    WTF. I don't get it. What does single color or BIG color have to do with Christmas?

    Not so cleverly disguised attempt to sell more jerseys. Those are boring and hideous and so are the Lakers' ones in the link.

    Almost as bad as the Mavericks' "Trash Bag" jerseys they wore a few seasons ago.

    Not as bad as the Raptors' camouflage jerseys that they wore a couple games ago. Still ugly though. Since when was gray a Christmas color? Unless our guys are supposed to look like a bunch of coals. And filling in the letter would be better.

    It looks to me like they picked the most drab, neutral color they could find, slightly darkened it on the stripes, then they removed the team logo/player name/jersey number and accidentally left some threads/stitching behind.

    Looks better than our current jerseys. We should wear these until an overhaul is done.

    This. It's the outline in the lettering that really makes it look like garbage. It's not even legible. Creates eyestrain when you try to read it.

    Why didn't they just outline all parts of the letters like the Lakers' jersey or the Heats' jersey? And why gray??? Gray isn't even our dominant color.

    Are we so boring that whoever designed our Christmas Day jersey just said, "F**k it!"

    we may be victim of who we're playing. I'm guessing Bulls "big color" will be red. So Rockets get gray.

    Wait until you see it on the court under the lights at United Center in front of your xmas day new 65" flatscreen before we all decide these uniforms are awful.

    I think James Harden carving up the Bulls D in these duds will look pretty sweet.

    Ummm... I'd have to see it on the players and on the court and stuff, but all I can help think is "Why not black or some kind of navy blue?" etc.
