Moderators AHF Posted June 24, 2015 Moderators Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 As I said, I was an Atlanta Hawks fan. I never agreed to be an Atlanta Atlanta Triangle fan. The team changed, I didn't. Not sure how that is hard to follow... Let's give @Sothron some time here and not play the "is he a real fan?" game. Hopefully, this will be less of an issue with some time. It would be a crappy thing to endure all the ASG fiasco and then have the last straw be some uniforms that will probably change again in a few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlhawks1 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) Even though i like a more traditional look, which the Hawks havent had since St. Louis, the new ones i think are ok. I believe they will look even better on the players....... Edited June 24, 2015 by atlhawks1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ATLSmith Posted June 24, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 My favorite quote of the day: Kyle Korver: "I feel much cooler as a 34-year-old man in this uniform than I did before I put it on.” 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I like em. Being a Nike Head, it makes sense using the volt colorway in advance of them taking over the uniforms in '17. I never buy fan merchandise but I gotta snatch those vintage grey sweat shorts. Even if you don't like them they surely evoke discussion. Stevie K is more important to this franchise than most players who've stopped through. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Mrs. Sothron said I can't stop supporting the team due to a jersey change. Although she agrees they are horrible looking. So I'm sure I'll find some way via the radio broadcast to support the team still. @Sothron, you know she's right, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member sturt Posted June 24, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Wait. Not anxious to see you move on, Sothron... you've been a great fan... but you might want to see how the COURT gets re-designed first. *wink* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't learned this much about colors since I was in pre-k. No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they will look even better on the players....... They looked like crap on the players IMO ... guess we're the Oregon ducks of the NBA now. Changing uniform/image isn't going to make the Hawks fanbase bigger or more dedicated. Adding the right players in FA might help but ATL has always been a fickle market in every sport. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Well, it looks like they also short-changed them (they were in St. Louis from '55 to '68...). Maybe that '58-69 is in direct reference to the Hawk holding the ball logo? It still is wrong since they attached "Saint Louis" next to it.But anyway, that wasn't the one I was thinking of...I'm honestly shocked that @lethalweapon3 did not notice that the infographic states that Lou Hudson was the 1st overall draft pick in 1966. He was selected 4th. http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/h/hudsolo01.htmlThe Hawks have only had three #1 overall pick in their entire history (1952, 1955 and 1975) and one of them (David Thompson) decided to skip the NBA for the ABA. So really, they've only had two #1 draft picks. http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/ATL/draft.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
