    So you're saying our logo hypothetically got us farther than LMA literally could?


    Yeah, I can agree with that.

    I kind of think it would be cool if there was a rule in sports that teams have to change there logo and uniform every 5-7 years or so. (Without the same logo every other year.) When I say change the logo I don't mean it must be a drastic change just slight to drastic change but it must be a recognizable change.

    Might as well have them rotate home cities too.

    I can picure it now. The Portland Spurs dressed in bright orange and purple.

    With all the talk of the pinwheel being straight up or slanted, have they ever tried mirroring it? It seems like the natural thing to do... It forms a "p" and "d" when mirrored, which is the first and last letter of the team name (city).

    To me the pinwheel represents offense/defense..and it's a perfect mandala with means balance and harmony..great logo
    I like the slanted one best...would like to see a jersey with only the pinwheel centered on the front as an option

    I still think it'd be nice if they put a light colored silver circle around the pinwheel especially in the middle of the Blazers court.

    It'd certainly be better than the black parallelogram.

    While perusing the internet for a new 59fifty Blazers hat I saw this Bucks hat and think it's pretty awesome. I was hoping to find a green Blazers hat, but no luck so far. Might end up getting the Hornets colorway Blazers hat.

    So here is the flaws I see with the Pinwheel that could easily be fixed. It needs to be tilted at 45 degrees to the NW, so Mirrored and rotated counter clockwise a smidge more. and it should be Red and Black again, outlined in silver.
