And you guys were picking on the Timber Wolves new look? Im sure OKC will set an NBA record with lowest merchandise sold.

Its terrible. Its not even an professional indoor handball team worthy logo. I think KFC when I read the OKC part lol.

And a ironical slap in the face, when you click on the OKC website, when its loading it says Seattle Supersonics for a split second, ouch.

Not only that but they stole our Magic blue.

Their logo just looks so generic. Like what you'd see if you were playing NBA 2K9 and they just made up a logo to put in it's place because the team hadn't unveiled their REAL logo yet.

The logo stinks and the name is terrible (but could have been worse).

Looks like they tried to mock the warriors lightning thing but put their own twist on it

Lame.

Sad thing is that I've seen an incredible design by some dude that would have been perfect.

First mistake was naming them the Thunder (Barons would have been great), then they go an top it off with a stupid logo. Meh.

I hope they don't screw up the jerseys too. They better at the very least not screw up the jerseys. Even though the Logo is one of the biggest if not THE BIGGEST part to your team. But if they screw up the jerseys and make em look embarrassing they're marketing is going to be HORRENDOUS. Noone will want the jerseys, noone will want the logo.. this could be horrible for Durant marketing wise. Some would have rocked the Durant Sonics jersey cuz it wasn't bad. This.. :dontknow: .

This logo resembles 1990's-era WNBA logos, like Detroit Shock or Cleveland Rockers. What a pathetic logo. On top of that they steal the Warriors' colors, mascot name, and logo style.

When are the jerseys unveiled?

Love the name Thunder, maybe second favorite to Magic. But the logo, unbelievable. Even this is better.

Team uniforms, home and road, won’t be announced until late September


So we'll probably see them pop up around the same time our jerseys do.

It's unfortunate we didn't see this as the name and jersey..

That would of been sick if u ask me...

If they just felt they had to go with the Thunder, this would have been a much better option, in my opinion:

That concept, with a different color scheme so that you don't look just like the Cavs, and you've got a good looking logo.

Those definitely would have been a good looking logo. You had your primary logo, your secondary logo, and your alternate logo, which is good for small products and good for hats. Idk.. They better have something up there sleeves if they wanna draw a lot of people to the crowds.
