The teams are responsible for selling the ad space. That would seem to me like they have the option to not do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakfu Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Is there an NBA expansion thread? I don't see one. I assume Seattle Supersonics is a lock, and despite Mexico City being a supposed frontrunner I doubt it happens. That leaves Louisville and and Vancouver as the big ones. Could Kentucky Colonels be resurrected, or would the KFC connection cause problems? They'd make a nice throwback uniform at least. They're probably the most successful ABA team / identity that didn't survive - correct? What would be Vancouver options? I'd hate to see a Hornets style Grizzlies identity swap.

I think it would be more appropriate to start a thread in the Sports Discussion forum, especially considering this is about 2017-18 logo/uniform changes. And, it's safe to say there will be no expansion for next year. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

The NBA's not going back to Vancouver. They should have stayed. The city exploded right after they left, but the NBA's not going there, at least any time soon. Seattle is the first, foremost and currently only viable option if they get their arena situation wrapped up. Louisville, as cool as it would be, is a college town. It would be like Memphis with far less support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimball Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Since this is starting to take over the 2016-17 NBA thread and it should belong here (since it's debuting in 2017-18), I'll just leave this monstrosity here ...

PrimalCookie Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 And people wonder why I'm stocking up on Magic jerseys this year. Excuse me if I don't want to be a walking ad for Disney/EA Sports/Florida Hospital/Amway/Universal/SeaWorld/whatever the you want. Nope. Not happening.

WSU151 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 But Swingman jerseys won't have ads...only in-arena authentics, right? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 ^ correct. the jerseys you buy online (or in clothing stores) won't have the ads on them. hopefully that doesn't change after one season, though.

Pabig Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I don't mind the sponsor logo. You gotta go with the times and it doesn't look bad at all. Adds a much needed splash of color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only retail jerseys that would have ads on them are ones sold in team stores at the arena, and even that is up to the team. Looking forward to calling Cousins the "big almond".
