"Revulsion" isn't too strong a word when I see those things. The teal jerseys are an abomination. The Pistons have been using Red White and Blue since they were in Fort Wayne. Just because other teams that have come after the pistons have red white and blue doesn't mean the Pistons need to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better than the horrible baseline wordmarks we used to have, complete with stray "pool noodles" on either side that looked like scratches in the paint job. With that said, I miss the blue filled-in half-circles. Now there isn't enough blue on the court. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 ^ yea, especially with the Icon uniforms now blue, you'd think they'd echo that hierarchy on the court design, but that's WAY too much thought for that organization to put into something.

Discogod Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Donald Sterling might have been a misogynistic, racist :censored:bag, but at least the Clips had nice unis when he was running the team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red Auerbach Court logo looks to be missing as well. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yeah, I just checked a gameplay video from 2K17 and it looks like you're right, they had the team name on the baselines in last year's game as well. Seems odd that 2K couldn't secure the rights to the TD Bank logos, but it looks like that's what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenTino Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Any signs of the Cavs' new court? I'm wary of what they're going to roll out to go with the new uniforms. EDIT: Nevermind. Just saw the screenshots in the Cavs uniforms thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA_Angels Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Might have already been released, but in case it wasn't i saw the new Lakers throwbacks. Powder Blue jerseys with M.P.L.S in gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem to have Nike's truncated armhole trim or cut in the shorts either. I'd guess it's just a standard throwback option in the game, though it seems likely that the Lakers' throwback will end up being Nike's interpretation of that uni.

Yeah, that's MPLS jerseys that's been in the game for years now, I can tell because it's lacking detail and realistic proportions of the wordmark and numbers. If there's no Nike logo then it's not official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much greed is there if they can't make a mutual agreement for a realistic video game and free advertising within the game? Part of the stadium naming rights deals ought to allow depiction in game and such. Just like its being broadcast on television. Same thing with baseball stadium ads.

Well, the polynymous arena in question is owned by a real-life Mr. Burns who, while engineering two NHL lockouts, defrauded disadvantaged Boston children by "forgetting" to make contractually obligated donations to the park district for 20 years, so to answer your question, infinite. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
