I thought its was supposed to be some type of silver added. Looks the same.

Those are our association and icon jerseys, so we should have two more options still. I'd guess the "community" version might have silver, like our motor city ones.

Yeah, still though I would have thought some silver would be incorporated since its a part of the logo and not some special color not part of the color scheme.

Hopefully we get some clean alternates.

Yeah so many red, white, and blue teams too.. silver would've been a nice way to stand out a bit.

I was a fan of the Motor City ones, a few tweaks by Nike and I think they could (continue to) look great.

I'm guessing (hoping) they merge the Chrome and Motor City jerseys as the "Community" jersey (Tony Paul of the Detroit News said on Twitter that someone in the organization indicated that the Motor City would still be used), and bring back the old red alternate from the 2000s as the "Athete Mindset" jersey. Conrad Burry on Twitter had a nice mockup of what I'd like to see, although I think gray looks better with blue only than adding in red. I imagine they'd probably use white font on the red jersey too to improve legibility.

Those grays with some tweaks here and there would look soooo clean. I think the blue stripes need to be somewhere else but otherwise they'd be awesome to wear.

Nah the font remained the same but the outline was removed for the new logo design

If you look at the Pistons uniforms of the early eighties, their home uniforms almost looked grayish. I would have liked them to add an alternative uni where the home white is replace with chrome gray

You might then dig the new "Statement Jerseys" to be worn five times this season -

Not sure I like them - maybe they'll look better when worn, as the blue stripes on the side won't be a prevalent - right now the blue looks like it's on the front because of the way the jersey is folded, but when worn the blue and red will be on the side of the body, so the front view will be mostly the grey.
