Again, who designs the jersey each year, the team or Nike ?

Do new jerseys have to be ugly? Is that an NBA directive?

Do new jerseys have to be ugly? Is that an NBA directive?

Apparently so.

I'm especially appalled that they brought back—unaltered—some of the terrible 1990s "let's go crazy with graphics!" jerseys, namely the Pistons and Jazz (the Suns one (purple) is okay, but not great).

The Wizards one is another horrendous unaltered callback—in this case, calling back to the worst jersey in franchise history.

The other three Utah jerseys and all the Cavs ones look like cheapo practice jerseys.

I like the nod to clipper ships on the Clippers jersey (novel idea, huh?), but I'm disappointed that they're still going with the "thug life" font, which doesn't really go with the "clipper ship" theme.

The second Nets jersey and the second Spurs jersey are '70s throwbacks, and I like those. I wish that all teams would've gone with a '70s throwback (to keep things consistent, and because I generally really like the designs from the '70s).

I hate to say it, but I really like the yellow-white-and-light-blue Lakers throwback. Too bad they didn't do something similar for the Celtics.

• Why green for Portland? And what does PDX come from?

You're telling me you don't refer to teams by their airport codes?  Get with the times man.

LOL. You're right, it's my fault.

Can we also go back to the home team wearing the light jersey and the away team wearing the dark jersey?

I like the Nets and Spurs jerseys from the Dr. J and George Gervin eras.

Since Steve Ballmer bought the Clippers with Microsoft money, it would be funny if instead of the Clipper ships, they had a little Clippy on the shoulder giving helpful hints; “Do you really want to shoot this shot? Maybe you should pass!”

Utah's rebranding is so darn boring.

according to the Celtics, they will unveil a special Bill Russell tribute 2022-23 City Edition uniform on opening night– a project that the league and team had been collaborating on with Russell himself in recent years - which they will wear a total of 12 times this season

Please don't suck.

From what I can gather, this is said jersey.



But with some variation of this patch.

Golden State Warriors

How is it the Celtics have one of the epic jerseys in all of sports, but wear the most gawd-awful "city edition", whatever the hell they are called. If we have to wear one per Nike and League policies, can't we keep them simple and sharp and not stray too far from the regular unis ? Seems other teams have done that each year, our hated rivals Lakers, Sixers & Knicks of all teams (though apparently the 76er jersey shown for this year is one of the worst looking shirts I have ever seen, looks like a bad rec league uni).

Who is responsible for these designs, the team or does Nike force them upon us ?

I don’t love this year’s version, but I don’t hate it, and think it’s still near the top of the designs this year.  Did they use Comic Sans for Brooklyn?

They should take it to its logical conclusion and re-name themselves the Netz.

Those are dreadful.

Terrible looking jersey. Maybe they're changing their name to the Massachusetts Maulers or New England Pine Knots.

I would prefer that.

oh man, what happened to Clevelands uniforms? They had the best jerseys in the league from 03-10. Now every years they get worse and worse.
