Yes, I had KJ and Barkley ones of those two...though in the purple or black...which were better than the white ones...but I still prefer the versions I posted for whatever reason.



Man this takes me straight back to NBA on NBC Sunday triple headers.. The nostalgia is strong.

I love almost every jersey from the '90's, but as for my team, these were probably my favorite:

They're just so clean to me, I really like the look of those.

This right here, I hated last years Run TMC throwback retro/mashups. Looked like they just ironed on the old Warriors font on current unis and were done with it. Didn't capture the essence of Run TMC at all. Felt like a quick money grab to me.

The black, with red pinstripes are great also. Hopefully they bring it back as the 3rd jersey.

Objectively this is the only correct answer.

Lol its probably because I'm a huge fan of black jerseys overall.

I used to love the black alternates. But now every team basically has a black jersey. It watered down how dope it looked. Milwaukke & LAC should be wearing green & red on the road. Not black every game.

I like the idea of each team having 4 jerseys that Nikes trying to do. & Most teams will prob have a black alternate. Which is fine, just wear it sporadically. I like the colors on the court. Why i love the Lakers home uni's. Always looks good when Bos plays in LA.

I think the updated version before the sleeves looks a lot better to be honest, not a fan of pinstripes

Yeah these are great as well, for some reason we haven't worn them in a few years. Hopefully Nike brings them back.

Let's just hope these are never ever worn again...

Those trees on the neck & shoulder lines, along with the silver/blue/white lettering made those black jerseys pop out so nice.

00's wolves jerseys will forever be one of my favorites. The blue alternates had a great color blue too.

I have a feeling the new ones are gonna be crazy modernized lol.

I actually think the Showtime Era jerseys are the best as opposed to the 70's era that are posted in the OP. The inverse colors on the numbers and the tri color neck/armholes work better than the 5 ring ones on the 70's era ones.

Image

As for most of the jerseys in this post, I think nostalgia is a big reason why people are ranking older jerseys, specifically those hideous 90's jerseys, in such high regard. Those jerseys LOOK like the 90's in general(bad color combos and giant caricature logos on them) and haven't aged well outside of being "retro."

As for why the NBA changes jerseys more often, I think there are a couple of answers, the biggest being money. Unlike the other sports, the NBA uniform lends itself to a lot more creativity from a design standpoint. Because of this jerseys seem to be more of a fashion item than the other sports (stars being more known probably helps here too).

The other reason I believe they change a lot is because a lot of teams haven't found THE look yet. The ones that have found it haven't changed really. The Spurs, Bulls, Celtics, Lakers, Heat, Knicks, Blazers all have timeless looks that haven't changed much. Every other team either got hit HARD by the 90's/00's craze and had to find their way back (Warriors, Bucks, Jazz, Hawks, Sixers, Nuggets, Rockets, Suns), are just too young, or without much successful history to identify with so they keep trying to find the look that'll stick (Kings, Nets, Grizzlies, Raptors, Hornets, NO franchise, Timberwolves, Thunder, Wizards, Magic, Mavericks, Clippers, Pacers)

For example, I like this warriors jersey more than the current one (i am not a warriors fan, just giving an example), and I know I am complete minority on this

These jersey's were money. I love these too man.
