Anybody know why the Suns wore home jerseys in Dallas?

Väldigt intressant,

It's the first time I see a team wearing away colors at home.
It's odd, I mean. if I'm not mistaken, thjose shirts aren't even hardwood classics, It's just their alternative ("sunday") jerseys.

odd...

Really? I thought St. Patrick's Day uniforms were the same as the normal one but green.

Only for participating teams whose colours don't usually include green.

It's not uncommon these days. St Patrick's Day aside, NBA teams must wear their alternate jerseys in a certain amount of games, which means they sometimes wear them at home.

Yup. Lakers played at Golden State a while back and GS wore their "The City" classic uniforms, so the Lakers wore their white alternates.

Thanks for clarifying the point Andrew (and PDub),
I guess in the name of marketing old regulations and traditions don't matter.
Oh well.

And grusom, yes, and I don't know why, I just felt like showing it off :oops:
