Celtics need to go back to wearing black shoes. That was a huge part of their tradition.

We'd have to get all 15 players on board every game, I think.  I don't think teams can dictate the color of shoes any more.

Nah.

I love the tradition of the Celtics and hope we never change our jersey's, but beyond that we need to adapt and embrace change in the league and culture as much as possible.

Change is fine. Culture/tradition should be embraced.

it would be a nice throwback to see the black shoes come back

but yeah, its so individualized these days its hard to imagine

i kind of miss the days when a team would all do something together during the playoff run - pacers one year all wore black socks, when that was new. or i think i remember a team all shaving their heads or something like that.

you dont see team-wide looks like that too much anymore

I think it would be really cool if the team all wore black shoes for a game or a series.  I prefer them wearing whatever they want though.  I like checking out everyone's shoes since I'm a sneakerhead.
