design by committee... always sure to please everyone!

i would have loved to see a Minnesota Fighting Saints jersey, instead of 2 versions of the same thing.

This has been a thoughtful and unencumbered re-think, and for that I am grateful. Happy: Clean and cohesive. A good balance of retaining historical elements and cleaning up assets. Sad: Cream is barely distinguishable from white. The darkening of the navy (I didn't think you could GET darker than 289 without just being black. The league doesn't really need another Tigers/Yankees dark navy team). M-Star cap is rather forgettable.

True, true. I'll downgrade my complaint to "minor nitpick". I'm very glad the gold is going away, the TC got cleaned up, there's no clutter, and future unis will have a new style guide to draw from. Still... different sleeve striping?
-
Does it bother anyone else that we're at the dawn of a rebrand, and these 2 jerseys look like they belong to 2 different teams?
-
Agree. Maybe i'm just in a crabby old man mood, but every time there's a team reveal, all I can think is that 2 brands are being eroded simultaneously.

I'm prognosticating that in 5 or 10 years, the NBA is going to resemble the Premiere League or La Liga: 2 or 3 new "kits" every year, in fancy textures, fabrics, patterns and colors. They'll be called "earned", "city", "throwback", "hardcourt", "retro", "celebration", "legend" or whatever the heck else you can dream of. Sell a million of each. What about the team's brand, you ask? Nah. Don't worry about it. Fancy new duds! It's a financial model that could possibly work for the NBA. It's just going to be WAY too much for a guy like me to want to pay attention to on a daily basis.

Are there Jazz colors? I mean, they've literally used every color except red. Their brand identity lies scattered in a thousand pieces.

Thank you for this summary. I think your uniform strategy is perfect. I'm most jazzed to see if they can make a 21st century "handshake logo" to restore the team's unique personality. All the logos with script marks and stitched baseballs and pinstripes and roundels are just so boringly TRYHARD. Bring back the handshake!

All y'all's points become moot when Joe Burrow fires a 9 yard missile into the BACK JUDGE'S solar plexus.

Only the slapping part

I'm seeing more and more ads superimposed on the glass and boards. We're all in favor of leaving the uniforms as clean as can be. I'm also here to defend the ice surface. I'd rather see a small jersey patch, and ads covering every single inch of plexiglass, than see a giant bank logo covering half of the neutral zone. No one here is nostalgic for the half- drunk fan in the first row, wearing the jersey of a retired player, beer in one hand, and slapping the glass with the other hand, right?

Random logo and uniform things

True, but... a basketball team named "the Court" with some kind of royalty theme wouldn't be the weirdest nickname the NBA ever had...
