Funny how Utah has no black people and they are named Jazz

Milsap might have something to say about that...

But seriously, have you ever made a decent post?

So only black people like Jazz, they moved from NOLA and didn't change their name, lots of teams do that e.g. LA Lakers moved from the land of a thousand lakes, who cares?

Oklahoma City Thunder!!!!!

Oh my god, that awful logo we could see in the pic of the basketball that leaked a couple of days ago is the real deal. Wow, wack name, wack logo, wack roster. Only thing missing right now are some fugly jerseys...

OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER

gosh that's horrible.
This looks like a logo of a soft drink or something like that to me.

Can't wait for 12 more topics with the logo posted!

I agree with that. Dont like the orange at all

by **bowdown** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 8:45 am

I totally agree. looks like a cheap soft drink company logo. and seriously thats the best font they could come up with? it says Thunder in simple white text.

WTF? What does the name "Jazz" have to do with the ethnicity of people? I don't get this!

I liked the Black Red and Gold logo that was posted here... It was different from all the rest...

It seems that they will look like the Bobcats. And the logo seems that was made by a 5 year old kid :S

Really disappointed

It could be a soft drink: Orange Kinley Cola

Goddamn awful.

by **Fitzy** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 10:52 am

I want to add another point, what the hell does this logo have to do with thunder any way, no lighting bolt or storm clouds, just a logo on an orange background

by **Sauru** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 11:17 am

where fucking stupid happens

by **BigGameJames** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 11:42 am

GODAWFUL!!! Can't believe that logo and color scheme was approved! Isn't the goal to sell jerseys and other stuff? This is a damn shame, they got ridd of the Sonics for this mess?? Franchise will be on the move again in like 4 to 5 years, management is a joke. :lol:

by **Sauru** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 12:07 pm

after this and the bobcats i am starting to think the nba is trying to market itself towards complete idiots

So I was wrong. The logotype combinations are terrible, and I don't understand the connection with the logo and "Thunder." It has no meaning other than being a basketball in a shield with a couple swooshes.

I still find it very plain, very generic. I could see them updating it within a few years.

by **Oznogrd** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 12:50 pm

even like a hammer of thor could be made into thunder...gotta say i have no artistic ability and coulda done better than this. However Thunder is a sorta of abstract concept. Its a sound wave so how do you make a visual representation of that?

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 12:52 pm

You pretty much have to go with a bolt of lightning.

That too, though it doesn't lend itself to a logo quite like a lightning bolt.

by **GoHornets** on Thu Sep 04, 2008 1:18 pm

First time I saw it, I thought it was the secondary logo... unfortunately, I was wrong... Damn! what a ridiculous logo :-x
