    This is going to eventually happen in every sport, much like the Rockets sitting at .500 and the 8th seed, enjoy the ad-free era while you can.

    Per EPSN:

    "The NBA announced Friday that the board of governors has approved a three-year pilot program to allow teams to sell a corporate logo on their jerseys.

    Teams can now start pitching companies on buying a 2.5-by-2.5-inch space as the NBA becomes the first of the four major U.S. sports leagues to put ads on regular game-day jerseys. NBA teams had been wearing advertising logos on practice jerseys."

    That does not sound like too expensive for these huge corporations.

    So...maybe teams are not required to put ads on jerseys if they don't want to?????

    I don't see why not, heck most of the time I don't know who's playing who with all of the atl jersey that teams play with.

    Teams are worst than Michael Jordan these days. Carrying 10 different jerseys into the season.
