| I wish they would go back to wearing the jerseys they wore when they played at the forum. They look much nicer than the current ones. |

| I actually really like the Sunday whites. I think they look really clean. Agreed about the black though. Black is too tryhard and we already have purple and gold (and hopefully still white). I do like the modern uniforms though. I think the classic Lakers jerseys look dated and that a lot of the love for them is nostalgic and just trying to fit in (old is always better than new just because that somehow proves you are a 'truer fan' than the new guys). |

Re: your last sentence. Nah, I just think they look better, and am very partial to u-neck jerseys. I love the Bulls and the Knicks current jerseys as well, and wish ours looked closer to those |

Fair enough, I guess I just find it hard to believe that I'm the only one who feels this way. I will say that my main issue with the classic jerseys are that I really don't like the heavy block numbering. |

| It's just a money grab, cloaked in sales jargon. Gotta sell those jerseys. |

Only thing worse than the black current uni's , are the throwback cursive uni's from the blue and white days that are in Purple and Gold. I know these aren't used in games but just their existence is wrong

Weird necklines on those. They look like last year's Kentucky jerseys |

I approve this message.
Cut the stupid v-nick and the stripes down the sides of the jersey.
Our 1970's were so much better. I'd love to see them take those and modernize ever so slightly. |

Celtics, Jazz, Cavs, Nets, Kings, T-Wolves, Magic, and Sixers will all have them |
Also the Raptors. I fully expect every team to have an advertisement patch. Most teams just haven't announced theirs yet.
Celtics - General Electric
Nets - Infor
Cavaliers - Goodyear
Timberwolves - FitBit
Magic - Walt Disney World Resort
76ers - StubHub
Kings - Blue Diamond Almonds
Raptors - Sun Life Financial
Jazz - 5 for the Fight (Qualtrics)

There's a list of Lakers sponsors. It isn't a stretch to believe that the Lakers' inevitable jersey sponsor is likely on that list. Alcohol companies as well as official NBA equipment and Nike competitors are ineligible.
I'm hoping for Gatorade, but I don't really care who it is as long as it doesn't turn the uniform into a steaming pile of garbage like the Nets patch does.  |

| Hollywood Nights are gone this season. Two new additions that are certain: a familiar Hardwood Classics set (hint: 99), and a brand new jersey that will blow everyone's mind. |
