    Detroit can use all the civic pride they can muster. I think it's the right move for the Pistons to support Detroit in this way. Meanwhile, the Rockets won't even put the city name on uniforms.

    Its so plain and ugly. They look exactly like the Grizzlies, Hawks, Pacers (blue), Mavs, Jazz (older uni) and now the New Orleans Pelicans jerseys!

    Come on, be a little different. Something that stands out as you're on. I didnt really like the 90's era flashy cartoony uniform designs but I would much rather have that than these plain, boring, and dull unis. :mad:

    No thank you. There must be a fortune in uniform sales cuz the NBA is launching a load of new gimmick jerseys.

    Design is weak.

    I wouldn't mind some clutch city unis at all. Bring back the 94-95 unis with "clutch city" on them...

    geez does everyone have to have a moniker for their city on their jersey now? Are the Rockets going to get "Space City" jerseys? Are the Celtics going to get a Beantown jersey???

    Thinking about it.... Would anyone want to see an "H-Town" jersey???

    Too plain. Bring back the turquoise orange and black horsey unis. Now that's a nice looking jersey.

    Meh, but I'm certainly eager to see how Jennings, Stuckey, Smoove, Monroe, and Drummond mesh. Very interesting unit, to say the least.

    If these Motor City jerseys sell like hotcakes, look for the limited release "H-TOWN" jerseys next.

    If Jennings and Smoove can swallow their pride and realize they have two of the game's most promising young bigs at their disposal, they have the potential to not just make the Playoffs, but maybe, just maybe, do some damage.

    I like their core, and Billups' presence will help, but they need a few more shooters. Also, Caldwell-Pope is another rook to keep an eye on.

    Should be fun.
