C's Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I didn't even know the Kings were still using the SK, I thought that went away when they changed uniforms in 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracy MidGrady Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Kings should use the cursive wordmark for all their jerseys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xist2inspire Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The Bullets name is so fondly remembered because the Wizards name (and initial identity) was trendy minor league garbage. "Bullets" isn't a great name, but it became elevated when compared to what was chosen to replace it.The team names that get called "minor league" around here sometimes are ridiculous. Let's save phrases like that for names like "Solar Bears," "RubberDucks," "Mad Antz," "Jam," "Everblades," "Kiss," etc. You know, names that actually deserve that criticism. Tradition is the foundation of innovation, and not the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicate Genius Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Kyle Lowry just put this up on Instagram to announce his re-signing with the Raptors. Looking forward to seeing these on the court next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I mentioned a few days ago about the different number fonts on the banners hanging at the Sixers workout facility...now there is a story floating locally about a potential logo adjustment...(not Ben Franklin related).....http://www.crossingbroad.com/2014/07/could-the-sixers-be-making-the-most-minor-tweak-to-their-logo.htmlThis just looks extremely forced. The wordmark doesn't fit in that basketball at all, they should've went with a different rotation of the ball. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to seeing these on the court next season.Loved these jerseys! Great post!That will be definite buy for me next season. Just for nostalgia purposes.A little surprised that Lowry will be using Vince Carter's 15. Unless this is a replica version... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I just realized something. They showed that Raptors jersey being modeled in February or so, and someone here pointed out that there was no NBA logo on the front. We basically we're clued in early on that the NBA logo was moving from the front of the jersey. It's going to look really stupid on throwbacks, though.

jgladding Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 One of the Kings owners was tweeting for uni and logo change ideas for the Kings. They are working it but acknowledge it takes time to do it right. One of the more popular ideas has been a 'Sac Town' alt uni like Portland and Rip City. I think it's a great idea. I think they could experiment a little, purple and black could lend itself to trying out some secondary colors like neon red, green, or orange. At least come up with some concepts and see if anything flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless this is a replica version...According to the tweet the 15 is for the 2015 season, but Amir Johnson will be wearing #15. This will likely be my first basketball jersey purchase ever. Not sure if I should get a Lowry or DeRozan (Valanciunas is a dark horse candidate). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 You guys its a Vince Carter throwback!! Amir Johnson showed up in this retro to confirmed Raptors were bringing these unis back for the 2014-15 season a few months ago. Wake up! Would be no different if Nerlens Noel was wearing a Phila #6 jersey or Rose wore #23 Chicago "cursive" jersey. Chill. http://www.rantsports.com/nba/2014/03/07/toronto-raptors-will-wear-vintage-dino-jerseys-in-2014-15-nba-season/Ps. Interesting no NBA logo on the front though?? Didn't notice this whem Amir wore it, now I see it when Lowry wears it too!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also, you're a little late to the party. The NBA announced the logo would move to the back of the jersey like the MLB when the Hornets unveiled their uniforms.

BadSeed84 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I don't like the 76ers change, nothing was wrong with the basketball in the current one, the lines were accurate unlike the clippers old one (Other then there not being a line in the middle). I mean what other than its a flat view of the basketball instead of it looking round like the other logos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 With talk of potential changes for the 76ers in the 15-16 season, I found the new banners at their training facility to be interesting.......https://twitter.com/MaxRappaport/status/482566913177174016I wonder why Moses Malone's #2 is up there with the retired numbers since it was never retired.
