The Timberwolves just dropped some HEAT (or it leaked out . . . either way).

There's an official Bulls preview pic floating around that has the city flag stars at the top of a dark colored jersey. It's supposed to be officially released on the 1st of Nov.

maybe just fuck around and make the crest and/or numbers coogi-fied, too.

But both are stuck too much in the existing home and aways.

Here are some other leaks (Pistons, Warriors, kinda Bulls)

I think I've loved every OKC alternate ever made over their standard jerseys.

i loved those navy alternates with the vertical crest for some reason

Detroit's is perfect for their franchise, dull and unimaginative AF

i guess houston and indy are above average. knicks seems like we have seen it before. boston equally unimaginative even without having been seen before. the raptors ones are cool even if they are simply a home version of last year's jersey. i loved it in black, so i kinda like it in white.

>http://news.sportslogos.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/New-York-Knicks-City-Jersey-Leaks-2019-590x590.jpg

but I thought I saw that color scheme on an old Knicks uniform design in the distant past. These uniforms are supposed to be brand new, correct? I hope I'm wrong in my assessment.


**edit**

The internet is a powerful tool. Turns out that alternating piping design is a reference to an old jersey the Knicks worse in the 50's and 60's. A little disappointing this current re-design isn't completely new, but what can you do.

http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/10/12/magical-new-la-lakers-city-uniform-leaked/

Those "pinstripes" are actually the phrase "3x5xSHOWTIME"

they make the herpes print ones from last year look attractive and traditional.

http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/10/29/new-uniforms-leak-for-sixers-pelicans/

Philly had some of the best City unis last season and some of the worst this season.

http://news.sportslogos.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/New-Orleans-Pelicans-City-Jersey-Leak-2019-590x461.jpg

Here are the shorts: https://twitter.com/S_Woods22/status/1056924890287218690

Looks like a Rocky tribute, which is dope, if expected

I like how the Pelicans' joints call to the original Jazz unis.

That Pelicans joint is a nice idea, beautiful implementation of the color scheme. I'd love to see them do something real bold and brassy next year to follow up, but these just the right balance of clean and loud.

How do you get Rocky from that jersey?

because it's grey...LOL

Just like last year...a homage to the constitution...because the jersey is piss colored yellow...LOL

STAPH!!!

With the Sixers and Pelicans right behind.

admittedly i wanna see in hand how the material looks. if it looks like a heather gray sweatshirt, ok, that's kinda lame. if it is somewhere between that and the "trash bag" Mavs alts from years ago, then it will look cool. I was hoping it would have kind of a pewter tone to it. Down the line I would love to see a bronze-ish Liberty Bell one.

Which, I mean, Creed 2's coming out, so I get the tie-in there.

EDIT: Here's the Sixers official word, which confirms that (also, it looks a LOT better on a human): https://www.nba.com/sixers/news/team-unveils-new-city-edition-uniform-inspired-rocky-creed-films

Still seems like a missed opportunity

Some easy references that would

Obviously...the Creed shorts that Rocky ends up wearing to fight Drago...

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61H2JC1h%2ByL._UX679_.jpg

Probably hideous if they made the jersey match the shorts, but you could make the jersey just a wife beater or the old 6ers jerseys

http://www.nba.com/media/sixers/sixers_jersey_180.jpg

There was the original robe he wore that could've been used

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51tPhvzCQBL._UX522_.jpg

The red with yellow trim and the meat advert = easy.

Or the black and yellow short/robe style

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61moA56l9tL._UX679_.jpg

Simple

sweatsuit grey doesn't make me think of Rocky.

https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2014/03/rocky.jpg

Would you make the connection if they didn't explain it?

Purple...for minnesota...now that's an easy connection right

One man owned that color and repped the $hit out of minneaoplis

but grey...?

you associate the color grey with Rocky Balboa...?

you can look upthread.

(the most famous being anytime he yells "Yo Adrian").

Often times, I find i like the idea more than I do the actual finished product. The Prince-inspired Wolves one is a cool idea, but in the end it’s so far removed from their uniform that I don’t really get it. The only time I’ve seen that work well so far is with the Heat’s “Miami Nights” uni last year

http://news.sportslogos.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Milwaukee-Bucks-City-Uniform-Leak-590x590.jpg

I don't like these designs that are so close to last year's and the Suns was also close to their Latino Nights alternates so hard pass on those. Bucks did a pretty neat job there. On another note I went to the MECCA about ten years ago and couldn't believe it was the same arena I used to see on TV. Then again I guess I am surprised it's still standing at all.

My college played it's home games there, so I spent a lot of time there. Great old time feel, kinda like Chicago Stadium was. They've actually renovated it a bit in the last few years, to the point where the AHL team actually moved back there.

They're still bad

That’s incredibly clean. Well done.

https://twitter.com/nuggets/status/1057847418681679872

really like them. This one and Utah my two favorites.

I have never liked a Wolves uniform set better than this

https://twitter.com/royceyoung/status/1058015829701332992

They should redesign their main set to be more like this.

https://twitter.com/CliffBruntAP/status/1058017458240544769

than it is representative of the Plains tribes, which are connected with this region through native settlements and removals. Makes the concept feel a bit out of touch and inauthentic.

Similar to last year's, but a huge improvement IMO

Does anyone in Charlotte call it "Buzz City" though?

nobody else really calls it that.

I have it:

Miami
Nuggets
Chicago/OKC/Brooklyn
Wolves
Pelicans
Philly
Magic
Everyone else

This is what they should have done back then. The script works so much better than that block lettering did, plus I like the Daugherty area color way with that: https://twitter.com/UniWatch/status/1060573138038255616

https://twitter.com/tayfreddy4/status/1060579491502669824

This has got to be damn near everyone, right? Haven't seen the Hawks, Spurs or Pacers yet, but I think that's all?

http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/11/07/clippers-blazers-kings-mavs-latest-nba-city-leaks/

None of these were great IMO, but none are terrible. I like that the Clippers look like a random background character in White Men Can't Jump.

http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/11/07/the-main-event-grizzlies-unveil-wrestling-inspired-uniforms/

Thought it was a corny idea, but I gotta admit the championship belt shorts are a nice touch.

Blazers is a downgrade

And Grizz is a corny idea, but it's executed REALLY well. It looks great even if you don't know what's going on.

https://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/spurs/article/Spurs-announces-another-camoflauge-jersey-as-this-13371969.php#photo-14758292

Pacers did another raceway edition, this time in grey: http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/10/24/more-nba-city-uniform-leaks-nets-pacers-and-knicks/

Nice ideas, horrible execution.

Which is the perfect comment on how forgettable they are.

http://news.sportslogos.net/2018/11/02/2018-19-nba-city-uniforms-tracker/

With the full unis, those Clipper unis look better. Rockets and Suns, too.

Like, I thought the Wolves was purple on black, which was nice enough. Seeing that it's really a deep purple? MAN.

Same, the Knicks jerseys reminded me of like 90s Mets replica jerseys. But seeing that it's actually a navy jersey makes all the difference

Or at least a slightly adjusted version of it. Again, it's a little too southwestern-leaning, but they can tweak it a bit and fix it.

Or are official NBA socks still impossible to get?
