Re: New Alternate Jerseys
I love the color scheme, but still hate our font for numbers and lettering..Heard it might say Motorcity on front. That would be sick!

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
I'll reserve judgement until I see the front, but I'm happy we are finally getting some alternates...would be cool to mix in retros a couple times during the season as well.
Why don't we use the red ones anymore? I liked those a lot.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
Eh, it's alright, but I would have rather seen the red ones from middle part of the last decade return. No idea why those were discontinued in the first place.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
I'm happy that we've finally gotten some alternates, I'd like to see us play in the retro jerseys as well.

they think it may mean Moose made the USA team or an alternate jersey. We'll find out tomorrow.

I agree on the font. I've been wanting us to go back to classic bad boys font for a long time.

I would think the #motorcity hashtag in the tweet confirms that theory.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
That would be so sick if it did. i don't think its Moose's announcement that he made team usa. Maybe they signed moose to a long term deal?

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
Does Team USA use Detroit font/numbering?
I definitely think they are alternate jerseys.
I think "Motor City" in cursive would be pretty sweet.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
Reminds me of the Team USA jerseys. Not bad, I certainly prefer them to those alts that were primarily red from about a decade ago.
I don't purchase jerseys, so I guess I don't have a huge opinion on it.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
That dark blue with red might make Josh Smith feel like he's back playing for Atlanta...

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
We definitely need some new modern, flatter fonts. I'm tired of that one.
I love the color scheme from the look of the back so far. I love the darker blue instead of the blinding blue that we have now.

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
I think you guys could be right on the Team USA idea. Just because the font is different from the real USA jersey doesn't necessarily rule out the possibility. The Pistons could be offering like a Pistons version of the USA jersey or something. Where its modeled after a real Pistons jersey, but says USA instead of Detoit and has the Olympic colors instead. I haven't heard anything about the roster being announced though, so its more likely just an alternate, but I'd be even happier if it was Moose making the olympic team

Re: New Alternate Jerseys
Yeah if Moose made TEAM USA thatd be amazing, but the font being similar to the pistons and the fact that most olympians never(when i say never i mean rarely) wear their nba number makes me suggest its an alternate.
Reminds me of The Nuggets when they had that powder blue as their main and dark blue as the alt.
if it has Detroit or Motor City in red cursive like that nuggets alt that would be sick.
