    Might this be a new trend?

    The Warriors will debut the yellow alternate uniforms on Feb. 22. They will also wear them on March 8 against the Rockets and March 15 against the Bulls.

    "It was the right moment, the right team," said Lawrence Norman, Adidas' vice president of global basketball. "Even more important, the right city. When you launch something as innovative as this -- that will change the way the players look on the court and the way the fans support the team forever -- why not launch it in the most innovative part of the United States?"

    The uniform is also made with 60 percent recycled material.

    "I think it will be a trendsetter," rookie forward Harrison Barnes said. "I think its something it will take people a little bit of time to get used to, but once they do it'll be good. As long as I'm able to shoot and move, that's all that matters."

    Makes me think of fat guys who wear a t-shirt under their tank-top

    I think it's kind of an interesting idea myself. If it catches on it will eliminate arm bands and wrist bands.

    Yeah, but from those pictures, these also seem to be a lot more form fitting, so they'll probably have the opposite effect for the fat guys in the league.

    It should be interesting to see Draymond Green in one of those.

    This has George Costanza written all over it.

    They're actually a lot looser on the body than the first pic I had seen Barnes wearing. I guess they're going to be very tight on the shoulders and biceps and loose on the upper body, like if you were wearing a compression undershirt under a jersey.

    Wow, those are so ugly. The shorts and jerseys look like they're different uniforms.

    No Draymond, but I thought of Trayvon and expected a hoodie. The jersey needs a hoodie.

    They suck. Adidas thinks crappy Gap undershirts are the next big thing. Wow.

    Why not just wear under armour under a regular jersey?

    Those jerseys were invented for one reason only: To sell jerseys to people who won't wear tank tops.
