Lights Out Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 No, he's referring to the mythical regular blue alternates, presumably a color swap of their regular jerseys. Clippers announcer Mike Smith had claimed they had packed them for the Grammy road trip, but turns out they didn't exist after all.

CitizenTino Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 It might be a little too plain for some, but I think this is the best All-Star court in a long, long time. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Weird moment during All-Star Saturday.Anthony Morrow of the Nets was in the 3 Point Shootout, but he wore a Drazen Petrovic jersey top with his New York Nets throwback shorts. The Petrovic jersey even had the Foot Locker 3-Point Shootout logo patch, too. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrow probably just wanted to honor Petrovic, and the NBA probably didn't want to lose the money that they would've gotten had Morrow worn his regular jersey.

RedSox44 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 So far in the Slam Dunk Contest, we've seen two(?) throwback jerseys, neither of which with the Sprite logo on them. Hmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Did the Clippers ever debut those blue alternates?Love the colors. Not a fan of the "let's shrink any letter that comes after an L" style. They could build off that and it'd work much better for them than if the Kings tried to add that scheme back to the mix.

knnhrvy16 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Im sorry if I've missed these but what was with the rockets players jerseys tonightI only saw the Dunk Contest - I assume you mean the uniform Budinger was wearing tonight? That's Houston's alternate, has been for I want to say two seasons (?). In my humble opinion, the Rockets need to make a matching white version of that uniform and make a full-time set out of it. Great uniform that pays a sharp homage to team history while maintaining its own modern design, and Houston can take a hold of the red/yellow scheme in the NBA again. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Removing the judges and having America vote for the winner was stupid, too.Yup...and doing something "incredible" (which means that you wouldn't even make the contest back in the 80s) gets you a win, like jumping over a car.

The Jazz stopped wearing the greens in 1984, according to the mothership.Actually, he did in his rookie season. This was from the Jazz/Pistons game held at the Salt Palace on St. Patrick's Day 1986. I think they just wore it because it was green even though they stopped wearing the greens full-time in 1984.

So it lived on as a "St Patrick's Day alternate" for a year or two. I can now endorse Evans as the champ - I voted for Budinger instead because of that.The contest wasn't that bad last night. Its nadir was the early 2000's when they brought out that wheel, etc. But there have been plenty of good ones the past few years with Gerald Green, Dwight Howard, Nate Robinson, Blake. We need the stars to take part but also need the no-names...maybe the greatest dunk in contest history was by Terence Stansbury...when we emphasize stars we get Kobe unfairly winning over Darvin Ham, Michael Finley, etc.By the way, I'm pretty sure the Jazz still had purple their first couple of years in Utah, the mothership lists green as 1979-84, which isn't right...this could use some tweaking to better document the early 80's and the 1986 St Patrick's Day usage.
