Hoopskid Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 An update concerning the new (old) Jazz identity... check the nba store main page, every playoff team has the team jersey and a t-shirt displayed, here's the shirt the jazz are showing...http://nba.imageg.net/graphics/product_images/p7424956dt.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmd9 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 That music note logo is so awful. There's a reason they stopped using it in the first place, what a joke to bring that back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazerBlaze Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 On the twitpic. Does anybody else see what appears to be 3 stripes in the middle of the pic? its very feint but its def there. Know this is a crazy idea, but maybe this is a b&w and thats part of a micro-printed logo(note?) on the uni? Just throwing that out there. Also, i'm a noob. How do yah add a sig? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Prediction: at least two teams will revert to "classic" logos in the 2011 offseason (my money is on the Kings and the Bucks) and we'll probably see at least a handful of teams change by the time this bandwagon reaches the end of the line. I'm sure the league wouldn't complain because most of these logos are free from the hip hop/grafitti influence that crept into so many of the 90s/2000s re-brands... seeing as how they can't toss hip hop under a bus quick enough these days.

CubsFanBudMan Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 So are they wearing the green throwbacks as their road jersey in the playoffs? Seems odd to promote/sell all green and gold and then play in double blue. Guess they don't have a choice at home. Will the crowd be given green shirts on every seat like they were light blue a couple years back?And what happened to the sneak preview at the final home game?

CubsFanBudMan Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The Jazz are wearing their usual navy roads, so so much for that. Don't get all of the green merchandise and ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The 76ers' mascot should be thrown under a bus, yes, but where's the graffiti influence in '90s redesigns?I can kinda see it in that brief fascination with angular curves and gradients. The pre-Iverson Sixers and the late-'90s Cavs come to mind. I could see how those styles could evoke scripts and airbrush styles often found in graffiti. Even then, seems like a bit of a reach.

The_Admiral Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 I only considered the bad mid-'90s Cavs design to be representative of bad mid-'90s design in general, though I guess graffiti was an element of that (as was new use and abuse of computer programs). ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to do it though, bring back the true original note instead of the cheap current one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 they need to do an updated version of the music note logo.just reverting and going with some "old school" uniform design is a bad idea to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me like it would be a good sound business decision for the Miller Family, considering how every Jazz fan yearns for the old look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me like it would be a good sound business decision for the Miller Family, considering how every Jazz fan yearns for the old look!I actually would agree with the idea of modernizing the old logo. I think if they do a modernization in the same vein of the new Seahawks or Cardinals logos it could be phenomenal. I find it hard to believe that the older versions of the Seahawks or Cardinals logos are better than what they have now. Perfect examples of how tweaking an already recognizable older logo can work quite nicely. I wish the Falcons had done that instead of over modernizing it and making it look like crap.

Wasatch Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 There was a topic months and months ago that went over how teams are penalized $700,00 - $900,000 if they bring in new logos that aren?t already part of their identity package or something like that. Does anybody remember what topic that was discussed in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anybody remember what topic that was discussed in?That's been discussed a lot...Seems like teams are changing logos a little bit more now, with the Sixers, and now rumors of the Clippers and Jazz - perhaps he are past the frustrating 'recolored logo' era - maybe the rule was changed?
