Me neither, though I guess we've been seeing it done unofficially a fair bit in recent years. I think this is an area where the NBA should stick to tradition, though.
It feels like Adam Silver is trying to put his stamp on the league, but it's through unnecessary changes like this, rather than doing things like cleaning up the game by cutting down on flopping and whatnot.

According to an NBA official, the Knicks have now fulfilled the minimum requirement for the number of times they have to wear the brand new, all-orange jerseys that appear as haunted as Halloween.
The NBA official told The Post the Knicks can wear the uniforms a maximum of 18 times this season and no fewer than six times under league rules.

These crazy NBA teams I tell ya, they'll wear whatever they want, whenever they want! I mean, how long until we see teams switch uniforms for the 4th quarter of close games that take place after 10pm on the East coast? Pandemonium with these professional teams when they don't have traditional regulations!
I can't see myself watching less NBA because I might be subjected to the Celtics wearing green at home against the the Kings in their purple uniforms. If it becomes a trend, then yes you can have a point on this, but right now I just don't see it being the Wild West of sports uniforms like you're insinuating.
