    Is this a high school all-star game?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Throw-back jerseys, to when the NBA wasn't televised.

    lol no. Basically the developers of the game have to design and render in all the jerseys, courts, etc for the upcoming season so they usually get to see these type of things first from the NBA so it's accurate for the upcoming season. They have a bunch of shoes in there too, a lot of signature shoes. They get access to all these things from the NBA

    The NBA should go with the video game nerd excuse.

    Nike has the NBA contract beginning next season so they'll look better.

    I like your idea better honestly. Nerds are not only geniuses but can predict the future, lets run with this. They are GAWDS

    They look like those little shirts they make for toddlers. They just need a cartoon basketball, and to say "basketball" on them.
