McCall Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I must say, if the Thunder are going the navy blue route for their alts, it's a bold and refreshing choice. You don't often see teams with navy unis in sports these days.Not knocking you but something about that statement seems off. I swear there are constant complaints of too much navy, or some other blue in the major sports leagues today. No?Sigh, really?Was it something I said?Sarcasm, my friend. It's called sarcasm.can we confirm those are the brooklynettes' uniforms?I must say, if the Thunder are going the navy blue route for their alts, it's a bold and refreshing choice.

zpqmaowl Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 EDIT: nvm the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chawls Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I would have to say that both teams look good (minus SA's new alternates) but I wish that Brooklyn had gone out of the box just a little more. Maybe something like putting the shield from the logo around the numbers.I echo this sentiment, including the number in the shield idea.

BBTV Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I prefer the Spurs' look, though I'd still like to see them use a matching San Antonio wordmark on the road. The Nets' look is too boring and derivative. You don't often see modern two-color designs, and I feel like the Nets should have gone that route instead of imitating the Celtics and Cavs. Plus, they need to wear the team name at home.Can you explain why you feel the Nets look is 'derivative'?

Lights Out Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 It honestly looks kind of like they took the Celtics' uniforms, changed the colors, and tweaked the striping just enough to avoid a lawsuit. It just seems like Generic "Classic" Sports Uniform #5,489. Considering how bland the logos are, I was hoping for a cool, unique uniform that popped to make up for it. Other then the sublimated herringbone pattern that won't even be visible on TV, these uniforms completely fail in that regard.

Conrad. Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 looks bad far away...u can only appreciate it up-close, which i guess will sell the replicas, so job done for the Nets.it'll be boring watching them on TV though. only the aways are tolerable from far away, imo.

Conrad. Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 SO. AWESOME.I'm glad they have the striped sides on the shorts. Amazing look.Now I'm gonna have to draft a Nugget in fantasy basketball, so I can buy their alt jersey and support them all season!BONUS: a cool marketing campaign logotype for the Nuggs this season: Red Goat Creations :: Graphic Design Solutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 That's incredible. Even their Chargers-ripoff color scheme looks good on them for a change. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keynote Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I...dig the Nuggets' jersey and I...dig the shorts, but I think they're too busy together. I'd like the set a lot more if they had gone with a simpler trim on the shorts, e.g., one that mirrored the piping around the collar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the shorts piping does clash with the horizontal piping of the jersey. Overall though, great look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goforbroke Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 RIP PurpleIf they went through the trouble of creating a wordmark that can essentially be read the same from both sides of the court (slight differences in shading of beveling), why not flip the alternate logos and corporate names to have one set face the other side of the court?US Airways paid a lot of money to get the naming rights and they're not going to let their name be upside down on TVExactly. Also .. do you 1/2 the on-court logos to be right-side-up for the 9,000 people sitting on that side of the court ... or have both logos right-side-up for the 100's of thousands to potentially millions watching on TV if it was a playoff game.RIP PurpleIf they went through the trouble of creating a wordmark that can essentially be read the same from both sides of the court (slight differences in shading of beveling), why not flip the alternate logos and corporate names to have one set face the other side of the court?US Airways paid a lot of money to get the naming rights and they're not going to let their name be upside down on TVExactly.

I went to the NBA Store in NYC last week and asked the clerk if they carried Wizards shorts. The NBA employee said, "nah, we only carry shorts for the main teams."Such is life as a Wizards fan.

goforbroke Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Nuggets new uniforms are a disaster. I'm sorry but that look was a joke when they first played in it and now its some kind of sarcastic nod to those uniforms. Just what exactly are they trying to be? I don't mind teams having a little fun with their uniforms i'm not saying EVERY team has the be the Celtics or new Nets, but that is an absolute mess. Granted, its put together well and the shorts stripes work with the jersey design and all that, I could see it as a really cool fan/fassion uniform. But for on-court use I think the team needs to look WAY more professional than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxtrot44 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm glad the Nuggets went back to the skyline uni...but have to say it would have looked 1,000 times better in blue, rather than yellow. Maybe drop the wordmark too. I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
