Title: New black alternate jerseys!
Post by: DrJasper on September 13, 2017, 08:23:51 PM
2k seems to have accidentaly leaked several alternate uniforms called "Statement Jerseys". What do you think of them? I think they're pretty nice!  ;D

They're nice.  And the #4 is still an emotional trigger...

A heck of a lot better than those heinous gray t-shirts they were wearing last year.

Hate 'em.

If you're going to go alternate, go with the gold lettering/numbering like the St. Paddy's Day uniforms.  Just got rid of the black all together.  The black & green ones, these black ones.  Doesn't matter.  Just get rid of them!

Still have a chance for some gold. Nike's doing 4 jerseys, this is the 3rd one.

Eh, I was never a fan of the gold and green together.

I like these black ones.

Only a matter of time before the alternates are a giant GE logo in the middle and a shamrock patch on the shoulder strap.

Maybe just rename the team the GEltics?

Eck no way I'd pay good money for an authentic jersey with one of those corporate logos on it.

Black jerseys have been the in thing for several years now.  We're on the tail end of it.

Me, stick to the traditional and limit all these alternate jerseys.

If memory serves, the retail versions won’t have the GE logo. Someone correct me please if that’s incorrect.

I’d like to see what the fourth jersey is and if there is going to be a st patty’s version before making my jersey purchase for the year and for the rest of the family.  I kinda like this one.

I like these. I only have the classic green and white jerseys and i'm in the market for another jersey.

I could see a black Hayward jersey in my future.

Those really were hideous - and I think the sleeved jerseys are ugly in general. 

The Black ok.  Don't love it, don't hate it.

Yuck. I don't like black alternate color jerseys when black isn't even one of the Celtics colors.

The only alternate jerseys I've ever seen the Celtics wear that I liked were the St Patty's Day green/gold jerseys.

I guess I could live with these as long as they are replacing those disgusting grey, sleeved jerseys. Those are the worst.

When do all 4 get released for sale? I just bought a Larry Bird Mitchell & Ness all star game jersey from 1981-82 but need a lower cost jersey of Kyrie's. Maybe a Hayward jersey too.

Black and green isn't a good combination.

Nothing great, but a massive upgrade over the previous green and black jersey and certainly the gray t-shirts.

Just get a single jersey with Velcro.  That way you can not only alternate between Hayward and Irving, but also be ahead of the crowd when Ainge trades for some other dude down the line :laugh:.

Green-gold should be used just for St.Patricks' week, as it has been so far. Black one is fine but I would not use it in too manny games.

They're ok. Am I alone in liking the alternate green jerseys with the black trim?

Not a fan. The black does nothing for the Celtics.

But I'd rather see these than those god awful greys.

These are ugly. Just like the grey t shirt ones from the other year.

TP - in addition to being downright ugly - anything black shows up horribly on the TV screen.  The green jerseys with the black numbers - numbers are impossible see/read.

I guess alternate jerseys is an attempt to sell more merchandise & teams are required to go along, but if it were my decision the Celts just need two style jerseys - traditional white home & traditional green away.

I hope you're right.  I mean, who wants a genetically engineered jersey? ;) :laugh:

Surprisingly, I don't like them.

I think the Nike check should be green, the white in GE black, the green around neck/arms thinner, and no white outline around the player number (but kept on CELTICS).

That would make for a much nicer jersey, imo.

If it means that the Celtics are willing to spend more money than any other team, I'm in.

I see Towns there. Mike Conley. Brad Beal. And the Celtics sent Shane Larkin? Weird.

I think the jerseys look fine, btw.

why is it weird we sent Larkin? The team had their first practice together yesterday. Clearly practice on a team that was completely blown up is more important than a Nike photoshoot. Larkin is like the 13th man on this team, he can clearly skip practice

That's a good reason. Is it just coincidence that Boston had its first practice on that day? It doesn't seem like many other teams did.

Or is this all just because Larkin has the best body on the team?
