the name sounds dumb, the logo looks dumb and the idea of clashing with the warriors is just dumb too. according to that steinmetz article, the warriors’ “thunder” is nba approved. i can’t believe the nba would be dumb enough to allow that clash to happen.

I’m for new unisforms and going back to the old basketbal, state of CA and star logo. Some things are just classic and should not have been messed with in the first place!!!

me and tony talked about this one day on here lol. tony when you come back on put that pic you made.

oh my god i thought the name was horrible…until i saw the logo!!

Not that I was expecting a masterpiece… bring back the Sonic’s Uni’s!

Zomg! A dream come true!!!! Man, I never thought this would happen….totally Slammin’, nonetheless. Thanks, Atma!

I’m going to go to the unveiling tomorrow. Hopefully it won’t be this ugly. Check my blog at 5PM if you wanna know!

Anyway, all along, I’ve been a HUGE proponent of not stealing the Warriors mascot. I’m still a Warriors fan first and foremost, and its incredibly stupid to steal another teams trademark. I mean, from another league it’s okay (Cardinals), but in the same league? Ugh. Thunder is definately gonna get his jersey retired on my blog, should Thunder be the actual name.

Anyway, lets hope that that was a working logo, and not the final product. We need Tony.psd to design it, lol!

just goes to show the warriors got no love from the NBA official name-creating crew! haha

Let’s get rid of our Mascot!!!! It’s stupid!

This whole OKC Thunder shit just makes me sick. I’ve heard that both Kemp and Payton have verbally refused to have attend any number retiring that OKC might have in store for them. Shit, Kemp thought it was so wrong that Seattle did have hoops and that Key Area was without any love that he signed up for a recent 3 on 3 tournament at the The Key.

and i thought jerseys in the late 90’s were bad this just makes all things horrible. imagine if a player like mj ro kobe playing in a jersey looking like that that would not make them greatness just clowns! my god who the hell designed that some middle school kid! dam most d league teams have better stuff than that and even better names. lol freaking filipino leagues got better names (talk and text phone pals, red bull, colt 45) dam how could you steal a team and than make them look even crappier is he trying to prove something. poor kevin durant such a great player might turn into one of the best and hes just gonna look like a clown loser:( dam thats so sad. who get a fresh start on a team to do anything they wanted and just makes a lousy idea. come on team that are similar with things they make their team look good like the heat horrible name but done right, lakers, jazz, magic, i don’t get this team why would he buy it and screw it up thats like buying a car than hitting it with a sledge hammer and putting cheap paint on it! who does that?! sucks though the players might get booed for this and they have nothing to do with it.

is going to prevent that playoff drought you were talking about.

went on newsok.com and found out that the oklahoma picked that out of 64 names! i wounder what the competition was because that was horrible were they going up agains names like touchbags, stealers, thieves, rapist, wth thunder! Thunder! THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

i cant put the link up!

well there is the site

guys, I know I’d be crushed if the dubz left and I get it that Seattle fans are bummin’

but

Lakers from Minn, Jazz from New Orleans, Warriors from Philly … and so on it’s part of the business and the fans be damned we just pay the bills … this isn’t a big surprise, so why all the emo? does anyone really care about our roid-rage style mascot?!

also I don’t get is why an expansion team would choose as their team name a mascot from a franchise that was lucky to steal a playoff spot once in a dozen years – that’s not exactly awe inspiring other than theirs lots of thunder storms … which, makes one wonder why they didn’t just pick The Storm?

when they get slammed by the big one?? i liked OKC more as a back up city and i bet the OKC citizens did too haha
