    Brooklyn Nets uniforms

    What's the thought on these? Some people think they're awesome, me? They look like whoever designed them got lazy and didn't really feel like finishing them, so they just made them as plain as they could. It seriously looks like zero effort was put in. And the court? Yuck.

    Kinda looks like San Antonio uniforms except they say Brooklyn instead of Spurs. Simple, plain, generic.

    I liked the concept jerseys with the white top and black bottom. These are designed to be timeless, so I guess that worked. It just has no personality.

    Definitely vanilla, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.

    The Raptors, Grizzlies and Bobcats all had horrible uniforms when they entered the league, too gimmicky.

    Keeping it simple sets a subtle psychological undertone.. substance over 'style'. Colours are simple, there's a stark contrast with the gaudy Knicks ensemble- I think they've done a decent job.

    This is what happens when you create uniforms on NBA 2K and make them IRL.

    I'm a minimalist at heart... but cmon guys that's TOO plain for an NBA team. They look like an intramural squad.

    I kinda think the Raptors and to a lesser degree the Grizzles uniforms were suitable for that time, the 90s. It was just that time to be sorta wacky and experimental.

    Regarding these uniforms, I like the idea, very blue collar. They almost look like a downtown high school team. As for the stadium, I like the logo on the court, just not the court itself (the wood finish, too dull).

    I agree with Mr Mojo, I don't mind it, but I'd be dissapointed if they were my teams.

    I think they could get away with uniforms this plain if they had colors other than black and white. A minimal blue/red uniform would be okay. I'm certainly not excited about these. Maybe they resinate with their home fans. I sure hope so.

    I think plain was what they were going for. Plain is the new fancy.

    take it or leave it, but this has been their simple plan from the outset...and they have done a very good job with it so far....

    I love the IDEA, but the execution is very poor. That font they used goes beyond simplistic and heads into Times New Roman territory.

    Yeah this is what the Thunder jerseys looked like their 1st year in the game.

    I agree I like the fake jersey waaaay better than these. What was the build up for these dull *** unis?

    Exactly my thought. The uniform concept is cool, but they lost it all with that weak font. They'd do better to switch that patch on the shorts to the chest and put Brooklyn in smaller font on the shorts.

    Someone on the NBA subreddit posted this a couple of days ago, apparently it was a concept, and it's kinda strange, but I'd almost prefer this to the real ones:

    Brooklyn Nets uniforms

    Those have a euro type feel to them. I like them more
