Maybe if they called themselves the Riverers, or Oceaners they'd be cool eh?

Lakers would be retarded too if it wasn't an iconic name in sports. I used to think the Heat was a ridiculous name but that's chilled out since they've been relevent and talked about. The Thunder will probably sound a lot less stupid twenty years from now if Durant/Westbrook bring some hardware in.

That's kind of the point though isn't it? Most team names are ridiculous if you think about it.

I agree. Especially in the NBA.

**R-Star** · 12-05-2012, 02:56 PM

Yea, NBA is probably the worst. Especially because of relocation.

Vancouver Grizzlies? Sure, I guess. They have them there. Memphis Grizzlies? Nope. That's just stupid.

That deadspin article is hilarious.

**RollWithEm** · 12-27-2012, 09:04 AM

I saw some user-made logo possibilities that are pretty nice.

**Geaux Tigers** · 12-27-2012, 05:39 PM

The name is starting to grow on me. I have been a major supporter of the Hornets changing name and colors since they came to New Orleans, and I really think this will help properly market the team. The logo that girllovesthegame has in her avy is actually pretty cool. I hope they don't make it like a cartoon!

Formal announcement and logo reveal tomorrow.

**RollWithEm** · 01-23-2013, 01:46 PM

Colors are blue, gold, and red? Did you get the leaked logo already?

**Dissonance** · 01-23-2013, 05:32 PM

I came across this. Supposedly leaked.

BobStackhouse42 · 01-23-2013, 06:50 PM

Not bad

**Dissonance** · 01-23-2013, 07:25 PM

Agreed.

I bet the team text/script will add to it.

**RollWithEm** · 01-24-2013, 05:27 AM

Where did you find that? I'm a little on the fence. That logo doesn't evoke any emotion in me one way or another.

**R-Star** · 01-24-2013, 05:29 AM

I agree its not bad. I'd wear it if I were a fan.
