At 0:44 you can see the basketball is removed, although the court otherwise looks the same.


Wow, maybe it's time for me to get a PS4. After watching that I don't think the PS3 is going to cut it. Bout time they finally got Jimmy's face right.

It might be because I'm so used to the old court and grew to love it, but as of right now, I'm not a fan of the new court.

Ditto. Liked the old look of the court, it fitted well with the team imo. I guess they are going for a retro theme this time, maybe it will look better when we actually see it.

probably only consideration was TV camera POV, which I agree is not right.

Definately an upgrade. Brighter, sharper, better. And that big centercourt Bull is awesome

I definitely prefer the new and most or all of its features. Might even prefer the new wood tone but I'll have to see it in tv and in person.

Yeah, I saw this a while back on another site but couldn't verify its validity. I suppose the footage of 2k16 featuring the court is pretty strong evidence though.

I don't like everything about the change, but overall I think it is for the better. I like the new font used under the baskets (reminiscent of Chicago Stadium) and I am thrilled they finally got rid of the big orange basketball at center court. Like a lot of people here I've hated that since the UC opened.

If the hardwood is a littler darker than it appears in the picture (like it shows it in the short 2k16 video on this page), I think our court is going to look fantastic.

very glad they got rid of the basketball logo on center court.

Everything feels fresh and clean, goes hand in hand with new coaching staff.

I think overall the new design is an upgrade. I love the cleaner look and larger center court logo. If the court is slightly darker like in the above video, that would be great.

I agree..the basketball behind the Bull had to go. THANK YOU!

Love it!

It's exactly what I've always wanted in my minds' eye. I agree maybe the wood tone is a little light, but it's one picture so let's not all jump all over it until we see it for real.

I'd really like to see the Bulls follow the Laker's lead in branding-- keep the classic feel but play with it in small increments. The Laker's secondary "L" logo is a great example of that. Just minor evolutions like that and the new court and I'm a happy camper.

the hardwood is a bit on the bright side but i'll wait to see it live

im loving the other changes IE: removing the ball, and the stars from the flag is a nice touch

I dont think its going to bother you too much if you dont like it. It just grows on you after a while and it ends up being a non issue.

I used to hate old/current the center court logo with the basketball. After a while I didnt even notice it.

I think it looks pretty good. The font on the baselines is way better.

I have always wanted them to go back to the red out of bounds like the Chicago Stadium floors..

Don't you think we should try to get the upper hand here and mess with our opponents?

Thank you lord! I made a post a few years ago about changing the court. Removing the basketball and lightning up the wood color. The old one was very yellow tint. I like this better.

No joke..the Bigger Bull was to compete with the Spurs who just last season had the largest center court logo. We're coming.
