Not a fan of the Heat's. They had some of the best alts in the league for the past 4 years and they go from those to these. Gonna make them seem worse no matter what.

Was hoping for more of a mashup from the Cavs considering all the different identities/color schemes they've had over the years.

Lakers should've added some yellow in their like their G League team does

Chicago's is meh

The rest are fire.

The three throwbacks are ok. Obviously the designs were a little more basic 75 years ago. Don't like the Celtics one tho there's just something off about it to me

Miami and Cleveland’s look bad. I like the Hawks design but don’t love that yellow. The rest look pretty good overall.

It will interesting to see what Sacramento does with their "City" set. They may do a fauxback of the Rochester or Cincinnati Royals but in Purple & Black. No telling what OKC will do.

Also here are the "Classic" uniform matchups for this season. It will be interesting if Toronto pulls an old Blue Huskies uniform combined with the original Raptors pinstripes.

Spoiler:

It looks like a letter scrapbook on a jersey. They look awful and I usually love the Miami jerseys, even the blue and pink.

I'm good off Nike gear for now. I'll let them have their women's market that they hold to a higher regard.

Miami's looks like they kidnapped one of my loved ones and want to send me a message

I like the Atlanta jersey. That has always been their best logo.

I would say this is Nike's fault, to a large degree. Forcing teams to create new alternates every year so jersey sales can be pumped up will result in the bottom of the barrel being scraped creatively in short order. I wish they'd just get rid of the whole city program, outside of a few like the original Heat Vice, and Utah and Phoenix sunset ones, very few have been worthwhile or even good.

I wish the NBA would restrict each team to a total of TWO jersey's for the entire season, one home and one away, no more variations.
The jersey would be so much more prestigious if it were the only jersey.

I like the Cs, Suns, and Bulls from what OP posted.

Weird there's no Celtics/Lakers game...

The Mavs jerseys instantly made me think of Josh Howard lol

76ers city edition leak to be Midnight Blue using the 1971-76 woodwork and honoring the Bicentennial.

I love the "fauxbacks" minus the Dallas one. That jersey just reminds me of an era where I really disliked the Mavericks. but I LOVE the Nets' fauxback, those are so clean.

Miami has had very unique fire over the past few years, but this new scrapbook font bs isn't very aesthetically pleasing lol. It probably has some meaning down there, but I'll ignorantly say they're pretty bad lol.

To be fair, depending on what age range you are in, the NBA (as well as the NFL) only had a Home and Away. Home team always wore White (except the Lakers who wore Yellow) and the Away uniform was always a dark color. It wasn't until the mid 1990's that a few clubs debuted "Alternate" uniforms and by the mid 2000's nearly every club had one. Now it's almost a prerequisite for clubs in all Sports to have "Alternate" uniforms. In baseball the Yankees/Dodgers/Tigers are the few exceptions.

not enough throwbacks. should've done like the nfl's 75th where every team wore at least one.

Im gonna buck the trend on the Heat jersey: I love this one. The past three vice have looked great but had no wearability for me. The yellow one just looked plain wrong. This looks interesting and is very wearable.
