Probably just the regular ones with a Jordan logo on it.

I hope they get rid of the side stripes, I don't love the colors on those.

I came into this thread thinking somebody was speaking on the state of New Jersey which is where I reside.

Pretty sure we're about to see the best uniforms in the league. Jordan brand has got to be the best sponsor to have on your uniform.

Jordan isn't our sponsor, it's our uniform provider as opposed to Nike.

Should be any minute now. I dig the marketing they did for this on social media, it's giving me Stranger Things vibes.

I feel like they have to be planning a retro pinstripe alternate, I'm definitely disappointed they didn't show it. Cool video though and the fact that the Jumpman logo is the only logo on the jersey is a massive plus over every other team in the league.

This is kind of what I expected. They just resigned the uniforms so they aren't going to scrap it, but I bet we'll see some interesting alts. I wonder if the black buzz city jersey is gone

I already expected that it's going to look exactly the same except for the logo. But I was interested to find out who's going to be our sponsor/corporate partner.

would it have killed MJ to be involved in this jumpman reveal? His team, his image, his brand, and yet he's nowhere to be found.

I figured to at least see an alternate with all the hype surrounding it.

Jumpman is the sponsor, that's it. No Nike swoosh or another other corporate logo.

I mean they look great but why the hype for nothing.

Guelli was on the radio and said there will be five total jerseys and they'll probably do another release by the end of the summer.

From a marketing perspective that's probably the better approach. Ramp it up as we get closer to the season.

Guelli just confirmed on periscope that there will be another release later in the summer. Also said that they've been approached by sponsors but they really wanna promote the Jordan thing for now, and "it has to fit with Jordan Brand."
