I dig the rebrand, but to me it's always been weird that NY and LA have two teams, because you know there's always going to be one that's way more popular than the other. Most fans pick a team because it's their city. Well, if you've got two teams in a city, most fans are going to pick the one that has a bigger history of success.

Clips fan since '06. Any new logo was going to be sight for sore eyes. This is the first logo in the teams history that leans into the name. Got folks that were grown that didn't know a Clipper was a ship so when I called the G-League team the Canoes, they were confused. The C logo without the boat in the middle has the biggest potential IMO

I’m your resident Clippers fan here, Kenny. It’s awesome. It gives me those vibes of that old San Diego Clippers logo with the sails. I wish we would have moved to San Diego because SD only has one prominent professional team.

They better win something with all this money they spending 😂😂😂😂

Every day we get away from the simplistic nba the better. Tired of nba teams being like "we need a logo. Well our letter are LA and C so done"

The sad thing is Brooklyn was on the way of becoming a fun organization again. That team with Dlo, Levert, Allen, Harris, dinwiddie and Jared Dudley. Now they weren’t a contender obviously but the aura around the them was fun and exciting. Watching the bench celebrate and seeing the crowd actually root for them. It’s sad they gambled their cap space on Kyrie and KD, 2 stars who aren’t about franchise loyalty and were plagued by injuries.

Logo looks like it belongs in the MLS, which isn't exactly a good thing, jerseys fire tho

I will say nets fans showed up when we were good and had kd, kyrie and even sometimes could be heard in msg when playing the Knicks. But rn this is the most miserable ass situation in the nba and u couldn’t catch me dead going to a nets game this year, any team can fill up the Barclays rn. I struggle to watch them on tv let alone go to a game and I’m a diehard fan lol

It looks dope as hell and it will fit well in their new arena

I agree the current logo is ass but cmon, there are older ones that are better than this new stuff looking like a pop up clothing brand run from someones garage.

The logo is solid as an alternate logo but as the main one it’s kinda ass honestly. Also the court looks too much like the wizards imo

Logo: Awesome, instantly a top 10 logo in the league Jerseys: Love em, they listened to the fans and brought back the red ones. Court: It looks cool, they actually have the nautical coordinates for the stadium I believe at the bottom that's really cool. Also to touch up on the "light the beam" chants that same thing happened when they played the Lakers last year. Kings fans travel will in California

As a clips fan, this a dream come true been wanting a rebranding. The emphasis on naval ships was just what I hoped for. Hope our team grows into sum other fans could enjoy watching as well.

New jerseys are solid, but to be fair most base nba team jerseys are not that exciting. Hope they can do some wacky shit with the city edition jerseys

Might be the biggest W in Clippers history 😂

I love all of this! I'm excited for next season to see all those new jerseys and the court and the dome!!!

Never seen your channel before, but I like that you talk about more than just the game, but also business, social implications, etc. Great commentary, subbed

Minimalistic logos make a lot of sense, when you consider the sort of stuff it gets printed on. I would say something about it being a circle, but circle logos for NBA teams make a lot of sense because of the logo branding you can fit in the middle of the stadium's court

It was loooouuuud in LA after that kings win. Hear a lot of “light the beam” chants on the road these last 2 years but that one was certainly louder

Love new logo and unis. At first glance it looked like the crosshairs of a scope. Looks much better than the generic Clipart LAC logo.

Just reminds me of the the mid / late 90s Clippers jerseys which is an interesting time to harken to

As a clips fan I love it. Our logo now looks like the paper clip that used to help on Microsoft Word when I was a kid.

I like the Clips rebrand a whole lot. And I’m a Lakers fan. I absolutely hate the current Lakers purple unis with the black down the side. Idk how you fuck up the most iconic jersey in the sport.

they finally went back to that cursive font, reminiscent of before and during the lob city era.

That white jersey is super clean. I actually like the blue one more than the red. The red one seems a little too saturated or something, kinda wish the script had a white outline.

the lack of a white outline is definitely the only thing holding the jerseys back. they would be SO clean if there was an outline

to me it just kinda feels like a Navy logo or something like that

I'm glad they're going all-in on the nautical theme, gives them an identity outside of "the other team in LA"

I love it. Never even knew that a Clipper was a boat before today. It will just take some getting used to.

The new logo is better than the current won, and the jerseys are the best in this franchise’s history

I'm a Clippers fan. (Ignore the pfp. It's a meme). I'm so excited for the Clips to have their own stadium! I was saying they needed that since before it was planned. Plus, l love the rebrand. Maybe the jerseys and court more than the logo, but nonetheless, a rebrand felt nice. It would be such a perfect storybook ending if we finally did it next year! Because, tbh I think that regardless this year is too soon but next year is possible.

New logo is trash, an ugly cruise ship in the middle of crosshairs

As a Nets fan, everything you said about them when it comes to stars not wanting to come to Brooklyn because of what went down with Durant, Irving, and Harden, I 100% agree with and feels very true.

Those black Los Angeles Statement jerseys are still fire. Feels like the new red took all the great elements from that

I'm sick of these circular logos man, so lazy

Like the rebranding but definitely need to work on the logo. I can’t tell if the old one or the new one is worse

One thing with small market fans, they are some of the most critical but loyal fans out there. tbh if I was at that game last night I would have been chanting light the beam too after watching that performance against the kings lmao. As a Clipper fan this rebrand is a huge w, super excited to get my hands on some gear. Steve has doubled the value of the franchise over the course of his ownership, which has been huge for the organization as a whole. Despite the setbacks and injuries, the future is bright for the org.

I liked the old logo, and the special one they had with crewnshaw skate club

I like your take Kenny! I've done a deep dive video on this new logo as well and I agree that it has some good bones but I think there are way too many concepts cramped into one monogram. The rest of the assets look decent though. @Brand2Thrive

call me a hater but if you showed me the logo without the text and asked me what it was for I would say "a cruise company? maybe Carnival cruise because of the C?" absolutely nothing about it reads sports logo to me- and even worse, it reads as a completely different industry. Uniforms look sick tho

"Colour on colour" often looks weird without "outline/trim/border". Red font on navy/navy font on red woukd look better with with outline Sad they make kits like games with "5 slot" limitations - it's either "first idea" or "quit halfway through good idea".. 😂

Since its a naval vibe. They need the hugh hefner design flat caps. Those would be hard with gold accents on them.

Missed you bro!!! Love your videos

I like the rebrand, agree about the logo but overall I love the vibes of the new logo and wish they leaned a bit more into the coastal aspect for the jerseys.

I absolutely love the jerseys but I don’t really get the logo. Like I can’t tell what it is 😂😭.

The Los Angeles Carnival Cruisers🤡🤡🤡

Brooklyn is part of NYC. The Knicks play in Manhattan which is also NYC

best thing for a clippers rebranding would be moving back to SD and having a city of their own. same with the having the whole state of NJ to themselves

Red ones are a 10/10 and white jerseys are a solid 8/10

Let’s go!! Kenny covering the Clips! 🧍🏻‍♂️🧍🏻‍♂️

I like the New Jerseys, and the new logo reminds me more of a baseball logo (probably just cause it looks like the Mariners logo) but I do like it, and I think it’ll grow on me

Minimalist logos may get a bad rap, but as a graphic designer, its just easier to use in the digital age when it comes to using it in multiple methods as a simple vector. Logos are a painting, theyre a symbol for a brand.

I love the jerseys and the script logos, but the ship logo like a Newport Beach yacht club logo.

I think I would like the Clippers logo better if the compass crosshair was at more of angle. I think that would go hard. Not every logo has to be perfectly symmetrical and profile pic friendly.

I like them leaning into the aviation thing it separates then a lil bit more from other teams

The red one kinda looks like a wizards jersey

A win on multiple fronts: 1.) The full removal of the Clippers brand from the Sterling era: Those cheap looking fonts are gone. The branding is gone. Everything that reminds the fans of Sterling except the team name is gone. I truly don't think I need to say much more than this. Moving onto... 2.) The focus on the actual namesake, the Clipper (a kind of navy ship): It gives the club some semblance of identity. Perhaps their new mascot has some kind of synergy with this, like a sailor. 3.) The refocusing on navy as the base of the color scheme: For too long, everything, including the logo, seemed to try and be a poor-mans Lakers, which is also being rectified with a new, personalized arena. No longer will they be the second most popular team in their own building, let alone the city. By focusing on navy instead of white or red, something really seems unique about the Clippers. Which that brings me to... 4.) The name: Internal studies had shown that despite all of the pain and misery the franchise has provided the fan base, the Clippers was something that stuck, so much so that according to said studies, any name change would have brought a violently negative reaction. So it shows that yes, even though they technically don't have to do anything that the fans want, and they would have every excuse in the world to change the name that has been so far synonymous with nothing but failure, they didn't. Because that's what the fans wanted. That leads perfectly into the final point: 5.) Building the fan base for the future: The actual connection with the fans is important here in establishing an identity. Whereas the Lakers are Showtime, bright lights, glitz and glamor, stars at every game, the Clippers can do well to market themselves to a more blue-collared, Everyman type of person, particularly as the country continues to become more inhabited by immigrants who may not be able to afford to go to Lakers games. TLDR: The Clippers are doing everything right to distance themselves from being the Lakers little brother with this rebranding, and I like it.

I hope the future of NBA logos is more of the consulting firm aesthetic.

the blue and red jerseys could benefit from white outline on the script lettering

NBA inter-city rivalries would be so much better if they made a way to limit the amount of away fans that can attend games. Either split the home and away fans, stop websites like seatgeek and sell tickets on the team websites or something like that. You’ll never see this happen in a football/soccer game for this very reason

The navy blue jersey with the red writing is so nice imo. That’s the one I’d get if I want a Clippers jersey for some reason

Those red jerseys are nice.

kenny so real for mentioning the old logos, that early 10s milwaukee bucks deer being gone for the foreseeable future still stings, same goes for the old grizzly and the old hawk for atlanta. the rebrand is okay, the logo make the clippers look like a ruise ship operation which is kinda funny, i thought the dark blue jerseys looked the coolest out of the bunch but to each their own mister kenny 🫡

I'm onboard with everything but 7:35 you say the clippers haven't been competitive enough to go for a chip, what would you call 2021 and getting to the WCF?

On a side note,the "Clipper" name doesn't even make sense for LA as much as it does for San Diego,where they used to play. But I understand why they wouldn't change it atp

I like the unis a lot. Look clean and CLASSIC. The new logo is fine.

The Nets comments Kenny made is so true, it hurts as a Brooklyn Nets fan how bad the front office fumbled KD, Kyrie & Harden…

The blue Clippers text over red background without contrasting shadows or borders is a crime in design. Easy to fix though.

Went to the Clippers/Celtics game right before Christmas. Saw more Celtics fans than I’ve seen walking around Boston
