WSU151 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 41 minutes ago, Derek94 said: 72 wins was two years prior where the stripes versions debuted. They 'slumped' to only 62 wins in Jordans last year with solid black. Something doesn't make sense. 72 wins was in 1995-96. This Jordan (clearly wearing pinstripes) vs. Kobe clearly wasn't 95-96, and judging by the gold NBA patch, it was 96-97. So how many years did the pinstripes last? I think 95-96 (72 wins) = red and white 96-97 = red, white, and black pinstripes 97-98 = red, white, and black with no pinstripes. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The black pinstriped uniforms debuted in '95/96, with the regularly colored NBA logo, and were then worn again in '96/97, except with the gold NBA logo for the league's 50th anniversary. They switched to the non-pinstriped (and greatly inferior) versions for '97/98, and those only lasted for that one season. Sadly, every new regular black alt they've introduced since '97/98 have been devoid of pinstripes, despite their enormous popularity for the two seasons they were worn, and still today.

'95/96: But if the material irritated Jordan and Pippen so much, it's odd they continued to wear them multiple occasions the second year. Smart is believing half of what you hear.

Rockstar Matt Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 The 96/97 picture still has the pinstripes. Look closely at Jordan's left leg. It's still there. Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic, Sonics, Suns, and Knicks are the opponents that I can confirm since I've seen actual game footage of those 4 road games. I believe the other 4 road losses (Raptors, Heat, Pacers, and Nuggets) occurred while wearing their red primaries. i heard that the pacers beat them twice that year, could be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the only team to beat them more than once during the regular season. https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/CHI/1996/splits/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okcsooner35 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Additional confirmation from an OKC scribe that the Thunder are dropping the Sunset "OKC" alternate. Additionally, looks like the Thunder are adding two alternates next year to complement their white home and Oklahoma blue away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmatt116 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 You guys go 3 pages with the Bulls pinstripe and nobody mentions this? These are my ALL TIME favorite NBA jerseys any era! The Font! The colors! The team wasnt half bad too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be cool to see a navy uni with predominantly-orange accents (and a little white thrown in as well). Let's hope there won't be a yellow alternate uni, lol.

While the Miller era jerseys embodied 90s Striping (and probably rightfully stayed there,) this was such a downgrade for me from the FloJo jerseys. I see why many like them, because they combine many different basketball uniform elements that work. But they mashed like 4 of them together, which was a visual equivalent of mixing 4 different fountain sodas. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
