chakfu Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Ok, just to clarify again, nobody can wear any color other than white at home as a primary (probably a certain percentage of games or something) other than the Lakers because they grandathered in as they were wearing yellow as primaries at the time of the rule.So can we please stop with the "they should wear that color at home full-time"? They can't.Which is why I said I hope the NBA relaxes (or has relaxed) that rule. Having the Lakers as the only one allowed seems silly. And I, for one, never said full-time. Not even the Lakers are full-time anymore. But having what we've seen this week happen a little more often isn't going to hurt any more than Christmas jerseys, multiple throwbacks and invented fanatic jerseys.To me it's a travesty that yellow is counted as a dark/color/roard jersey. A number of teams besides the Lakers have a long tradition of using yellow at home; Cavaliers and Warriors at least. I guess it's a coincidence that the rules were changed while the Lakers were the only team doing it (if it were a more meaningful thing I'd cite it as more of the league's special treatment of the Lakers.) But regardless Yellow vs white is a very poor contrast and looks terrible to me - I think yellow should be confined to HOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Kings hosting Warriors right now. Kings in their black jerseys. Warriors in their blue jerseys. Oh myJust tuned into that. Surprising. This one is pushing it more than any I'd seen so far this year, but at least it's royal blue. Still, blue vs. black has got to be a rarity.

Billy B Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Kings hosting Warriors right now. Kings in their black jerseys. Warriors in their blue jerseys. Oh myI haven't seen any pictures, but I imagine it's bad. Not Illinois/Wisconsin bad, but it can't be easy on the eyes. I'm going to guess that the Kings and Warriors didn't communicate well enough and the Warriors were thinking that the Kings would be in white tonight.

zpqmaowl Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Is it the arena lighting, my TV, or me going crazy, but are the Warriors' uniforms not all that different in color from the purple on the court? 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...

But regardless Yellow vs white is a very poor contrast and looks terrible to me - I think yellow should be confined to HOME.Well, technically both the Warriors and Pacers were using yellow home jerseys at the time of the rule change - in fact, the Warriors had been wearing yellow at home for as long as the Lakers, both teams switching for the '66-'67 season...

Nyk33 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Can teams playing the Nets stop wearing their black alts? You are the away team. Represent your team's true colors and stop trying to blend into the other team's court. I would have much rather seen the Raptors and T-Wolves in their actual road jerseys and have an actual contrast with the Nets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eye Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I do not like seeing the Toronto black jerseys on the Barclay's floor. I like it when the road team tries to differentiate themselves from the home team as much as possible.Also this reminds me of how much of an eyesore a Nets-Spurs game is going to be.I wonder if Toronto was trying to get back at the Nets. A few years back, the Raptors and Nets played in Toronto and they tried to have a "red-out." Then the Nets showed up in their alternate red jerseys.First thing I thought of too; the Nets did that in 2007.The black isn't bad, but the Raptors look better in red.

However why did the T-Wolves wear their black alts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewharrington Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Miami Heat uniform with the 25th season patchI think it was covered briefly, but 'Miami' on the black jersey is a new thing, correct? I think it would be cool to put the little flame flourish on the end like they do on 'Heat,' but it still looks great. Nice move.

habsfan1 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 That Nuggets alt needs to have a blue counterpart, preferably powder blue. That would make the look even more spectacular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
