Nobody is disagreeing with what your saying at all. My point is that Dolan wanted to go classic but differentiate it as much as possible. If we kept the jerseys the way they were and kept the font what would be the difference between these and our throwbacks ? Nothing at all besides the piping ofcourse. Nobody would cop the throwbacks anymore because our current joints are extremely identical. The funny part about it is that the Bulls, Lakers, and Celtics HAVE changed fonts and went through just as "drastic" jersey changes as we have but their fanbase doesn't complain because they have kept the same footprint just like we have.Would the Yankees change there font? Never. Would the Jets or Giants change there change things up? They did and went directly back to tradition, as did the Mets. There was nothing wrong with the New York Knicks font, that's the absolute last thing that needed to be changed. Don't confuse "density" with traditionalism, brotha.
Imagine if the Lakers or Celtics changed the font logo on the front of the jerseys? Outcry. You don't mess with that, we are just as historical and mainstream as those two franchises. As far as changing everything else, that's cool.
