tigerslionspistonshabs Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 His stats are nearly identical wearing each respective number. I think he accomplished more independently wearing 24. What I mean by that is he didn't have Shaq. It was HIS team. Even if they don't officially retire 8...no one will ever wear it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okcsooner35 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 The OKC Thunder are going with the white sleeved jerseys for Game 1 tonight, making it 7 home games in a row. For the season, OKC is 8-0 in the sleeves. So, superstition may be at work here, along with the aforementioned preference of the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jp1409 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 And as much as I like the Celtics, I honestly hope they lose every single game in their ugly green and black alts. I've seen these way too often lately... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb6 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Not sure if we knew this, but Silver was just interviewed during the Thunder-Mavs game, and he said the Nike swoosh will be on the right side, with the add on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Former NBA boss David Stern got rid of manufacturers logo on game shorts and jerseys, right ? This dates back to the reign of longtime NBA commissioner David Stern, who believed that the teams' individual brands should not be sullied with a Nike swoosh or an Adidas trefoil. This Silver character bring not only the manufactures logo back, he also brings ads. Forget about Gary Bettman, Silver is the person to boo .

Ugly on their own merits, extra bad for a tradition-minded club.

Black stripes were usually used as a way to remember a person who had passed away. These days, we have memorial patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I stumbled onto this Miami-Charlotte game and Miami. Kind of funny how both teams are wearing asymmetrical uniforms, but the stripes are on different sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like someone either got lazy or they just wanted it to look awful. The Hornets don't look as bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Of all the alts-in-playoffs, and there have been so many already this year, the weird Miami white one is especially surprising.

Asymmetry was the trend in the 90s and I am glad the Hornets decided to use it for their new set. But it was a style that should remain in the 90s Go A's!
