NBA 2014 All Star Jerseys: (Spoiler Alert!) hideous

[Blazer Fanatic]

These are ugly.

 

[Strenuus]

What's with the soccer looking things all of a sudden? They look like nighties.

 

[BlazerBeav]

This whole sleeves nonsense has got to stop. Can the NBA contract go back to Nike yet?

 

[ponderguy]

Meh. Dame and LMA will be like

 

[riverman]

Really cheesey coat of arms rejected logo from the Game of Thrones flag designs...the W gets completely buried in the red and the purple doesn't fit the red jersey in the west. The east is as cheesey as well. These suck! I don't have a problem with the sleeves though. A lot of folks seem to dislike them but I'm actually a fan of the sleeved jersey

 

[riverman]

Who in the west required Laker purple with gold trim on the logo anyway?

 

[HailBlazers]

This is a joke right?

Seriously! Why they are so intent on pushing them on fans I have no idea.

i think it's blue but since it's got that mesh pattern it lets the red bleed in and makes it look purpleish.

I don't understand how a sport that's played inside, and in a league with 32 teams, can have their All-Star game in the same few cities so often.

In the last ten years:

Houston - 2 times
New Orleans - 2 times
Los Angeles - 2 times

I hate David Stern.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

The color scheme adds insult to injury. I read someone on the forum saying they couldn't wait to get an All Star LA or Lillard jersey. It would not surprise me if they had a change of heart after seeing these. Just gross. Since when have All Star jerseys had purple or green in them? I recall purple jerseys, but the secondary color was orange, not red. There is a reason no NBA team has those colors for their jersey. Simply unappealing.

All the Seahawk fans could wear those ugly Eastern Conference jerseys.

Hotel space. Portland cannot accommodate that much influx of demand. When did the NBA expand to 32 teams?

Bah, I have the NFL on my mind right now.

LOL That is true.

And 9ers fans the West ones? Not perfect but close.

If they didn't have the purple in there.... yes.

I wonder if that's why they picked these colors

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Purple is the new Gold?

 

[ponderguy]

The NBA has a proud history of ugly all star jerseys
93

95

96

06

07

08

IMO they just need to stick with the look they had for 2003

 

[Natebishop3]

Oh come on! 95 and 96 were awesome!

I don't mind the Fleur-de-lis being incorporated. It is emblematic of New Orleans, where the game is being held. Kind of clever to replace the star with it. But that's all I can say that they got right. Perhaps the colors clash as to distract from the bad sleeved design. Two wrongs don't make a right. smh

I really hate the t-shirt jerseys. It makes NBA basketball look like it's being played at the YMCA.

At least yellow and purple are complimentary colors. lol Purple and red? Thank God the NBA doesn't design uniforms for our troops. Can you imagine? I can hear Robin Williams from Good Morning Vietnam right now, "If you're going in the jungle, clash."

Except, it's fun to play at the YMCA. Playing in those jerseys must be miserable. Like trying to twerk in a gaudy bride's maid's dress - train... wreck.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

The E on the east jersey is so jarringly bad

I call bullshit on this. Salt Lake City OR NOLA don't have more hotel rooms than Portland, I don't care what website you look at

 

[Draco]

Awesome! I like the big boy scout logo they use.

Most people don't understand cutting edge fashion, these will be classics in a few years.

They have more hotels near their arenas. We have an arena trapped by a grain silo and a freeway.
