    If your a Nets fan you know what I mean. I couldn't find a better title for it.</p>

    Its been a while since I've seen the words New Jersey on an NBA broadcast. They even have us as NJ and not NETS on the score.</p>

    I know what you mean. I knew something looked different tonight when looking at their jerseys. Looks like, well at least the pre-season, they've been going with the blue "New Jersey" uniforms as opposed to either the blue "Nets" or red "Nets" uniforms. There aren't white "New Jersey" uniforms, right? If so, they probably haven't been seen since the pre-Kidd days of our team...

    There are no Blue "NETS" jerseys. Traditionally, the home white have been "NETS", while the road blue and road grey have been "NEW JERSEY".</p>

    The ugly red gimmick jerseys are the only road jerseys that say "NETS".</p>

    The red jerseys are terrible.</p>

    I love the red jerseys. If I remember correctly a study was done that correlated winning with wearing red uniforms</p>

    it is preseason, i still expect us to wear our red unis a lot this year. if its a big game and nationally televised game i expect the reds to be worn. we saw it last year in the playoffs we wore the red unis, i think that started the slow transformation from blue/nj unis to red/nets unis. i would love for the blue ones to say nets if they wana get rid of nj.</p>

    I believe the red jerseys are still technically our "alternate" jerseys, if that reassures anyone.</p>

    STILL cracks me up thinking about that 1st playoff game vs. Toronto, where we wore red, and so did the Raps fans.</p>

    The gray ones were nicer than the red ones. I have the Carter in gray.</p>

    Honestly, I feel the Nets should go retro to their ABA look. The all-american Red white and blue is the nicest, they should dump the modern look. With the old script writing in the ball, iti would be perfect... especially when they make a franchise move.</p>

    ^^ you're right, I agree about the ABA look. however, and I don't know why I get this impresison, but I thought they were using the Red more and more at the end of the season especially, and I can see them using it more and more, making it a transition for them, by the time they get to Brooklyn, the red is their default away color.
