re: New Atlanta Hawks jerseys and gear

Just a disclaimer for those of you who may be confused as to why the Hawks are throwing in the highlighter green color. A quick google search yields the following jerseys:


As you can see, the same highlighter green was a prominent fixture in our jerseys then. The outline use of the green is nothing more than a salute to those jerseys, as well as the Pacman jerseys of the Dominique Wilkins era, while moving on to a more modernized look.

Now, I don't particularly think the green accents go well with the jerseys, but it's not horrible. I personally am looking forward to seeing these new jerseys on the court.

For reference, these in my opinion would have been an absolute homerun had they had gone with a more subdued yellow (photo editing done by redditor /u/p0tatoman): New Hawks Unis With Yellow Instead of Green Outline
