    Pretty much.

    Kind of like the 9 billion different jerseys that teams wore for the past 3-4 years.

    It made watching the regular season pretty painful... nothing but ugly throw-backs and concept jerseys all over.

    If Stern is going to open it, it could be the head of Hank the Angry Dwarf. ;)

    It could be a ball.

    But dont forget about that logo with D Wade

    Could it have something to do with that?

    Hmm, actually now that someone brought up the All-Star game.

    He dropped 36 and made some nice 3's and dunks.
    Maybe T-Mac will shoot better next year :D

    Keep your hopes up people!

    All right ,an Israelly reporter ,from Maccabi Tel Aviv main fan-site, got into a room he should not be in the open day today.
    He found the NBA photographers and some players picturing with the new ball and secceded to get a snapshot before they throwed him out.

    Here is the picture from the fan-site forum.
    as for the rumors, it seems to be a better designed ball for easier handeling .
