Have faith, and gamers shall provide…
This screenshot (it’s from NBA 2K9– someone over on Hornets Report had their eyes open) seems to spoil the Hornets’ new uniforms, which are supposed to be unveiled next Wednesday afternoon. So we’ve got the fleur de bee on the sides of the shorts and on the back of the neck, as well as a bluer teal (I fully support this), and a bluer purple (matching the bluish purple that’s been showing up the second half of last season in all the official FDB stuff). I thought I’d hate the pinstripes, but this looks kinda cool. They alternate teal and purple. Can’t see much of the font from this shot, so I guess we’ll have to wait for the official jerseys. Also I’m not sure what exactly is going on with the side striping.It’s team… then blue in the middle and it widens… into a shape we can’t see because the jersey is being folded? Hmm…
I’m going to assume this is pretty close to what we’re going to see. I think I like: they’re nicely retro, and they’ve got the FDB, and vertical striping will just make Chris Paul look faster. I shall bestow my stamp of approval and go back to stirring my gumbo…
Bonus points to who can tell me what 2K got wrong about CP3 in this shot.
I like the new unis. I was skeptical of the pinstripes when the concept was leaked, but I like how they did it, going wide. Nice catch, TT6! On top of the world wide web as usual.
cp3 usually wears one white and one yellow rubberband
And we have a winner!
AND, there are no laser beams shooting out of his eyes.
Love more of the FDB.
Oh, also, bye bye Jannero. Shame - you had so much to live for. Gonna feel like a silly move when the Bees get their hardware this year.
I dig the new NOLA logo
