-kj Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 Didn't Reggie Miller wear these jerseys when they were around the first time? Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Discrim Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 the jersey by itself isn't worth writing home about. basically, the shorts make this pistons jersey go-they rule....they gonna be killin em and Phila, to answer that these were the pre-Isiah homes.

IceCap Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 those pistons unis are nice. imo they should use 'em full time to make the connection between the pistons and the lightning (both teams are owned by the same guy).

But then, why not have the Lightning have a horse on their unis? I'm glad he keeps them separate.I like how they've made the horse from the teal era into a red-and-blue secondary for the team now - I hope they keep the current unis.

KennyRock Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Right, that fact that it made no sense was my point. If there's a way to add lightning without making the jersey/logo more complicated, fine - but the only way I can see it would be making things more complex, and the NBA doesn't need more complexity in the unis than it already has.

JamesCraven Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Those Pistons' unis were in vogue when Dickie V, baby was coaching the Pistons. He was fired early in the 1979-80 campaign, the worst in franchise history, and headed to ESPN shortly after that. Those uniforms must have brought back bad memories for him.

Puckguy14 Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Those Pistons' unis were in vogue when Dickie V, baby was coaching the Pistons. Oh you can't be serious! Those are crazy jerseys baby! The kids wearing them today weren't even diaper dandies! I saw some at a local store here. Actually the dark navy blues, which made me wonder if the Pistons were going with these, like they would with a PTPer! I think that's all the Dick Vitale catchphrases I can think of, and yet I don't even watch college basketball. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mings Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 i like the pistons throwback, but the whole lightning thing is kinda off in regards to the team, unless its represents the spark from a spark plug (perhaps?). the pacers throwbacks are ok, i think they should have gone with the flo jo design, cause that was one of the best unis in history.

smith03 Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 I would like to know why the NBA can not coordinate home and road retros with the home and away teams. Why have the game in Indiana but have the Pacers in the road retros while Detroit in their home retros? Just say NO to gray facemasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I was thinking of buying more than one, and on the inside all I heard was "the Trifectah baby! " so I bought three. Then I saw a Terrell Owens jersey and some fat guy next to me seeing my conflict yells, "Get the TO baby, get the TO!". OK i think that's it .

I believe a "Charger" is the horse that a knight would ride into battle (don't know 100%, but I think this is the derivation of the nickname.) IMO the horse is actually a more fitting logo for the 'Bolts.
