Wasatch Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 It seems as though the Detroit Pistons will be paying tribute to the Late Great Chuck Daly this upcoming season with a honorary logo. I don?t know if they?ll be wearing this on their uniforms or not but my bet is yes they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 is the "2" for the number of titles he won? I wonder if they intend to retire the #2 in his honor for that reason (Hey, some teams have retired numbers for worse reasons than this...Like the Wild retiring #1 for having the #1 fans).I don't know...seeing that "2" there gives me a retired number feeling. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

officeglenn Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 As noted on Uni Watch about a week and a half ago, yes, it will be a jersey patch.They're also going to have "MR. D" on their rear collar to memorialize former owner Bill Davidson, which will be permanent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discogod Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Didn't the Pistons start wearing the "CD" patch in this year's playoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDixonDesign Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 These elements are only going to be jersey applications, not sure if they are planning a night in which they'll honor Daly with a presentation or celebration, but im sure there will be something planned.I love the idea of putting Mr.D on the back collar of the jersey permanently...

robnshell18 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Didn't the Pistons start wearing the "CD" patch in this year's playoffs?This year, they were wearing their 50th anniversary patch, which looks a lot like this one. I haven't seen these until this year. Course, I've been wrong before.

Conrad. Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 yeah, ur right rob.also, here's a view of the back collar of the official home uni graphic:it might be an error, but the away uni didn't have the "Mr. D" on it...nonetheless, i love this move for the Pistons and I also hope its a permanent fixture.

CDixonDesign Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Conrad, word is the away uni will have it as well, in red, and it's going to be permanent according to UniWatch...not quite sure why it's only on the home according to the release yesterday, the initial word was both uni's...
