    Yeah, I don't get that impression either. In fact, I get a great impression that they're doing a black version of the script based off the tease. Odds are it'll be on the Statement jerseys and we probably won't see a change (or much of one) on the Icon and Association jerseys. However, I could see them use the script at some point for their City Edition jerseys with a light blue or whatever, but the Kings are entrenched into being a purple and black team now.

    I feel like one of the reasons why Ryan Smith would be interested in an expansion team is because of the arena situation. It'd give him more time to determine an arena situation and would probably be dependent on getting the Olympics again. There'd have to be a new arena and that could give him the resources for a place for a team along with the Jazz (if needed). Also, I've HEARD that the Maverik Center is expandable if needed, but I haven't seen or read anything that would suggest that.

    That's the setup from the Olympics, not that the hockey setup is any better, but I think it'd work temporarily better than Phoenix or Brooklyn.

    Yeah, the Delta Center isn't suited well for hockey. But, I think the only way it happens is if Ryan Smith buys them and eventually builds a new arena for both teams. I feel like the teams would cannibalize each other with two separate owners and arenas. I want a hockey team here in SLC, but it feels like a longer shot than MLB.

    I don't think Houston is necessarily a shoe-in either. I think it depends on what Meruelo does now. If he sells the team -- is it just to the highest bidder? I feel like Bettman will have his hands over it all so who knows?

    The Warriors say hello.

    I'm digging the wordmark. I wonder if this will be on all jerseys? Just a black one? Also ... they better have NUTNs!

    Okay, the league only has the first four games of each series (weird), the Lakers and Nuggets definitely didn't get the memo from the Heat and Celtics. Eastern Conference Finals G1 - MIA (Red) @ BOS (White) G2 - MIA (Red) @ BOS (White) G3 - BOS (Black) @ MIA (White) G4 - BOS (Green) @ MIA (White) G5 - G6 G7 Western Conference Finals G1 - LAL (Gold) @ DEN (Blue - Statement) G2 - LAL (Gold) @ DEN (Navy Blue) G3 - DEN (Blue - Statement) @ LAL (White) G4 - DEN (White - City) @ LAL (Gold) G5 G6 G7

    I hate this thread. I hate that this is something we are talking about.

    I wonder how many BINDING agreements one can have? Is this a record?

    Hugo looks like he's lost a lot of weight. He doing okay?

    The sad reality is that's not even technically considered their "HOME" jersey since the gold jersey is considered their Icon Edition. Thanks Nike.

    This would only work if the Rays were the team that moved to Orlando.

    No ... the numbers originate from the 2013 change, but when the current set was introduced in 2017 the numbers were un-italicized. They're similar in the sense they're sad attempts at modernization, but they're not similar in any regard past that.
  17. kimball
    Yeah, I am the same way. The '92-00 look still translate well into today's NBA. Much more than even this ...
  18. kimball
    True. But, I don't see MLB returning to Oakland, especially if nothing is going to happen with a stadium.
  19. kimball
    It'd be interesting to see what happens IF the A's deal in Vegas falls through. There's no return to Oakland. And, like posters mentioned above Nashville doesn't seem like a viable option, not just because of the Nashville Stars group, but realignment issues. So, it really limits locations in the West. Which leaves Portland and SLC. And, I won't lie, I hope it's SLC. I'm a Utahn. I've wanted the major leagues here. And, I love the A's. I'd be a fan on day one. Biases aside I also think SLC provides an easier move than to Portland, especially with being stadium ready even if they need to play in Smith's Ballpark for a couple years. It has the capacity and ability to add more if needed. Much better than in Summerlin. But, I wonder what that does for Vegas' future status for expansion. Does it sour the whole market? Nevada politicians? I feel like it could. So does MLB expand to Portland? It'll be interesting to see what happens. But, I just have this nagging feeling that the A's deal in Vegas is going to fall through. Especially when you consider Mark Davis' feelings on the A's ownership group. There's no love loss.

    I need to see these side by side ... I didn't even realize they changed them. Huh. And, yeah, the older versions are better. The red on the shorts is too gaudy and the red outline on the gold print is too much. Dumb change.
  21. kimball
    I agree. City and Classic Editions shouldn't be used. Stick to the Association, Icon and Statement Editions. Road teams should never wear their Association jerseys on the road. If a team wears color at home ... color vs. color should be the rule.
  22. kimball
    They got me on the first part and then lost me completely at the end.
  23. kimball
    Well, and the Heat's red color is noticeably darker than the Hawks and Rockets' red.
  24. kimball
    Well, the NBA didn't help with that incompetence either with the salary cap and draft pick stipulations. If those weren't there the Raptors would have had the #1 pick in '96 and the Grizz in '98.

    You're comparing situations that are nearly 70 years apart. As pointed out by @LMU the shift in hockey as well as baseball and basketball is development first. That's why we're seeing AAA clubs like St. Paul, Sugar Land, Gwinnett, Tacoma and Vegas team up with parent clubs in baseball and Vegas, San Jose, Vancouver, Toronto, etc. in hockey. Development is more important than profit. But, they also wouldn't be doing it if they weren't making a profit.
