They don’t apply to and are completely unnecessary on a professional floor. College markings don’t belong there. The floor looks cleaner without them as well, so it’s a win-win. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjd77 1,540 Posted August 18, 2017 The Bucks released a few more photos of their 2 sets and I just realized that like Washington, our negative space "M" on the shorts is now slightly butchered because of the new template. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satomiblood 872 Posted August 18, 2017 I honestly couldn't care less if the college lanes serve no functional purpose for a team like the Grizzlies. The yellow trim was a nice complement to the dark blue. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henburg 1,521 Posted August 18, 2017 If the Grizzlies' goal is to become the most forgettable team in the league, they are definitely succeeding. They've managed to take an already dull look and remove any small pieces of personality that it had. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MkDon 232 Posted August 18, 2017 This was my take on the Grizzlies court without the college lanes, but i guess a little creativity is not allowed in the NBA nowadays. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that's nice. It's not like it's impossible to make use without college lanes lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Between the new scoreboard, ribbons, and other upgrades, FedExForum should look pretty fresh this fall. This seemingly confirms my conspiracy theory I had in my head that the Grizzlies were going to potentially be minimizing gold even more. The end of the gold triangle and removal of gold college lanes seemingly confirms it. This potentially kills my hopes for a gold jersey (other than a return of Memphis Tams throwbacks). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

upperV03 7,595 Posted August 24, 2017 From the 2K18 trailer for the All-Time teams, a first look at the new Nike warm-up pants and shooting shirts: We've already seen a few examples of the warm-up jackets, but this is the first we've seen of the corresponding pants and long sleeve shooting shirts. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Around the Horn 1,408 Posted August 24, 2017 Is this the new design for Nike team wear or just a Pistons thing? (via Little Caesars Arena on instagram) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jordub 16 Posted August 24, 2017 sorry if this has been broached already (I have a lot of catching up to do & wanted to ask about this before I forget)...but is this just quirkiness of the videogame or did the Heat un-slant their numbers? I'd really like it if they did, slanted numbers feel really 90s to me EDIT: I'm dumb. forgot we already saw Bam in the "new" jersey. Plus if I'd gone further in the video before posting I would've seen the Mourning shot 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, that's just Nike's templated design for the NBA practice jerseys and workout/shooting shirts. We've seen the Kings' practice jerseys and workout shirts with that design, as well as the Cavs' and Celtics' workout shirts: 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
