nitroseed Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Just caught wind of the Hawks' new threads: a lime green retro outfit. Check it:It might be retro, but damn is it ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyon81 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Im personally getting tired of the "throwback" scene. Thought it wont happen, Id like to see a "turn the clock forward" in the NFL/NBA like the MLB did a few years ago. I remember my brewers, sporting the jerseys with the player names on the front and vertical on the front of the jerseys, and the Mariners in black/red. Do you guys have pics, remember any of the other teams from that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 You know, by looking at this jersey, you kind of remember why teams change uniforms and logos in the first place. To make the team look BETTER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDunn Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 yeah I saw those unis this morning in the Atlanta paper in an article about 3rd jerseys. they're gonna wear them 4 times this year.The Golden State Warriors will wear the 60's San Francisco Warriors "The City" uniforms this year, too. Best way to discourage retro in the NBA: make a rule so it has to be completely retro...in other words, SHORT SHORTS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc49erfan15 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Wow, I still don't know how they moved or even felt dignified in nut-huggers...To whoever started wearing longer shorts, THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac the Knife Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 God, and I thought some of the past Hawks current color scheme looks were bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Don't damn all throwbacks just becase a few are awful and should stay in the past...This being one of them...But there is nothing wrong with a team celebrating it's past... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Just caught wind of the Hawks' new threads: a lime green retro outfit. Check it:It might be retro, but damn is it ugly.i have no problem with throwbacks, however u should only bring back uniforms that look nice. the hawks could have gone with their unis thay had before the current logo. jqk is right. dont trash throwbacks becuse there are a few bad designs. teams come up with bad unis today, and they came up with bad unis years ago.

STL FANATIC Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 These aren't horrible, but I dunno...they're strange...is that NBA logo on the shorts big enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Get rid of that useless stripe, & these would be awesome. Of course, I am biased (lime green happens to be my fave color). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 (I know this won't look good on me) Keep the stripe. This uni is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 instead of these they should have used the jerseys from the days of dominique wilkins and spudd webb. those were cool and the team was actually good when they wore them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbasalmon Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Those unis just scream '70's, I'm half expecting them to come out to introductions by John Travolta and for there to be a mirrorball up by the scoreboard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
