If you have ever watched Project Runway, like my wife and I have for years, you know of Tim Gunn. The always-dapper Gunn is a highly regarded voice in the fashion industry.
And he gave the Warriors’ controversial new alternate uniforms a thumbs up. Kinda.
TIM GUNN: “If the shorts were four inches shorter, I would give the look a thumbs-up. I like the short sleeves. The color is fresh. But why aren’t their shoes uniform? Three guys and three different yellow shoes?”
So, in other words, he thinks they can Make It Work.

Well if Tim Gunn likes it, I need no further endorsements.

I like the updated logo. Like the colors. Even like the pin stripes on the pants. Loose the tight tee shirts. Go with same cut as they currently wear but with these design cues (logo, pin stripes on tops and bottoms etc) as an alternate uni. Logo is sort of a throw back to the Run TMC uni. Very cool. Shorts have to match top though

And accessories. The right accessories.
What does Mr. Blackwell think?

Black or dark blue shoes with this turrible outfit could salvage this look.

Warriors fans are so used to losing, they don’t know what winning looks like! Even the top teams have losing streaks. Check with the Clippers. The W’s are not a top team, but they are a good team.
Many Warrior fans, however, appear to be losers in that they are already throwing in the towel. Glad I cheer for the W’s, not the W’s whining fans.

Don’t really care about how the new uni’s look. Somebody needs to show the Warriors how to win games before they fall out of the playoffs again. Did Lacob tell the team that they do not have to tank games this year for a draft pick? They are so used to losing this time of year that it is hard to get it out of their system, I guess. They are starting to look like the Sharks.

I wish Tim would have said “make it work” as it relates to the last two weeks that the Warriors seem to have taken off prior to the All Star break. And, I see, the new jerseys are “only” $105. I think I’ll pass.

Marcus… Did he really say make the shorts a few inches shorter..? C’mon now, this ain’t cycling..

Bandwagon warriors fans ready to hop off the bandwagon… See above..

Did Peter Guber produce Project Runway?

Marcus, to commish’s point, can you address why you think the warriors have regressed recently?
I have discussed this a length with a few GSW fans. My take:
1. bogut actually is hurting us bc we run so many plays and he doesnt know them (offensively and defensively. In our “horns” set he looks miserable)
2. Our defensive system takes lots of energy so the guys are tired
3. D lee has struggled of late

Never ask an old white guy whats trendy or hip. He’ll be the least likeliest to know.
As for team performance, they really need to add a decent SG/SF who can come bench and provide extra scoring punch. Klay and Barnes are both unreliable night in and night out.
