    That actually looks awful. They should have made the neck collar to be like the Lakers, Magic style.

    Has anyone photo shopped this jersey with no grey on the neckline or completely around the shoulder, so it looks more like the shorts?

    crappy edit, but imagine the jersey stripes coming in at a better angle.

    I think they should make the stripes thinner and move them closer the arm hole area. Like the Spurs or Cavs jersey.

    I think that works on the jersey, but as a whole uniform, it wouldn't match the shorts. Cleveland has the same lines on the shorts:

    On our jerseys, we could keep the same line style as the shorts, but just shorten the line to keep the upper half less crowded.

    I would change the shorts too. But that would make it a uniform change and I don't think that's gonna happen soon. Maybe when Nike takes over....?

    I think the shorts should be shorter. They're so long that they're turning into slacks.

    Shorts now are shorter than they were about 10 years ago.

    They now sit above the knee:

    Here's what shorts looked like 10 years ago:

    I can't believe they gave away Kevin Durant's number!

    So glad they got rid of that metallic material a few years ago. It made the uniforms look unnecessarily heavy in addition to the wide shoulders and baggy shorts

    Yea the new cut looks a lot more awkward than I thought it would.

    We all know the unis need a redesign. This design was made for a different cut, now it just looks weird.

    They could have made the new cut look way better if the brought the two stripes around the sleeves into one line as they get to the top of the shoulder. Anyone able to photos hop that to see how it would look?

    The last problem is those jersey's look too flat and one dimensional with the two color scheme. They really need a thin yellow line in there somewhere to give it more character and drop the two stripes look.

    I think the grey fabric on the neck is knocking everything off. If they took that little bit off, I think it would look fine
