Welcome to Brooklyn, Nets...congrats on becoming the Clippers of NY.

I actually dig it. Could've gone with different colors like maybe substitute the white for Gold but black and white is classic.

I always find it funny when Knicks fans call the Nets "the Clippers of NY", which implies that the Knicks are "the Lakers of NY".

The Knicks are nothing close to the Lakers.

The "Lakers of NY" have now lost 11 straight playoff games over a 12 year period.

Yeah, real superior to the Brooklyn Nets....

Nah bobcats is much worse. I actually don't mind the alt logo. Main one kinda sucks.

The amount of swag is ridiculous. From the tees to the caps to the court, simply looks fresh.

It's gonna come down to the jerseys with me though. They can't mess up on those.

I love black and white color schemes (White Sox fan), but the Nets blew it.

An old stylized Brooklyn Dodger's B would have looked amazing. Instead it's just such a boring font.

Brooklyn Dodgers are very protective over that trademark...wouldn't let them use it.
