truepg Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 6.) I dont like using 3 colors on the home uni, and then only 2 color on the away. If you are going to put a red and yellow trim on a white uni... you should put yellow and white trim on a red uni.I think it wouldn't have worked since there's so little contrast between yellow and white that the trim would've looked entirely yellow from distance.1.) "All for one, one for all" is incredibly cheesy, but they are carrying that through to the merchandise, court, arena, advertising, and now the uniforms. I think its a smart marketing move, and reminder no player is above the team.I, for one, don't like the fact that they're emphasizing this slogan since it has already been around for several years and certainly was intended to refer to LeBron, and reminds of him. I think they should've come up with a fresh slogan to give the team a new image.The new unis are a big spit in fans' faces, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDiamond Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Not sure if it's been mentioned, but it looks like the Wizards have changed their neckline on their jerseys. I just noticed this while watching video and seeing pics from the recent rookie photoshoot. New:Old: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Are the Bulls going to be the only NBA team that doesn't try to change the way we think about collars on basketball jerseys?Their uniforms aren't above screwing up. They jumped on the stupid "add a random logo on the back of the neck" craze a few years ago. And now that looks great compared to the pile of crap the Clippers just hurled at the wall.woah!! i did not realize the Hawks ruined their collar??!?!?!why!!! what is the point in some of the tweaks this year?Ruined it by making it better? I don't like this collar, but it is much better than the garbage they had last year. At least this is an actual collar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this is an actual collar.I actually like the Bulls logo on the back of the jersey. i think those types of logo work in that spot. The Clippers LAC logo or the Wizards DC logo would be awful there, but the horns of the bull sort of flow with the collar, and i think looks good ---Owner of the NHA's Philadelphia Quakers, the UBA's Chicago Skyliners, and the CFA's Portland Beavers (2010 CFA2 Champions)--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hettinger_rl Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Whats going on with the NBA's jersey material? There's a pattern in the holes on all the league's uniforms. I'm sure that its some sort of "super cooling" material, but it makes all the jerseys look like they have ribs from a distance.Also: The rookie photo shoot gallery is up on NBA.com. Rookie PhotosSeems like the NBA decided to finally release the photos after the new jerseys have been released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasatch Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 The Blazers are another team that hasn?t caved to the ?v-neck? style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepis21 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 That v-neck for Spurs is stupid move from Adidas. Only more idiotic decision will be change Celtics collar to example T-neck or Bulls collar to example Hornets collar. Overall, these changes appear to be top-down regulation Adidas and clubs don't have anything here to talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White is not a team color. The Cavs' colors are wine and gold, not wine, gold and white. Thus, the only reason to make something on the uniform white is to satisfy a league requirement. The league requires the base color of the home uniform to be white, so that should be the only white in the uniform as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure they would have gone with the gold version (like the hardwood classic, which has no white, either) if they could have.

loogodude90 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I can't recall the last time there were this many tweaks, recolorings, and overhauls to team logos and uniforms during an NBA offseason. I think this offseason might be a record. Does anyone keep track of stuff like that? WIZARDS ORIOLES CAPITALS RAVENS UNITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 The Raptors replaced the Claw with a maple leaf. ughhh. =/Well, gee, how else are we supposed to know they're from Canada? Just ask the Flames and (Blue) Jays.

Davey Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 The Raptors replaced the Claw with a maple leaf. ughhh. =/I noticed on the shorts, the Raps also added a red outline around the claw logo. Once again another Canadian team proving they are Canadian, but adding the Leaf. Green Cards anyone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealPepman Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 What's with the uniforms? It seems that many things have changed today. Throught the past few seasons, there were have been manys AFAIK:07-08: many trades08-09: many coaching changes09-10: hmmm....this season: many uniform changesWhat a co-incidence!By the way, this is an unpopular opinion, but the Mavericks "trashbags" jerseys are better than the new ones, and is even worse than the one Diddy designed.
