Old School Fool 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!Make a white version and just make them the main uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb6 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 ya keep that same concept with the skyline make a powder blue, and white and you got a nuggets home set. someone should try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordub Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yeah 'MIAMI' black is new. I couldn't see them adding the flame, because they've always used "Miami" with the plain letters, from their inception. I think it would look bad. I would like to see them change the reds to 'HEAT' though.The only part of the Nugs alts I have even a slight problem with are the short side panels, but they might continue growing on me.

It looks great on any word, to be honest. The 'Miami' lettering looks fine without it (as would any other word), but it definitely adds a little something with that extra flourish in there.

RichNCreamy Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 The Nuggets new gold uniforms are fantastic. My only problem with incorporating them into the main set would be the total lack of continuity between the jerseys and the logos. I would love to see blue and white skyline versions as the primaries, but it would HAVE to come with a new primary logo to tie everything together (which isn't likely to happen, judging by the current NBA trend of recolors and reusing old marks).

DustDevil61 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 it hurts so baaaaaad.... Yea. Why stand out in heavily red-orange jerseys when you can wear a navy and white one? You know, colors that half the league wears. This would be so much better if they added red-orange trim to these. Think of it: Navy/Red-Orange/White--that's a pretty good color scheme right there. That, and line up the pants stripe to match the "Thunder" stripe on the jersey. AKA @LanRovr0 on Twitter LED Sig Credits to packerfan21396 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I don't think the idea behind the Thunder alternates is bad at all. What really gets me about them though is how the stripes on the jersey are so close to the stripes on the shorts, but don't match up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truepg Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 That double outline on the number ruins it entirely. At least they shouldn't have added it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordub Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Agreed. They were bad enough as it is, and the double outline is just senseless.Yeah 'MIAMI' black is new. I couldn't see them adding the flame, because they've always used "Miami" with the plain letters, from their inception. I think it would look bad. I would like to see them change the reds to 'HEAT' though.The only part of the Nugs alts I have even a slight problem with are the short side panels, but they might continue growing on me.I can vouch for the flame because I've tried it many times.

The 'Miami' lettering looks fine without it (as would any other word), but it definitely adds a little something with that extra flourish in there.Got any renderings I could see? I haven't been sure if I've been over-analyzing it being that I've been a Heat fan for so long and am so close to it, but I've felt like the wordmark across the chest sans flame looks cleaner and more mature. FWIW, I've always liked the flame on the original unis better, a little more subtle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordub Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 From the Thunder's website:The new uniform illustrates many characteristics inherent in our identity:• The two-color scheme is simplistic yet bold in the dominant use of navy blue and white.• The unique vertical presentation of the word ‘T-H-U-N-D-E-R’ demonstrates strength and illustrates the rising nature of our team and community.• The font used for numbers and letters are consistent with our current uniform while the script ‘Oklahoma City’ on the shorts provides a classic, yet modern, application.• The vertical ‘O-K-C’ on the shorts embraces the organic and loyal support of our fans who chant those letters throughout home games.Overall, the minimalist design and clean lines are timeless and reflect the personality of our industrious, hard-working, proud and committed community.Wow these marketing departments overthink their descriptions and reasons-behind. Clearly they wanted to capitalize on the faux-back movement, despite having no history. That's it. Who looks at vertical lettering and thinks "strength?"
