goforbroke Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Just found out about the name change. It's all falling into place...Now Toronto can take the Bobcats, Los Angeles takes the Raptors, Minnesota takes the Lakers, Utah take the Timberwolves and New Orleans becomes the Jazz once more... Hate to even give this any response .. because every time I hear these name trades I want to throw something hard at my computer monitor ... but out of curiosity why would Lakers get Raptors?

Shadojoker Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I received an email from the Hornets (Bobcats) and in it they keep referring to "purple and teal" rather than the other way around. I sure hope purple is not the primary color. Conrad's colors have purple first. That worries me.I'm sure they will be in both jerseys next season. Look at the Suns, re-branded this season and they have 4 new jerseys.they have 3, white, purple, and orange sleeves, one offs don't count.Teal is right they have 4.. you forgot Latin Night , the black LOS SUNS ...thank you Can you not read? One-offs don't (which the Latin Night is) don't count.Latin night doesn't count as a one off for me since but a regular jersey since its BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS..and my team Chicago has had it every year for more than 4years. If it was a like a Chinese New year/military night then yea.but whatever you say tomato I say potatoNow as for other team name change...STOP THIS!! Hornets only was able to do what New Orleans, or Minnesota wasn't able to do and keep the identity franchise from their location because New Orleans was changing their name and Hornets was kinda new to the area and freed up the name .

Just get rid of official nicknames already. Be Toronto or Los Angeles or Minnesota. That way when the team moves there's no debate as to if the team should keep the name or leave it with the city.Although you'd probably still have to deal with if a team in, say, Los Angeles moved to Anaheim, and then the team tried to keep the Los Angeles name even though they did not play in Los Angeles anymore.

BShaw20 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Will the new Charlotte Hornets be able to wear the retores, or does that still belong to the Pelicans? I remember an old NBA Live game where I played a Charlotte Bobcats vs. New Orleans Hornets and I had the N.O. Hornets wear the teal Charlotte throwback, that was interesting!

Xist2inspire Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I'm still bitter over the fact that New Orleans ditched one of the best identities in the league for a generic, half-assed "local" mess.Liking what I'm hearing about the Charlotte Hornets II so far, though. Tradition is the foundation of innovation, and not the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Charlotte Hornets guys. McCall was clearly referencing the NBA.I'm hoping all the color on color matchups lead to more teams being allowed to wear gold as a primary. No reason it should be Lakers-only. Also powder and other light colors. In fact, a soccer-style primary and clash kit style would work fine in the NBA, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I think not..this is NBA!! You rarely see this in football,and hockey..maybe a lot in baseball. But basketball there should be color vs color on special occasions . Used to be a fan until the Knicks Hawks game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 But I do agree in the color vs color only with yellow/gold(IND,LA,DEN),powder blue(LAC) or silver(Spurs) home uniforms. It would be could if the hornets used a light Carolina blue home alt..I'm sure Conrad can whip up a good concept of it with teal as an accent/pinstripe color.

southpawstu19 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I once knew, but does anyone recall why the hornets original jerseys had a green, blue, light blue, and teal/purple stripes as pinstripes. Did it have to do with the local college teams (UNC, Duke, Wake)? Ive been looking all over and can't seem to find the correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please stop suggesting that other sports do anything to copy soccer, unless those sports are overseas and trying to appeal to soccer fans, such as with the former NFL Europe.

yh Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I once knew, but does anyone recall why the hornets original jerseys had a green, blue, light blue, and teal/purple stripes as pinstripes. Did it have to do with the local college teams (UNC, Duke, Wake)? Ive been looking all over and can't seem to find the correct answer.I don't believe that there was a symbolic motivation there. The original Hornets' uniforms were designed by local, second-generation haberdasher Alexander Julian (before he sold out big-time to mass market interests). At the time, his menswear line, Colors, was rather popular and many of his pieces - naturally - incorporated a variety of accent stripes or fibers in varying hues. Oh . . . . the 80s.
