bowld Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Nuggets hat has the shorts pattern on underside of brim. Looks like we should expect to see some Clipper sails on their uni somewhere- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're just shirts. A shirt is appropriate for all sports. Anyway, one team got them right. And one team created one of the best uniforms in the history of the league.

Anyway, one team got them right. And one team created one of the best uniforms in the history of the league. Plenty of the t-shirt deigns looked good but would've been better without the sleeves. Utah for example would lose nothing by going to the traditional cut... I'm not gonna start a debate over personal taste with that Jazz jersey, but IMO it'd be just as good if not better without the sleeves. Same with the Nets. Between the ads and Nike's bad designs, I'd take us back to the t-shirt era at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally none of those are good examples, as all could perfectly well be done in a shirt. And skiing pretty much has to be done while wearing a shirt. Unless you're this guy.

To be fair, red vs. green wouldn't fly for colorblindness reasons. Doesn't excuse why the Celtics couldn't wear their perfectly good and classic white uniforms though, or wear green and force the Sixers to wear white or cream or whatever else.

Because what's the point of jerseys with a snakeskin pattern pretty much based off of Kobe if you aren't going to wear them for Kobe's dual jersey retirement Monday night? 11 hours ago, Teal said: I'm fairly certain that the Lakers are wearing the City joints tonight. Not according to their twitter account: Of course there’s always the possibility of them going the fake out route and actually coming out in the Black Mamba uniforms. I’m hoping they really do wear the classic yellow home uniforms, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepis21 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Not using a Black Mamba jersey for a Kobe Night is a huge mistake. This is the perfect moment to debut and there will be no better occasion to wear them later, so I hope Lakers was lying on twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that tonight seems like the most fitting game to wear the Black Mamba uniforms, but I’m also of the opinion that the Lakers should always wear the traditional gold home uniforms when honoring their legends. So even though it seems a bit foolish to not wear the Black Mamba uniforms on the night that they retire Kobe’s numbers, I’d still rather see them wear the traditional home uniforms and save the Black Mamba uniforms for later dates. And based on the Warriors players wearing blue socks and tights during pregame right now, I’d say the Lakers really will be in traditional gold tonight. If that ends up being the case, then count me in as a fan of that move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, with as gimmicky as the NBA has been getting lately I could totally see them starting the game in gold and then changing into the Black Mamba jerseys at halftime during the ceremony and playing the last half in them. Don't laugh at me. This is Adam Silver's NBA after all. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

I don't think the NBA cares about color blindness with all these color on color matchups. At least some of them have to clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
