Notch Novelty Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I was shocked when I saw them, they look ahead of it's time. I don't really like them on tv but they look nice on the web site. Can't blame them for trying to make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydogisgomez Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 maybe instead of shorts, the mavs could wear matching mc hammer pants. CAN'T TOUCH THIS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etown Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I didn't even realize those jerseys were silver until I logged on to the net after the game and started reading up on them.On TV, they look black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umlegend Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Does anyone agree with me now that they should have went with the lightning blue? These things are terrible. When I first saw them, they looked brown(not in up close shots, just side court view). Seriously, I knew they weren't, but they sure seemed brown. As far as two shades of blue not working for 2 unis, what about the Titans, Rangers, and UNC? Plus, this isn't royal blue that's kinda close to navy, this is lightning blue. It's lighter and brighter than the Magic unis from last year (you know, the pajamas). It would work better than tin. It sures seems like the center of the cool alt uniform universe is as far away from Dallas as you can get. In war there is no prize for runner-up. -- Omar N.

TruColor Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Just curious...where are you getting this "lightning blue" term from? I've never heard it called that....and to be picky, the Light Blue that the Mavericks use is EXACTLY the same Blue that the Magic use... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I'm not thrilled with the way they look on TV or in those photos. IMO, they should have used a softer, brighter silver, sorta like what the Nashville Preditors have on their shoulders. I think it would've looked better on TV.

NJTank Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Looking at the latest trend in uniforms from the Jays to the Stars 3rds to the Mavs 3rd it looks like MLBS TATC might have known somethoing about the future. I dont know about you but if this is where we are going it looks like its gonna be very scary and ugly. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umlegend Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I have heard of lightning blue, and it works with their logo having lightning in it. Is it what they call it? No. I just nicknamed it that.Pantone, how do you know so much about all the colors? ??? I also wonder about everyone calling colors Pantone this and Pantone that. Just curious, casue since I started coming to the board I've never understood that. In war there is no prize for runner-up. -- Omar N.

umlegend Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 So, does he have the software or something?Also, I was looking at the Mavs unis and last years Magic unis and have to say that I disagree that they are the same shade of blue. The magic's is more of a bright royal IMO. In war there is no prize for runner-up. -- Omar N. Bradley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 the mavs logo has lightning in it? ??? and was i hallucinating or did Hefty make those unis? i was disappointed in their choice of silver, they shoulda gone with a regular silver so they could wear these at home as well.

TruColor Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 The Pantone colors that Orlando and Dallas use for their light Blue is exactly the same color (Pantone number).Whether or not they use the same textile colors is a different matter...I'm still trying to determine if NBA teams actually USE Pantone Textile colors...

TruColor Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I did this a while back, but here's an example of how I personally store colors (screenshot from my Access ColorValues database):This is Orlando Magic/Dallas Mavericks Blue.I won't go into a lengthy explanation as to what this all means, but all of this stuff makes up a color, and these standards are what teams and leagues use to identify their colors in a way that ensures standards as far as their color reproduction goes...I'll take this off-line if anyone wants to explore this further...

umlegend Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 WOW. Ok thats in depth. I guess they're the same blue if you say so. As far as the Mavs logo and lightning-the horse's neck and mane are in the shape of lightning. In war there is no prize for runner-up. -- Omar N.

random Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 while i like metallic jerseys in general. these arent great, and i like the mavs. it looks too dark to be silver, its almost a charcoal which doesnt fit with their sceme. i guess i appreciate them not trying to copy new jersey, but i would have gone with the bright blue for a 3rd instead.Pantone: how close is the Magic/Mavs blue to the Nuggets new blue?
