kimball Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I posted this in the 2018-19 thread, but really this probably warrants the start of next year's logo/uniform changes. This is from today's Uni Watch ... Quote Meanwhile, as long as we’re talking about the NBA, here’s a pair of tidbits that a source passed along to me yesterday: • You know how the Thunder currently have their team name on the white uni and their city name on the blue uni? They’re planning to flip that next season. • Orlando’s primary colored uniform (i.e., Icon) is currently blue. Next season it will be black. I'm not sure what other changes are in store outside of a number of Statement jerseys, all-new City Edition jerseys for every team and then the Earned jerseys -- but, we won't know who's getting those until April.

PrimalCookie Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 WHAT? We are a blue/black/white/silver team, not black/silver/blue/white, which is what Nike is apparently trying to turn us into (the most recent “City” uniform is only black and silver, with small blue accents - and now this news). Does this mean a full redesign? I really hope not, unless it’s basically the original uniforms with a better number font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Teal has said that the Mavs and Warriors are getting new looks. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also believe the Pacers won't be wearing Hickory jerseys anymore? I think I remember reading that somewhere in the 2018-19 mega-thread?

pepis21 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Oh my so now teams are starting to flipping between Icon and Statement uniforms? It's look like we've gonna have a big mess in the next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimball Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 The 2019-20 season will also be celebrating some of the following ... 10th anniversary of the Dallas Mavericks winning their first championship. 20th anniversary of the the Grizzlies final season in Vancouver. 20th anniversary of the Philadelphia 76ers making the NBA Finals with AI. 30th anniversary of the Chicago Bulls first championship. 40th anniversary of the founding of the Dallas Mavericks. 50th anniversary of the founding of the Cavaliers, Clippers (Braves), Trail Blazers. 50th anniversary of the Milwaukee Bucks' first championship. 60th anniversary of the Minneapolis Lakers relocation to Los Angeles. I wouldn't be surprised to see a number of throwback jerseys celebrating these anniversaries -- "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

A lot of fans have been clamoring for the ‘77 reds to be worn as throwbacks again for several years now, and the fact that they’re associated with the franchise’s lone championship makes them the most obvious choice, and almost surely the one that’d be most popular with the fan base.

shaydre1019 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I know Tilman Fertitta said the Rockets were looking into a redesign, and that it was a two year process. So idk if that means new uniforms next season or the season after, but that may be something to look for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berlin Wall Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 But the Mavs won it in 2011, not 2010. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be cool to see a sleeveless version of the grey jerseys from two years ago as one of their alts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, the Magic should always be blue first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. There's definitely more connection to the '77 jersey. I just posted it since it was the inaugural jersey.

Just for fun, actual uniform predictions: Memphis: Original Vancouver uniforms Cavaliers: Either 80s “CAVS” or the ones with the feather over “Cavaliers” or “Cleveland” Trail Blazers: The championship reds, with “BLAZERS” down the side Mavericks: Original greens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I’m thinking Lakers, Mavs, Blazers, Clippers as the 4 throwbacks. Maybe Cavs instead of Clippers. I really don’t see the Grizzlies wearing Vancouver unis lol. A new Lakers HWC jersey that can bring in LeBron money is pretty much a given. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
