SDS (The Show) has become just as lazy as EA (Madden-FIFA) when it comes to accuracy and missing throwbacks/throwback alternates. If it's not MUT/FUT (EA) then they don't care. Now with SDS if it's not Daimond Dynasty or the new Story Mode then they don't care. The new Derek Jeter gameplay footage is full of errors. The 2001 Oakland A's are wearing their 2000 black alternates and not the proper Forrest Green moneyball uniforms. Also the 90's Orioles are wearing the current Away uniform and not the proper 90's Away uniform. Also Mark McGwire is seen in the Kingdome wearing the new A's Kelly Green Fauxback. SDS refuses to add missing throwback uniforms and pay attention to detail.

SDS again refuses to add proper missing throwback and throwback alternates to MLB The Show. The new Derek Jeter storyline shows his 2001 ALDS playoff game against Oakland and they are wearing the 2000 Black Alternate and not the Forrest Green set like they did in real life. Also last years trailer had Cal Ripken in the current Baltimore Away uniform as they still won't add the proper 1995 Away uniform.

Donovan Mitchell wearing the 2022 City edition instead of this years set in the 3 point shootout.

So ones that haven't leaked.

 

OKC  (Navy ?)

Denver (Navy ?)

Portland (Black ?)

New Orleans (Deep Purple again ?)

Orlando (Gray ?)

Good news, this set was finally added to 2K24. 
 

And these ones are in 2K23 already, along with other sets like the last San Diego Clippers jerseys & the early-00s Cavaliers jerseys (the minimalist black/orange/light blue ones) but in a frustratingly limited way: they're only useable if you play as that team in those specific years of Eras, and either keep them wearing that yourself or export it to a more modern MyNBA file, an option that'll only be available for another year or so. As well, those Cavs jerseys and the Clippers' 90s jerseys (which aren't quite the one you were asking about, but it's pretty darn close) have also been added to their teams' normal rotations for 2K24. 

I did see the team uniform selection and they added Iverson's rookie jerseys and the better 90's Clippers set plus "Some" sleeved jerseys. It does suck that the missing sets can only be used in "Eras" and not in other modes.

 

Also missing

 

Utah 1999-2004 Black Alternate

Utah 2006-2010 Carolina Blue Alternate

Dallas 2003-2004 Silver Alternate

Memphis MLK Special 2016-17

Chicago Gray 2015-17

Detroit Navy 2015-17

Brooklyn Gray 2014-17

Orlando Gray 2015-17

1992-93 season. Dallas switches from Green to Blue as primary road uniform. Also the only year they wore blue in Denver against the Nuggets in their final season in the beautiful Rocky Mountain Rainbow set.

 

Any club getting new logo or home/away uniforms?

 

Would love to see the Cubs bring back red billed caps or get a new road uniform similar to the 1990-1993 road set.

Clippers honoring local barbershops in L.A.? Team nickname?

 

Celtics honoring Bob Cousey with the new city edition.

TECMO NBA on NES had the Nuggets playing with green colored zones/baselines on their court.  Obviously when the game came out the following month on SNES all courts looked better and more accurate. Same for the SEGA version that came out in December 1993 with updated logos and rosters (minus rookies) for the 93-94 season.

Specifically Game 4 of the Western Conference Semis played on May 11th 1992, a 153-151 Blazers win in double-OT - the final* home game for that uni set.

 

 

 

 

*It was also used in the 1992-93 preseason, leading to a few confusing pics of Barkley in the Western-style unis.

 

Yup, I still remember seeing this magazine at my Dentists office during the 1992-93 season.

 

After seeing those NFL2k5 pics it makes me wish that EA would add several more throwback uniforms to Madden but they've been too lazy since the PS2/Xbox days to add any more. Same with SDS not adding missing Alternate Throwbacks or missing Away Throwback uniforms.

 

Also I believe NFL Xtreme 2 (released in 1999) had the Detroit Lions in Blue pants while NFL Game Day 2000 and Madden 2000 had the Lions back in their traditional Gray pants.

 

The NBA 2k series has done a fine job of adding throwback uniforms but several are still missing:

 

New York 1979-1980

New Jersey 1999-2005 Gray Alternate

Philadelphia 1994-1997

Philadelphia 2007-09 Red Alternate

Atlanta 1992-1995

Atlanta 1994-1995 Black Alternate

Indiana 1980-1986 Home White/Home Yellow/Away Royal Blue

Cleveland 1981-1983

Cleveland 2014-2017 Dark Navy Alternate

Denver 1976-1983

Denver 1983-1985 (Dark Blue Rainbow set)

Utah/New Orleans Jazz 70's Home Yellow

Dallas 2003-2004 Silver Alternate

New Orleans Hornets 2008-2013 Yellow Alternate

Kansas City Kings 1980-1985 Away Script

1974-75 Buffalo Braves (Powder Blue)

1987-1989 Los Angeles Clippers (Away Red)

The Phillies give MLB the finger and keep all 5 uniforms.

 

The Phillies do what the 2019-20 Grizzlies and 2022-23 Utah Jazz did and wear their classic uniforms as their "City" editions.

Hopeful Predictions:

 

Hopefully Marlins embrace the teal and bring back the 1993-2002 Teal Spring Training Tops as a Friday Alternate!

 

Tigers City Connect will be themed around the 1994 Away redesign and the Tiger on the English "D" with the Orange Bill Cap will make a return.

 

Kansas City's Away Blue Alternate will go back to "Royals" script.

 

Diamondbacks have embraced Teal this season as a Team Color accessory and will have a new Teal Alternate as either the Sedona Red or Black will be eliminated.

 

Angels bring back the classic and better looking 1973-1992 California Angels Home Uniform as an official alternate.

 

 

No more "Earned" editions. How about "Mid Season Tournament Edition" sets.

Also with other Ken Griffey games

 

Ken Griffey Jr Presents 1994:

 

Reds wear red caps/batting helmets at home instead of the white crown w/red bill worn from 1993-1998.

Also Riverfront Stadium has Blue outfield walls instead of green.

Cookie cutter/multipurpose stadiums have same outfield wall (either blue or green).

The only game to ever have the right design for Mile High Stadium as World Series Baseball on Sega had generic/cookie cutter design.

 

Ken Griffey Jr's Winning Run

 

Again the Reds wear red caps/helmets at home

Only the Cubs/Dodgers/Yankees/Orioles/Red Sox/Blue Jays/Tigers/White Sox/Indians/Royals/Rangers/Mariners have their outfield exteriors in the game. All other stadiums use generic design of Veterans Stadium from the batter's POV at home plate.

Once the ball is hit out to the outfield all walls are the same only with different colors. Center Field has a tiny wall while Left/Right have giant "Monster" walls.

So here goes another gander at the upcoming City sets.

 

Already shown/leaked

 

Brooklyn multi colored honoring another Brooklyn artist/graffiti artist

Utah Purple fauxback

 

Atlanta - White honoring 50th Anniversary of Hank Aaron breaking Babe Ruth's record

Charlotte- Gold/Butterscotch version of Mint set

Orlando - Gray 90's Fauxback

Washington Retains Pink set from 2023

Miami- "Crockett Blue" version of ransom set

Boston- White Honoring Bob Cousey

Philadelphia- Red version of 2023

New York - White w/Pinstripes 1950's fauxback

Toronto- Blue honoring Huskies

Milwaukee- Key Lime Green version of 2023 set

Cleveland- Navy 90's fauxback

Detroit- Black honoring Motown

Chicago - Red altered version of 2021 set honoring Chicago's theater district in  1920's

Indiana- Red "Cutters" fauxback honoring 45th Anniversary of the film "Breaking Away"

Lakers- Carolina Blue version of 75th Anniversary remix honoring Minneapolis Lakers

Clippers- Red version of 2023 set honoring the Drew League

Phoenix- Orange Version of 2021-2022 sets honoring the Valley/Desert of Arizona

Kings- Carolina Blue honoring the move to Sacramento

Warriors- White Version of 2023 set

San Antone retains 2023 set

Dallas- Green version of 2023 set

Houston -Red honoring 30th Anniversary of 1994 Championship club

New Orleans -Yellow version of 2023 set

Memphis- Yellow "Grind City" nickname set

Portland- Teal version of 2023 set

Minnesota -Ice Blue honoring the 1,000 lakes

Denver- Claret version of 2023 set

Oklahoma City- Black honoring Oklahoma's famous Country & Western singers

I can see the Nuggets doing a burgundy or navy version of this year's city set next season. They do tend to wear burgundy accessories with this year's city "white" and regular association "white".

 

So which clubs will retain this year's city set for next season? Bullets...Wizards Pink and Spurs San Antone Turquoise perhaps..

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix was another smaller, older venue used through the early 90s.

 

The American flag tacked onto the wall horizontally above the scoreboard, rather than hanging vertically from a beam as is customary today, is interesting.

 

 

This was the 1991-92 season which was the last year for the Suns at the Memorial Coliseum and final season in the original Suns look while Portland updated their set for the 1991-92 campaign.

So the "Earned" will be replaced by "Tournament Editions" ??? Makes me think of NBA Jam Tournament Edition and Street Fighter II Tournament Edition but I digress.

Garth Brooks designed a Thunder uniform?? Where would one find this information?

 

 

First Thunder City edition was based on Garth Brooks' "The Thunder Rolls" not designed by Brooks. My bad.

 

 

Troy Aikman Football for SNES/Sega has the Patriots in red jerseys w/Silver Pants and Helmets for home games. Always found that interesting.

I always enjoy guessing what the new city editions will be. As a hardcore baseball uniform traditionalist, I do tend to be more open minded on the NBA City editions. Hopefully the NBA will bring back the "Earned" edition in 2024.

Marlins just posted the full anniversary logo.  This one works as a much better anniversary logo than the first one we saw

 

 

 

Was hoping they would break out those awesome 1993-2002 Teal BP jerseys or do a fauxback version in Teal. Sadly SDS doesn't add classic BP/Spring Training jerseys in MLB The Show.
