Changing team colors?
Since last summer the guys on 1080 said the team is flirting with the idea of revamping the uniforms and team colors for the '09 season.
If you were pressed, what color scheme would you choose? I think Black/Green/Yellow would look pretty sweet.

Re: Changing team colors?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say "Black, Scarlet, with Silver trim. 
I mean why change a good thing?

Re: Changing team colors?
^That would be nice. Definately don't get rid of the scarlet and black though.

Re: Changing team colors?
I see no reason to discard the colors they've had for close to 40 years, because of a short stretch of time where there were idiots on the team.
Changing the colors is a gimmick that teams that are stupid do. The Lakers don't change colors. The Celtics don't change colors. The Bulls don't. The Knicks don't.
The Blazers shouldn't.

Re: Changing team colors?
Well, going with the Northwest theme and the Trailblazers name, they should include an earth tone color like green or brown. Perhaps not a prominent color, but a secondary one. Red and black are so arbitrary.

Re: Changing team colors?
Black and scarlet sounds good. But silver trim makes it sound even better.

Why change whats been solid for almost 40 years?
The Blazers aren't a NW team, they're Portland's team.

Re: Changing team colors?
I like our current color scheme, but if we had to change colors, I think a dark forest green and orange could work, and would be a unique mix in the NBA.

Re: Changing team colors?
I could see a jersey change but colors get a big no from me. Like someone said before, you don't mess with the historic teams like that.

Re: Changing team colors?
I wouldn't change the colors at all. I like them.
I'd go back to our old Jersey's though, the throwback with the cursive "Portland" or "Blazers" across the chest in red. Those were sick, imo.

Re: Changing team colors?
Don't change the colors.
A really, really stupid idea.
Steve Patterson, John Nash stupid.
Don't do it.

Changing team colors?
Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Oden are the FUTURE!
