    The black jersey must look better in person than what I'm seeing. I'll have to wait to see it in action before I judge. I'm not feeling it right now.

    So many jerseys. Was any player wearing our current uni's with the narrow shoulder cut? Is that a thing? A photo from Harden's Twitter had him wearing the same ol', and this was for a photo shoot.

    That black uniform. automatically became their best.

    Why can't the rest be like that?

    No candy canes down the side.
    Good sleeve cut.
    Different/Normal font. Not that - what some would say - "Chinese takeout" font.

    Wow the black ones are sick. Gray ones are good and red ones are okay.

    But the black ones are by far the best.

    I love the concept of the black jersey but I'm not a fan of this black jersey. My biggest hate on it is the red bordering, especially on the shorts.

    It would be cool if the lettering was red on the black jerseys but I guess visibility is the reason why it is white.

    The grey ones look like a practice jersey and the grey really looks like SAS colors, to me. But they are alright, I guess.

    Black unis look great...the others not so much.

    The pride jerseys looked like someone got the alternates from last year and added "Clutch City" in microsoft paint....

    The black jersey color scheme reminds me of college team jerseys. I like the white one out of the three, despite it reminding me of default practice jerseys from nba 2k.

    Black looks good, IMO, not great though..I think the large logo on the shorts looks odd. The others look kind of goofy.

    I'm sorry to be "that guy", but I hate all three. What the hell is up with the checkers on the side?
