upperV03 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 ^Yeah, no kidding. Some of what Nike has done has been pretty silly, but none of it compares to the sleeve garbage that Adidas pushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The L looks like it's stabbing the A, and the S is angled oddly relative to other letters and isn't really attached. The present wordmark is so much cleaner and better.

(The bronze paying homage to the “golden era” of basketball Kareem played in) something silly like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone wants to give :censored: to adidas for the sleeve jerseys, which I didn't like either. But adidas didnt force a template that changed the look of all teams. They always didnt force this nike locker statement city blah blah crap. You had home , road, and alternates. Regardless if a team chose to wear an alt at home or on the road more so than the standard , it was still a teams decision to what they wore. Now teams are forced to wear a uniform based on a schedule. Lakers should never have been forced to wear yellow on the road, especially against a white jersey team.

Gothamite Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Exactly. If they really wanted to make a “Magic tribute” uniform, that wordmark would have been a good place to start.

I don't believe Nike forces teams to wear certain uniforms, i think they work with the teams to create the schedule and enforce it, but aren't making the decisions for the teams.

You're right - the NBA has to share equal blame with Nike, for agreeing to the uniform schedule. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
