I'd try to give them a shot. But they are just awful! Especially when they don't match the shorts. When they wear the white ones they look like a bunch of Vin Diesel wanna be's trying to play basketball.

It almost looks like they all went to Old Navy right before their pick up came and got super tight matching V-Necks to play in.   

I don't mind them having different style tanks, thats fine with me. But the Tee's just need to go. I wasn't too sure if cared for them when GSW wore them, but the unmatching shirt/short thing just bugs me.

Just a horrible design and horrible marketing by who ever approved it in the NBA office.

agreed. someone on here made a comment saying it was made to appeal better to the general population to sell jerseys. People would rather wear a shirt than the tank top style jerseys.

  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.

Yup. I think the biggest problem is the cost for jerseys. T-shirts are probably more popular because they are inexpensive as opposed to 50 dollar jerseys.

What I don't get is why they'd make T-shirt/Jersey hybrids. I checked and they cost the same amount as normal jerseys. The heck?

When it comes down to it, people are going to buy normal jerseys - not those hybrids that nobody likes.
I like Marcus Smart

I could see that, but are form fitting shirts really going to appeal to the general public. Considering that most of the general public aren't in NBA shape.

Even when I was in shape I wouldn't want to wear those things.

Maybe a team should adopt them if they have a few fatboys on the roster who they want to shame into getting into better shape.
