Don't think so this year - we have new unis and there isn't really anything to commemorate. Maybe next year as it will be the 20th anniversary of the franchise.

Green retros would be nice. They are my favorite Wolves jersey.

i thought this season was the 20th anniversary? you guys are wearing the 20th patch on your jersey.

My bad. '89-'90 was the first season. 2009-2001 would be 20 years but, you are right, this year is the 20th season.

Yea they have been talking about it on FSN every game and we get 20th highlights at every halftime. It would be cool to go retro a few times this year.

How retro we talking? Like Minnesota Muskies retro? THAT would be sweet.

Every so often I see a BLACK retro jersey and it makes me so upset that i cant find one on Ebay. Those things are awesome.

I've seen other franchises that came in in the late 80s wear their retro (Heat, Magic), why not us? I would like to see them bust out them circa '89 jerseys once.

I'm sure I could find one for you in some stores here or on german ebay. right now there aren't any available (other than one kids size) but I'm sure once in a while there will be one available.

edit: right now I found one on germany ebay but it is worn and the quality of the pic is pretty bad

That would be great and i would totally appreciate any attempts but i already own a jersey of the one you linked to. The one im talking about is here

Only instead of green the jersey is black. Throwback is what i meant originally, not retro sorry. The original Wolves jerseys Sam Mitchell and co days.

I love when teams wear throwback jerseys. Hopefully the Timberwolves do it at some point this season. I imagine they will... what with the 20th anniversary and all.

I've seen it twice. Once at my first job at a movie theater and i asked the guy where he got it and he said it was wayyy too long ago (this was 2005) and i saw one at one of our home games this year. i probably deleted the game off the tivo and i dont remember which game it was. It does exist though

what about using our friend google?

4ho5ive · Post #19 » by **4ho5ive** » Wed Nov 26, 2008 6:55 pm

i have tried. trust i have tried. but i have never seen it in images or anything. everytime i type in "Garnett black throwback" or "Black throwback jersey timberwolves" i get nothing. There are more "5" jerseys then the one im actually looking for.

that's bad. isn't there a sports jersey (online) shop that you might contact to ask them if they knew anything about it?
