Only teams that are promoting their new jersey's do this.

The only games I've seen (last night Orl-NY, Cle-Sac) the home team wore the white jersey.

I did notice that Houston was wearing red at home tonight

ewwwww, I just saw Phoenix in orange uniforms!!!

I've seen at least 3 teams with bad new uni's - Dallas, Denver (baby blue is not meant for sports, its meant for girls shirts!) & Phoenix

Dallas changed them...and they are NASTY!

I don't mind the Nuggets unis.

I think the Suns unis are NASTY also...they look like the Orangemen.

To anyone who thinks Powder Blue, or Baby Blue are for girls, I point to in my mind, 2 of the best uniforms ever- the San Diego Charger uni's, and of course, the classic UNC.

Dallas dumped their new unis for the old unis due to un=popular sentiment.

(baby blue is not meant for sports, its meant for girls shirts!)

This sounds like something a 9 yr old would say. J, are you not comfortable with your manhood?

I really liked the Denver uni's. Of course, I wish they would go back to their old school uni's. Those were bad.

Mike D - I thought the "PHX" looked dope! Being a Philly fan, I can't believe you didn't make the connection to the old "Phila" jerseys back in the day. Old school, man.......old school is IN!

Now the orange is a different story.....but LOVED the PHX.

Denver's uni's are fine. Dallas' grey was awful. I like the Rockets' new look.

Steve Kerr read my mind last night: "The Rockets jerseys look like the Chinese National team. They are trying to sell some to the few billion back in China for sure."

The orange jerseys were for the "Home Depot Home Opener". Nope, I'm not kidding.

We will see this year J! Carolina shoulda have a top team. And I have been saying it for the last 3 years...if all our guys stay after this year we will the National Championship my SR year in HS!!!

Go HeeLs!

But on topic...I like the Nuggets new jerseys; Rockets new logo sucks; and Mavs had the worst jerseys ever, even if only for a night...
