Much worse.The basketball looks more like a flying saucer or cowboy hat (the varying thickness of the lines looks goofy), and the text is far less readable than any block ought to be.

Nice to be here!Pretty nice. I say make the center court logo a bit smaller and get rid of the shield logo at both ends. Other than that, it's pretty much what I'm hoping for, and expecting, the Nets court to look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gyrocol Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Calling attention to one of the drawbacks of not taking the opportunity to rename themselves, the Nets have announced their dance team will be called...the Brooklynettes.Smart move... People can't use that as the Nets' derogatory nickname as effectively when the team already uses that name for its cheerleaders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 new nets logo just proves to me that the nba is now a thug/street ball league. terrible. Seriously? First of all, define "thug/street ball league"... and then explain how the NETS of all teams have a logo that fits that bill. Hell, the logo they just dumped looked closer to what you'd see at an And1 Streetball tournament than the new Brooklyn logo.

The_Admiral Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Football players tend to be thugs, punks, or what have you far more often than basketball players ever do. Probably because football requires that you be at least a mild sociopath whereas basketball requires that you be tall. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because football requires that you be at least a mild sociopath whereas basketball requires that you be tall.Try telling that to Spud Webb, Muggsy Bogues, Earl Boykins, or Nate Robinson. Hell even Allen Iverson was a "shortie", at only 6' 0". *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin W. Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Basketball gets an unfair rap because of the fact that it is seen as more associated with urban culture. I bet that Jay-Z wasn't the only person involved in the design of that logo, but it's decried as a "thug" design because of him despite the fact that he only owns 2% of the team.I mean, I dislike the logo but that has nothing to do with the so-called "thug" culture of the NBA. Besides, as the admiral pointed out, football players are a lot more violent anyway since football's a full-contact sport unlike basketball.
