I love the new name.

Pelicans is pretty funny. Unique I guess, but funny.

I would have prefered names like 'Voodoo', 'Jesters', 'Krewe', etc. I like the name Pelicans because it's fitting for Louisiana and it's original. Now, we just need MJ to bring back the Hornets to Charlotte.

We are named after an animal that spends its life on the run from hunters and getting hit by cars. The only buck to ever defeat his opponent is the one on the Jagermeiser/Cazadores bottle.

Unfortunately Stern has made it clear that that won't happen, so they need to look for something new.

Agreed. Should have just shortened from Hornets to Horns when they moved.

Should just name the Saints and unite the two teams under one brand, kind of like FC Barcelona (and others in Europe) having both a Soccer team and a Basketball team.

Pelicans is a dumb name. They should have just asked Utah for the Jazz back, had Charlotte take the Hornets and give Utah a new name.

New Orleans Jazz

Charlotte Hornets

Harden is playing atrocious basketball right now.

Kebo is doing a number on Harden.

Just walked around him on D a couple of times. Harden has been putrid on both ends.

NO Steamers could have had some good potential versus Cleveland.

Sneak peak at the concept art for their logo.
