I agree. Ballmer must be surrounded by nothing but yes men plus it seems like he's viewing this like its the new box artwork for the latest version of Windows instead of how a team should look. When you do new unis you got to think of the fans, non fans who just want sh*t cause its hot or it matches their kicks, females, NBA fans overseas, etc. And adding in the black is lazy and cheap as f*ck.Yet another golden opportunity wasted. That's why you have the terms "Same ole Clippers" and whatnot. Think about it we weren't a destination for players for years and we play in Los Angeles of all places:mindblown: Hate to say it but this is "Sterling like". No racism or perverted scandles but the same ole dumb un-explainable sh*t but on a different safer level. wasted wasted wasted opportunities left and right. Its like they're scared to be hot when everybody wants them to be. Like a hot chick that dresses down with no makeup and wears baggy clothing to hide her shape. :mjcry:
Whenever Sterling changed unis, it was an improvement doe. This may be worse than sterling.

I woulda liked black and gold to be the Hollywood knights colors like tge oscars. And have qb gold home uniform like the oscar itself :banderas:

Sh1t woulda been dope:noah:

I hate the red/white/blue sh1t. Too common.

And Ballmer admitted this lil rebranding was decided on in months, not yrs. a true rebrand takes more time. I want to know rhe firm that did this, cuz they deserve public ridicule.

That Hollywood Knights sh1t woulda been piff. Even tho the lakers call their black uniforms Hollywood Nights(i think :lupe:)

I just don't get how its called a rebrand when everything is the same except the logo. They really think adding black is gonna make a difference :what: And the logo is substantially worse. No way they gonna sell this merch. We was laughing at them just giving it away yesterday. They was on the metro, in west la, by sc and other places. Aint nobody outside of rich season ticket holders gonna buy that wack sh1t:scust:

That Hollywood sh1t woulda been really smart, they dont seem too smart after this. Worse logo and uniform in the league. It still blows my mind that this was approved and is proof Ballmer is clueless as a businessman. Tech nerds tried to tell me this when he brought the clips, and I didnt wanna hear it. :mjcry:

If Geffen and Oprah and dem brought the team, u know we would have dope sh1t :noah:
The shame of it all is if they hired an outside design firm to create typographic abortion. I would've loved to sit in on the presentation and hear how the wack ass designers would use phrases like "Our research shows" "Current design trends dictates" when basically they are really saying, "We let our 19 year old, part time design intern from the community college, design this for college credit."

then they should change the name
The Lakers were named after the 1000 lakes located in the state of Minnesota.. should they change their name too? And there's no lakes or body of water in their logo. The Dodgers were named after the Brooklyn residents who would dodge trolly cars when crossing the street but you don't see trolly cars in the Dodger logo. The nautical theme if done to a minimum is cool but anchors and oars is :trash:

lakers and dodgers are more iconic teams. the clippers can afford to reboot since few will care.

5mins on sketchbook using a note. Im not even in design, and cant draw for sh1t, but Im determined to keep fukkin around w/ this.

:whoa: I was just bullsh1ttin brehs, I know this aint better than pro designers, but my goal is to just make sh1t better than the trash that was made. Sh1t was like 5mins. I know if done right, n1ggaz would rock w/ that color scheme.

Im gonna fukk around w/ my Black and Gold Hollywood Knights theme later

Of course the Lakers or Dodgers will never need a reboot or rebrand.. I was just responding to dude saying "you're called the clippers so you should have boats, sails, and anchors in your logo". I was just naming other teams that their logos don't reflect what they're named after and how its not a problem
