Stop the introduction of sleeved NBA jerseys


Stop the introduction of sleeved NBA jerseys
The issue
This isnt soccer. This isnt volleyball. This is the NBA, the greatest basketball association in the world. So why introduce those hideous sleeves on NBA jerseys??
This isnt progression in jersey design, if anything its a giant step backwards. If slowly weening in sleeves is a way to have space to advertise, why not just put it on the front or back of the jersey and not forsake the jerseys design by putting on ugly sleeves that make players look ridiculous and limit some players with movement?
The backlash to the NBA All-Star game having sleeved jerseys proves the point enough with Twitter blowing up with the leak of the heinous sleeved All-Star jerseys;

The fans hate them, the players hate them, the owners even hate them;

We need to stop the introduction of sleeves NOW!
