New Kings, Wolves, and Magic Uniforms: Leaked

Tom Ziller of the “controversial” FanHouse did the dirty work by digging through the Getty Images archives for photographic evidence of the new threads.

    first and SHAWN KEMP TO PLAY IN ITALY, where is it SLAM!!!

  • rav Posted: Jul.31 at 9:39 am
    the magic should go back to the 94-95 era uni’s – one of the best ever and brings back memories of disneyland for me :D

  • rav Posted: Jul.31 at 9:40 am
    kings one looks good, can hardly see anything for the magic one

  • Eboy Posted: Jul.31 at 9:46 am
    The T-Wolves uni is horrid.

  • Jukai Posted: Jul.31 at 9:53 am
    Why is it horrid? It’s way better than the uniform they’re wearing now.

  • ber Posted: Jul.31 at 9:55 am
    the neckline of orlando’s isn’t cute.

  • Squirrel7 Posted: Jul.31 at 9:55 am
    I’d be interested in seeing the rest of the Magic one, could be good. I assumed they’re probably adding black pinstripes to their white jersey then. On the subject of uniforms, I wonder if the Celtics or Lakers (or even the Knicks) will ever drastically change their kits….

  • Michael Posted: Jul.31 at 9:56 am
    agreed, minnesota one is awful

  • Eboy Posted: Jul.31 at 9:59 am
    Jukai, besides being dense, you must be farsighted as well. :)

  • Bigi Posted: Jul.31 at 10:00 am
    TERRIBLE!!!

  • Ryan Jones Posted: Jul.31 at 10:02 am
    It’s so perfect that Jukai likes the Minny uniform. So consistent with his judgment in almost all other matters on this site.
    I was at the rookie shoot when they broke these out. Verdict:
    The Magic joints aren’t horrible, but they’re hardly an improvement.
    The Kings ones sort of aren’t bad.
    The Minnesota ones are f*cking terrible, a fact with which the player modeling them in the photos linked wholeheartedly agrees.

  • Squirrel7 Posted: Jul.31 at 10:04 am
    I don’t understand the hate for the T’Wolves one. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t particularly like it, but it’s really not radically different from the old one. Unless everyone hated that too. Looks like the Hawks kit a little, in my opinion (but obviously in T’Wolves colours/theme).

  • Captain America Posted: Jul.31 at 10:05 am
    T-Wolves’ is dope.

  • Squirrel7 Posted: Jul.31 at 10:06 am
    Wait, I take that back, just too another look at that neckline, it IS terrible!

  • Squirrel7 Posted: Jul.31 at 10:08 am
    *took

  • Captain America Posted: Jul.31 at 10:33 am
    Hey Squirrel, have a nut

  • Squirrel7 Posted: Jul.31 at 10:38 am
    Haha, believe it or not, I’m not actually a Squirrel. In the same way I’m sure you’re not actually Captain America!

  • Jukai Posted: Jul.31 at 10:42 am
    Eboy doesn’t like the uniform cause a white guy’s in it. Ryan doesn’t like it simply because I exist.

  • French Toast Posted: Jul.31 at 10:45 am
    the magic’s uni look gay and Kevin Love look fat…

  • TADOne Posted: Jul.31 at 10:51 am
    I’m sure Myles is p*ssed that he has to look at those uni’s all season.

  • TADOne Posted: Jul.31 at 10:52 am
    I thought the Kings new uni’s would have “Las Vegas” on the front?

  • d.Y. Posted: Jul.31 at 11:02 am
    The Kings one isn’t that different, I’m not feeling the plunging neckline on the Magic unis (didn’t need to see that rook’s chest hair this morning), and the Wolves uni looks unfinished. Is Love wearing an old Wolves jersey underneath the new one?

  • Sean B Posted: Jul.31 at 11:11 am
    the wolves new uni is perfectly terrible

  • rapsfan43 Posted: Jul.31 at 11:34 am
    the new OKC jerseys should say Seattle on the front…

  • Aaron S Posted: Jul.31 at 11:42 am
    The T-wolves new uniforms are absolutely gross.

  • Clay Posted: Jul.31 at 11:50 am
    They all suck

  • Myles Brown Posted: Jul.31 at 11:57 am
    Is he wearing two jerseys? Why does the, um, collar look like that? Ew.

  • ciolkstar Posted: Jul.31 at 12:26 pm
    Yeah, the collar on the Twolves jerz is retarded looking, and the Font is too small. Someone design/marketing firm got payed a lot of $ to drop this steaming load.

  • ciolkstar Posted: Jul.31 at 12:27 pm
    I couldn’t see the new Kings one on the link and only caught the dipping neckline and Courtney lee’s chest hair for the magic.

  • bigdoggchad Posted: Jul.31 at 12:39 pm
    Is Kevin Love wearing a Lynx jersey? Terrible!

  • BETCATS Posted: Jul.31 at 12:42 pm
    throws up in mouth

  • RV Posted: Jul.31 at 12:47 pm
    why don’t they just join the WNBA and NBA teams, might as well save money on the unis since they’ll be wearing the same thing.

  • DP Posted: Jul.31 at 12:58 pm
    Freakin Orlando is wearing V-necks now?

  • Boing Dynasty Posted: Jul.31 at 2:26 pm
    3/4′s of the league is wearing v-necks now.

  • JE Posted: Jul.31 at 2:46 pm
    The Minnesota ones look like WNBA jerseys. Maybe the Gay Love era wasn’t over before it started..

  • Nick Posted: Jul.31 at 2:55 pm
    seriously I had that t wolves jersey in little dribblers, could the numbers be any smaller.

  • whitechocolate Posted: Jul.31 at 2:57 pm
    They all suck

  • RV Posted: Jul.31 at 3:03 pm
    i seriously dont know who the NBA consults when it comes to uniforms. They’re getting worse and worse and i cant imagine the people who actually will buy them would pick these new styles over the old ones. I can’t imagine the players who actually WEAR them would pick this over the old ones…

  • Justin Posted: Jul.31 at 3:07 pm
    The rumor was that the Magic would be wearing black on the road and white pinstripes at home.
    So, I think we still need to wait and see.
    BTW to “Rav”, DisneyLAND is in Anaheim, CA along with the Holla Back Girl.

  • Darksaber Posted: Jul.31 at 3:27 pm
    ah, i’ve been asking myself since last season began when adidas was gonna start messing up the NBA threads. Surprisingly the did a great job with warmups and shooting shirts (who knew?)Took a while, but we finaly got there.

  • TADOne Posted: Jul.31 at 3:54 pm
    Did Sean John design these too?

  • Nick Fleming Posted: Jul.31 at 4:02 pm
    at least they arent as bad as the silver MC Hammer jerseys the Mavs wore…Once

  • Mike Posted: Jul.31 at 4:04 pm
    wheres the kings one?

  • RV Posted: Jul.31 at 6:50 pm
    Darksaber, thats a good point, its all adidas’ fault, i forgot they took over recently, even their apparel started to suck, yet the USA uniforms are sweet, bring back nike…

  • Joey Posted: Jul.31 at 10:27 pm
    hey were are the links at everybody?

  • Darksaber Posted: Aug.1 at 5:17 am
    Bring…back…Nike. RV, i concur, too bad the three stripes have a multiyear Contract with the dark side, umm i mean the empero…, umm Stern.

  • amir Posted: Aug.2 at 11:17 am
    i dont c any pixs of the new jerseys on the pg. Help me out here.

  • [...] We’re not going to lie. The initial images of the Timberwolves new uniforms didn’t look fresh at all, but today’s official release might change some perceptions. [...]
