Wilt Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I'm a big fun of NBA throwbacks and in my opinion it's a pity that only 3 teams use them this season. What I like even more when there is a general theme behind them, like in the last two years (ABA/90s).Which throwback theme would you like to use and which uniforms (only one per franchise, please)?I would like to see the celebration of championship years, which would allow us to see the following uniforms again: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRicSlick Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 In a way the Wizards already wear throwbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilt Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 Yes, but the uniforms I posted are blue so they wouldn't be redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DustDevil61 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 They'll have sleeves come 2016. Anyways, the Jazz had their mountain jerseys as part of this (just selling, not playing in), and I really wish that they would wear them for just a game or two, if nothing else but a reminder of better times. However, team president Randy Rigby has said that "fans don't like them too much" or something to that effect as a reason for them not being worn.

Hat Boy Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 They'll have sleeves come 2016. And a "Los" Boston jersey for Hardwood/Noche Latina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goforbroke Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 The Lakers have thrownback to those uniforms a few times, and once, for 2 quarters, with era-appropriate lengthed shortsThe Celtics - I honestly don't know for sure if they ever threw back to those uniforms, but I think if they do/did it would be kind of pointless. I don't think the general public would see enough of a difference to purchase one. The only big difference is no name on the back and i'd imagine the replicas or even authentics would have names anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only big difference is no name on the back and i'd imagine the replicas or even authentics would have names anyway.There was this a few years back -- was really bizarre to see a gold vs. white Lakers/Celtics game (it was in Boston).http://lakersblog.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c506253ef0147e27fae77970b-600wiFurther google image searching: And yep, the Celtics have worn the green "Boston" version of that too. The differences are subtle but hey, it'd be a better alternate than the stupid black-trimmed one or the sleeved thing that's going tonight.

hormone Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 This uni with sleeves is about as historically accurate as the Rams' throwback with the toilet seat collar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigers6884 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 This uni with sleeves is about as historically accurate as the Rams' throwback with the toilet seat collar.Not to mention how ugly it would be.

cappital92 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I had an idea for this season where every team would wear a throwback from 1984 or whenever they were started as a tribute to Stern.But I also have another idea. While on eBay, I saw some Celtics throwbacks that were throwbacks to the Original Celtics. That got me thinking about some HWC Nights with a 20's-30's theme. Some examples;Nets-Brooklyn VisitationsCaviliers-Cleveland Rosenblums76ers-Philadelphia SPHAs Bulls- Chicago BruinsKnicks-Original Celtics (They were from New York, and their star Joe Lapchick coached the Knicks for years)Celtics-Boston WhirlwindsWizards-Washington Palace FIveLakers-Los Angeles Red DevilsPacers-Indianapolis KautskysI can understand the NBA not wanting to talk about teams that never played an NBA game, or try and sell these for $110, but it'd be interesting. http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes?
