I like it.

you know after seeing this NBA Mascot Pictures On KOL Sports, our mascot isnt so gay.

[CCOKC]

I agree. He definitely has the potential to be one of the best mascots in the NBA. I think it is cutomary for the teams to have a mascot themed game where the other mascots show up. I know Hugo had a "birthday" party when the Hornets were here. That is when we got to see the other mascots up close. My favorite besides Hugo was Bennie the Bull from Chicago but then he got into a little legal trouble. I guess he got a little carried away.

Yes it's the same person.

What's he been doing all season?

[kevinpate]

Rumble doesn't stumble at all, not compared to most of the bumbles and fumbles out there

[jbrown84]

Having looked through those pictures, we definitely have one of the least cheesy mascots.

What's he been doing all season?

picking out fur colors for the mascot and looking at child's drawings of bison?

I think Toronto and New Orleans have the best and the Knicks have one of the worst.

[OKCMallen]

Wow, I am pretty proud of Rumble after looking at those.

Knicks don't have a mascot. For some reason, they included the New York Liberty (WNBA) mascot. Celtics also dropped the leprechaun this season, fwiw.

[CuatrodeMayo]

Wow. Way less ghey.

[Zoom Zoom]

Whoa. Some of those mascots are just scary...

[Doug Loudenback]

I think that Rumble is great, without any reservations (particularly if you've had a look at other NBA teams' mascots which, almost uniformly, are mickey-mouse kinds of cartoons). I, Doug Dawg, have expressed my opinion and have welcomed him with open arms at Doug Dawgz Blog: The Legend of Rumble.

A few of the pics there are shown below:

I agree...after looking at those pictures, Rumble isn't so bad! Even if he looks like Teen Wolf. Now hopefully he can improve his dunking skills, although he was very entertaining!

so the (team)thunder is not about thunderstorms, but more about the sound that bison make as they rumble thru the plains is this true ?

[kevinpate]

possibly, but possibly both.

However you prefer to envision it, the thunder shakes you, rattles your surroundings, holds your attention, and serves to remind you of what was once right before you, before it swiftly moved on.

im cool with rumble i was there doing the lakers game when he sprayed our section with his fully automatic t-shirt gun. then this little girl came out and outdanced him and started flipping ..then in the end she gave him the talk to the hand

Or according as Clay Bennett described the unveiling of the jerseys, the Oklahoma Sunset.......nothing makes me think if thunder like a beautiful Oklahoma sunset.

[jbrown84]

NO METRO. He mentioned the sunset when talking about the orange color in the logo/jersey.
