Simple question.

A lot of people think that the Kings will have to lose the purple when they move to Anaheim so it wouldn't clash with the Lakers purple.

A pretty cool symbol and jersey mockup can be seen here: http://boards.sportslogos.net/index.php?showtopic=78702


The Nets will likely be changing their jerseys when they move, and the Wizards sound like they will be changing their uniforms this offseason as well.


Who else needs new jerseys? Anybody see some good mockups for jersey ideas?

Those Kings jerseys look very similar to the Wizards gold and black jerseys that everyone in the world seemed to hate, except for me.

They aren't even remotely similar in style or design, just color. I like the idea of gold, because gold is the only other color I really associate with kings.

HOWEVER, a name change for the Kings could be perfect for the Nets possible move to Brooklyn. Nothing is really more perfect. Brooklyn is Kings County, so Brooklyn Kings would just be perfect.

Since the Melo era is over in Denver, The Nuggets should change their jersey (just like The Cavs did). It's a new beginning for them

I'm a Suns' fan and I wouldn't mind seeing some new jerseys for a change.. hell, AT LEAST put some throwback jerseys on once in a while just to mix things up.

We've had pretty much the exact same jersey's for more than a decade now... it's time to make things fresh again.

I've always liked the Suns' jerseys and everybody else seems to hate them.


One thing that I've always been really sick of is the number of teams in all sports that use red white and blue jerseys. So annoying.

The only cities that I think should use red white and blue are teams that are from Philly, Washington, and maybe New York City.

I don't mind them really.. it's just that after seeing them almost every single game for the past 8 or so years since I started following the Suns more closely... it would be cool to at least see them mix it up. You know?

Variety is the spice of life. :)

And I really want to see Steve Nash/Vince Carter/Grant Hill in THESE bad boys every once in a while:

I think fresh new jerseys could inject some new life into the Suns though, while they try to build a new identity as a more defense-oriented team.

Bulls jerseys are fine. I think there are several jerseys that have been so historical for their teams that only minor tweaks should ever be done with them: Bulls, Knicks, Blazers, Celtics, and Lakers (may be another team or two, but those come to mind as jerseys that should remain relatively the same).

The Bulls jerseys are great. Simple, yet distinctive design without a lot of bs cluttering them up.

Plus their history is always there. It's neat seeing a very good Bulls team again, in the same jersey MJ's team wore.

I think the Thunder have one of the worst logos of all time in professional sports.

I remember seeing leaks of it on here a couple years back and thinking it was fake and that there was no way an NBA team would sport a logo THAT bad.

Years later and here I stand, still oblivious as to why they used that abomination as their main logo... :wtf:

Also... the name "Thunder" still sucks. The fact that you can't use it in singular form to describe 1 player should've been their cue not to use it as their team name.

You can't say "Russell Westbrook is a Thunder". It doesn't make any sense like saying "Rudy Gay is a Grizzly", "Derrick Rose is a Bull" "Vince Carter is a Sun" etc etc.

Same thing with the Heat. You can't say "Chris Bosh" is a Heat. Makes no sense. Besides.. the only thing Chris Bosh and the word "Heat" have in common is that he's a flamer. :lol

FTR, Wizards are changing their uniforms next year. It was announced before the season started. New owner (who is also owner of the Caps) wants it all red, white and blue for the nation's capital. Caps got it, Nats got it, the Bullets used to have it and the Wiz will have it next season. (Skins got their own longstanding tradition with burgundy and gold.) Still haven't seen for sure what the new uni's will look like.

On a side note, my inside source (and yes I actually have one, believe it or not) says that it's an absolute lock that the Wizards will be going back to the Bullets within three years. He laid out the entire process of how it was going to go down. So far, so good. Prepare for the floods from the tears of joy that will emanate from us DC basketball fans when that happens. Should have never changed the name and definitely shouldn't have let ****ing kids pick the replacement.

Bulls and Celtics jerseys should never change IMO, too much symbolism attached to them. Change is good when your jerseys are shitty to start with. Bulls jerseys are fine with just minor changes here and there.

03-12-2011, 03:39 AM
The NBA and the world today will never let them become the Bullets again. I would love to see it, but it won't happen. They need something that represents the capitol in my opinion.

These are all probably going to sound corny, but:

Washington Freedom, Washington Stars, Washington Stripes, Washington Glory (like Old Glory aka the American flag).

I think fresh new jerseys could inject some new life into the Suns though, while they try to build a new identity as a more defense-oriented team.

That's one of (if not) my favorite jerseys of all time. In the photoshop thread I requested some shoppers to do a black Suns alternate. (link) (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=167886&page=204) I still like the oldschool ones better though.


Milwaukee should go back to something like this (or at least put a deer on their jerseys):

I know the Pistons jersey is a classic, but I think it would be cool if they could incorporate the horse logo back into their jerseys.. They should keep the jersey dark blue or black, with red/white collars and this logo in the middle of the jersey. I think that would be sick (as an alternate?):

What are you talking about? Neither the NBA nor the world pushed the name change. That was entirely on the former owner (now deceased, RIP). He was good friends with the Israeli prime minister (Yitzhak Rabin) who was assassinated in the mid-90's. He changed the name for that reason.

And yes, all your name suggestions suck. Pretty much anything you get that represents the nation's capitol is going to sound like a WNBA team. Us Wiz fans have been over this for years. It's Bullets or bust. And it will be Bullets. Mark my words.

Besides, they still rock throwback Bullets jersey's from time to time and still sell them at the Verizon Center. It's not like it's some taboo thing like you're making it out to be. Hell, Redskins is a 1000 times more offensive.

I agree, and they should return to the old white uniforms from the '70s and '80s as well.

As for teams that could use new uniforms, NOT the Bulls or Celtics. In fact, the Celtics don't need alternates. Nor do a lot of teams. And I like the Cavaliers' current uniforms.

I'd like to see the Rockets return full-time to the red and gold color scheme. They can keep the uniform design they have now. I hope the rumors about the Wizards' impending return to red-white-blue and the Bullets' name are true. The Suns need to drop the gray trim from their uniforms and stick with purple and orange; it's also time for a new uniform design for them. Likewise the Trail Blazers and Pacers need to drop the silver trim from their uniforms; otherwise their uniform designs are okay. And I would not mind seeing the Nuggets return to the royal blue, white, and gold scheme from their late '70s and early '80s uniforms.

Hey, I like those old multi-color neck/shoulder bands. The late '60s-late '90s Lakers uniforms were cool. But most of all, the Lakers' white alternates have got to go. As I said in an earlier post, not all teams need an alternate uniform. Sometimes less is more.

Change is NOT always good. Nor is it always necessary.

It fits with the Wright brothers, and their owner is none other than MJ. THe Nets need new jerseys and will get them in Brooklyn, and I like the Pacers unis. Well I hate their white ones, but like their blue ones. Why not change the yellow on the white unis to blue?

Bulls & Celtics jerseys are old. "Classic" doesn't mean it can't be improved upon. No one is saying change the Celtics colors to red and blue. They can keep their same look but tweak it and bring it into the 21st century. Right now both jerseys look like sh*t.

Charlotte is in NC, right? I like the sound of Carolina Flight. In fact I created that team for my franchise in 2k11 (navy blue, maroon, and white uniforms)

I agree that the jersey in the Wade pic looks like ass, but I love the concept of using the classic Miami colors. As for the Pacers, the font is awful.

Simple question.

A lot of people think that the Kings will have to lose the purple when they move to Anaheim so it wouldn't clash with the Lakers purple.

A pretty cool symbol and jersey mockup can be seen here: http://boards.sportslogos.net/index.php?showtopic=78702


The Nets will likely be changing their jerseys when they move, and the Wizards sound like they will be changing their uniforms this offseason as well.


Who else needs new jerseys? Anybody see some good mockups for jersey ideas?

the problem is that their colors look exactly like the Kings hockey team, and the name obviously. so they will need to change both

Colors & color combinations can be trademarked just like logos. Using the Miami Hurricanes colors with "MIAMI" printed across your chest is total trademark infringement. There's a reason the Heat don't have those jerseys - it's illegal.

I'm also curious how deep green and orange represent the concept of heat. If anything the jerseys should be a white/black base with red/orange/yellow highlights. THAT would represent "heat" quite well.

-Suns
-Bobcats (need new city & mascot too)
-Nets
-Pacers (Pacers and Suns need to revisit the 90's)

and most of all, the HEAT!
I think their logo and color scheme are god-awful: too arcadey, too devilish, too "white trash hardcore windshield flame" if that resonates...
here is the winner (but imagine the colors less vibrant, less intense, like U of Miami):

i agree with your assessment of the current Heat jersey color scheme, but I don't like your proposal. The green is too dark.

I don't like green at all for the Heat. It should be colors most associated with fire (or heat in infrared technology), so white/yellow/red/etc.

Not a bad idea at all. Kind of a statement type thing.

Not so much jersey changes in design and logo, but a lot of teams need new color blockings to make them unique. After the success off the Bulls in the 90's every other team seems to use some form of red. I think the Heat would look cool with Miami Vice / Dolphin teal with white and orange (orange representing flame) ... they would be very distinct and unique. Someone here did a manip a couple months back and it looked so bad ass.

I like Golden State's new uniforms, and their return to the royal blue and gold color scheme.

new Golden State are dope.

also I'm all for classic/simple but I think some teams like phoenix should get some art involved, like a cactus or something

I always feel like that's cheesy when there is art involved. I just like it when they do slight art that isn't huge.
