Lots of NBA fans watching Game 1 still really missed seeing classic NBA Finals logo on court

Game 1 of the 2019 NBA Finals between the Warriors and Raptors was played in front of an electric crowd at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena.

But a lot of fans watching the game, which the Raptors won, on TV were still bummed out that the NBA no longer has its classic cursive “The Finals” logo on the court, the baskets, or the uniforms.

Instead, its the second straight year of the new boring logo that takes a back seat to the YouTube TV ads in front of both benches.

The cursive “The Finals” logo hasn’t been on the court since 2014 but fans still really miss it as it gave The Finals a special feel to it.

The logos changed in last season:

This is so disappointing. Absolute lack of character and personality. pic.twitter.com/53tluqJ8Pi

And fans still aren’t happy about it:

Compliments of @Michael04Kelly. It just makes it feel more like the #NBAFinals when the logo is on the court. Okay I’m done. Let’s keep this pace up! 🙌🏻 pic.twitter.com/GeKLz0CuLZ

Seriously I miss having #NBAFinals Logo on the courts. It's those little things that get you a big game feeling. pic.twitter.com/53LKNXGzGe

If your arena doesn’t have an oversized championship trophy logo on its court during the NBA Finals, what are you even doing?? pic.twitter.com/Hd29RLUXHx

A little bummed they don't have the NBA Finals logo on the court anymore. I'm so weird in the sense that that's something I even care about.

What’s up with this year’s #NBAFinals logo? Terrible in comparison to past years. Gotta miss the oversized trophy at mid court. #RaptorsvsWarriors pic.twitter.com/QTwptxemHH

Why is there no #NBAfinals logo on the jerseys or on the court? 🧐

I wish they still put the giant Larry O'Brien trophy behind the mid-court logo during the #NBAFinals. pic.twitter.com/tT34y4ywy8

And the Larry O'Brien trophy & #NBAFinals logo not being on the court is disappointing as well. pic.twitter.com/aAbwEtX9yd
