Igor Coelho Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Heres what I've been seeing about sponsors: Changing their jersey sponsor: Los Angeles Lakers Philadelphia 76ers Houston Rockets - which we (unfortunaly) already seen Portland Trail Blazers - which we already seen Played Summer League without a jersey sponsor but I dunno if it means something: Brooklyn Nets Memphis Grizzlies Washington Wizards Still without a jersey sponsor: Minnesota Timberwolves Sacramento Kings And a nod to the Bolton Celtics which apparently are changing the patch, but not the sponsor.

Igor Coelho Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 It draws my attention that we didn't see any Classic uni for the Toronto Raptors, but they are set to play the first "Classic Matchup" of the season. Since Nike already published their release mentioning only the Knicks, Warriors and Celtics, I expect at least some nod to the Huskies for Raptors "mashup uni". And hm... Hawks vs. Lakers could be a gorgeous yellow vs. purple matchup of the mashups.

ThunderCeltic Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 So no "Earned" edition this year? "Earned" only being released every other year?

Old School Fool Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 The Raptors and Knicks played each other on November 1, 1996 and wore throwback uniforms for the 50th Anniversary of the NBA. They will play each other again on November 1st in 2021 for the 75th Anniversary. I can't help but think that was intentional. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Coelho Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Suns are gathering opinions about a concept, but apparently it has leaked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Do the Warriors, Celtics and Knicks get the “mashup” treatment as well or do their throwbacks take that place? This being the modern NBA I’d imagine they get mashups too, especially since the Warriors were early in on that concept a few seasons back. On the other hand I can’t imagine a worthwhile Celtics “mashup”.

I am hoping the Raptors play in Husky throwbacks, but seeing that the NBA likes to screw things up it'll probably be their Team Mashup jersey. 1 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

Igor Coelho Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Swingman diamond Nike logo. A very well finished piece, just like we saw on 20-21 Earned swingmans. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This diamond swoosh looks slightly similar to the one used on Nike's College Football Playoff uniforms. The NBA one seems to be more colorful prism-based, at least at the one photo's angle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugly as a uniform and for the Suns. And being another, superfluous, black uniform on top of that. These "fashion" uniforms should be kept outside of the court.

kimball Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 It sounds like that Suns Azteca jersey isn't set to be released anytime soon.

I honestly can't think of one that ever did this before. Can you imagine if the Sabers released a concept of the Slug before committing to it? 7 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."
