    original Vancouver Grizzlies and/or 1980's Atlanta Hawks jerseys wanted

    Hey all,

    I'm looking to track down one of the following two jerseys:



    Vancouver Grizzlies
    game worn or issued
    size 40 or 42
    home or away



    Atlanta Hawks
    game worn or issued
    size 40 or 42
    home or away

    Basically, my deal is that I collect what I guess you would call "lower end" game worn/used/issued jerseys, because I typically buy them to wear them and I purposely target non-superstar players. Yes in a way I buy them to collect them, and I take good care of them, but it is not as much an investment as it is that I enjoy the jersey designs and like to wear them. So it's not incredibly important to me if it's been game worn or game issued, though I'd obviously like to know which it is upon buying it. I usually pay somewhere between $75 and $175 for these sorts of jerseys.

    So if anyone has a jersey from either team that fits the above description, any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

      Oh dear. That seems quite heated. Much more than it needs to be.

      I think the argument is simple...obviously if you purchase a Michael Jordan jersey from his rookie year for $20,000 or a George Mikan Minneapolis Lakers jersey, and then parade around in it, you're a dufus.

      But if you're buying a common jersey, one of a no-name player who happens to sport a design you like, and you pay less than $200 or $100 for it, then come on. Who cares.

      And the suggestion that those who wear game worn jerseys are spilling cigarettes and mustard and all this junk all over them...ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. It is completely possible to wear something without being a complete slob.

      Anyway, getting off topic here...

      Anyone have either of these jersey styles available?

        There's a 1980-81 hawks jersey on ebay right now for 175.00. Looks good to me. Check it out.
