The copper one with the lettering in the copper too would be pretty sweet.

Still not too crazy about the basic template, but I think the copper one is the best out of the bunch. Taking out the inner white ring makes a big difference; it's a little bit less Nets-y now.

Just plain ugly. The current claw logo is fantastic. Why replace it with this monstrosity?

The logo is great because its clean and simple

The logo sucks because its boring and simplistic

The gold looks great

The gold looks like crap

The red looks great

We should have put in more red

We should have ditched the red

We should go back to purple

We should never ever go back to purple

Sounds like a typical RealGM Raptors thread

Its all Bryan Colangelo's fault.

NOW it sounds like a typical RealGM Raptors thread.

It needs to be red with red and white/black trims

this is also a solid colour scheme…

not gold. no.

make the letters white and it is slightly more tolerable

LMFAO

you are so clueless. That is exactly what I suggested with yours so you called me pretentious and uninformed. Someone else posts the exact same thing I said and you say it's a solid colour scheme.

lol, you're upset because i didn't accept your opinion… sorry i must've skimmed through it because i couldn't take your pretentiousness seriously… if i had noticed it, or you had posted your idea as an image i probably would have noticed it and also acknowledged it as a solid colour scheme… btw, more than a single idea or single colour scheme can be aesthetically pleasing… not sure if you're aware of that. you sound super butthurt about not being accepted though… like i said, it's hard to please the masses when all they care about is their own uninformed opinion… i think the logo looks nice. some people don't… does it mean it's not nice from an aesthetic and design perspective? no... nor does it discredit the efforts of the design and marketing team… if it was **** aesthetically i would've pointed it out… just like i pointed out what i though were nice looking colour schemes…

Bring the purple back, and modernize this logo like the Blue Jays did.

Okay, what would you people want to see since you're apparently all fashion experts.

You know, I really like that Drake is repping us so hard. With that being said, I hate that we're getting gold as one of our colors just because of him. After a couple of years people will laugh at it the same way they laughed at the dinosaur jerseys.

THis is by no means a great logo, but, it is identifiable as the "Toronto Raptors". Come to think of it, theres hasn't been a logo that I am absolutely crazy for. My favourite being the Raptor that is hugging the basketball.

Not really surprising as everyone has different taste.

Should have just stuck with the Raptor claw logo, which is unique and still looks great. Whereas this new one already looks dated (because of how many teams incorporate basketball into their logo like this). Not to mention first thing this logo reminds of is Brooklyn Nets.

All the internet haters can complain all they want.. The new Raps jersey with "Durant" on the back would be the best selling jersey in the league! Dont know if DeRozan or Lowry are going to get sales though lol
