    This morning the Brooklyn Nets unveiled their new logo. It leaked a few days ago but these are official from the Nets.

    I gotta say that being from Brooklyn, I'm really excited. I will forever be a Knicks fan but to have a professional franchise here is surreal. I will root for the Nets when I can. Definitely going to be going to games all the time and wish them well. I can't wait for September when the jerseys are released.

    It's very simple and straight forward. Just like Brooklyn. It's classy, I like it.

    As not a Nets fan, those logos look awesome. Are they planning on switching away from the red white and blue color scheme? And are they still going to be the "Nets"?

    I love it. I love the colors and the schemes.
    Its refreshing to see a team come out with a new look and not have awful colors and designs.

    That's sick, the pictures of the apparel look awesome. If I was a fan, I would be buying so much stuff right now haha. Nice simple color scheme

    I must be missing something, everywhere I read and everyone I talk to love the logo but I hate it.

    Its personal preference. Think about if you like any logos in the NBA and compare it to the new one.

    Just curious, did you like the old logo/color scheme?

    I didn't love the old logo but it was ok. I love the old ABA uni's they wear w/ the stars on side.

    To me black and white is kind of boring, the font on the B isn't anything special. I don't like overly colorful uni's but I'd like some color.

    Yeah I understand, I like the simplistic tone again its just personal preference. The uniforms will be interesting, I think there must be another color besides black and white on the uniforms, probably silver so going Raiders color scheme I would guess

    Haha good call. I thought raiders immediately when I saw the color scheme, didn't even think of NBA teams

    I'm usually someone that prefers a more plain, simple look but with this idk. The NETS across the top screams default font and the plain black and white is kind of bland. That said, although not my style, this merch is gonna kill it in sales. A plain black and white fitted with "BROOKLYN" on it is gonna be a huge sell.

    I really like it. I'm a huge Knicks fan and I hope that a rivalry can be developed between the teams.
