Sodboy13 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 This thread is wonderful, and it's unbelievable that we don't have an NBA uniform database like we do for the NHL, NFL, and MLB. 8 Quote On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

I agree. I would be the first one to jump on that, but I am not that good at Illustrator and Photoshop as many are on this board. 1 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

I believe it's in 1974 -- the Jazz's inaugural season. The logo on the jersey is very simplified version (with no basketball in the note) of the team logo and from what I've seen has only been used on the road. As all of the home game pictures from 1974 (as seen below) are the refined and detailed logo. I'm not sure if this was a whole season thing or first couple of months, etc.? This is from the 1974 season -- as it was the only season Pistol Pete wore #44 with the Jazz. I'm not sure if he changed midseason, but he eventually changed to #7. These jerseys also have the simplified note logo on them. I just used this picture, because I love the "Pistol" nickname on the back of the jersey. A few things from this picture -- 1) It's from the inaugural season, 2) It's being played in the Municipal Auditorium (one of two arenas the Jazz used before moving into the Superdome the following year) -- notice the elevated court and net. 3) The Jazz are wearing a detailed logo on the home white jersey unlike the roads. 4) Notice Rudy Tomjanovich's nickname on the back of his jersey. 5) I love the gold on these Rockets jerseys. BAR NONE by favorite NBA warmup. Great use of the Jazz's basketball logo. Seriously makes me miss team's unique warmup designs. I nope Nike brings that back (doubt it). I haven't seen an in game picture -- and don't expect to find one -- of Walt Bellamy in a Jazz jersey as he played in only one game before retiring. But, at least this picture exists. when i saw that Jazz warmup jacket, i thought, did i just take some brown acid? 3 Quote so long and thanks for all the fish.

kimball Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 I love these quirky one season jerseys worn by the Mavericks. The first being the blue jersey in their inaugural season (1980-81). The following year they switched to green in the same design. Then in 1991-92 the Mavericks switched to a blocked number and font in green. They wore this one season before switching to the familiar blue version in 1992-93. 2 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

Oh, it's been tried. I've been a part of several such databases over the years, but none have ever got off the ground. Heck, my first website back in 1996 was a small page full of various jerseys I'd clumsily drawn in Microsoft Paint. It's one of my dreams to be able to view a site such as NHLuniforms.com or Dressed To The Nines dedicated to the NBA (and ABA, and might as well chuck the CBA in there too, they had some interesting unis). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unocal Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Speaking of the Raptors at Maple Leaf Gardens..... According to basketball-reference.com this was the Raptors' only game at the old building in 1999. So this was the only time Vince Carter ever played at Maple Leaf Gardens. Oh and it was the home opener. So this is the only time Vinsanity was at the old building. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MkDon Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Why do the Pistons teal uniforms sometimes look blue? Did they had bluish uniforms or it was because of the lights in some arenas that made them look like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
