Gothamite Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 why must so many teams use a basketball in their logo. Honestly, it's been done to death. That's a league directive, IIRC. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 why must so many teams use a basketball in their logo. Honestly, it's been done to death. That's a league directive, IIRC. It's probably encouraged, not directed.The Spurs and Blazers don't use basketballs at all, and the Bobcats, Bulls, Nuggets, Warriors, Rockets, Grizzlies, Bucks, and Timberwolves don't use a basketball in their primary logos Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosox Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 It took a couple of days for this logo to grow on me, but it has. I like the direction this redesign is taking though. It's simple, classy, and fits perfect for a Brooklyn move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whittier S Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Isn't the sneakers hanging from the wires kind of a trademark of nearly every urban area? Or at least every east-coast urban area?I always thought it was street-code for crack house.In my hometown of Bloomington, Indiana, it's a tradition for the college students to throw a pair of shoes over the wire by the time they graduate. I've seen it a bit around the U of Minnesota here but it's not nearly as prevalent. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claystation360 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Classic Logo, only in Brooklyn. I just wish they would have had someway put a "net" in the logo. #DTWD #GoJaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhans203 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I'm just throwing this out there, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Nets wore 'black and white' throwbacks (in the fashion of Miami's 'Back in Black' jerseys). Could you imagine how awesome a black and white version of the old ABA jerseys, current jerseys, early 90s jerseys or even that awful cursive script jersey from the 80s? You'd have to admit those would sell.Just my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Awful cursive script that said New Jersey, that was a great uniform almost as good as the Petro era tie dyed one. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the NBA fear teams are so little known that the public might not know they are a basketball team? Look at how many teams in the other leagues use their sport's ball in the logo. Even the MLS, as little known as their teams are, don't do this as much as the NBA.NFL1 out of 32MLB1 out of 30MLS6 out of 19NBA19 out of 30 Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pianoknight Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Guess you love it or hate it.And I'm in the second camp. Looks like Jay-Z made this in Microsoft Publisher with some clip art. Every time I see this blah rebrand it's like their logo is farting all over the internet.why must so many teams use a basketball in their logo. Honestly, it's been done to death.

Or at least every east-coast urban area?I always thought it was street-code for crack house.It started out as a signal for a corner where drugs could be bought, but now kids just do it for the fugg of it.And BBTV is right... every urban area did/does this. Even the opening credits for Friday (set in LA) has a backdrop of sneakers on a wire.#lowerprintingcostsYeah, but what are you gonna do for an alt jersey in a few years? You can't just add black trim to it and call it a day, like the Cs did. Done! honestly this rebrand screams bland and unispring and lazy. i cant wait to see all the gangstas and thugs walking around with this stuff.LOL @ this from a Long Islander calling himself "Punk."
