Thunder is growing on me a name.
Their logo is reminisant of the Pistons color scheme during the hideous period when they changed them completely to market Grant Hill.

I think the name and logo are both really stupid. Ugh.

The logo is horrible. Looks like taken out from the 80's. If they wanted 'Thunder' to be the name, should've just taken the Lightning Gun logo from Q3Arena, lol. ;P
Craptacular team.

Yeah, the colour scheme isn't that much different.
As for "Thunder", pfft. Embarrassing.

That logo is horrendous. I've already mentioned my thoughts on the name (lame). It won't matter much because the people of OKC are going to love them anyway, but it certainly doesn't shed the notion that this isn't a team that can seriously compete with the likes of the large market teams. That logo wouldn't even cut it in the WNBA or MLS.

You guys are way too fussy. Thunder is good. Thunder is loud and awe inspiring and indiginous to Oaklahoma. It doesn't offend anyone except perhaps Zeus. Come to think of it, he would be a good mascot. The logo and colors are a bit retro which is in nowdays. I think, like Pants says, it will grow on you.

After I posted my last comments I went over to RealGM and cruised the Oaklahoma Thunder forum.
I am definitly in the minority. Everyone there hates it as well.

It's horrible. I can hardly stand it.
Massive Fail on both the name and logo.

I heard that they were originally going with black and gold - like real gold, not "Steelers colors". That could have been sweet.
These colors are horrible. I was reading a ticker today that said "Oklahoma City reveals name.... Colors are blue, yellow, and reddish-orange. "Reddish-Orange?" If your color doesn't even have a real name, that's a sure-fire sign it's not a good choice. If it was a color worth wearing, somebody would have come up with a name for it by now.

E wwwwww.
So are they planning on sending them down to the D-league so that their name and color scheme fit in?
It's actually quite relieving to know that other teams make worse decisions than the wolves do.

Chuck Norris once challenged Lance Armstrong in a \"Who has more testicles?\" contest.
Chuck Norris won by 5.

How long do you think it will be before OKC gets a new logo? It looks like the logo for a low budget sports league, not an actual team.
At least if the Wolves had actually gone with that Kevin Love prototype jersey, we would only have been the laughing-stock of the league for two weeks.

You'll see the Thunder when they step out on the court and crush your team.....not.
