New logos, designs, etc.

Like real basketball, as well as basketball video games? Talk about the NBA, NCAA, and other professional and amateur basketball leagues here.

Hideous. I don't like how more and more teams go for the generic look.

Clean is one thing, generic is just ughh.

Am I to take it that there's regret over the "Raptors" moniker, given that they're phasing out the dinosaur? I mean, I realise it's kind of a throwback to the mid-90s, when the first Jurassic Park was a big thing and dinosaurs were more prominent in pop culture, which in retrospect may not have been the best influence for a new expansion team that was entering the league in a couple of year's time. Still, they are the Raptors, so it's not like a dinosaur logo or mascot is out of place.

pretty sure they've been embarrassed by the red cartoon dinosaur in their logo for quite some time

Presumably so, but like I said, they are the Raptors. It's not like it's a terrible design. The new one is fine enough, but it's a bit generic and very similar to Brooklyn.

Agree.

Brooklyn's logo is the worst. It's too generic. F*ck Jay-Z lol.

The brownish one is for Drake Night, to represent OVO.
Because that's what Drizzy does apparently.

Some of the sleeved jerseys would look really nice if they weren't sleeved ones. Like the silver Magic ones.

A look at the Nets alternate
It's essentially their current jersey with "NETS" instead of "BROOKLYN" and they took the stars and stripes and put it down one side of the jersey

Heat wore their "Black tie" jerseys today. Looked a bit different from their norm, but it's not their best alternate they've ever had

I liked Rockets design for Chinese New Year. But the first ever red colored uniform of Warriors doesn't look nice.

The Rockets design is better, but the Warriors look nice even though the red makes me want to punch orphans.

Would be great as fan apparel, don't care for it as an official uniform. Par for the course with sleeved jerseys.

A shit ton of uniform leaks.

Everything under "Alternate Uniforms" is fugly.
More Pride uniforms, some of which are awful.
Wizards Pride is a bit of a throwback which is cool.
Finally some cool Knicks throwbacks!
Warriors will wear the popular "The City" jerseys this year.

Yeah, I'm just going to bookmark that image for the next time the claim is made that the 90s had the ugliest uniforms.

Yeah. In the 90's, at least they TRIED to do something with the teams' identities. Now it's just swapping the colors.

I mostly agree with [Q]

Repeated throwbacks are boring!

Bucks and Hawks new identities are interesting.
