See Red Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 If that's really what it looks like, these automatically become my least favorite uniforms in the NBA. A shame, too, because I kind of liked 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopskid Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 No where on the official guide does it show those beads or whatever they are.That must be just a fashion jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JrSmith Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 No where on the official guide does it show those beads or whatever they are.That must be just a fashion jersey.Could be. But the hornets site lists it as the only authentic jersey, so I guess you can't buy an authentic without the dazzle inserts. And even the swingman jerseys have them: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Could be.

elliott Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 It could be just the representation of stitching.That's what it looks like to me.It is. I own a replica jersey like that, and they screen print on the stitching. They just try too hard to make it look like real stitching, so it looks weird. Dribbble ...

AAO Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Dazzle inserts are the side panels, under the armpits down the sides of the torso--that's where it is the dazzle material. Those 'beads', or 'circle things' are just stitching, nothing more.All things considered, i'm loving their new duds. Great rebranding venture, minus the new hugo.

The_Admiral Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 The Hornets new home jersey is really nice, but the road is too busy with the white on the side and the yellow numbers. It doesn't really match like the home jerseys do.The court is a work of art though...It's really not, though. It's a good court. It's a work of art in a league where paint has been replaced by minute variations in stain, but really, it's just a pretty good court. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eRay Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I have not researched this at all, so forgive my laziness, but I figured asking all of you was the best kind of research. What is the significance of the seat coloring in The Hive? It seems like there is no pattern, and its just randomly colored to the untrained eye. I'm thinking there might be some pattern, or it might spell out something, or make some sort of image, but maybe it's just random colored seats. Anybody know?

Delux247 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 During the unveiling, they kept saying how the greatest thing and the main focal point of these new unis was that the road and home both said 'NEW ORLEANS' on them. They've had that through their entire existence. The only time they had 'HORNETS' on a jersey was during the aftermath of Katrina seasons, 05/06 and 06/07. They also say that they are the only other team that has the city name on both uniforms. The Mavericks have 'Dallas' on both unis, and of course New York has New York on both.... but Dallas does have "Mavs" on their alternate. Aside from NY, the Hornets are the only team that does not use their nickname on any jersey front.NICKNAME HOME/CITY AWAY: Atlanta, Charlotte, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Indiana, Memphis, New Jersey, Orlando(?), Phoenix, Portland, & UtahJUST NICKNAME ON ALL JERSEYS: Golden St., Houston, Lakers, Milwaukee, Sacramento(?), San Antonio, & WashingtonCITY ONLY ON ALTERNATE JERSEY: Boston, Chicago, Clippers, Miami, Philadelphia, & Toronto(?)

The Nation Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Hopefully the raptors black alternate won't have the butt splash filled in with red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRYWHIT Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I've seen more pics of the hornets uniforms and I like them but the Nola on the rear bugs me. I like it on the court but not on the unis. Hopefully they'll lose it next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rich Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Heard over the local news this weekend that in addition to the new unis, the Hornets will also wear ABA New Orleans Buccaneers throwback jerseys on a few occasions this season. That should be sweet. Originally they were set to wear them in the 2005-06 season, but hurricane Katrina and the relocation put the kibosh on that.... It is what it is.

booyahchild01 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Saw this on the RealGM Raptors' forum. Here's some video gameplay of NBA Live 09 with the new black alt. of the Raps. Looks pretty snazzy IMO. http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Rav_9UhOQEnjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
