They were scheduled to wear them for only three games and that's what they did. Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw11333 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 The NBA over does it with jerseys.Celtics have one of the best looks in all of sports, they don't need a 3rd and 4th jersey. The Knicks don't need a 3rd. Although the Lakers white is nice, they don't need it. The Hispanic jerseys are condescending and don't make sense. The Christmas jerseys were awful. and SO much more!If David Stern ran other leagues, the Yankees would have a 3rd jersey, the Habs would have a "Le" on their jersey, and the Raiders would have an all black jersey set.

AndrewG70 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 If we could somehow convince the Pacers to match their jersey side-panel striping to their shorts side-panel striping then their jerseys would look fine for another...10 years or so.If you don't know what I'm talking about.....Click here and take a good look at those stripes.Navy surrounded by white then gray then gold on top.Navy surrounded by gray then white then gold on bottom.Everyone call your congressman and complain. It's been going on for years.In doing some quick research, I concluded that the error lies in the jersey and not the shorts. At some point, presumably when Adidas went to the high-tech jerseys, the Pacers erroneously flip-flopped the accent stripes on the white and navy jerseys while leaving the shorts stripes alone. To date, the team has not bothered to correct the mistake. The (unofficial) NHL Uniform DatabaseThe WHA Uniform Database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilt Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I suppose we have to accept that we live in a global village. Therefore, the basketball teams do not compete only against each other for merchandise sales but across different sports and probably even fashion clothing. Since European football teams make profit by introducing 2-3 new shirts every season, NBA tries to follow in a similar fashion. I prefer one-time alternates/throwbacks for a couple of regular season games than a full-redesign every 2-3 years. NBA franchises are privately operated business enterprises with tremendous costs (salaries, travels, arena maintainance etc.) so a marketing/sales team would be doing a bad job if they gave up on bringing new products. I got used to it and now using the same uniforms for 41 games seems boring to me. However, I like when the choice of two teams goes along similar line, e.g. silver Spurs alts vs. black Suns throwbacks was a bad choice IMHO. Luckily, for the second game, SAS used their regular classic whites. That said, the Heat should definetely limit number of unis. Unfortunately, anything with #6 would sell.

CubsFanBudMan Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Charlotte Hornets throwback? Didn't they all say Charlotte anyway? And the colors are close enough (ducks from Colorwerx).Then they'll go full time the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projectjohn Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The Pistons were supposedly going to debut a new alternate after discontinuing the red one a number of years back.http://www.pistonpowered.com/2012/02/pistons-requesting-to-wear-alternate-uniform-in-2013-14/The blurb has since been removed from the team website, so it seems likely that may no longer be in the works.
