Not only is color scheme horrible, but the center court logo is....just a basketball? The choice to put a basketball in the middle of the court instead of their music note really baffles me. They have a memorable logo that they should embrace, but they rather embrace a element of their secondary logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They added a ton of uniforms that have been missing for years. I really like the addition of home and away versions for some of those classic sets. Unfortunately they also scrapped a lot of alternates that I liked using. Hopefully 2k20 will go overkill and add every possible uniform combination from each team's respective franchise. I can dream, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact: the Jazz updated their brand to the purple mountain motif for the '95 season, but the new mountain court was deemed too slick and therefore unsafe to play on. The Jazz had to revert to the previous music note court and used it for the entire season. Usually I wouldn't be able to stand such a mismatch of branding, but for some reason there's something endearing about that story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow New Orleans Hornets throwbacks, that team supposedly never existed! What’s with the enlarged numbers for some of these. I bet there’s also inaccurate fonts for the NOB. Can’t wait to see how the Pac Man Hawks have been butchered. Nice to see the Magic TMac era jerseys make an appearance, although the star background on the blue seems off. No Floridians for the Heat? Finally, wrong font on the Dubs Run TMC throwbacks again smh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BShaw20 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Also last season I believe the Lakers wore their MPLS retroes in an away game at the Wolves. Has there been any other real life instances of a current team playing at their former city wearing retroes with the former city name? I remember doing this on the old NBA Live, which had the Dallas version of the Spurs throwbacks, and playing in Dallas with that jersey. I also remember playing as the Pelicans vs. the Bobcats in Charlotte wearing the Charlotte a Hornets teal jerseys too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jazz only used the old court for a couple of weeks. Also, looking back on that court I realize just how much I hate that it was practically maroon and not purple.

Guys this is what happened I have the inside scoop from a reliable source. Stupid Guy running Operations: "I have a really stupid idea how about we remove the paint colors from our Jazz basketball court. Sheep Exec 1: Oh that's a great idea! Sheep Exec 2:Oh wow yeah that's the new trend! Common sense Exec 3: How about we just keep it the same and not have a boring ass Court like Denver Nuggets New Orleans Pelicans and a few other teams?"Or we can change the colors to the Stockton-Malone years? *Executive 3 is promptly thrown out the window* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to this wrong collar for Rev30 Wolves, weird collar for Bogut era Bucks, red outline on 76ers wordmark in blue alternate from 1999, etc, etc. 22 hours ago, kimball said: New Jazz court for the upcoming year.

GriffinM6 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 That is absolutely amazing and easily the best uniform they've ever had. I would love for them use this as a test for a Native American themed rebrand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
