Thank God they didn't go with Under Armour.

Not sure what to think of this. I don't think it matters.

Under Armour is mainly going the endorsement route and concentrating on its innovations.

Even the NBA wants to be like the Tennessee Vols.

Funny, that's where I saw the tweet from. I think it was 24/7 saying the NBA is following Tennessee's lead

Hornets are getting Jordan brand apparel.

Under Armour>Nike for apparel and it isn't close

But for uniform purposes, not Under Armour.

It's not about how it looks. It's about the quality for me. And Under Armour is higher quality than cheaply made Nike products.

For me, I buy it as fan wear/casual apparel, it's only about how it looks. And Adidas stuff was the worst.

Adidas is very far behind. Nike and Under Armour are dominating the market in the U.S.

Shame Fila couldn't secure the deal.

Oh yeah, the shirts and shorts I love, but the uniforms look stupid.

 

[Dallasbowlin]
