The NBA has banned upside down headbands - Ball Don't Lie - NBA - Yahoo! Sports

Well, about a decade ago, when headbands were starting to come back into vogue after a 20-year or so absence, the NBA decided to cash in, and replace all the team-issued headbands they provided free of charge to their players, with a version that featured the famous NBA logo on top of the team colors. And you had to wear the logo'd version, for fear of a fine. Rasheed Wallace(notes) took it to the man by turning his headband inside-out, but the league came down on that, so Rasheed stopped.

How many people would even notice it anyway? Not really sure this is the way to make your league more popular.

Clearly this is an epidemic that had to be stopped. I am glad the NBA came in a put their foot down, good for them.

Needed to be done, imo, IMO. Was destroying the purity of the game.

Now they need to find a way to get rid of black shoelaces.

I had noticed in the last couple of years that the logo was upside down on most guys. I just assumed it was a dis to "the man". was wondering when the league would pick up on it and force them to stop.
