I like yours

looking at all the logos I think I like the Pacers the best. I like the simple ones. And the worst is Orlando it looks like something a school kid would doodle on his binder

It's nice, but there's too much detail. The best logos are fully recognizable when scaled down and easily reproducible.. I could redraw a lot of NBA logos from memory, that one I don't think I could even trace.

Sorry but that really doesn't look that good.

It looks like a design Sportsnet or CTV would draw up for a Raptors basketball presentation (which is also a compliment) but not something I would want to use as a logo.

Nets / Celtics / Hawks / Bulls / Magics / Spurs / Raptors are the ones I like.

I think our claw logo is one of the simplest and coolest logos in the NBA. Whatever the next logo is should be an updated version of that or something that incorporates it.

Hmm...this is some great feedback! Keep it coming, because it's giving me some ideas to bounce off of you. Thanks for continuing to speak your mind...for or against.

K...so far on my new design, I'm working with keeping it simple, claw logo incorporated, and scalable. What else?

Get rid of the claw, it's too plain and boring imo.

There should be a rule where new logo submissions can't have a maple leaf in them.

Looks it belongs to MLS. I really like it though, but it has nothing to do with the Raptors, except for the claw, which is there just to make that connection.

Bigger font, you can get rid of the "est. XXXX" bit to make room

I'm surprised we haven't considered any of the big cats as a name for a franchise:

Toronto Tigers
Toronto Panthers
Toronto Lions

Personally my favorite is the Toronto Lions. There is an obvious strength and regal feel to it which should at least subside some of the losing associations to our franchise (unless we reinforce it with another sad 18 years lol)

If Los Manos could swap out a Lion head and the name on to his take on the jerseys then it might be my ideal change.

No offense to the creative minds around here, but this is still by far and away the best Raptors re-branding attempt I've seen as far as the logo goes:

Looks more like a logo and uni for the Hawks then the Raptors.
