Should have incorporated the shamrock or leprechaun. Hate the yellow. Has nothing to do with team color or history.  Feels more like Norte Dame.

I'm not sure they'll necessarily be worn in the playoffs.  The earned jerseys were given to the 16 teams that made the playoffs last year.   I do know that they'll supposedly be wearing them on Xmas day, though.

Either way, I hate 'em.

Boston doesnt have the sexiest color scheme, but I dont hate them. Reserving judgment till I see how Baynes looks in it.

Laker colors don't belong on Celtics jerseys. That's all I've got to say about that.

I don't have strong feelings about this but look at what the Heat get to rock:



They should remake GTA Vice City just to make this an unlockable.

Not a fan of this or the city jersey. I'm not a traditionalist, I just think we can do more with it than we have.

I guess they could be worse, really surprised with how disappointed I’ve been with Nike.

Isn’t yellow part of the original Celtics logo? Like the Red signature.

This is a bad Christmas Day jersey. I like when they had the red outlining and the snowflake around the NBA logo.

Yet another failed attempt at an alternate jersey design for the Celtics. That's not even the right shade of gold for the Celtics (way too yellow). Nike has had way more swings and misses than hits with the Celtics jerseys. The only one I can think of that Nike designed that was any good were those christmas jerseys with the cursive writing.

You'd think it wouldn't be so difficult to design a decent alternate for the Celtics, but rarely has anyone come up with a good design.

Those Miami 'Vice' Heat jerseys are something to behold.  Those have to be one of the better NBA jersey designs in a long time (both the white and pink versions).

Honestly the color scheme they have on those Vice uniforms should be their primary uniforms. 

Both the black version and white version are awesome.  These are great too.





If I'm a Heat fan, I'm starting a petition to make those 3 our main jerseys.

Maybe my eyes are deceiving me, but the lettering looks far more like a gold color than the yellow color of the newest jerseys.  I'd be okay with that look if they ditched the stupid sleeves, and used a different font to distinguish them from the traditional 'road' greens.

Too much yellow instead of gold in the lettering
