ESTONES6 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 So glad they didn't put the Trophy behind the center court logo. That was beyond cheesy.

dbadefense1990 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I don't why the heck they don't put trophy logo behind center logo anymore. that was ill. second year without that I think...Allegedly, too many players complained about how the big trophy logo creates a blight bewteen the headlights and their eyes, especially during fastbreaks. Not to mention some players couldn't see where the halfway line was, running the risk of a backcourt violation. So the NBA took off the logo for last year's title series.Besides, to me, it was just too loud. Just the Finals cursive logo is fine with me.

dbadefense1990 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I found some Finals logos from 1999 and 2001:1999 Primary Mark - gradient version:1999 Primary Mark - metallic alternate version:1999 Secondary Mark:2001 Primary Mark:2001 Partial Mark:Do you have any generic logos of the two versions? These are freaking SWEET!!! Reminds me of the Bulls' 3-peat II and the Lakers' 3-peat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Btw, just a hunch, but I bet Miami doesn't wear their black uni's at all this series.Just basing that off the pic of Wade and Haslem and the fact they only wore the red's last time they were in the Finals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DASH Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 does somebody have a little bigger picture of that golden ball logo? i never had a good picture of that but from far away it looks very ugly.this is my favourite finals jersey patch.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver2david Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I love the Finals logo. Classy and takes you back to an era when you had legends like Isiah Thomas, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. The overdesigned mid-to-late 90s/early 2000s stuff stunk. Glad they've returned to the classic Finals logo in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtrip Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I may be the only one, but I still think that the NBA champ should wear the trophy patch the following season. Not all of the players will have played on the previous season's championship team, but I like the idea of the "come and get us" patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like what the Giants are doin by wearing a patch all season. I seem to remember many on here don't like that, but like u said I like the idea of saying "come and get us" to the rest of the league. If I'm ever alive for a DC championship I want them to milk that s*** for as long as they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletor Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Does anyone else think that the "Finals" patch is a tad overbearing? Its just my opinion, but I feel the trophy logo or even a gold NBA logo would work just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loogodude90 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I don't have any pics, but it looks like the numbers and wordmarks on the players' warmup shirts are outlined in and colored gold, respectively (for both teams). I think the names-on-back on those warmups might have some gold, too. I'm assuming this is specifically for the Finals. This is new to me... has this been done before?

Zerakus Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 If anything, I think the NHL should be the only league worthy of wearing a defending championship logo the next year since the trophy isn't a reproduction every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at game one and was happy to see the giant Larry O'Brien was not at midcourt. It was just so obnoxious. Flight 19 ::: Fort Lauderdale Soccer Supporters ::: DEFEND THE FORT!
