the only roayl/silver team. With red, they look like the 76ers, Clippers and Pistons.

TornadoGTS Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I'm not feeling the Brooklyn script (along with the B in ball), just looks out of place to me. If it was the same as the Nets script, I think it would look awesome. But i like everything else about it, like the Nets script and the primary. I also like it with just the blue and gray.

GeoTheo Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I liked this update before, and now that you've brought the red back into it, I love it. I like that you put "BROOKLYN" on the aways, I'm just not crazy about the font, it seems to "skiny". I think it would look much better if you put the "BROOKLYN" from the primary on the aways.

Quillz Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Looks really nice. I kind of wish they'd wear blue at home and use the white on the road, but it seems that most NBA teams not called the Lakers like to wear white at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdAstraKC Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I think these look great. I like the use of the red. It adds a lot without demanding a lot of attention. The "Nets" script looks awesome, too. I would be really excited to see an NBA team with these jerseys. Simple, clean and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lakers got grandfathered in, but the Pacers and Hornets didn't.

BBTV Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'd go without red (or even less than you have here - maybe just the vertical piping on the jersey/shorts) and with the Nets wordmark on the blue jersey. It's too good to be replaced by that Brooklyn text. Besides, while a few teams do switch nickname and city on their jerseys, I'm not sure that any have totally different designs for the two. Put the Brooklyn on the alt if necessary. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

The_Admiral Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 It's pretty good, but I cannot overcome the simple fact that the inherent elision of "Brooklyn Nets" yields the effeminate "Brooklynettes." Like an old Phil Spector girl group. Suzie Lehman and the Brooklynettes, famous for their 1963 hit "Yeah Well Right Back Atcha." It's a bad name, and I don't care what Jay-Z thinks. Go write another crappy song about being a successful businessman who does not have sentimental attachments to women, you songwriting genius, you.In and of itself, the concept is pretty good, though the Brooklyn script is a little too thin and weak. I like the secondary logo with the B and the two stars, and the home script is pleasantly ABA-esque. I get that you're going for Dodger nostalgia on the third try, but it's really time we all let go. while a few teams do switch nickname and city on their jerseys, I'm not sure that any have totally different designs for the two.Well actually, until this season, the Nets were one. Weird ugly nickname, plain arched block for location (though actually their location itself is a little weird and ugly, am I right). The Sacramento Kings' wordmarks are fairly divergent (and backward). ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESTONES6 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 i really like this so far, but i would like to see a little more continuity between the logos and wordmarks. In the B, you have 2 stars, in the Nets script, you have 3 stars. In the B logo, one star is red, the other blue. I guess i would like to see some more continuity.The BROOKLYN on the front i think needs to be thicker. the letters look a little bit thin. Not sure how it would look on court. Maybe incorporate the stars into the O's of Brooklyn. I don't know... i just kinda like seeing the continuity... thats all.

Camden Crazy Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 This is full of so much win. The only complaints I have would be: 1) Ditch the red2) Consider capitalizing the "n" in "nets" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 This is full of so much win. The only complaints I have would be: 1) Ditch the red2) Consider capitalizing the "n" in "nets"Don't do that. The lowercase n connectes to the ets way better than a capital N would. If it was a longer word with more graceful connections, then yeah - capitalize it. But this 4 letter word looks better with everything joined.

logocruncher Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Time for me to chime in on this one. I'm loving the overall look, in particular the "nets" script. The jersey style is simple, and a little bland, but it does the job to balance the "fancy" wordmark. Still, I feel like it could use some jazzing up, just to give it some visual interest. Now, on the roadies, I'm not really feeling the Brooklyn wordmark. First of all, it's pretty thin, and contrasts sharply with the number font. Second, it's like you've got two identities going on; one with the primary logo and home and alternate scripts, and one with the Dodgers-style B logo and the Brooklyn script. I'd recommend going with either one or the other; I'd choose the Nets one. It'd be a totally unique look in the NBA, and really looks pretty classy. Still, nice job on the whole thing. Great concept, and great execution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
