Similar to what the Warriors did by bringing back their old uni's with a some new touch ups. I REALLY like the look of these, it's always good to see your young up and coming players look like what you're legends once looked like. That's why the Celtics get it... they'll never chance the uniform completely.

Here's Elvin Hayes (The Bullets/Wizards) all-time leading scorer:



NBA's history should be honored with what we see on the floor today, i love when old uniforms make a comeback.

Good stuff. Easily one of the better kits in the NBA right now. Though after last season's travesty, anything would have been an improvement.

they look cool -- kind of like national team uniforms or something with the red white and blue, which makes sense considering they are from D.C., I guess.  The color scheme and design don't make much sense considering their team name, though.

I just look at them as the Bullets anyways.

I thought they were going to go back to the Bullets.

The new owner said that he was considering it after getting all the feedback from fans.

The jerseys are nice. Good to see them go back to their old colours. Massive improvement over those ugly Wizards jerseys, the blue ones and the gold ones, which were just horrible.

I thought they were hideous in the 70's and I still think they are hideous. But thanks for sharing.

Can't wait for the Padres to bring back the camouflage.

I like this one too, but the stripes are classic.

Real nice looking. Verrryy nice. Not sure if the ones you just posted are the alternates or these: http://store.nba.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=11610344&ab=HP_FSPOT_WIZUPDATE

Either way, big upgrade from last year, teal never fit DC teams

Dang, the Celtics could have used that guy this season. Rather have him than Troy Murphy and Krstic right now.  No need to rush Shaq back and Rasheed would have posted Miami's big men to death when needed (see last year's playoff run).

I like the L's tipping the basketball on Sheed's jersey.

Nice, but i don't see how the desig matches the 'Wizards' name..
For the Celtics, i like the green and gold combination..
