NBA Changes 2017-18

[Jay_Mellowed 396]

I feel a change to a new font with no outline would've worked. An outline with the wordmarks & numerals would require two different looks, whereas a new font w/o an outline would've been a cleaner look.

 

Not a fan of the drop shadow, especially with red & blue on top of each other on the home uniform. Could've been worse though.

I actually like the drop shadows. They add character to the Sixers' look. The plain wordmarks/numbers were just a bit too boring. They also call back to Philly hoops history.

 

If they had red font and white drop shadow like in this picture, I'd be okay with it.

I absolutely love the new Sixers look. The drop shadow looks beautiful.

Am I the only one kind of getting a bad 3-D movie vibe from the Sixers' drop shadow on the white unis? Like, the jarred look 3-D has when you're not wearing the glasses? I'm not a fan of how that turned out. It's a bit dissapointing, as I  actually thought at first the concept would be a good idea.

 

I think the drop shadow is too thin and it's creating that sort of illusion to me. A bit thicker, and I think it'd have turned out fine. As it is now, I'd almost rather they hadn't touched the text and numbers at all.

What I don't like so far is that side panels go over the shoulder trim now. Looks wrong.

The Nuggets got mad that Darren Rovell used the same image the team uses...Rovell is a bit of a dbag...but the Nuggets' Twitter handler should have known the exact same image would be revealed to the media hours later, by the team.

 

It's kinda dumb that the Nuggets unveiled this sponsor patch on a 90-foot tall banner of the old jersey.  Should have just waited and shown both new jersey and sponsor patch together.  #anotherJoshKroenkefail

Mmh...yes 

But i don't understand that, light blue is not a part of the Hornets color scheme, is it just because of Michael Jordan owning the team!? Did they really add another color because of him?

It was always one of the pinstripe colors in the 90s....

Thanks. Surprising to me at least.

I just thought that if you have  purple and teal, you won't add light blue

I like the addition of the drop shadow to the 76ers' jerseys.  The old ones always felt off because the name and number looked so plain when compared to the trim and side panels.

Hornets: The Jumpman logo looks amazing in those jerseys. Bummed they ditch their city name from the road uni.

 

Sixers: That dropshadow ooooooooooo that looks good.

 

Nuggets: Was going to comment on them till I found out it's only a sponsor reveal, not new uniforms. #NuggetsFail

It's not a "road uni" anymore.

@ZachMikash: Per Josh Kroenke via @Altitude950, white home jerseys very similar, away blues similar but different and two all new Nike concept jerseys

I'd rather like people calling NBA unis home and road than association and icon. No matter what Nike calls it.

[insert name 5,000]

No one outside of Nike will call it "association" and "icon".

Of course not.  We'll all say "soc'" (pronounced "sauxsh") and "ic'" (pronounced "ike").

"Ooh, I can't wait to cop the Dubs' soc' jersey."  Etc.

Agreed. Though last year's set was perfect, this was a nice touch that gives the uniform a retro vibe, and I like it. 

 

I'm usually not a fan of drop shadows on uniforms, but this looks really nice. Easily one of the best in the league.
