Would prefer to make the Black our main uniform and tone down the red. Don't think they should completely make a new color scheme.

Please anything but generic red. I don't even care if they don't go back to purple, but please get rid of the red. We need our own identity. Red symbolises the "meh" years of our history from 05-13.

Why can't we just stick with one colour scheme and go with it?

There is a reason some team's colours and jerseys are iconic... They have not dicked around with it every few years to sell 13 additional jerseys.

Quite frankly the jerseys have been ugly and basic since they ditched purple

Any change in your opinion about a uniform/ branding overhaul?


Ask the team how they feel about it....
All of them were ecstatic for the first purple throwback night.
The current scheme is way too bland for it to be possible to have an identity.

Laker fans say they bleed purple & gold.
What can we say? That we bleed red?

IMO, when Terrence Ross pulled this jersey out... it just seemed way more 'right'.

In most cases teams with iconic jerseys and colour schemes have won championships and have had iconic players put those jerseys on.

Well said.

Build a tradition with what we have and everyone will be happy in the long run.

All the more reason to just go back to purple & red.
Reverting back worked for the Jays after all. (merchandise-wise)

So?

Build a winning tradition with the jerseys we have and no one will be complaining in a few years.

I'm honestly surprised how much people don't like the Red/White color scheme, I think it's awesome. I wouldn't care if we changed the jersey style, but the color scheme needs to stay the same.

I'd be ok with it if we kept the colours, I just want to see a new jersey design. We kept the same one for a really long time it will be nice to have something new.
