I kind of like them, but then again I'm partial to anything in green.

Note: I apologize in advance if there is already a thread on this.

I think they look pretty strange....

Can't do it, sleeved jerseys will soon be banned by the NBA because Lebron cried about them

I just dont like sleeved jerseys. The don't look basketball to me. And if I was an NBA player and had to play in one I would hate it.

[celtic -_- pride]

this needs to stop. i feel like the nba is trying these out just in case they eventually do put adds on jerseys. sleeves = more add space.

Who says they have to be tight?  Can't the players just choose a size that fits them but doesn't restrict movement?
I don't get all the complaining by the players about the shirted jersey.

I mean wouldn't a very high percentage of bball players have grown up practicing, and playing pick up games in tshirts?  I know I did.

I always preferred sleeveless when I played.

i remember when i would play i hated playing in certain shirts because they would tug on me when going up for a jump shot but i eventually stopped wearing those ones. i always prefer playing without a shirt or in tank/jersey. i would think they did enough research and development so it wouldn't be a problem to the players but they are just incredibly ugly to look at from a fan point of view. i remember when they were first released and a GSW fan bought one and took a picture and he looked incredibly awkward in it.

NBA are total ****s. Making spanish jerseys El Heat,Los Spurs. Making nickname jerseys, Now making sleeved ones,just so they can make more money off suckers.

The sleeves will eventually become everyday jerseys so they can stick big mac commercials on there. "Hey kids the food of champions and world class athletes, MacDonalds!"

It really is sickening .....

Personally, I think they are a terrible on-court look.  Not something I would buy and/or wear either.

Beyond that, I suspect the players may get 'fed up' with them eventually.  There is good reason basketball jerseys have always been sleeveless.

I'd love it if someone with some clout (i.e. Lebron) had the cohones to push back against the league.  He should have insisted on wearing his black mask too, it looked hella cool.  The NBA officials make terrible 'fashion police'.  No good sense at all.

yuck

Yeah.  Gives them more jersey real estate for sponsors.

Dislike the sleeved jerseys. Having said that, compared to some of the other teams sleeved versions, the C's one looks pretty good (comparatively speaking)

[AshyLarry]

Only fat people should wear sleeves while playing basketball. Stop taking this away from us!!! And they're just not kosher to me. Pretty ugly.
