CaliforniaGlowin Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I wish the Nuggets were wearing their powder blues against the Heat's black Vice uni right now, that would be awesome. Last updated 2/26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Lakers are home in purple and black against the Pistons, who are wearing gray and navy. You'd think that's enough contrast, but I'm really struggling. Both teams have a side stripe, and both teams look muddy. Everyone's kind of fading into one another. Â You know what would look nice though? Yellow Lakers against blue and red Pistons. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Lakers stick to their traditional colors - the Pistons are a gray and black only team these days. I can’t remember the last time they used royal blue..

juggoo Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Cool looking matchup! The Wolves wear the lime green on pretty rare occasions, and I must say I prefer when it contrasts against a dark uniform rather than vs the rival's white, same way I don't like this Lakers tendency of wearing gold against white.

AndrewMLind Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 It’s definitely strange when the Lakers wear gold (yellow, really) on the road or against teams in white. It just looks much better in the theatre lighting at Staples and with the contrast of the visitors’ colored uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've looked better against the green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to defer to colorblind users as to whether it's cropped up in the NBA (it may help that there aren't many green teams?).  I like color on color but I wish teams would at least be required to adhere to a light vs. dark convention. Maybe split all the jerseys into light, dark and middle -- color on color matchups have to come from different buckets. I have trouble with combinations of white/yellow/light blue/grey as it is, or even tonally similar colors like green and royal blue.

I’ve never heard that saying before (and as a freshman in a large high school, that’s saying something), but I would assume it’s either the new “lit” or “fire”, or something like “clean”. In actual words, it’s probably a synonym for when people call uniforms “fresh”, which I’m pretty sure didn’t start this generation.  No matter how many times you cringed reading that, I can guarantee that I probably did more while having to type that.
