2011-12 NBA Logo & Uniform changes

Maybe it's just the photo, but the blue in the tweaked logo looks deeper/darker than the version of the new logo posted on the website. And to me, it actually looks better that way.

It SHOULD look like this:

If it doesn't it's inaccurate.

It's odd, when you go to the nba store, some of the knicks merchandise that features the new logo uses the one with the richer/darker orange and blue, like here: http://store.nba.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12092474

But the store itself and some merchandise uses the faded one, as does sports illustrated:

http://store.nba.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4151664&cp=1421554.2802370

http://store.nba.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=1421554

So which one is it? The richer/darker one is clearly better imo

Richer/darker = accurate color reproduction in RGB.

Faded = crap.

Egads! That thing looks like something you'd find lurking in the back of a Thrift Store. So frumpy.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

Those Philly mascots are terrible. How did they come up with a moose? The story doesn't even tie it into the team at all. It's like they weren't trying.

The new owners have been getting bashed mercilessly (sp?) about those mascots. The president even came on the radio to face the criticism, but I'm not sure what came out of that discussion.

To their credit, they are really listening to their fans via their new Twitter "suggestion box" and that's what resulted in the demented rabit's departure (though the story is that he fell in love, got married, and moved out to the country side to have babies) but this isn't what anyone had in mind for a replacement.

Well, from the front, the Jazz' green alt. has a hefty amount of green and gold, and it looks better than I thought:

However, I'm still wondering why those side panels are blue and not white or gold. This may be a guess by the game's designers, but we'll have to wait and see (however long that may be).

Per an email to season ticket holders, the new unis will be unveiled this Friday (12/9) between 2-4pm EST.

I'm really hoping for yellow or white - not blue - side panels.

The press release also said it can be used at home or the road? I wonder if that means the NBA is finally relaxing on white/gold at home? I'm all for that.

Sacramento, if you're going to keep going back to that old script, just keep it full-time. It looks better than what you have now. No one will complain.
