FinsUp1214 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 A substantial level of nausea was personally had when the Ducks dumped their classic set and won their first cup the very next season in these clusterbombs: Granted, the Cavs have taken the cake for worst offense now. But Anaheim is a fairly close 2nd in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 The league should not even allow alternates in the playoffs. The teams shouldn't have a choice at all because you can't trust them to wear the correct uniforms. If it wasn't the black jerseys then it would've been the navy blue jerseys. They have 2 alternates and neither one of those colors appears on any other uniform. That's really unnecessary. Last night is the all-time "yeah but those uniforms though" moment. I have a lot of friends in Cleveland and many of them were downtown in the after party so I saw snapchats, instagrams, facebook pictures etc etc. I don't think I saw one fan wearing one of the black jerseys. Nobody was in the jersey the team won the championship in! should've been this: It's almost tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Then they have to don those stupid t-shirts, rendering the uniform decision irrelevant... I'll take those sleeved, black, uniforms over a tacky t-shirt any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave-Bird 08 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Only after the playoffs where the Cavs stuck to the blue and black jerseys, those win jerseys already look foreign to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1979 World Series, on the other hand: That's just eye-searingly terrible for both teams. it was the 1970's so i give it a pass: i think some of you might have even worn it then. so long and thanks for all the fish.

Hell, even these things would have looked ten times better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like them because there was no sense in introducing black as an alternate. They already used navy. The Cavs brand pushes "Wine and Gold United", but what did they where on national tv? Everything but wine or gold. It makes zero sense to me. Personally, I'd like to see the navy go away from the palette completely. Stick with actual wine and gold, and do a modern version of the striped throwbacks. http://www.derekyoder.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy with Machete Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 What you people seem to forget is that the Cavs would have never won the title in their regular road unis. Those black sleeved alternates were magic, plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's why they finally won a championship - they were wearing Pittsburgh's colors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfway through the game I made this connection - all 3 of Lebron's championship have come while wearing black, yellow, and a dark red of some sort.

That's why I don't like navy, especially on the court. Navy against the yellow, makes the yellow appear dull and greenish. When laid next to wine, it looks black. you may get slugged mentioning Pittsburgh colors in Cleveland now that they're riding high http://www.derekyoder.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good example. Come to think of it Elway and the Broncos finally winning a championship and it coming in those unis was one of the first "but those uniforms though" moment.

Krz Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 My third grade basketball teams championship, ruined by a maroon jersey with white washed of team names. I could barely recognize we were still the Sooners (horible uncreative team name too) Excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
