New Alternative Celtic Uniforms

Gotta sell more merchandise, so they came up with a new uni.  Remember those grey and green pajamas?  Well, welcome to Hell 2.0

Ugly. The color has no significance to the team or town.

Just make them green. How hard is that?

Those are unsightly. Someone must be color blind

Can I just throw up a few times and send my money to a charity of wycs choice?

icky

It's a league-wide thing; they do it for every team. Or should I say they do it to every team.

The league gets it's cut of all apparel sales, and anything else bearing the logo of all teams. Ever notice all the websites are on the same template and the home broadcast for every team is exactly the same except, of course, for the announcers? The entire league is pre-packaged so the NBA has control of the product.

Same with the NFL and even MLB to a certain degree.

Welcome to the age of homogenization.

Its a Gaelic font with a nod to Ireland, but yeah. Really ugly if that is the final version, no thanks.

I'm hoping someone is losing their job this morning and a contract is being torn up.  Enes is correct.  Should have left his post up!

Oh well.  It's just for one game right?  If we wear them tomorrow and beat the crap out of MIL, they will look one heckuva lot better...OK, maybe not....I'll see my way out.

Here is the OFFICIAL Press release.  I presume they made sure the light was right and got the colors right.

Is that really the size of the official NBA basketball in Jaylen's hands? It looks like a ping-pong ball!

db,

Actually, Jaylen is considered to have slightly small hands. That was one of the concerns about him, how could would his handle get if his hands weren't really big?

Jaylen's hand length at the NBA Combine in 2016 was 8 3/4" and his hand width was 9".

By comparison, Victor Oladipo's hand width is 9 1/4".

In 2017 Kyle Kuzma, Donovan Mitchell and Semi Ojelaye all were measured with 9 1/2" wide hands.

Now THOSE jerseys are actually very cool!

Are these jerseys for Celtics chinese team? YUCK, Why mess with success they have hope I said before that the Celtics uniform was one of the most popular uniforms/shirts in the USA. I hope these go the way of those awful gray uni's too.

The poor NBA, they must need the $$$$$$$$

I don't usually buy pro sports team jerseys, but if I did, I would certainly not pay even a dollar for one of these hideous shirts.

I have to disagree, Rosalie. In comparison, the bad gray uniforms were far better than these things.

You know how sometimes you see something a second time and it grows on you? You even end up liking it?

Not these.

Get used to 'em. Teams are scheduled to wear their "City Edition" uniforms for 16 games.
