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:.

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!

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.

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 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.

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?

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.
