Lights Out Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I miss the days when NBA teams had their own unique warmup jackets. With that in mind (and inspired by Discrim's Bellevue Bulls concept thread), here's my list of favorites:I'd love to see a modernized version of this based on the Wizards' new uniforms.

WSU151 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Loved the Suns and the Magic warmups.Also, the Lakers were classic:Same with Celtics:This Spurs warmup is great I think, but I kinda liked the Fiesta Colors. Probably circa '97? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keynote Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I miss those individualized warm ups. I don't understand why Adidas thought it would better to use one template for the entire league. Sure, it's (presumably) cheaper to produce, but wouldn't individualized warm ups generate stronger sales?BTW, I own two of these Bullets warmups from the '80s (one in home white, the other in away blue as shown below): They're my favorite piece of sports memorabilia.

keynote Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Same with Celtics:I think it's an interesting quirk that the name plates on these were held on by velcro, but I'd hate to own one of those - I'd be worrying about the name plate falling off.

Awesome Sports Logos Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I couldn't agree with you more. I have to throw in my two favorites. The Denver Nuggets with the bright colors and the skyline. Alex English looked sweet in that warmup and the 1980 Utah Jazz warmups. They might not have been the best teams but you knew when they hit the court! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 This Spurs warmup is great I think, but I kinda liked the Fiesta Colors. Probably circa '97?More like late '80s-early '90s. I saw a live Spurs-Mavericks game during that era where the Spurs wore those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGooo Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Oh, this isn't the worst warm-ups ever, even for an Adidas template, thread? Seriously, this year's warm ups and shooting shirts are by far the worst Adidas has put out. I really like the previously posted Magic and Suns warm-ups, those are both awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
