I just made the connection in my head between those jerseys and my mtb trails becoming more crowded.

I almost missed that. That was SICK.

My mom will be delighted. She loves purple and has never forgiven the Jazz for changing colors. She mentions it many times every season.

From the Utah Jazz Note podcast on the jerseys: "It would come to represent a change in fortunes, Jazz breaking through the post season plateau to reach the NBA finals in back to back seasons, and eventually the mountains would mark the end of an era, as the hall-of-fame careers of John Stockton and Karl Malone came to a close in Utah".......this......this is why the jerseys mean so much. Not because they are 100% the most beautiful thing out there, but the fact that they represent everything Utah Jazz, these are the jerseys everyone thinks of when you mention the Jazz, Karl, or John. Now we have Rudy and Donovan, and hopefully they can make them every bit as iconic and remember-able.

Obviously it’s a matter of opinion, but I couldn’t disagree more with your take. Yes, we made the Finals in those jerseys but Stockton and Malone played the overwhelming majority of their careers in the J-Note uni’s. That’s the jersey that myself (and I think most others) think of when they think about Stockton and Malone. I also remember quotes from both players stating that they didn’t really care for the uni’s and would have preferred to keep the originals.

As humans, we’re sheep when it’s comes to nostalgia, so I get it. This stuff sells. I know I’m in the minority, but I think it’s an ugly uni that’s extremely dated to an era in which the NBA seemed intent on churning out as many horrible uni’s/color combos as possible. The J-Note is one of the most classic, cleanest looking logos/uni’s in the league and I’d be just fine if the mountain and city edition uni’s got put away for good.

Damn, that court looks rich.

These Jerseys are fantastic. Perfect match with one of my favorite Jordan 5's The Retro Grapes.AKA the Fresh Princes...

Yeah, not a fan of the new jerseys.

Also not a fan of teams having like 6 different jerseys and having them change season to season.

Couldn't disagree more. The more jerseys the better imo.

I never really liked the purple mountain jerseys back in the day, but they are pushing all sorts of nostalgia buttons now.

....they are pushing all sorts of nostalgia buttons now.

Get well soon, braugh.

Get well soon, braugh.

If we get a ring in these uniforms I'll be cured. Well, either that or it'll be terminal.
