Its an improvement and really shouldnt be changed anymore.

Nike didn't create the new designs. They make the unis.

Then whoever DID "design" that logo has some 'splainin' to do.

My guess is that they have been probably working on this long before you posted your logo design.

Logo GIF on the Trail Blazers Instagram account is cool. Anyone know how to post it?

 

[BlazerWookee]

Now I'm REALLY pissed.



I wanted so badly to hate it, but in truth, I like it. A lot.

Dammit.

With the original 5 arms of the pinwheel representing the 5 players of each team squaring off, the bar connecting the tips represents the bench backing up the 5 players on the floor.

Each of the lines follow the same trail to the center of the pinwheel and are now connected as an added symbol of teamwork.

I'd wear that logo with pride! New logo for a new era!

 

[B-Roy]

It's sick. Not gonna lie.

 

[Haakzilla]

That typeface sucks.

...agreed! Could have made this much better imho

 

[HolyBackboard]

Makes me miss the OG logo that much more ... sigh

 

[Mediocre Man]

So much better. Kudos


Just please, no more box

 

[The Professional Fan]

So much better. Kudos


Just please, no more box

That gif agrees with you. The transition from the box straight to the new logo almost made me gasp haha...

 

[Chris Craig]

Dammit, the pinwheel isn't running over a laker

I believe the color changes have more to do with the improvement than the artwork. I like the color changes (which could have been done to the old logo). And opening up the lines on the ball end makes it appear cleaner.

However, I would have kept the taper at the beginning of the lines. The tapered lines add an element of movement and energy. The block lines look too bland.

I can live with the new version, just not sold that it is the best they could do. I will give them credit for making some improvement. But maybe they went one step too far away from the traditional old version.

I wish they had used the old school font. Just change it to have capital P, T, and B letters....

It's dope. Took what the clippers were trying to do and made it better.

Damnit you're right. It's almost the same font as the Clips.

ugh

 

[Orion Bailey]

NO its not. I see it as pretty different font.
The P's have tails in the Clippers font for one.

Where's the rest of it?

 

[BBert]

If that's real, then hell yes.

Take out that damn silver/grey piece of shit color.

I believe it was pewter. As in pee-yew-ter.

 

[BBert]

It's an improvement over the current pewter tilt and taper that's for sure.

It would have been even better if the lines weren't boxed in on both ends.

 

[BBert]

That typeface sucks.

Agreed

Nice try, though.

This Clippers logo is horrible. It looks like the parts left over from a Greg Oden knee operation.

 

[Natebishop3]

It reminds me of something... I can't put my finger on it.... It's better than the old one, but I'm not completely sold.

The typeface is following the trend that the Nets started when they moved to Brooklyn. Now it seems half the league is using some sort of generic slab/sans serif typeface. Off the top of my head I can see BKN, LAC, OKC, BOS, MIL, MIN, DET, IND, TOR utilizing this sort of typeface.

It could very well be that the league wants a more uniform logo across the league so when teams update they're probably using the same marketing firm lol

Edit: I LOVE the updated logo. Granted anything is better than what we had lol
