(To say nothing of the baseline ads, when the Celtics arguably already had one). I will say that I never liked the giant white circle, but it feels like it's missing something. Couldn't they have just left the inside white like this? 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like they didn't follow their own style guide in designing the new court. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one of the whitest guys you'll ever meet and even I can tell "nah that doesn't fit." At least someone's claiming it sure wouldn't be the Lakers. To really claim it they'll need a new team name. I'm all for dropping the red and blue but we don't need another black and white team. Quote Last updated 8/9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who was born and raised in LA, it was really funny to see the Clippers attempt this at the beginning, but I have to say it’s working. I recently moved back to LA for work after living elsewhere for a few years, and the amount of Clippers gear being worn, Clippers sponsored facilities for kids, or basketball courts remodeled by the Clippers I’ve seen is astounding. The difference from two years ago to now is something that I wouldn’t have believed. Obviously them trying to play into the “bad boy” image of LA is still funny, but their marketing is working really well. I wouldn’t be surprised if the next generation of kids in LA is a near equal split of Lakers to Clipper fans. 2 2 1 Quote Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridleylash Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Yeah, there's a long hill the Clippers'll have to climb if they ever even want to match the level of cultural panache that the Lakers have in LA, and that involves winning 'chips. LA is a winner's town, and the Lakers have done a lot of winning while the Clippers only have two division titles from nearly a decade ago and haven't made the Finals in their 37 years in LA. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDizzle12 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 The Cavs gold isn't nearly as metallic as they claimed and the set is just way too bland. As expected the trim striping is completely invisible. It's not a bad set, but not a good one either. Just "meh"... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BW14 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Yeah I don’t think the Cavs looks “bad” by any stretch, but they sure could use some gold trim on those uniforms. They’re inoffensive to me because there just isn’t much there, same goes for the Jazz really. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having 3 uniforms that are black and highlighter yellow, while using the tagline "Purple is back" still makes absolutely no sense to me. If the Cavs uniforms were something like hot pink and green then I'd group them together with the Jazz. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanfan Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 it just feels so wrong to see a basketball uniform with nothing outside of text and numbers. (no im not counting little sponsor logos or a team logo slapped onto the shorts.) i just dont see a complete basketball uniform, i just see shorts and a tank top. i feel like every team's got something distinctive about their uniform set. whether its as prominent as the raptors chevrons or as subtle as just the celtics trim. every team'g got a little something and its a shame the cavs got nothing going for them. all they really have is a solid looking font that's not backed up with anything 15 Quote New NBA court designs by me here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even some simple striping on the sides would make this look so much better. That C logo on the shorts doesn’t fit at all, looks like it was an afterthought when they realized how plain the uni was 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They built a campaign on the gold but it's fairly lifeless on the road uniform and tertiary in the rest of the set. Not ugly, just dull. Needs something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
