The only thing I hope for is that the primary just has "Minnesota Timberwolves" around it, and nothing more. :pray:

I can't really think of any teams that use their alternate logo as much as their primary one. Especially ones that look vastly different from each other.

Phoenix does, Portland, San Antonio, Toronto, Memphis I could go on. Look at the current Wolves page and compare the number of times you see the primary logo vs. the secondary one. Plus its not only the teams that use them more, but its the media. Watch SportsCenter during the regular season, and you see them use alternate logos a lot. I actually thought Phoenix changed their logo because thats all I would ever see.

I found the new "Minnesota Timberwolves" text for our main logo!

http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/promoti ... weeps.html

Very similar, just not so cartoonish.

Also notice the white in the logo. This promo just started today.

Could this be the new logo? They said subtle changes to the wolf's head.

Is it just me or does that wolf look meaner?

I like the new font! Didnt expect much from the new primary, we were told it would be minor changes.

The jerseys are going to be the big thing....

Either that or he got hit in the face with a snowball.

I know the changes were going to be small but this small?

Now i gotta think the uniform changes are going to be very small

Crap. That looks stupid, just like I feared.

The thing with primary and alternate logos is that they usually compliment each other well. These clearly look like different styles, the update makes no sense.

The font is ok though.

If they are going to keep the old logo, I would much rather it look closer to this
(Very quick and rough concept, but you get my drift)

I also think he looks meaner though I have to say that I expected something different... not bad IMO since I always liked our logo but I expected something different.

I think its likely still just an alternate. Most teams have multiple alternates, and the primarys usually have the team name as well. None of these are the primary logo.
