sorry to bother you with this one but Jerseys are not my speciality. Any help is greatly appreciated. THANks a lot.

It looks like a cheap Knockoff

That's definitely a fake, and a pretty poor one.

Rodman was named to the All-Star team twice ('90 & '92), and the Eastern conference wore white uniforms in '92. (The style of jersey you posted)

Champion NBA ASG jerseys are normally double tagged, and 48 is too big a size for a Champion jersey worn by the Worm. As a Bull, he was a 46 + 3".

Not knowing anything about Basketball, something about the way those numbers are stitched.....it is all wrong. The numbers themselves seem awfully 'shiny' to me as well.

At least in the case of football jerseys, the stitching is much thicker and more consistent on the twill numbers and the numbers have a dull, flat look to them. I could be wrong in saying Basketball jerseys/numbers would be the same but I personally would be very uncomfortable with these variables.

Exactly. Those numbers looks like the ones they use for the bootleg
football jerseys on Ebay.

THanks so much guys, these days on ebay... Hopefully I can settle my case on ebay with this seller. May post one more jersey that I am not sure about! Thanks again!

Here is the second one I am trying to guess. The seller stated that it is a rare European version of an authentic Champion jersey:

Looks like a retail jersey, and the tagging is not right...the second tag does not appear on NBA game jerseys (neither does the collar tag), and Champion sizes during their NBA contract are all numbered on game jerseys...not alpha designators. Finally, these armhole cuts were not used until Nike began making game Lakers jerseys. Champion last supplied the Lakers in 1996-97, and the traditional armhole cut was still used then.

I wouldn't take that Kobe if YOU bought it for me....

Same shiny numbers & stitching as the Rodman....
