Ranking all the 75th anniversary NBA city edition uniforms
Ranking the NBA city edition uniforms
Interesting but not quite there…
There were eight uniforms that weren’t awful but didn’t quite hit home runs either. I didn’t hate any of these but all have a fatal flaw.
Miami Heat: Miami has had some of the best city editions over the years, but this is not one of them. The font reminds me of an 80’s TV show like “Saved by the Bell” or when a serial killer cuts letters out of magazine to make a ransom note.
Toronto Raptors: These are ok, but I really don’t like the black, nor the stripes. The Raptors have that nice purple color sitting there and they should have used it on these, as the cartoon really doesn’t suit the black.

Orlando Magic: Again, this might just be me but I am not a fan of pinstripes, though I think these are the best of the striped jerseys. I do like the orange on the side.
Cleveland Cavaliers: I like these actually. Good color scheme, but not quite sure about the logo which seems too small or something.
Minnesota Timberwolves: They were so close to having something nice here, as I love the color and the font is good but whatever that is on the sides is awful and wrecks these overall.
Los Angeles Lakers: I was very close to putting these in the first group, but I do kind of like the color and the stars on the front. Otherwise it’s just the Lakers and I hate the Lakers. These will sour on me once I have to see LeBron and AD whining whilst wearing them.
Oklahoma City Thunder: At first I thought these might be the worst ones and I had some NSFW white jokes queued up that I had to put in the holster. But they’ve kind of grown on me. I am interested to see what these look like in action, as I feel like they could be very cool or look like a milkman fit from the 1950’s. I can’t make up my mind on these.
Milwaukee Bucks: These are nothing special to be honest, but they are a huge step up from the Cream City catastrophes, which really were awful. I like the purple on the sides though I kind of wish they’d gone with the purple and green as the main colors.
