They won in that color combo but they should go back to 80s/90s colors

Playing fast doesn’t equal 100% effort is true and hilarious. Russ probably thinks the opposite

He missed so many layups they sent him to a hand specialist.

addict4sneakers you cop the KD’s and balled in them yet?

Not yet. Nike was giving away those Giannis 3s and I was picking between the 2

I like the new Cavs jerseys. Much better than the last two redesigns.

They do need to add something along the sides of the jerseys and shorts though.

HIM are we letting this NBA-to-regular person job comparison fly or nah?

The colors are cool, but they kind of look like practice jerseys.

Cavs rocking summer league unis

I always liked the Cavs jersey with the ball and basket…but they need something on the trim of the jersey. Looks like a practice jersey with a nice logo.

Look like practice jerseys. There so many better designers on Twitter and IG. These simplistic jerseys ain’t it. Bring back the fun designs of the 90s.

Feels like now would be a time to rebrand with the new young talent the team has.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Nothing wrong with minimalism when done right. I actually see on the white ones they do have some interesting things going on with the shading + pattern on the top half of the jersey. It's not there, or not easily seen on the other two.

Jerseys been lowkey trash since Nike got the licensing back. Teams like Orlando should only be wearing the pinstripes or TMac era with the stars. Same with Toronto and the TRex or AI era Philly. Just slap a swoosh on it give it the modern cut and they’re good.

Baseball rarely does rebrands because the uni’s and logos for most teams are already iconic and you don’t mess with that. Miami lost, Florida Marlins used to be top 5.

If I recall correctly, all of those were Champion jerseys, correct? Are there potentially licensing/trademark reasons why Nike cannot use those designs?

Selflessness

Lmao Rubin is definitely gonna front whatever he gave up

Russ is the employee who keeps everyone convinced he's doing more than he actually is, to get away with doing less than he should be

I know because I'm that employee too

Probably. I mean Nike does the swingmans that’s a call back to old logos, I dunno if the team or brand trademarks the logos. Nike took over in Baseball and all the majestic stuff remained so I’m leaning toward the team owning all logos.

Didn’t even think of this. That would make sense.
