This season's alternate jersey?

by Manimal Smith on Oct 13, 2009 1:51 PM EDT

Does anyone know what the Wiz will use as their alternate jersey this season? I am holding out hope that we go back to the red, white, and blue Bullets jersey so that I can finally procure a real one with current players on it (not that I'm not also looking to grab find legit Bernard King, Bobby Dandridge, and Elvin Hayes old school jerseys).

The run of the Gold Jersey and Zephyrs jersey has been pretty weak, and so whatever the year we use I hope its in the Bullets era.

This represents the view of the user who wrote the FanPost, and not the entire Bullets Forever community. We're a place of many opinions, not just one.

I don't know for sure, but I'd guess the Zephyrs jersey

Don't they usually have a new one each year

In order to promote jersey sales?

not sure

But this article shows how long teams have kept their alternate jerseys in the past…

Nice Icon of St. Caron

It’s really two separate issues. Are they going to wear the Zephyrs again as the throwback and will they retain the gold/black/white smores uniforms as the alternate.

pretty sure the gold/black/white unis are history

please please please go back to the orange bullets throwbacks as the permanent alternate jerseys.

They got dragged behind the shed

I found it on the SportsBog whilst looking for my own orange Arenas jersey recently. There’s been no announcement on the next alternate.

They're still selling the golds online

In fact, that’s the only Wizards alternate that they sell on the NBA’s web-store. Personally, I like them, but they look awfully strange w/ black shorts. Who really wears different color shorts and jerseys? It makes it look like they’re still in practice. “Oh, man, I knew we forgot something! There’s a game today! And we only have… 12 minutes?! We’d better just play in what we have on guys.”
