KHA KHA KHA :lol
I'd love to see this league succeed. With the proper financial backing and fan support, it could be a great alternative to D-League/Europe.
I hope nba tv will air the games or some network...

Dope logo and name.
[QUOTE=WeGetRing2012]Dope logo and name.[/QUOTE]
Seriously, this is my new favorite team in ANY league.
Also, the only other team with logo I could find is this one, and it's not bad either!!

If I make a team, I'll e-mail all of you from my igloo.
interesting, what's next? Mexican hockey league?
I have always been surprised that Canada didn't even have a decent league. Not even US players would consider it and would prefer to bolt to Europe.

You didn't know that basketball was created by a canadian between 1900-1910?
and also:

Dalembert too

i wouldnt mind paying a fair amount to watch a competitive game, the arena is like footsteps from the casino

How is the D-League a legit alternative for anyone that wants to be able to earn a living? The max salary in D-League is $30,000. Minimum salary in D-League is $18,000. The average salary in D-League is said to be about $24,000. It's barely even a semi-pro league.
The D-League is a freaking joke. Players can't earn a living there.
The D-League is not, and never has been, a legit alternative to playing in Europe, where the salaries are exponentially higher.

a Canadian that didnt want to live in Canada that is. :lol
[QUOTE=SunsCaptain]seriously that name is awesome :bowdown: forgot this site doesnt take whole quotes >< ....But yeah Rainmen great name, great logo![/QUOTE]
Honestly, if the OKC Thunder had ANY of those team names and logos, it'd be way better than what they currently have.
[QUOTE=SunsCaptain]I hope nba tv will air the games or some network...[/QUOTE]
Not NBA TV. It would give me fear that there's an agenda to eventually merge, so that the NBA can expand more into Canada.
Halifax before Vancouver or Edmonton?:facepalm :cry: :cry:

"Definitely Halifax.....definitely........oh boy!!!!!............."
Still curious what other 4 teams will look like though.

word
What should the name for the team in London, ON? London Rioters?

I think the best hope for this league is to become such a viable option that it merges with the D-League.
With the way the D-League is expanding, something tells me something major is on its way to boost up the league. I've been kinda predicting for awhile now that it would become the alternative around playing college basketball for at least 3 seasons.
The best case scenario for NBL-C is that it becomes the unofficial third-tier basketball league in North America behind NBA and NBDL. Or, more optimal, fourth-tier. We have to see how many attendances they can draw first though.

Yes!
Teams need to get more creative with their names. I cringed when the Thunder announced their name (not to beat a dead horse).
[QUOTE=Rose]Kebs.:banana:[/QUOTE]
It's on, bloke!
AVY BET THAT THE RAINMEN SHIT ALL OVER YOUR F'N KEBS!!!!!

Sweet. I propose we make a thread and each poster chooses a team to follow.
Also, I don't know if this logo is newer or older (I'm guessing newer), but here is a slightly different Kebs logo:
