johne9109 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Taking my own stab at some NBA City Edition jersey. I'll start with the Atlanta Hawks. I kinda took the concept that Cleveland ran with and did a hip hop inspired city edition. Each letter is taken from a different well known rapper from Atlanta. A-Migos, T-T.I., L-Lil' Jon, A-Outkast, N-2 Chainz, T- TLC, A-Ludachris. On the sides of the jersey feature curved striping that represent Spaghetti Junction> I couldn't get the lines to do exactly what I wanted to so I did what I could. If someone has recommendations on how to do curved lines better please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johne9109 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 Next is my Boston Celtics concept that has been previously posted. The inspiration was Boston's MBTA trams and the North Station outside TD Bank. I wanted to get away from the safe designs the Celtics have been doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johne9109 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 For the Nets I tried to go with some classic imagery for not only Brooklyn but for the team itself. My color choices include black from their current set and the red navy and gray come from their days as the New Jersey Nets. I also decided to give the lettering a gradient to harken back the the gradient jersey that is a current alternate used by the team. I used graffiti lettering and put a brick pattern on the sides to represent the architecture and long time street art of the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johne9109 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 For the Charlotte Hornets I went for the city's nickname of the Queen City and went for an elegant design. The gold color also represents the areas history of gold mining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johne9109 Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 I liked the deco '20's style that Chicago went with this year so I went off of that. I stylized this after the Chicago theatre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johne9109 Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 For Cleveland I found out the Jerry Siegel (co-creator of Superman) was from Cleveland and has a house on display there that people could visit. So I decided to go with a Superman theme. I know DC would have to give the ok but I think this would make money from not only NBA fans, but also comic book fans and those weird dudes that think it's cool to just wear something with the Superman logo. It's a win for everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johne9109 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 Dallas Mavericks get the flag treatment. I went with the city flag instead of the state flag because I feel like the state flag is overused in concepts for Texas teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindsay Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Cleveland: instead of the numbers in the Superman logo, have it the same way as the letters. 7.5/10 buyable. Dallas: We need numbers man. I’d say move the star up put Dallas or Mavericks in the star and put the number in the blue.

johne9109 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 Here's the Cavs with the same number font as the letters. I prefer the superman logo personally. Also I added numbers to the Mavs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johne9109 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 This might be my favorite that I've done so far. For the Nuggets I based it off of the Denver flag, again I feel the Colorado flag is overused, and also mixed it with the old school mountains features in the rainbow jersey that everyone, including the Nuggets, love. Using Denvers current colors also gives it a bit of uniformity with other Colorado teams which I always love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
