But, speaking of express, why hasn't FedEx bought the jersey sponsorship from the Grizz? Seems like a natural pairing.

I don't think any arena sponsors are the jersey sponsors of the teams that play in the building. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Oklahoma City Dallas Houston Brooklyn Memphis This is just one logo/uniform nerd’s opinion, but OKC, Houston and Dallas would do great to completely start from scratch (Dallas to the old green and blue M with a hat wouldn’t be terrible. Houston to the clutch city era would be cool too), Brooklyn add red and blue and drop the black, and a part of me I kinda hate wants Memphis to embrace and maybe go back to the Tams. Or at least rebrand. The Grizzlies looked right in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBA going in the opposite direction of design in my eyes. Thats why throwback NBA jersey sales are on a huge incline, I work with Lids and get data of jersey sales in our tiny district Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had the exact same thought. I wonder if the St. Louis Blues' existence would be an issue as well in such a hypothetical scenario. Also, as a kid, I associated jazz music with the Rocky Mountains and the Utah Jazz are to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rj0498 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I would actually like Memphis to keep the name Grizzlies. Instead I would want them to change their look, go for a more wilderness theme with their unis rather than a cool, laid back Memphis blue look. Something like brown and red perhaps? it makes sense considering there are bears in Tennessee (granted they are black bears but, Memphis Black Bears doesn't have a good ring to it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't they just do a twist on the Hoosiers uniform with deep blue jersey and gold shorts??!! @Conrad. can you do a mockup of that?? "Indiana" instead of "Hickory" across the chest and replace the red with blue? Please??!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimball Posted March 31, 2018 Author Share Posted March 31, 2018 It is kind of a shame that the NBA didn't go with the 90's throwbacks a few years back -- Indiana, Atlanta, Utah, Detroit, Philadelphia and a few others were supposedly going to participate. Not sure why it didn't happen? But, I really would love to see the Pistons' teal, Jazz's purple mountain and Rockets' pajamas return at least 1-2 times (though with Nike that would be 1-2 a week) during the year.
