BBTV Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 different view of the kings jerseys (from their site's splash vid):and yes, i agree that those home jerseys are terrible.It may just be the difference between the uppercase and lowercase, but it almost looks like the fonts on the jerseys are totally different. I can't understand the point of that. The road is 100000x better than the home - all they had to do is put the same damn wordmark on the home and it would have looked great - probably even in white.

Firefly Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Was anyone really thinking the Thunder would luck into a awful-logo/awesome-uniform situation like the Rockets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAO Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 There's a couple things wrong with these. A. The Kings were one of the last teams who needed an update. Why fix what isn't broken?B. Why would a team wear the city name at home and wear the team name on the road? They are in a miniscule percentile of teams that do that. C. Why on mother earth is the script white on white for the home? The Kings wordmark in black doesn't look half as appealing as the Kings wordmark in purple, which they had on their previous homes. and the Sacramento script with the multiple outlines looks terrible. D. The template on the previous uniform was much better.Definite downgrade. Boo the Maloofs. Behance Network || ianbakar.com || Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakfu Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hmm no one else seems to think so...but IMHO the outline on the Kings homes seems strong enough that I think the white on white actually works. We'll have to see what they look like in action...but I think they may actually be pretty nice and a fairly innovative idea. I think the black text on the road actually looks drab by comparison.

gingerbreadmann Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I didn't think this deserves it's own thread, but here is what I think the Hornets should have done. (not pretty, did it in like 5 mins.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyHubCaps Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Regarding the OKC court, it still looks like the generic one for the arena. I doubt that the court design has even been decided on.You are correct on this. The leaked jerseys should be official, according to the 2K guys who put them in the game, but they made a generic court because OKC still hasn't finalized a court design.As for Sacramento, that is the ugliest piece of garbage jersey yet. I think their logo package and everything is so bland that it's almost impossible to make a half-way decent jersey, but these are ridiculous in a number of ways, including the wordmark format. It looks like adidas is following in Nike's footsteps for remarkably stupid templated designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arts11 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Very generic. Not bad, just very boring. I'm still wrapping my brain around how blah their logo is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhans203 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I like the Kings look. I like the Sacramento at home and Kings on the road, it's different and original. I wish the numbers at home were purple or same as the Sacramento font, but other than that, nothing to complain about IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D. The template on the previous uniform was much better.Definite downgrade. Boo the Maloofs.Yeah, the switch makes no sense to me. Switching to "Kings" on the road would have been brilliant since the current wordmark looked like the WNBA, however they went overboard by going to the city name at home. That seems like just a money grab switch, and being that the Maloofs own several casinos they probably dont need the cash.As far as OKC goes i dig the uniforms considering how crappy the logo is (if they are real). The clip art guitar pick needs to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerbreadmann Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Whoa, now what's this? To tell you the truth I more believe that this is the real think since the first one and the Wal-Mart jerseys were so generic I think they might have been placeholders. Although honestly I think they both suck. For this one, basically the same jersey on home and away? Weird collar? OKC wordmark?!? And nothing revealing on the court.Damn.

AAO Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 MAN they even stole generally what composes the Golden State Warriors' uniforms!! The little triangular neck piece and the trim look almost exactly like that of the Warriors' unis. Wow. I really can't talk about them anymore without getting worked up. Just sad.

I hope they come back in a year or two, once the dust settles, and make adjustments to the Thunder identity that make it a new classic. I really do.
