Just noticed that the Nets basically stole the Sixers entire jersey design this year:

"Stars and stripes edition?" Nets have NOTHING patriotic about their team, location, history, etc.

Aren’t those just the Nets jerseys from the 70s when Dr. J was in his prime?

Good call, too young to remember those days.

The Nets wore those unis during the ABA days with Julius, and all the way up to the early '80's. That is the classic Nets uniform, and it's astounding they waited this long to bring them back.

Nets nailed their city jerseys last year with the dark blue early 2000's color scheme combined with the Petrovic era logo. Should have become their official logo/colors. The black and white scheme with the awful logo when they moved to Brooklyn needs to go.

Hilarious to me that they probably paid some design firm millions to go with black, white, and grey as their color scheme :lol:

Not to mention, that basketball with the B looks like a kindergartener drew it.
