I hope the Raps don't go back to purple.

I was at the Nets game and the scoreboard, upper bowl electronic signs and video boards were displaying a ton of purple and it all looked very flat.

I would rather stick with red/silver/black.

Sick, see what that copper looks like instead of purple too.

this could be one of many logos. The hornets use three of these on their jerseys but just smaller. Maybe that's what the NBA wants.

What's the point of that? To water down the brand as thoroughly as possible?

At this point between the grammar, blatant trademark infringement nobody is going to notice the awkward use of ellipsis. Maybe the writer has asthma

Not particularly interesting.

And not particularly identifiable.

Generic might be the word.

I've heard it's going to be black and gold from someone who has ties. But who knows.

Looking at this rebrand today has stirred me deeply.

When I get back in January, I'm going to make some more; try and put my money where my mouth is.

Let's see what I'm actually made of...

Little hard to see there!

But I would love to see what you could do if you really tried! With whatever the proper colours are going to be!

It's people like you that find a way to complaint about anything....This team finally has some semblance of an identity and you're hating....I was personally tired of losing all these years....Now that we're winning, I'm simply happy...

nice creative choice.. but graphically simple.
Lets see the whole package before people panace

Post #219 » by **Rhettmatic** » Fri Dec 19, 2014 6:55 pm

Personally I still think they're going to go with that silver/gold/copper/black mix.

DJ_RnC · Post #220 » by **DJ_RnC** » Fri Dec 19, 2014 6:55 pm

not a fan but I still think it's better than the logo we have right now

Also, let's not forget that from a design perspective we are in an era where simple and minimalist is what's "in" right now.

Do you like the new logo?
