I think there are sprinkles of all the observations on Nike, built in together. Regarding just supply chain issues, I really think that's the major factor this year.
The way Nike.com and Fanatics is dropping goods, you can tell they are 4-6 months behind schedule. Nike literally dropping "2021" labeled jerseys still, while Fanatics just "dropped" a #20 Rams Jalen Ramsey jersey a month ago. The scoop that the Bulls anticipate more City jerseys well past the end of the season is another indicator how it's going. It goes back all he way to the faulty November release of the NBA city gear.
Also, teams store order stuff MONTHS in advance. A lot of issues people have with stock are major oversights by bad forecasting, rather than Nike itself.
Nike has its own issues though, no doubt.
