They want people in Europe to buy the jersey :wtf:

What is more likely to sell, the current NBA jersey or one that closely resembles Soccer kits :wtf:

Damn breh, stop being so defensive :whoa:

Wearing jerseys as a fashion statement is more of an American thing though. People aren't really rocking football (soccer) jerseys unless they're playing in them or going to watch a game. The NBA having sleeved jerseys isn't really going to improve their marketability over here.

That's not going to stop them from trying to improve marketability worldwide, the current jerseys aren't really selling much anywhere.

Would something like this really be the end of the world?

People are just scared of things they aren't used to.

Being a soccer fan, you don't even think about the logo - it has no bearing on the 'authenticity' of a moment.

Basketball players might as well wear blank headbands and blank sneakers and blank everything (hiding the logo), might as well remove the ads from the basketball court, if that's how people really feel.

Bottom line - people will get used to it, they're just comfortable w/o it for the time being

As long as the players are getting money from this and it doesn't end up like the soccer jerseys with companies on it instead of logos, I have no problems with this :yeshrug:

That's BS.
