Long Island Nets -- Ugliest Basketball Uniforms Ever?


Recommended Posts

I was flipping around the dial yesterday, reached NBATV and saw these in action.  My eyes still hurt.

These appear to be one-offs, but I couldn't find the story behind them in a quick search.

 

Also, the shorts are just as bad.  I took a few quick pictures of the screen with my phone that I may try to upload later.

P.S.  It was apparently a cancer awareness promotion.

 

Here is a picture of the full uniform in all of its glory(?).

They're just a couple of color changes from being the Trivial Pursuit Nets...

Somehow still better than the 905’s jersey (still one of the dumbest names in all of sports, there’s literally 5 different numbers on the front of their jersey, why they couldn’t just be the Hamilton or wherever the play Raptors is beyond me)

I kinda like them. They are FAAAAR from the ugliest jerseys ever. Sure the execution of the patch work could be better, but I'll take these over other G-League one-off crap ...

Wow, I am woefully uninformed regarding G-League one-offs.

I was about to go on this whole thing about how could this be the Long Island Nets since they left in the 70's...then I realized I forgot there was a G League team on the Island.  

 

Maybe they're planning on wearing them to Jones Beach later since they look like terrible beachwear.

Save for the advert on the stomach, these aren't too bad as a one-off. I wish there was a better color balance on the tops like the right leg of the shorts. But overall, they're not horrible. I mean, we've seen worse in pro sports in the 90s-00s. *cough*LA Burger Kings*cough*
