Just stop Nike, that is not the reason for this abomination 

 

Orlando Magic
The edges of light bordering our universe reveal a vastness greater than our imagination. Emblematic of the desire to achieve more, the Orlando Magic City Edition uniform is the will to break boundaries, push our outer confines and find something greater than our individual selves. Go higher. Go farther. Go deeper. Be limitless.

Excellent!

it won’t show directly because I’m in phone, but the point will still be made.

Oh no, the wordmark *and* numbers are at an angle?  <_<  I'm sure they'll come up with some Nikespeak about how the angle matches the angle surveyed by Benjamin Banneker, or some such.  EDIT:  oh, it might just be the odd angle of the jersey in the photo.

 

Meanwhile, I (still) challenge the board to find an NBA jersey in history with more letters on the front.  I don't care how small they made the font; that word mark is too busy.

I found it interesting that the Lakers want to make the City Edition the ‘Lore Series’ to honor their stars. They certainly had enough to last them for a decade or so. No other has a nickname that’s as iconographic as Kobe though, Will be interesting to see how they design a Jersey for them

According to the Nike article, all 30 teams will get a new city edition uniform every year?

 

That's a bit over kill isn't it?

 

NBA fans won't go for changing all the jerseys every year, a la European soccer, so this is the next best thing. But no, there certainly are not enough strong ideas to make this work.

Lakers almost went with a bunch of crazy concepts including their own sunset-themed uniform too!!?? Wow.

 

Sounds like they wanted something to invoke the nightlife, and a bunch of other concepts that they might bring back next year like the uniform from this cover.

The Clippers’ City uniform commemorates the 40th season since they moved to the state. Of course, the LA Clippers began playing in San Diego. 

 

So...

I’m just glad that they brought back the light blue and orange. 

 

Not sure why the Knicks haven’t revealed theirs yet, but alas, there’s no firefighter jacket-like stripe going around like I hoped

I tend to think so, especially as I noted a page or two back that the Jazz are looking to extend their city uniform an extra year.

The Blazers really knocked it out of the park with theirs, IMO. Dr. Jack plaid, Rip City wordmark, Portland city flag on the waistband, side stripes inspired by the stripes in the city flag, etc. I’m biased, but I think it’s easily one of the top 2 or 3 City edition uniforms.

Love that they got 3 white sails on the short as a nod to the old San Diego Clippers logo. Plus the orange is nice too

The wordmark is the only thing I even like about the jerseys. 

 

Looks like a tank top I can buy in a five pack at Target. Not enough colour.
