TFoA Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 A question about Dallas: are those new royal unis they have now the primary roads, and will the navy ones even still be used as alts? Also, did the Cavs keep a navy alt with this new uni set, a la the NBA 2K10 image at the top of the linked page?http://downloads.moddingway.com/file/4908.html1 - The new royal unis are now the primary ones, and the navy ones have been mothballed, I'm assuming.2 - Whenever a team changes unis in the NBA, they have to wait a a year or two before unveiling an alt. So that's probably just a fan creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's probably just a fan creation.Shame Dallas is getting rid of the navys, unless they had good reason (were the fans tiring of them?).Yeah, I realize Cleveland's having an alt already would be a flagrant violation of that rule, but was wondering if maybe they somehow got a pass or something . Interestingly enough, I've always wondered how the Blazers were able to introduce their red alt in the '02-'03 season, in which they also altered the home and primary road unis. Maybe the NBA didn't consider their changes significant enough, more like tweaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelx Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 By the way, which teams other than Orlando and NO are getting new alts this year (if this was already discussed, I missed it)? As far as I can remember, both the Kings and Wolves are due for them, and I would assume black in both cases. Anyone know anything about this?

loogodude90 Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I've heard from multiple somewhat reliable sources that the T'wolves are getting alternates this season.Also, I didn't know the Hornets are getting alternates - any idea what color? I'm assuming either purple or yellow? WIZARDS ORIOLES CAPITALS RAVENS UNITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelx Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Also kinda wondering if the Wizards have anything in the works, either for this season or the next. Funny they've never had a black alt, which seems like a no-brainer for them. I remember some people on the board doing some really cool concepts for a black Wiz alt, too.

It MIGHT look something like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes. No word as to whether the Mardi Gras alts will be worn as well.NBA.com has a load of features about the new unis, including a slideshow of uni progression throughout the years. It'd be a nice feature, except it's full of errors. Then again, what do you expect from the one major sport that completely disregards it's own history?

I remember some people on the board doing some really cool concepts for a black Wiz alt, too.Not an official alt, just a fashion/fan created jersey. But I remember back when I went to the Basketball Hall Of Fame one day I saw 2 Black Wizards jerseys in the same building(One Jordan, one Hughes), so I'm guessing they were kind of popular. I personally think they should go with Gold again, as Black is boring now. But I haven't heard of any plans for an alt, probably because it's well known that they're considering a color change/rebranding/new name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bri1275 Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Sounds like several of the adidas schools such as Kansas, Louisville, UCLA and Michigan will be wearing the new material as well. I'd assume UCLA, Michigan and possibly Indiana will have their traditional design with the new material but I wonder if some of the others will be getting a redesign. Of course Louisville does every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh1068a Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I don't know how to post pictures, but check out the Celtics uniforms, from the recent photos of the rookie shoot as well as on NBA.com. Is it just me or does the wordmark on the jerseys look HUGE?Forgive me in advance if this has already been mentioned somewhere else and I just missed it.The new uniforms are a slimmer, more fitted cut, which probably makes the wordmarks look larger even if they aren't any larger, physically.I respectfully disagree. Look at these photos towards the bottom. The Celtics wordmark definitely looks much bigger. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Scenes-from-the-2010-rookie-photo-shoot?urn=nba-263124 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackBauer Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Wizards going Red, White Blue for 2011-2012http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5608480I hope it's NAVY blue like the Washington Capitals...we've already have the Pistons, Sixers and Clippers with the R/W/B color scheme with the Pistons and Sixers being very genericNavy+Red+White could go very well for the Bullets Wizards.

The jerseys are, however, much more fitted, which does in fact exaggerate the size.

The Hornets are eligible for (and will be getting) a new alternate this season, which was described above in greater detail.

Wasatch Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 There?s an update from Uni Watch that covers the newly designed uniforms. One of the coolest new features that?s gone unnoticed until now is the new a silicone rubber band on the inner waistband of the shorts that addresses the problem of players uniforms coming untucked.Uni Watch - The hole truth on the NBA jerseys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eRay Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 As for the Lakers year, I just went by this site, which says '01-'02, same with the Pistons' alts. I thought they had been canned, but the site said they were still active, so I thought maybe technically they were still around. I'll update with changes.Any answers about the underlined teams?
