For a league that prides itself on its offseason, it's been pretty quiet for a month or so. This would be the perfect time. There are 14 teams with new statements....what if they released a new one every 3 days until the season started or something. Training camp starts in a couple of weeks, I'm sure we'll see a number of unveilings soon enough ... if not on Media Day "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

They did once upon a time but that went away -- believe it was decided that the teams were better off coordinating their own unveils, rather than making it a league thing. Maybe because they sell more gear to the locals than to us nerds who just are looking for something to talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Memphis were to revisit the “Express” idea today, the NBA would be all ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 This doesn't sound real...but it was also reported in a USA Today column (that talked about LeBron's custom Crenshaw jersey): @Conrad yay or nay? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Nope. LeBron is wearing a Chinese knock-off uniform and the team will not be wearing that other uniform this season.

pelicanfan Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Seems confirmed true looking at this video of coach Alvin Gentry talking. Which means rip to the 2018-19 court which had a lighter wood and darker stain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froob Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I hope the yellow jersey becoming the warriors statement jersey means a lot more yellow and less black. Warriors should embrace yellow as one of their primary colors. Looks great on the yellow court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I just checked NBA 2K20 and yeah, the Nets suddenly have a brand new court. I want to say the Nets court is for the City uniform due to how crazy it looks but it shows up for the Icon and Association uniforms. Looks like we will be getting the first colored hardwood in league history. This definitely wasn't in the leak of the courts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's assigning it to the Icon/Association because the City hasn't been released yet? I feel like this is going to get officially announced in a Zach Lowe piece.

I assume it could be a glitch or mistake but it would be a very weird one to make because I haven't seen 2K Sports do this before. I mean I guess there's a first time for everything. I think we need Conrad to weigh in on this because until the Nets confirm it themselves, that would be the only way to know what's what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Around the Horn Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 That court is the best way to "honor" the subway without getting a cease and desist from the MTA for using their logos and symbols... As for that B in a basketball logo, I always felt like it reminded me of the B train bullet from day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
