    To be clear, fellas, I'm just explaining. We should have had the post out. I'm just thrilled folks are interested.

    Post written, morning publication, just an analysis.

    And I made a choice about delaying. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm in no way upset, but I don't blame anyone who is.

    From the comments section of the article (not sure who this is or how legit the statement is)

    I can tell you its out of The Krewe & The Pelicans, I have a good friend that works at the league office in New York City and they are a reliable source. While they wouldn’t confirm which name it is, the brand has been finalized. Public announcement should be happening sometime during the season, they hinted that the logo looks very generic.
    If this is true then Krewe is still in play. I am down.

    Very interesting. I'm ok with Krewe but I hope the logo isn't "generic".

    And gray with the Krewe name.... doesn't fit imo.

    Yea i agree with that. If the rumor of gray is true i am thinking its most likely pelicans. If it was Krewe i would be expecting "Mardi Gras" type colors.

    And with a name like Krewe the logo definitely shouldn't be generic. Here we associate "Krewe" with Mardi Gras. Most things associated with Mardi Gras are anything BUT generic. Are we talking Brooklyn Nets kind of generic? I guess we shall see.

    I still think Carnival is a better mardi gras name than Krewe.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    I know the name is not ours originally, but can we just keep it the same


    especially if "New Orleans Pelicans" is the leading candidate right now. that is GARBAGE

    As stated many times BENSON already said he wants a change. It's his team and his millions so he will do what he wants. It appears what he wants is a name change so keeping Hornets seems highly unlikely at this point.

    Hopefully it's not gray and black. Maybe gray with something else

    I heard from someone on here that it could be gray and light blue.
