this is a fail because the NBA has already said it will be similar to the All star jerseys from this year




All logos will be similar to the KIA logo seen in the pic from the All - Star game

Then change NBA to NFL. You won't tolerate it?

Isn't this what the NBA is going to? I thought they were only going to allow a patch where the NBA logo used to be. I may be wrong...

Do yourself a favor and go watch:

The 2013 NBA Finals games 5-7

The 2014 NBA Finals game 1, 3, and 5

The 2016 Western Conference Finals

The 2016 NBA Finals games 5-7

Some good ones you've missed but anyone can enjoy

The NBA is going to put advertisements on the jerseys... but they are only selling 1 small patch on the shoulder. It will look like this, except replace the NBA Finals logo with a sponsor logo:




That's it.

The Philadelphia 76ers were the first team to jump on board, signing a deal with Stubhub.

This is what their jerseys will look like:









It's just a little patch.

What? Lol, all I've watched since 2012 is the Finals?

Also, the small Kia logo isn't bad at all. The huge Visa one is horrible.

Well the NBA is going with the small Kia logo and NOT the huge Visa one so we're good.

I thought the advertisement is only going to be like 4x4 or something and in a designated place.

just a taste of what NBA jerseys may look like in the near future if/when advertisements are placed on nba jerseys
1. They won't actually look like that Ginobli pic. It'll be much smaller

2. They've used it in All Star games I believe and most don't even notice, and no one has cared.

3. No one actually cares. No one will watch less. A few may buy less jerseys, which the NBA won't care about because the losses won't even come close to the revenue gained with the ads on the jersey.

I'm all for this.

However the sad thing is you would hope that jersey advertising would cut down on commercial breaks in theory. But they won't because of greed of the Networks and Cable Providers.

that has name of team, then below, a number, then the sponsor, what an abortion



Is everyone aware that this pic the OP used isn't what an actual NBA jersey will look like?

It'll be like a 2 inch square on the shoulder

My bad, was reading too fast and mis-read

I did include a WCF in there.

Agreed on both counts.

I don't like having ads on the jerseys, but it's happening and I understand the reasoning behind it. I've accepted it.

Just hope it never gets to be like that Visa logo

You are so wrong with this post. The ads won't be anything like that Visa ad.
