Off the Boston Garden like woodgrain parquet, it’s going to be a grey day for Brooklyn all next season like they’ve got no sleep, despite the Summer signings of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving bringing nothing but blue skies to the fight for N.Y.’s now premier New York team.
Sure the old wood rubbed like the dashboard of your car was signature in itself and this new grand design looks perfect for last years real king of New York, D’Angelo Russell, now across coasts in The Bay after his breakout season as he moves to San Francisco like Golden State and departing Durant to this station. But this grey in classic court designs is revolutionary. Besides Brooklyn have so many unique uniforms throwing it back in their cupboard collection of amazing apparel that it’s all about slick style no matter the season.
Colleges from Oakland to Oglethorpe have experimented with beautiful blacktops before. But this New York borough look that takes it back to the playground parks of NYC is the boldest and best first time anyone has made a move as such in the NBA.
This is the craziest court creativity, fading to black since the Lakers went ‘Lights Out’ in ’06.

And now they are just doing it again. Even bringing back the Subway signage design along the baseline that made for some perfect photo promos when they hosted the 2015 NBA All Star Game.
Next stop being born again on court for a sky’s the limit season.
Unbelievable.
