Authentics will retail for $299.99, and are much nicer, both fit & quality wise.

You can probably tell how much better they fit from the rookie photos. Not grossly oversized like they have been for most of the past decade.

On another note, any Cavs "fans" left? Photo from today...

Wearing a USA theme shoe while playing for the Brazilian national team isn't a good look.

Has there ever been a jersey that NT likes?

Every year when All-Star Jerseys come out everyone hates them...Every year when a team gets a new jersey, everyone hates them...When was the last time someone said a jersey looks nice? lol

 

[Master Zik]

I don't even know why ppl criticize the jerseys anymore. This aint '03.

Word, you guys are acting like that summer league was the only time he's been "good". He at least can be just as good as all those white scrubs KLJ hypes up.

Stop, neither one of you Warrior fans would breathe his name if he played for the Grizz, come on.  
  

or if he wasnt asian

at the price increase in authentic jerseys. In a matter of a couple years the price has doubled.

Authentic jerseys won't be sellin' next season. The price increase is asinine.

[h2]SUPER-FRIENDS 2: CARMELO LINKED TO DWIGHT HOWARD AND AMAR’E[/h2]
BY DIME MAGAZINE



If this NBA offseason taught you anything, it was that — once again — most of the media doesn’t know sh*t. Or to turn Bernie Mac’s phrase, they don’t know sh*t until sh*t happens …Take the Carmelo Anthonysituation. With every day that ‘Melo doesn’t sign his extension offer from the Nuggets, more scenarios are spun of where he’ll end up next, and more reports come out that are presented as near fact when it’s really just guessing. Today’s best guesses are that Carmelo forms a “Super-Friends 2″ clique in New York with Amar’eand Tony Parker/Chris Paul, or that Melo goes to Orlando as part of a trade that could also includeChauncey, Vince and Rashard Lewis. Great move for the Magic, but why would Denver do that? You’re gonna roll out a lineup of Ty Lawson, Disgruntled Vince Carter in a Cold-Weather City, Rashard Lewis as a 2nd Option, Aging Injured Kenyon Martin and Nene? That’s ugly 

 

[seasoned vet]

- hmm, i like the new cavs jersey's.
 
- i may just make a replica #23 with James on the back just to do it, LOL

 

[mister916]

I'm surprised they took so long to add the maple leaf.

Should the Denver Nuggets elect to trade Carmelo Anthony, the New YorkKnicks are believed to be the All-Star forward's first choice for a newhome. But they are not his only option.
Multiple league sources familiar with his situation told SI.com thatAnthony would also be open to signing a long-term deal with Houston orNew Jersey should either of those teams offer the Nuggets an acceptabletrade package.
Getting Anthony, 26, to agree to an extension is the key to any deal ashe can become a free agent after the 2010-11 season. Denver has offeredAnthony a three-year, $65 million extension, but he has balked atsigning it and is reportedly looking for a way out. Because acquiringAnthony would require a substantial package of players and/or draftpicks, it is highly unlikely any team would risk making a trade withouthaving Anthony agree to a simultaneous extension.
While resolving Anthony's situation is a priority in Denver, there isno urgency to make a deal quickly. The Denver Post reported in Junethat the Nuggets were prepared to trade Anthony rather than watch himopt out of his contract next summer. However, the Nuggets are without ageneral manager after they let go of top basketball executives MarkWarkentien and Rex Chapman.
Former Suns executive David Griffin is believed to be the top candidateto run the basketball operations, but a league source said the Nuggetswere still interviewing candidates.

[shoeking2101]

Whoever ends up with mr.Anthony is getting a real player. This guy put up amost 30 ppg on over 46 percent shooting last year.

Watch the knicks  not getting him or cp3

 

[CP1708]

Can someone help me?  Why would Melo ok going to Houston or NJ? 

NY I get, Orlando I get, other elites with him to help compete, but Houston and NJ?  Huh?  Is it a state tax thing in Houston where he gets all his money, and NJ just cuz it's close to his home, or what am I missing? 

 

[proshares]

Houston has the right to swap pick position with NY in the first round and I guess they might have a couple pieces left after a deal. NJ would have a good core intact after a deal with Denver.
