Keeping with the "bringing back old school" trend going on...

These would work so much better if they could be the "Bullets" again.

Don't find them really special or anything.

My favorite Wiz unis were the gold jerseys with black shorts.

great to see the old bullets look. i think its a great change, their color scheme was atrocious.

MaTT4281 @ 5/10/2011 9:04 PM

I had to do a double take to see whether they actually changed back to the Bullets.

I like them. Much more than the retro revive of GS or Philly.

I did not even recognize him. Wall doing the Buster Douglas?

NYKBocker @ 5/11/2011 9:59 AM

I also like these new colors. Do they put the old "Bullets" jerseys on retro week?

MSG3 @ 5/11/2011 11:14 AM

I heard someone a few months back say that the Wizards and Knicks would have new uni's for the '11-'12 season. I guess he was right about 1/2 so far. Hopefully we go with the retro uni's that we sported this year. I love those.

Nalod @ 5/11/2011 11:39 AM

Is the "Wizard" gone?

I like the "dc" logo. Like the old "BB" thing they used to do.

I do like the black and gold retro ones they had. The old Bulletts always had good uni's. Even the crazy early 70's they had were great!

Knicks, I hope they go retro.

They'll do what makes the most money.

Rangers have a great hockey uniform and it never changes. Strong brand identity always sells. Yankees, celtics, Giants, and Dodgers all do well with it.

JohnWallace44 @ 5/15/2011 8:43 AM

Same color scheme as philly though.

Wiz need a name change like no other team in pro sports.

they did have that ugly ass third jersey with the Statue of Liberty head on it...

Though the third jersey they introduced this season is fucking awesome

Me too. While I hate the idea of copying the Lakers, I must say I do like their "Sunday Whites" thing they got going on. Yellow and Purple jerseys, except for the Sunday matinees, which are white. I'd be down for something like that, except maybe "Sunday Oranges"

Nalod @ 5/15/2011 10:34 AM

The St Patty day Green gotta go. THey look like mutant christmas tree Celtics on those nites!

Just go white with green trim to celebrate the holiday.

The "Latin America" thing is to contrived for me. Its reeks of disingenuous marketing. If your gonna do that go Chinese, hebrew and russian.

I think the Wiz uniforms are not so much red as orange which is what was used back in the day. Reds and oranges are the hardest colors to replicate in digital photo reproduction.

Yea me too: I really liked the gold jersey/black short combo. I get the return to red, white and blue but something doesn't quite feel right with the execution of this new uni. HATED that dumb construction paper Gandalf logo and the teal though... but what is "wizardly" about this new identity besides the name.

DrAlphaeus @ 5/16/2011 1:11 AM

O jeez... did they keep that dumb wizard or is someone on Wikipedia pulling my leg? 'Cause this looks like Globetrotter Santa now.

jrodmc @ 5/17/2011 3:42 PM

Another stupid exercise in political correctness... like bullets are offensive in and of themselves...why the warriors? That reeks of violence. Or the flames? That reeks of ...arson. Amongst other things. Raptors have teeth...that's violent.

Can't wait for the first franchise that adopts the "marshmallows"

Nalod @ 5/17/2011 11:15 PM

Guns don't kill people, bullets kill people.........
