the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 2)

One you posted is primary. These are secondary, for advertising and such.

yaeh the type treatment is excellent all the way around.

Actually, looks like the one that says "New Orleans" (the one marked WORDMARK) is the primary logo, according to SI:

I like the mockup you reposted better.

More here, from the designer:

I like this one better. More simplified. The crescent and fleur de lis ones are super.

Crescent one kicks major ass. Fleur de Pelis a bit less so, but still neat.

damn I miss the stoner pelican logos I posted a couple weeks ago. wish they were actually real. haha.

they need to play this at every game from now till eternity

tbf pelicans look pretty fierce most of the time

not a huge fan of the logo, but logos change every 10-15 years, names can last 100

really can't wait for the mascot to swallow miniature blake griffins and kobels in its gullet

otm

allstar rosters out, Lee in, Curry and Marc Gasol out

David Lee is the first Warrior since Latrell Sprewell in 1997 to make All-Star Game.

Woooow yah!

Since December 1, Stephen Curry is shooting better on 3-pointers (.478) than Zach Randolph is overall (.477).

Insane

includes like 3-14 or whatever he was last night too. he's playing great, yeah, hard kid to root against

this is pretty great http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/8872264/lakers

Lowe: I watch the Lakers now and think, Basketball really shouldn't be this complicated, even with the Gasol/Howard fit issues.

otm

it looks like Curry will be the greatest 3 point shooter of all time.

Ricky Rubio is what, the 4th best PG from his draft?

tbh curry, gasol, and prob ibaka all should have made the west squad over aldridge. here's hoping Dwight's shoulder keeps him out and at least gasol gets in.

Curry over Aldridge, Gasol over Z-Bo.

Lopez over Bosh in the East.

lmao @ marv snitching on the garden for piping in crowd noise

shumpert has looked really good since coming back?

sacre's that weird dude who's always at the court, comes alone, and cares way too much, but has worked himself into a respectable player that you wouldn't hate taking third

wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait

deng made the all-star game AGAIN?

lmao

lol jord

how could I possibly think he'll be the greatest 3 point shooter ever

i don't know, because you're projecting a young player with a noted injury history to play for 15 more seasons at this level or better? but other than that i see no way that steph curry doesn't become the best 3 point shooter of all time

http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2010/1031/la_g_curry_300.jpg

"how could I possibly think he'll be the greatest 3 point shooter ever?"

I'm saying it "looks like" he'll be the greatest. And it does look like it because he is already producing at a historic level! At 24!

he's missed 2 games this season, the ankle thing looks like a one year problem

right, and there's certainly zero history of a player producing at historic levels at a young age before his career being knocked off that path

from 3? I can't think of any 3 point shooters with that problem. It's not like he's Brandon Roy or Clark Kellogg here.

I mean maybe his ankle limits his career to 8 years or something but you're acting like I'm saying josh selby will be MVP or something

nbatv doing some cool "i love the 80s" type thing atm
