If the inaugural uniform from the Raptor’s initial 95′ season isn’t the best jersey not being worn in the NBA, I don’t think you’ll find one.
It’s an all-time classic look we shit on for years (especially the lean years) and we’ve fallen in love with them again after becoming champions. Almost as if to say that embarrassing expansion season is part of being a champion and I can rally behind that change in thinking.
These are sharp though. Really sharp and bold when everyone other than ATL is busy being cool. It’s almost soo ugly it’s cute like your neighbors new baby or a smart car.
Notice, no Lowry? They must have his locker away from the riff-raff like Hollis Jefferson and Johnson so as not to catch the yips.
The court gets a makeover too complete with the Raptor Tracks across the court.
When your franchise increases in value by 30% year over year (1.7 billion, 11th in NBA) makes 275 million in reported income, You can splash out on a new floor and uniforms for shits and giggles.
1-1 on the season and I have no idea what this team is all about. Is it Siakam’s team or Lowry’s. Do they shoot three’s better than any team in the east or do they have a horse they can ride like Kawhi when it matters?
No idea. But I’m finna enjoy these uni’s tonight in memory of Zan Tabak and the fourth-best member of the fab 5, Jimmy King.
Oh, Jimmy.
