What not to wear
Personal foul on whoever designed those hideous NBA All-Star Game uniforms!
Look at this photo: The West All-Stars wore jerseys with white fronts and gold backs, while the East sported blue fronts with silver backs. Since the players don’t always face the same direction, at times it looked there were four different teams on the floor at once. It made the game difficult to watch.
And look at the difference in this photo between the East’s silver and the West’s white. I can’t speak for what it looked like in person, but on my standard-def TV (yeah, I’m behind the times) and in this photo, the differences are so subtle you could easily confuse a West All-Star for a player from the East. If anyone ever played defense at these games, we might have seen 50 turnovers last night.
