Re: NBA Showoff Thread!

This is my photomatched Jason Kidd road jersey that was worn for most of the second half of the 2008-09 season. According to Meigray records Kidd wore this jersey in 22 road games between 1/9 & 4/12/09. It was worn when he scored his 15,000 career point on 2/2/09 vs Orlando.

Hi,

here's a game worn 1990-91 New York Knicks jersey from Brian Quinnett.
In my opinion this style is the best the Knicks ever had especially with the arched NOB.
Photomatched to a NBA Hoops Card and also to game 1 of the 1991 Playoff series against the Bulls. (the wrinkled numbers are sewn that way which make it unique,as is the handcut rendering of the numbers, larger space between the q and the u)

Greetings from Germany

Re: NBA Showoff Thread!

I have a jersey that was used for 2 seasons. Less than 10 years ago too.

Re: NBA Showoff Thread!

I'd guess back in 80s era no more than 4 homes 4 roads. the 83/84 season of all the pics I have there are only 2 roads.. The answer as to why Game 6 road rookie reappeared 4 yrs later went to the grave with old trainer Fat Jack Curran. I'd doubt that even Magic himself could answer that question. Don't think these dudes paid much attention to the specifics of what they wore. Fat Jack was the one leaked this shirt into the hobby.

That's an interesting tidbit. I think you're right that most of the players probably didn't know or care what jersey was what. By most reports the league was struggling at that time to gain popularity and stay viable. Very different from how it is today.

Re: NBA Showoff Thread!

Intriguing. I'm curious as to why they ended up re-using a 4 year old jersey. Is there an accurate estimate on how many jerseys players would go through back in those days? Today guys seem like they wear a new jersey every night (or two). I wonder how many game jerseys Magic Johnson has in his collection today, if any.

I don't know about way back then or what it's like now. Earlier in Derek Fisher's career and in that mid to late 90s era at least, some of the commons would use the same jersey over again for at least part of the next season. I think though now, with how the hobby is, it is probably down to about a 5% chance anyone, even a common wears the same jesey more than a season.

I'm speechless about that Magic Johnson. I'm been wondering about that jersey for almost my entire life. To see it now.......mind blown.

SI 1980 Finals and 1984 Finals

Re: NBA Showoff Thread!

Based on he high res pics and videos I've gathered from 79-80 season, I believe this shirt was only worn during the NBA Finals of that year. It was worn in all the road games of that series -games 3,4 and the infamous game 6. Amazingly it was recycled and used again thru-out the 83-84 season including all road playoff games and then worn in the 84 Finals vs Celtics in games 1,2,5 and 1st half of game 7 only. This was the series that Boston Garden had no AC where court temperatures hovered in the mid 90 degree range.
