It just doesn't fit. Imagine my delight as a Pistons fan - we have both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree is ugly as hell, but this jersey actually could be nice if they only removed stupid stripes from right side and change Gray to Yellow or Navy or even White.

I will say, it's grown on since it was unveiled back in 2010, but not that much. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

I think the 2018 City Pacers uniform would be top 10 if only they used a color that was in their scheme instead of gray/grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froob Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Warriors...you fools make that the statement jersey. Get rid of the damn granite, it’s not a team color. Yellow looks beautiful on that court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The font used on the "Town" jerseys is just vastly superior. Put that on on their standard home and aways and they'd be close to perfect. That copperplate drags them down significantly in my book. It's not just an overused, generic typeface. It's an ugly typeface that is completely out of place on a sports uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 The current unis with the old Friz Quadrata wouldn't be all the bad either. Friz is overused, but it looks decent on a sports uniform...which is why it's overused. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Because, I could make arguments that Lakers, Celtics, Bulls, Sixers, Trail Blazers, Pistons and Wizards have a better brand than the Warriors (probably even more). There has to be a way to quantify brands more than opinion and purely sales. Because, when you have two of the top players in the league ... of course you're going to sell more jerseys.

I might have a project on my hands ... That is an interesting question. My graduate college background involved big data so these kinds of thought exercises fascinate me. Some data points could be how often a team changes their logo/colors/uniforms. And drilling even further, how drastic of a deviation from the team’s historical logo/colors/uniforms pattern as well. Then how drastic of a deviation from the most recent tri-combo of the brand (are they going in a new direction or reverting back? A stronger historical brand - what I assume your ultimate “top 5” would be - would cause teams that stray to go back, like Toronto Blue Jays in baseball). You can even give statiscal values to each of the three elements of the brand as weights, like Logo being the “heaviest” for example, as well as apply weights to the overall history of a brand vs the previous look. Sorry to give you my totally unsolicited opinion, but this is the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
