Mavericks introduce new alternate jerseys with Dallas skyline for the 2015-16 season

Here are the new Dallas Mavericks jerseys! These are final designs, and the all-blue one on the top right will be used as an alternate jersey for the 2015-16 season.

The Mavericks announced them at today's 12 p.m. press conference. The jerseys were selected as part of Mark Cuban's contest on his blog, where he invited fans to submit their own designs. More than 1,000 jerseys were submitted.

Here's what he had to say about the inspiration of his design:

Explanation of the "Skyline design"

I knew people would remark that it was a Denver/Seattle rip but honestly I believe those are some of the best jersey designs in history. I also believe that we have more right as a city to have the skyline on a jersey than those other guys.

Here's why: The Mavs and the ACC are the main reason that downtown/uptown areas have been revitalized in the last decade. The Dirty/Filthy/Nashty/Cuban era got people excited about going to downtown again. Suddenly it was cool to catch a Mavs game and hit the bars afterward. Heck, you might have even seen Dirk and Nash playing pool. What better way to honor the turnaround of the Mavericks and the downtown area by cementing that legacy and story in a jersey design. It also provides emotional and visual context to the experience of going to a MAVS game with one of the city's most recognizable features. It incorporates the branding of the current mavs (cost effective) and gives me a killer jersey to rock in my video game that reps my city.

I just wanted to explain why I went the way I did with the design.

MFFL baby!

I'm not a fan. Neither of this nor the retro Denver jersey they ripped it off of.

Hate Dallas, but those are cool jerseys (except for the Green one's).

I like them. Always a fan of anything that represents a city's skyline.

I think these jerseys are 100% unoriginal.

Of course a Rockets jersey with a downtown skyline would look nice, but any jersey with a downtown skyline would look nice. Even OKC, or Utah, or Sacramento, etc, etc

I wish we got new jerseys. Dallas goes through jerseys like Parsons goes through Summer's Eve.

Fan design, rip off of another city or not, not bad.

Better than anything Houston continues to put out but that may not be saying much.

Did the Mav's PR come up with MFFL? Is that their RedNation slogan? Although I think the whole Nation thing is an NBA marketing slogan for all the NBA teams.

Loool. The Fountain tower building (I think that's what they're trying to emulate) and the building to its left looks like balls and dick.
