NBA Changes 2017-18

I really like that the Nike template has straightened out the side panels for Orlando and Memphis -- a much cleaner and more modern look, IMO.

Orlando did well. These pinstripes remind me of the 90s uni

Looks like the same ol' jersey with new wordmark on chest and new "SA" logo replacing the spurs on the shorts.

Lakers NOB now yellow without white outline?

Just like the Bulls, it looks like the Lakers are now going with one-color NOB's. For the Spurs, it looks like the wordmark is one-color, and the number font is staying the same (we already knew that'd be the case). It also looks like their new secondary logo might be inside the side panel on the shorts.

The Spurs' jerseys took a turn for the worst. Now the numbers don't match the wordmark since the wordmark doesn't have a silver double outline anymore. Also, replacing the Spur U on the shorts for that pathetic excuse for a logo is just downright awful.

Are the Spurs the only team that went without a waist logo?

 

Also looks like the silver is now gray on the side panels and the outer stroke is thicker.

^Minnesota doesn't have one either.

 

Here's some more shots of the Spurs uniforms:

These look exactly like crappy knockoffs you'd find on eBay.

And another look at the back of the purple Lakers uniform with the solid yellow NOB's:

Spurs will need to grow on me. I do like the one color wordmark tho

When did shorts go above the knees again?

Weird that the rendering on the graphics here show the Spurs jerseys without inner strokes on the numerals that match the color of the jersey. The actual pictures of the uniforms above suggest otherwise, but I think I'd really prefer the numerals in the rendering.

Good look at the Knicks shorts here:

Overall, these Spurs uniforms just feel half-baked to me....the wordmarks are simplified, but the numerals are busy....the side panels are simple, the collar and armhole trim are busy. I feel like a definitive shift one way or the other would look much better just in terms of cohesion, though I'd obviously much prefer them taking the truly simplified route.

Okay I finally see what a lot of posters had brought up earlier in this thread.

Yeah, I've notice a lot of these new Nike jerseys have a bunch of mix 'n match elements to them. Different colored wordmarks vs numbers, differing trim colors and patterns, cutoff/early tapered striping, etc. It's like they couldn't decide on a set pattern so decided to combine all of them. I'd like a lot of them so much more if they just made small tweaks in consistency. Instead it feels like designs by committee with every designer wanting to leave their mark.
