So odd. Sacramento Kings '85 Los Angeles Lakers '48 Houston Rockets '67 Detroit Pistons '41 Golden State Warriors '46 Brooklyn Nets '12 So is it whatever fits the narrative?

JerseyJosh Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 What’s odd about the Nets is that they keep the Jersey “accolades” which happened before we were “established”. does any other team do that or naa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Era licenses everything from Disney. Disney's not paying New Era for advertising space here. It's like NASCAR hats. Team sponsors like Busch or M&Ms don't pay New Era to make the hats.

If he knows the Knicks, he knows the numbers should be orange. You can kinda see it in his reaction, too. So maybe this is a new alternate...? Smart is believing half of what you hear.

Stu-BallsOmnicorp Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Is anyone else confused by how they chose what flag to put on the draft hats? The Minnesota Timberwolves have the Minnesota state flag, but the Utah Jazz have the Salt Lake City flag and the Indiana Pacers have the Indianapolis flag. Also, all four California teams have the California state flag rather than their respective city flags, which make some sense for Golden State I guess, and the Raptors have the Canadian flag instead of the Toronto flag or the Ontario flag.

It’s all about marketing. A Canadian flag as opposed to a Toronto or Ontario flag makes it easier to sell Raptors hats across Canada. Just like how California flag merchandise is hot right now, so of course all of the California teams are going to try and cash in on that.

Most likely a combination of legalities, team preference, and nuances in each market, for example not using the Minneapolis flag because a good portion of the fans probably live in St. Paul, or not using the Indiana flag because NW Indiana is Bulls country.

Sacramento's is especially annoying since it's by far the oldest team in the NBA. They've been around in some form since 1923. It baffles me they don't want to make that a bigger part of their identity. I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

The Kings have a banner recognizing the Royals' 1951 NBA Championship, and they have that gold tag on the back of their jerseys to similarly recognize that title. They obviously aren't afraid of recognising their roots, so this '85 thing is just weird.

Shadojoker Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 We are 2 weeks away from July and still nothing about any more new uniforms for next year. We know about the throwbacks. I guess I was spoiled by the annual Adidas catalog leak. Edit: just forgot season just ended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
