In case you’re wondering how something remotely like this blazer (Oh, who am I kidding? There’s nothing like this blazer. There’s just this blazer) comes to exist, it’s actually made out of the same material the Hornets voodoo doll giveaways were made from. I have been informed that, sadly, we cannot look forward to seeing these in the team store, as they are not going to be mass-produced. This is a one of a kind thing.But, you’re thinking, who would wear this blazer anyway? Oh, I can think of a couple people…
Emeka Okafor. So hot right now.
1) Craig Sager. We have, what, two TNT games this year? Someone make it happen.
2) George Shinn. It’s his team!
3) Gil McGregor. Anyone remember the conversation he and Bob Licht had on air about how they wanted to buy matching teal seersucker suits for the playoffs? Yeah.
4) Hilton Armstrong. He’s a silly person. This is a silly blazer.
5) Me. You know it!
** For those of you who came here via Ball Don’t Lie, it is important to note that he didn’t show up in New Orleans wearing this jacket. It lives in the Hornets team offices somewhere, apparently, and Okafor threw it on during his photo shoot. That’s why it doesn’t fit. People. Srsly.
Well dressed
It’s the kind of thing you want, but don’t want mass produced. You roll into some not too formal social event in NOLA and your the only one wearing that, YOU. ARE. THE. SHIT! If you walk into such an event and your one of five people wearing it, well, that would be unfortunate.
i want to be buried in that blazer, or married whichever comes first
Now THAT is one sharp blazer!
I would sport it- don’t have to worry about getting hit buy ongoing traffic.. that garb is louder than a referee with a whistle…
