Thunder Logo?

Is this the Oklahoma City Thunder Logo? at The Lost Ogle

One of the links posted a humor as to what OKC's Pro Football team would be.

"The logo says nothing about the team, the city, or the mascot. All it says is swooshy colors and “basketball.” I just hope the state of Oklahoma never gets a pro football team, I shudder to think what their logo would look like."

Although I am in the group which doesn't particularly like the logo, I must confess I've already forgotten about it. And, in looking at other NBA logos, I'm not sure ours doesn't fit right in. Very few of them are interesting at all. When it comes down to it, were I in Washington D.C., I'd be cheering on the team with the worst name, the silliest logo and the ugliest road uniforms, thinking nothing of it at all. Where's all the uproar about a team named the Wizards, with that ridiculous logo and those disgusting black and gold road unis? If there was any, people have long since forgotten about it. I'm excited about watching NBA basketball in Oklahoma City.

Maybe the Thunder can go talk with the people that designed the OKC Redhawks logo.

Good thought process. The Wizards logo sucks so it is OK for the Thunder logo to suck.

As much as I hate it...I'm getting over it.

I like The redhawks logo an colors

That's the case with at least a third of the NBA logos, but I don't see anyone complaining about those. It's just anti-Oklahoma bias.

I think it is fine. Clay and his team knows what they are doing. They want to give it time to get the feel of how the team is and develop their own identity. The time will come when the right logo will be made. Something like this shouldn't be rushed. They did the best they can for now.
