Do you guys like your team name?

[Unsung]

Before the NBA decided a new name for OKC new team, my most preferred name was the OKC Whiplash.

What do you guys think, do you guys like your new name?

I also would love it if you guys change your jersey to something like Yellow and Green (like a supersonic 2.0 version).

Whiplash, I actually don't know if it an actual word or not, but it sound powerful. Most of us NBA fans thought thunders were too generic. I have to admit it fit in fine now with the NBA after all of us have gotten use to it, but wouldn't a name like Whiplash sound so much better? Maybe it not really an NBA team name, more like an NHL team name though however.

OKC Whiplash vs the Detroit Redwing

Yup now that i think of it, that is definitely a NHL name. Cool name though right?

[Clangus]

i like the name as is

I believe those colors had to be left in Seattle

"thunders" is not a correct way to pronounce the team's nickname OKC Thunder no "s" at the end it is already plural
p.s. Detroit Redwing(s)

I think just like all names/jerseys/mascots, once it's been around for a bit, people just get used to it and it is a non-factor. The odds of the name changing at this point are amazingly low... it happens VERY rarely, and would be even more unusual for such a new team/name.

I could definitely see the jerseys/logo (not necessarily the colors though) changing in the next year or two. There was a lot of fuss initially about how bad both were. I think they were a little rushed out of the gate and they could be revisited and really improved upon.

When there was the voting about the new team name I believe the Barons were the closest to make the cut. Other names that were a possibility according to news reports were the Energy, Bison, Marshalls, and Wind.

Plus, I read somewhere the suggestion Mustangs.
I thought that sounds pretty cool, Oklahoma City Mustangs

[BadWolf]

You think anyone would like a team if you named it Lakers?

[DumbyTheWizard]

Barons sound horrible.

Someone once proposed OKC Twisters. I thought that was funny.

They should have gone with Oklahoma City Thiefs

or

Oklahoma City Bandits

or

Oklahoma City just stole a **** team from Seattle.

I can't say that the word originality really sums up those ideas... but I actually did kind of like the name Oklahoma City Bandits, personally

I like it as it is. I just hate the way Brian Davis pronounces the team name, well I hate Brian Davis in general.
