2016 NBA Playoffs Thread [ARCHIVED] Basketball • Page 125

What happened?

 

Best of luck to Dwight on wherever he lands (hopefully in the east) even though his play can be infuriating

 

The Inside the NBA guys (Chuck specifically) had a real heart-to-heart talk with Dwight about his career. It lasted past a normal segment of the show. It was really weird.

 

Did he just say Isaac Bruce?

 

Good move by Dwights people to make him look less like an ass (for the limited amount I watched).

 

good job, Fred

 

The Woj podcast with Kenyon Martin is MUST listen. Holy shit. This guy is fascinating. His grizzly bear analogy was pretty awesome.

 

Tough loss for my Spurs last night. Hopefully that's not Timmys last game in SA

 

I know the Warriors hate is growing, but just go watch a Steph Curry highlight reel and try to say you weren't captivated.

 

They really need to go back to the purple and blue

 

I definitely miss the mountain jerseys from the Jazz, but most people I talk to connect with that early '90s logo that they are imitating now. Same with the 76ers.

 

While we wait for the games to start, what uniforms do you guys like the most?

 

I am in the minority from a lot of people, but I enjoyed the uniqueness of a lot of the late '80s through early 2000s jerseys. I think the Raptors should keep the Jurasic Park jerseys and use their current red, black, and grey colors. I think too many jerseys today are bland and look the same. That said, here are some jerseys I really liked from my childhood.

Orlando Magic - '90s
Charlotte Hornets - '90S
Seattle Supersonics - early '90s
Milwaukee Bucks - Loved the green alternate with the deer logo
Cavs - late '90s also referred to as the shark tooth jersey
Phoneix Suns - '90S black alternate
Timberwolves - late '90s re-design.
Bulls - Like a lot of theirs. The cursive script and the "classic" '90s ones. Especially like the black alternate with red pin stripes.

 

I probably like the most hated jerseys but even I don't like those 90s kemp era cavs jerseys lol you have some courage man

 

Agree with a lot of these jerseys. Magic black pinstripes were a favorite. Twolves have always had some great colors.

 

@Whatjuliansaid Haha that is one of my favorites... I have two Cavs jerseys that I wear for games around the city (Kyrie and LeBron) and both are the black and blue shark tooth design. I get ripped for it all the time by the older demographic, but the young kids seem to be intrigued by it.

 

Twolves and Bulls were solid choices.

 

I'll tell you one thing, they seem pretty rare. I think because a lot of people didn't like it so they don't sell it as much nowadays, Im sure you see them more around there but they don't even sell those in the NBA store here haha

 

I will admit, I am a sucker for black jerseys. I loved the Jazz alternate from the '90s. I loved the Grizzlies alernate. The Kings had fine jerseys, but they were pretty basic. I have always liked what the Blazers have done. They pretty much just tweak their classic look. Their Rip City alternate was awesome. The Hornets Buzz City is very laughable.

 

Black and red Bulls uniform's are my favorite in the league, but I'm biased. Also the 90s Raptors, because they are the peak of cheesy 90s uniforms.

 

The shark tooth has a small but loyal following. You will still see some classic Ferry, Sura, Price, or Z shark tooths around. Always in black though. The white and blue home jerseys are very rare up here. The Cavs team shop a few years ago did a small batch of Kyrie, Z re-issue, and Waiters shark tooth through the Hardwood Classics campaign and that's how I landed Kyrie. The LeBron one I have is straight from AliExpress in Asia. There is a push to get the Cavs to wear them on hardwood classics night, but it hasn't happened yet. Next time the Cavs are on at home look in the crowd. There are usually a handful of them in stands. I am sort of a hipster about it because that has always been my favorite Cavs jersey and I have always been in the minority.

 

I've always been biased towards the classic Celtics jersey. I dig the current Warriors white and gold one. Love the old black Magic one.

 

The classic Lakers and Celtic jerseys are fantastic, no doubt.
