eRay Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Not a change, but idk where else to put this. I just noticed today that ESPN has a mis-colored logo for the Timberwolves everywhere on their site (it's the gray panel above the wolf's head). Not sure how this happens but I feel like they need to learn about sportslogos.net 1 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hawks logo on the ESPN broadcasts literally has the eye tilted at a weird angle, and it drove me insane the other day watching summer league.

They credited (blamed?) it on a voicemail left by a fan complaining about the jerseys. Maybe we all should call into the Pistons offices and leave VMs to bring back the red jerseys. https://uni-watch.com/2022/09/08/fans-voicemail-inspires-crummy-new-pistons-uni/ 4 1 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deleted the pics pretty quickly tho So not the Memphis Sounds, but if the garment worker is right and the city edition is red with light blue font, I’m guessing they’ll use that (instead of classic edition) to celebrate Sounds by combining elements from Sounds era with current era, like a mixtape/remix concept. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pistons alternates, outside of the 75th anniversary remix jersey, have been consistently terrible for over 10 years. I can't understand their marketing department's insistence on minimizing red in the color scheme, between jerseys and the awful blue, no painted keys, and super-imposed logo on the sidelines court design that was introduced a few years ago. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't they just get the vector images of the whatever league media website they log into? Then again, I remember one magazine or CNN article used my Lakers concept logo thinking it was the real deal?

pelicanfan Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 i think the biggest crime the pistons have done was insisting on wearing grey for nearly the past decade as their third color it started in 2015 with adidas. these were considered as their alternates for 2 years but then nike introduced statement jerseys and made these as part of their set indefinitely: and the team stuck with them for a long 4-5 years. on top of the 2 that adidas had with theirs. i genuinely think this was the worst jersey in the league out of any main uniform set. 3 1 Quote New NBA court designs by me here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some are okay and it does make the court look cleaner, but teams like Detroit should stick to a more traditional look IMO. 1 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

Digby Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Unpopular opinion is that in a vacuum, I kinda sorta liked those grey Pistons jerseys -- the original one worked because I like the Georgetown scheme and wouldn't mind seeing someone do it in the NBA, the second one worked because it still had classic Pistons colors presented in a slightly different manner, either was better than the team's odd dalliances with navy or black. But that doesn't take priority over the fact that the Pistons' third jersey always ought to be red. I think they've taken the current branding with the soft, pillowy typeface about as far as it can go, anyway. They really missed the boat when retro-minimal was the trend du jour, they had the perfect history to do it. One of the many ways that franchise has been flailing for so many years. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JELKK Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 What made the original 2015-17 gray Pistons uniforms work well, was the Color scheme (intentionally or not) being reminiscent of GM Auto factory worker uniforms. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
