unique, and better the current stuff they wear. the clippers need a re-design, and these are great unis to base any redesign off of. i'm not saying they should copy them completly, but they should use them as the main refrence when comming up with new unis.

[Frylock]

Yeah, I'm really digging these. Good colors, unique design. It's hard to believe (and remember) that these came before the Trail Blazers incorporated their trademark diagonal stripes.

I'm really getting tired of seeing all these white uniforms on the road. There's really no reason that the Heat couldn't have worn black.

It's those darn rules that classify uniforms into two groups -- white and not-white. (I believe the Lakers are the only ones absolved from this). If the home team chooses to wear any color other than white, the visitors must wear white.

NCAA's the same way. I wish they'd revive the tradition where both USC and UCLA wore their home jerseys against each other. Of course, that was in the day when they shared the Coliseum and split the tickets so it WAS a home game for both teams.

now, if the Heat wore THESE uniforms, it might have just about the most bizzare uniform matchup in years

I can't see the pictures posted above (if they are posted above).

These are from ESPN.

As far as the Clips returning to these uniforms, I agree. Move them back to Buffalo too.

[Max Power]

Unique design. I like them.

Totally agree with the poster who said the Clippers need a redesign of their current stuff. They have the blandest uni/logo out there.

[schtee]

The Clips' logo is just a sad ripoff of the Lakers' logo. The team name in italics over a basketball with speed lines. Not only do they need a redesign for aesthetic purposes but a redesign would go a long way towards distancing themselves from decades of futility. (winning games would accomplish that as well)

Only if they made the teams where the shorts the length they were when the throwbacks were. I'd be so happy.

I know when the Suns debuted the orange alts in '03-'04. It was maybe February or March. Suns wore the orange alts at home and the Kings wore thier road purples.

Don't know if its changed since then.

Wow, those are exceptionally awful. Not as bad as the lime green Atlanta jerseys, but pretty damned bad.

I couldn't resist

I wish Buffalo still had an NBA team

[tommytimp]

Are the jersey stripes supposed to line up with the pants stripes? The photo makes it look otherwise, which looks too wacky for the 70s.

I can't find a good photo of my favorite "stripey" uni of that era-the early 70s "J" look of the Bullets. The first NBA uniform I remember seeing.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Happy=Gay. Not that kind of gay, you sickos!

[gbasalmon]

Surprised they didn't wear these bad boys below. They're double blue and everything...

You could have at least made him giving KG, Flip, and McHale the bird. That would have been more fitting.

As for the team changing their identity, what they need more than anything is to MOVE. Go to San Diego, go to Las Vegas, go somewhere where the Lakers don't play and the fans and city will appreciate you.

And while your at it, throw in a logo/name change.

Either the NCAA just changed to that, or it's not true.

Remember the University of Illinois vs. Wisconsin game a year or two ago? Orange vs. Red...

[Chiefster2000]

Did anyone else hear where the Hornets are going to bear some New Orleans Bucs throwbacks?
