    I'm curious what our record is in the Rip City jerseys.

    I'm also curious what Dame's shooting percentage is in those jerseys.

    I actually think we have the best sleeved jerseys with the "Rip City" logo.

    I hate the look, they seem to benefit guards and skinnier players though.

    I'll go against the grain here. I like them. They've grown on me. Most people are reluctant to accept change. I think that's what causes the push back against the sleeved jerseys.

    He should've got a tech for that.

    Having ripped up sleeves looks way worse. The players union should bargain for them to be less form fitting and more T-shirt like.

    You're amazing.

    I guess it's a habit of mine.

    They look like cool t-shirts to me...it's not a big deal. anything that absorbs more sweat is good for keeping the court dry I'd guess.

    Most court sweat comes from players faces dripping at the Lane spaces during free throws or when players dive on the floor.

    Isn't that why the league is pushing the sleeves...besides the marketing of replicas? For advertising space in the future....??? Serious comment/question here.

    I believe so but hope not. Advertising on NBA jerseys would fucking look stupid as shit and I hope they never do it... the whole reason why I'll never wear a timbers Jersey is because it says Alaskan airlines on the front. MF I don't play for Alaskan airlines...

    Also, the conventional argument has been since the euros do it we probably should too. I would never want to wear one of those idiotic European jerseys. They all suck sleeveless or not.

    Sleeved jerseys should be easy to rip so Meyers could do this whenever he dunks or makes a 3pt shot.
