hawk36 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Crawdads is still better than Bobcats.It wouldn't be a horrible thing to see something along the lines of New Orleans Riverpilots or something like that - makes sense. I don't know if this has been suggested, but would it be a horrible thing to see the old days of same-city nicknames return? New York Giants did it, as did a few others, I think.New Orleans Saints for the NBA team too, maybe with some different colors?I'd love that too, Saints. I'd even use the same identity, etc. I'm sure it wouldn't be allowed but with the same owner, why not?Or, what about at least the same black/gold color scheme? I love how the Seahawks and Sounders (same owners) have very similar colors. Make black/gold the unofficial colors of New Orleans.

eRay Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Wouldn't the NFL be able to sue the NBA? I know the owner wouldn't sue himself, but that would be directly copying something that is a part of the NFL's brand as an entirety. Maybe not, I'm just asking. The real problem would arise when he decides to sell one of the teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they do this in Europe with soccer and basketball teams that are owned by the same groups having the same names. Here is Real Madrid basketball. Same crest as soccer.

Gothamite Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 That's because they're both fielded by the same sporting organization. Not even quite the same as having the same owner, who could sell off one of the teams at any time. In this age of merchandising, no two teams would be allowed to have the same name.

vmd9 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Fake or not ?Definitely fake. The name is spelt wrong.......it's spelt ArchangelsI took the spelling as being a play on the three-point arc.Also says concept logo at the bottom. I think it's a cool logo, but not a very good name. It just seems to minor-league to me. Really can't think of anything cool off the top of my head, but think that the colors should be black/gold. Since the Saints are the only other big-four team in the city, and owned by the same group. Preferably I'd like it to be a similar shade of vegas gold, but athletic could work too. It is after all a color combination unused in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Matt Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Whatever the New Orleans' NBA franchise does, I hope they change the colors to purple, gold and green. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't most fans who live in New Orleans love their team to have Mardi Gras themed colors?

GeauxColonels Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 PLEASE no black and gold color-scheme. I love the Saints and Hornets as much as anyone, but I think both franchises need unique identities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
