Teletopez Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 (edited) http://www.nba.com/nets/media/35year_ts_111202.jpg We’re back! The season is scheduled to start on Christmas, and though everyone is excited for next year’s move to Brooklyn, we’re ready to celebrate the 35 years we’ve spent here in New Jersey. As you can see while browsing the site, we’re honoring the franchise’s lengthy history as the “New Jersey Nets” in this final season. Like the slogan says: “Jersey Strong, Brooklyn Ready.” The 35th-Year Commemorative Logo – which you’ll see positioned prominently all season long – is a montage of the team’s past marks, derivative of the current shield in overall form and shape while incorporating the lowercase “nets” script, the state silhouette and multi-colored basketball of earlier iterations. Celebratory ribbons at the base of the logo call out the first and final years of the team’s stay. That branding extends to the site design of NJNets.com, which is founded upon a commemorative collage made up of historic, New Jersey-specific elements, including tickets, photos, banners and more. Featured will be 20 of the team’s top players, who appear individually throughout the ticket book sent to season-ticket holders, creating a memento for attending fans. Content on each game’s featured player will appear in the nightly program, and he’ll be showcased on in-arena highlight reels. NETS Basketball will be celebrating with the community via six “County Nights” at the arena. Each of the team’s most loyal fan outposts will be recognized during a game that features pre- and post-game activities, as well as integrated entertainment provided by local schools and groups, including anthem singers, dance teams and band performances. Also, history buffs should be on the lookout for “Decade Nights” that play off that game’s opponent and honor the great players and teams of that era.
