Nice how the league seems to think that whatever way they mess with court designs, it will have zero effect on game play. The next step will be 'dazzle' camouflage .

i follow the logic of needing to have a way for the fan to turn on the TV and understand that the regular season game they’re watching is actually a special game. and altering the courts is a very obvious option in order to achieve that. but!!!! this feels like they went several steps too far…

i know ive said this before but i fuckin hate these cutesy lil local color details, i can just see the shit ass pitch meetings, its a basketball uniform not a wikipedia page, make it look good, keep it in line with the general team brand, thats all you have to do, dont make it dark grey, no offense jeff

look at this celtics shit its got some werd begging ass side stripe... thats made out of the famous parquet! this is toy shit grow up make something actually good

i will say the one time they got it right with this easter egg shit, it looks like a basketball uniform no weird convoluted details, in line with the team brand, but different enough to make you go hey, kind of cool to have the city and team name on there

its a pretty cohesive design which is more than can be said for most of these with tho the drop shadow on the number is kinda left field, aesthetically its really cutesy kinda cartoonish do not like, and of course fuck all this noise
