Maybe if you weren’t planning to purchase one, Then you probably don’t care. I was hoping the swingman Jersey would be decent enough to buy. No bueno. It’s gonna be the authentics or bust.

I've never bought or owned a jersey before, and never intend to.

I'm waiting to see what the actual jerseys look like on players.

All I know is every time a team unveils a new jersey it seems to be 10 times better than anything the Pelicans ever release lol. It blows my mind

If memory serves the black-and-gold scheme was originally proposed to the Association, which rejected it because there were "already too many teams using it".

???????

Trivia question about Bulls 2018 city flag jerseys...had things gone a little differently just a couple of years earlier, this jersey likely would have had 5 stars instead of 4.

The stars represent "the most important" events in Chicago history (Great Chicago Fire, etc), and the addition of a 5th star had been proposed to commemorate the 2016 Chicago Summer Olympics.

Which were awarded to Rio de Janeiro. LOL

In a vacuum it’s fine, but red and blue are about the two most overused colors in the NBA(and branding in general) and we went out and combined them lol.

And not like in some unique way, but in a way that compliments an already pretty boring name with a pretty generic design.

Just checked out of curiosity. Looks like around 13 other teams use blue as a primary color, 8 red. 6 of those feature red and blue together already. Whereas you have two teams featuring green as a primary or 2 that use black as their primary. Really feels like they missed the obvious opportunity to either unify the city behind black and gold, or go with the traditional New Orleans Mardi Gras colors. Or really think outside the box and come up with a logo using a collection of those colors.

The horizontal stripes Mardi Gras Jerseys are great.

Sometimes these alternat jerseys drop and you think they should become the main template.

Miami definitely needs to go to a black and neon color scheme.
