ChicagoOakland Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Didn't someone on these boards call that the Sixers' city would be an homage to Rocky's sweatshirt? I mean...it looks like a sweatshirt, but it also looks ugly as sin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henburg Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 HUGE downgrade for Philly this year. I'm going to really miss last year's set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VandyDelphia Mike Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 The Sixer one would be better if not GFGS, but I dig the minimalist vibe. I do hope that the Pelican one has an alternate court associated with it.

WSU151 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I actually like the heathered look for that Sixers uni, lol. The Pelicans one look like they asked the Jazz for ideas. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I like both of them, but I wish the numbers were centered on the front of the Pelicans' jersey. The Sixers' jersey is a pretty clear reference to the uniforms they wore when they first moved to Philadelphia. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Love the graphic on the Sixers’ jersey, though I think it would be infinitely more effective on a blue garment (edit: as it was on the originals). I’ve always thought that would look excellent as a Patriots’ helmet, too.

NickSixers Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 There should be the flexibility to keep a uniform that is introduced as a "City" one-year design and turn it into the third uniform set. In the Sixers case, it would've been preferable to keep the cream City set from last year as this year's third, dump the current red set, introduce this design on red uniforms for the City, and then do these gray ones as the "Earned" set and ride them into the playoffs if you want the whole fighting/Rocky marketing campaign. Same thing could've been used to keep the Jazz's sunset unis while still achieving Nike/NBA's goal of new uniforms each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFallenHaveRisen Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Sixers appear to be going Rocky Sweatsuit themed for their City Jerseys this year, it's too bad we lost the Cream ones those looked great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFallenHaveRisen Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Aesthetically it wouldn't make sense but if the shorts on the Sixers ones were these but with the word Sixers in the font they regularly use, I'd be on board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimball Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 Okay, I do like this one. Do I think it would look better in red, white or blue? Sure. But, this color of gray isn't THAT offensive to my tastes. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

kimball Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 I don't mind the Pels' City Jerseys that much -- good use of the Mardi Gras colors, though I kinda wish the base color was purple, green or gold instead of white. (SIDE NOTE: I've always hated how the "A" in the NOLA is so boxy. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

Around the Horn Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I mean the new ones aren't bad... but I'm annoyed that they're replacing the beautiful ones from last year. Hopefully they're back as the Earned set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Akronite- Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I thought the Dubs were going to have that jersey in blue. Is that a dark gray? If so, they missed the mark on what could've been a great jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
