Bit similar to our old St Patty's day unis:


Exactly. I have one of those jerseys(#5) and the color is gold but very similar. Like the gold over the yellow. Gold in a leprechaun pot at least makes sense. Yellow?

This version was the best

I agree on the Heat jerseys. Not only are they pretty original (and meaningful in a regional way), but they are [all] absolutely stunning. I already love their alternate jerseys, but these pick ones put them over the top. I am totally jealous...and based on his sneakers, Rozier probably is, too  :P

Oops must have looked to quick on LBs picture. That Garnett Jersey is the one I have.

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).
yeah they’re very nice


I believe they started as a fan design. Then Nike  hijacked it. I use to see a jersey design like that circulate on heat forums

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.
In Florida, they released a speciality license plate for your car you can get at the DMV



ohhhh swish

Kelly will be queen of the Ball wearing that
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.

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.

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.

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

Disappointed in Nike ?

They are notorious for ruining traditional uniforms, pro & college.
Nike couldn't care any less about tradition. Quite the contrary.

As for the yellow - the Celts have traditionally had the yellow (or gold) trim in their old warmups, which I greatly miss, but not in their uniforms.

Russell - Cowens - Bird - Garnett

The Four Celtic Lieutenants:
Cousy - Havlicek - McHale - Pierce

I liked what Nike was doing with the jerseys back in the early 2000’s before Adidas took over exclusively.

And yeah maybe yellow wasn’t on their jerseys, but it’s one of their team colors. Just like black was never part of the uniform until it was, or the grey sleeved jerseys from a couple seasons ago.

I don’t mind adding an alternate here or there (like those St. Patty’s Day jerseys in the Pierce era), as long as they usually wear their customary home white and road green jerseys.
