IceCap Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Wow. The NBA finds yet another way to trout out a pointless alternate. Just have each team designate seven official uniforms, one for each day, already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMOSTLfan Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Agreed, just another way to sell more merchandise. They don't give a crap about eco friendly anything. The only green David Stern is worried about are the greenbacks flying into his wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFoA Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 It'd look better if it weren't for the light blue staying on the end of the sleeve/armhole/whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I think the only two days a usually non-green team should be allowed to wear green are:1. St. Patrick's Day2. Whenever they're hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eRay Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Is it just me or does Green, Light Blue, and Yellow look nice together? I was working on a concept recently that used Green and Light Blue together (Maine D-League team) but I figured Yellow wouldn't fit in. Looks great to me. But yes, they are useless jerseys.

It looks nice, but at the same time, it's absolutely freakin' pointless. (This statement can be applied to the vast majority of the National Basketball Association in its present state.)

BBTV Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Other than the light blue (which wouldn't look bad if it was integrated better) those don't look bad at all. Sucks that Seattle is gone and that color combo doesn't exist anymore in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyvoodoo Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 The whole green week seems like the St. Patricks day uniforms weren't produced in time so they decided to wear them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about those, but they don't count because it's more of a drab gold vs. a bright yellow.The more I think about it, green, yellow, and light blue would make for a great basketball jersey. I really wish the Nuggets did a better job of working in the blue... maybe somewhere around the numbers, and the trim around the white panels on the sides.
