Worst NBA mascot....

[SAtown]

I always thought he was pretty cool. A little scary too.

I agree. Even though he has nothing to do with a supersonic (same with the PHX gorilla), I've always liked the mascot.

I think the Magic dragon is pretty stupid, but at least it has to do with the magic kingdom and all that crap. The 76ers rabbit sucks ass though

[lefty]

[cornbread]

Mavs Man >>> Hugo

That is true of the new big gay muppet-style Hugo, but the old Hugo pwned all with his Bug on the Windshield dunk.

I think it has to do with Oregon and the Sasquatch/Bigfoot, so there's your theme right there. Just like the Coyote's southwestern theme.


Though doesn't he look like CHewbacca a bit?? I wonder if George Lucas can sue.

[shelshor]

I thought Cuban got Champ on the cheap from Indianapolis after they rejected it as a prototype for the new Colts mascot

[Kori Ellis]

Even if a gorilla in Phoenix doesn't make sense, The Gorilla is the funniest mascot. I don't like mascots in general because I hate corny stuff. But The Gorilla is cool.

The old gorilla (when I was a kid) was better than the current. But this one is still decent.

[Kori Ellis]

The Gorilla was even in the inaugural class in the Mascot Hall of Fame, along with the San Diego Chicken

I like Hip Hop, he's pretty cool. That thing in Miami sucks though.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

This orange penis thing in Miami sucks pretty hard

lmao

[stretch]

what the is that?

is that supposed to be that star wars guy?

[Spurminator]

My god, these are horrible.

I know they're mostly for the kids, but I'd like to think even a 6 year old would find that Wizards piece of crap corny.

When did they move Seattle to Oregon?

[DarrinS]

If you're from San Antonio, you'll understand this.

[Shank]

I loved it when little kids would totally wipe out the Puffy Taco as he was rounding home.

[DarrinS]

But this one is definitely the gayest

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

oh .

I meant Washington..

Whatever, the Northwest!

Portland should have Bigfoot too!

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Ah yes, Clutch the Pregnant Koala. I know hardcore Rockets fans who aren't sure what that thing is supposed to be.

EXAMPLE


There's a cowboy, a Hippo, a sea lion (or some , the one in the red shirt, at LEAST it looks like an animal), what looks to be an elephant in the background.... then you have some ing blue power ranger looking thing in the middle... WHAT THE !!!!

The Cowboy is relevant because the 49ers are named for the Gold Rush and the 1849ers - which were cowboys.

The Sea Lion is actually a shark, and it's the San Jose Sharks.

The elephant is the Oakland Athletics - it's from the early 1900s where the A's were sarcastically referred to as 'the white elephants' by John McGraw. So, they adopted the logo just to piss him off.

I know, I was saying those are normal mascots, but what the is the blue guy?

[mardigan]

I know its not basketball, but the Albuquerque minor league baseball team is called the Isotopes (yes they named it after the Simpsons), and there mascot is Orbit, the biggest piece of ever

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Yeah, the Warriors mascot is kind of random and weird. If I were running the franchise I hire these guys.

I think most of them are looking for work anyways. Then team intros could start with "Warriors, come out to plaaaayyyyy." And if they ever won the championship just imagine Stern handing over the trophy:
"You Warriors are good, real good."
"We're the best."

[DarrinS]

What teams' mascots SHOULD be

Lakers



Mavs



Suns
(Nash look-alike)

[Tigole Bitties]

Does the H.E.Buddy count as a mascot?

[shelshor]

oh .

I meant Washington..

Whatever, the Northwest!

Portland should have Bigfoot too!

Portland's mascot should be a slacker
