BlackBolt3 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 They promote green for 4 months and then proceed to brick it on the main uniforms. What a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be as disappointed as I've ever been in a Minnesota uniform reveal...and that includes the gold-trimmed Twins and all the little regressions the Wild used to take. Not to mention past Wolves transgressions and missed opportunities.

They look like the Mavericks in a Wizards template. It also sort of looks like they were designed to house the Fitbit ad and if that's the case GO F*** YOURSELVES, NBA.

deltarich87 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 So the Wolves are now the Mavs colors but with the Wizards template Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suns1977 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Jesus, those stripes in the midway point of the shorts make it look like another pair of shorts coming out beneath. Not a fan. Not at all. I hated the trees, now I miss them. I'm now seeing the forest for the trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 The Timberwolves are a joke. They will never do anything right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're not gonna take advantage of that look or name on the uniform, just drop it already. They may be the best dressed intramural team but this is a joke for an NBA team.

lahaye7 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 They are ok, I too am disappointed in the lack of green. I am sore,wounded, but not slainI will lay down and bleed a whileAnd then rise up to fight again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosioux76 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 All I can think of is that owner Glen Taylor must really hate green. It's unfathomable to me that a team would so brazenly ignore one of its primary colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I will say this...I actually thought a silver lining was that the ad was a little less noticeable than what we've seen for many other teams.

BrianLion Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Jesus tap dancing Christ. Let's take a cool and unique identity and turn it into something you'd see on a team in a movie that's not about basketball but has basketball scenes in it.

Red Wolf Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This Minnesota set is absolutely, positively, totally fine. I actually kind of like it even. It's definitely in the conversation for best Timberwolves set yet. But that has a lot more to do with Minnesota never having any worthwhile uniforms.

I get the instinct to be subtle with a neon accent color, but there's such a thing as being too subtle. These would be 1,000x better had they outlined the word mark and numbers in green. And since someone brought up the Seahawks, there's a good example of how to incorporate eon green into a set with subtlety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
