Team USA Basketball Olympic 2012 NIKE Jersey's

[mr j 858]

Not sure if this has been posted and I also found this in another thread in the NT PI regional forums.
Anyways I think they look pretty damn dope and will probably cop an official white Kobe team USA jersey whenever they release this summer. My white 2008 Kobe team USA jersey is kind beat up just from rockin it around town and balling in it a couples times over the years.

I'm going on a limb... I think Kobe's going to rest this summer and not hoop in the Olympics.


Jerseys are fire.

Durant needs to schedule a meeting with Cheeseburger Eddie.

I doubt that. Maybe the last time he ever will be a starter for the Olympics and I don't think his pride and ego would let him sit out.

But those Kobe's on his feet

 

[dmbrhs]

Yep, Kobe wants that second gold medal.

 

[Bert.]

they look good

Kobe rest this summer and not playing for team USA

Some of you all really don't know Mamba's thought process & pride.

Heck going into the 2008 Summer Olympics in China he was in worse physical condition and was coming off a long run to the Finals that year.

Also dude is tight and loves Coach K.

So what exactly happens with players like Dwight Howard and Derrick Rose who are sponsored by Adidas? Are they legally obligated or allowed to wear a competitor's label in public?

Kobe already said he was going to the Olympics

[PatRiley]

those 4 alone along with Glen Davis could probably win a gold medal by themselves

 

[japanair21]

Am I the only one that doesn't really like em? I liked the simplicity of the 2008 jerseys. These? The numbers are kind of cool, but I hate the edges on the letters. It's like someone made them by using a stencil borrowed for a 2nd grader.

I am not a fan. Color scheme, numbers, cool. Lettering? Barf.

 

[crowelliowa34]

They should of brought back the pinstripe ones they had in the 90s

 

[gunna get it]

that Shape on the USA doesnt look good at all

I liked these better, the last Fiba Joint

and the 04 olympic debacle joints

 

[rolaholic]

Loved the '08 Joints. These new ones look weird with the sharp lettering.

 

[Nawzlew]

Loved these. Got a Magic one.

Will be copping one of these though.

 

[jd214]

Don't like the lettering.

The "S" looks like the Suzuki logo.

 

[bighead2205]

I'm sorry but the text/font is hideous. It looks like the block lettering I used to use in middle school when I wanted to make my writing look "cool".

QFT!! I always thought I was in the minority. Loved these two jerseys

 

[ballinboykz]

Although I may be Canadian... I thought the 2008 joints were dope as hell. Id take those any day.

...the same thing that happens to all the nike and reebok athletes who wear their nba jerseys and warm up gear day in and day out. aka not #%%@. 
and these jerseys are awful. nike's trying to be way too groundbreaking and futuristic. those letters are gross, especially the A. simplicity rules. 

 

[mister916]

Meh. Not really a fan. Maybe if they shrink the wordmark a bit.
