tbh..I wouldn't take his opinion seriously, his taste in clothing design is pretty bad.

Gold is terrible. No idea why people like it.

After a few hours, still doesn't feel right. Think our 20th anniversary gear has confirmed that fans like the dino. If you simplify it a bit and use the same design elements, you can make something that looks considerably less goofy while feeling like an evolved version. Here's what I mean:

Couldn't care less.

Pet peeve. Sorry.

Actually the full saying is : I could care less but I'd have to try.

http://dictionary.reference.com/help/fa ... e/g09.html

Which is correct: I could care less or I couldn't care less?

The expression I could not care less originally meant 'it would be impossible for me to care less than I do because I do not care at all'. It was originally a British saying and came to the US in the 1950s. It is senseless to transform it into the now-common I could care less. If you could care less, that means you care at least a little. The original is quite sarcastic and the other form is clearly nonsense. The inverted form I could care less was coined in the US and is found only here, recorded in print by 1966. The question is, something caused the negative to vanish even while the original form of the expression was still very much in vogue and available for comparison - so what was it? There are other American English expressions that have a similar sarcastic inversion of an apparent sense, such as Tell me about it!, which usually means 'Don't tell me about it, because I know all about it already'. The Yiddish I should be so lucky!, in which the real sense is often 'I have no hope of being so lucky', has a similar stress pattern with the same sarcastic inversion of meaning as does I could care less.

Murrica!!!

I don't think anyone is going to buy a hat with that logo anyways. NBA hats in general usually suck.

The claw design is the best the team has ever had. They should have kept it. The circle around the basketball just looks dorky.

The more I look at the gold and black, the more I hate it......

The next 72hrs will tell the tale of what happens.

I don't like the hat. But the full logo with gold on the T-shirt looks good.

I will say this...I feel confident that these are going to sell MUCH better than anything we have had before.
