You guys whine about everything. The only negative is that it's similar to Brooklyn's logo. The logo and color scheme itself looks good.

Yeah...I am going to go with the dinosaur humping and biting the ball as the worst.

Its pretty clear that the primary colors are going to be black, silver and red. The gold may be for an alternate or just for T-shirts.

No. Red are the alternates.

It's black/gold/silver.

If that is the case, then why is the black, red and silver logo twice the size of the black, gold and silver logo on the Raptors home page?

Gold is the alternative.

Don't know who is approving of these things.

It's not a tag-line like "we the north" - it's essentially to introduce the logo. Which we won't hear again.

I sure as **** hope so. If I hear that again I might start a sword fight with MLSE.

It's so cheesy that you have to think Drake really was heavily involved. Only he could come up with a tagline as corny as that.

Throw that gold crap out of here. Black/Silver/Red. That is it.

The shape is the same, but as was pointed out earlier, a round logo with the name written in the circle is not exactly something new.

I will say it again...if they hadn't released it in black and white, I don't think anyone would feel like it was ripping off the Nets.

They tried to do some sort of slow reveal and it just completely backfired. lol
People don't want to see rough drafts before they see the end result. They created a lot of buzz but it could have been more positive if they released the colo(u)r version to begin with.

They went from black and white. To Silver and Red. And then released the gold, red, black, silver versions.

Edit: Having said all that. I really liked our current claw.

Drake should be fired for this IMO.

You really think drake has a heavy hand in this and has the final say? They payed sid lee for the rebrand and their the ones coming up with this.

That's terrible as well, alright i'd say it's the 2nd worst..whoever we hired as the creative needs to be fired cause he has no creativity and has definitely copied off of Brooklyn Nets design.

It was more a comment on its cheesiness and how Drake is known for being cheesy. I honestly have no idea or really care about Drake's actual level of input.

I don't like how drake is using the team to promote his **** brand.

He's getting paid to promote the raptors. Guy hasn't even thrown out a Kyle Lowry allstar vote.

I really think the Raps should have looked to go Blue and White. I hate the Leafs, but he Jyas have the same colours too. I really like the idea of uniting the city under a common colour scheme, even if it involves the Leaf colours. I think at this point the franchise has a separate identity so that the whole hockey issue is not really a concern.

Do you like the new logo?
