2023-24 Running NBA thread

I would've gone more recent, but kept it vintage.

 

I’d have gone a different direction

 

I believe we have a 42 point turnaround in LA. Clippers were up 22, now down 20 with four minutes to go.

Not coincidentally, Kawhi left after the first quarter with back spasms.

 

The new logo looks like an ink-blot test. Couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. And really, I've never been a fan of team logos that have to feature the ball of the sport being played to clue the public in.

 

FWIW, 22 NBA teams feature the ball (or facsimile thereof) somewhere in their logo.

8 MLB teams do.

Only 2 NFL teams do.

 

Says a lot. Always thought the Knicks logo was the worst offender. But then again, what the hell is a Knick?

 

The Coyotes going back to their old logo moves the number of NHL teams that a have a hockey stick in their primary logo to five: Arizona, Washington, Pittsburgh, San Jose and the Islanders.

 

Love … exciting and new …

 

I never saw Gopher, Isaac, Doc or Julie trimming the sails.

 

The weird thing about the Clippers new logo is a clipper is/was a sailboat bult for speed - not a mall on a hull as most cruise ships have become.

 

Pretty nasty (and embarrassing)
