Kinda old news here, but 4 NBA teams have altered some visual aspects of their teams. The Jazz, Cavs, and Magic have slightly changed a few things, while the Golden State Warriors have turned it inside out. Let's start out with the minor changes.
Utah Jazz: As you can see above, the Utah Jazz still have the same nonsensical logo (Utah Jazz?), but instead of changing the whole name, they decided to simply "throwback" the color scheme. The former light and navy blue, is now blue, green, and yellow. Not bad, but I still preferred the former. The real bright spot is the secondary logo, the musical note. It's nothing new, but it's good to see it back in use.
Orlando Magic: Nothing major at all here. In fact, I find it a little stupid. A few years back, the Magic changed from their Penny Hardaway/ Shaq/ Tracy McGrady jerseys, to the current pinstriped jerseys you see now. The logotype on the front of the jersey changed, but the logo stayed the same. Now they seem to realize that things don't match up, and have straightened things out. The magical basketball meteor thing is still in place, so good move, but a few years late Orlando.
Cleveland Cavaliers: So you may not see anything different with this "improved" logo. But a simple google search will show that "a deeper wine and brighter gold" are featured. Indeed the gold is definitely prominent. And guess what? I actually like it! It simply looks better, it pops more, and just seems to fit better. This is actually a minor change that is well done.
Golden State Warriors: Finally, the overhaul of the group. No more of the creepy generic "Flash" character. Nope, they are going back to the widely popular "The City" colors, with a new set of logos. There is no trolly car, but the bay bridge is featured, and the players number will be inside the logo, like the old uniforms. Stephen Curry won't have to be embarrassed any more, the Warriors are respectable again, even if it's just from a aesthetic perspective.
