    I really like them. Not for a primary jersey, but they look simple and fierce to me.

    Apparently the "statement" is "we need a new fucking design team"

    And I love the alternate jerseys. Definitely need to get one of those.

    The colors just seem weird. The sash should've had better contrast.

    And why does OKC's look like their letters were broken?

    Also, like I think HCP said, many of the "statement" uniforms just look like their regular old run of the mill uniforms.

    You described the "statement" these ugly ass uniforms make in one word.

    A longer description would be that they look like old PS2 graphics.

    I like them. Lillard will look sick matching the color combos with his shoes.

    I'm sorry, but what the fuck is going on here? The top has a "true" black piping but the bottom doesn't? So it's a double black stripe on top (and two different blacks!) and a single black on the bottom. Fucking Nike. How are they help up as this paragon of design!?!

    The side-by-side with last season's reds really puts things into perspective. Those tapered lines SUCKED! They sucked on the pinwheel and the sucked on the jersey.

    Except for the details I've already discussed, these reds are pretty good. But I still can't believe that they can fuck up some pretty simple details so badly. With a few minor tweaks these could be really good.

    Nike didn't design these. They made 'em.

    Are you sure? I swear I remember reading an article where Neil or someone said they were excited to work with Nike on the team's re-design. Given that you work for the Blazers, if you say you're sure I'll believe you... Either way, Nike designers can eat a bag of dicks!
