People want to bring it back because 1) It was currently unique in the NBA, and 2) It's what the Hawks had historically worn. Teams shouldn't just change their colors for the hell of it after wearing them for the past 30-40 years. Also, they went to the most overdone color combos in pro sports. Oh, and colors aside, everything about the current uniforms and logos is really bad. I respectfully disagree with their identity being really bad. Also unique doesn't necessarily mean good in my eyes. They might as well have had the bench eating big macs the whole game for promotion.
