That purple is ugly anyway. (I know how dare I speak ill of purple?!)

I agree. They should just have one “special edition” annually and keep the rest the same. Loses its sentimental value when it’s just another seasonal clothing item

I got the DBook tribute to native tribes jersey too! Amazing quality and such an awesome jersey.Kryptonic wrote: ↑Thu Feb 16, 2023 7:39 amspecialsauce wrote: ↑Wed Feb 15, 2023 4:35 pmI agree.

Exactly... I get the business side of things but they could make subtle changes instead of a full blown make-over. Not to mention, there's still reasons to buy a new one when players change as often as they do on teams. Also, maybe I'm old fashioned but I like when teams have kept their traditional looks... ie: the celtics and lakers have kept up with a traditional jersey and wish we did too.
I like the "City Edition" jersey changes and funny enough I think those are the better looking jersey's. The new black jersey looks too simple and don't dig it as much as I did "The Valley" jersey. The new jersey tribute to the native tribes has actually grown on me (picked up a Booker T-shirt version as an xmas gift) even though it's nothing close to our colors... I feel like we're the 90's pistons when I see those![]()
I don't know. I think part of offense is reading the defense and making the right play. I have seen tons of times where Durant just held the ball and chucked up a bad shot, where if he were thinking more carefully he would have set up a teammate. Not trying to bag on the guy, I'm just saying that maybe he's the best scorer (or one of the best) shooter/scorers ever, but if you factor in all of offensive play, I don't know if he gets there. I'd give it to somebody like Lebron who also understands passing and other nuances of the game better.

Yep.Split T wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 5:15 pmI think Durant has a case…I don’t think there’s anyone else that could literally fit anywhere. You could plug Durant on every team in history and he’d fit seamlessly and elevate the team. He’s the perfect player in that regards.
You tell me to make an all time team with any player from their peak and the only player I’m absolutely sure I’d have on it is KD.
