10 things the NBA needs to bring back

1. Glasses and goggles. You telling me that this and this wouldn't make the league more enjoyable to watch?

2. #00. Greatest number ever.

3. Everday throwback jerseys. I like the moves by teams like Golden State and Cleveland by bringing back their old jerseys as alternates as much as anyone but shouldn't we able to see Denver, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia playing with these jerseys everyday?

4. The Charlotte Hornets. You can move the Hornets back to Charlotte and combine the Grizzlies with the Bobcats and more the Grizzlycats to Las Vegas. Kill two birds with one stone.

5. The Bullets. Change Washington Wizards back to the Washington Bullets. Removing the "violent" name didn't change that much in the city.

7. Five game series in the first round.

8. Big cities having great teams. It is a sad day when Boston, New York, and Philadelphia are sitting outside the Eastern Conference playoffs and the Lakers are just one game ahead of their sister team Clippers. Trust me, when the finals is between Cleveland and San Antonio, you will agree too.

9. This guy. Look how young he looks. That was just a few years ago. Larry Legend looks like he hasn't slept in months. Ron Artest and Stephen Jackson have destroyed not only the Pacers, but Legend as well. Get him off of the team, promote him to some special role in the NBA. And on that note...

10. Not this commercial. According to this story, the commerical is going to feature D-Wade and Bron Bron matching shot for shot to re-create the classic Bird vs. MJ duel. Unless the commerical ends with Larry Legend or MJ coming off of nowhere to make shots that the young kids can't make, I won't watch it.

I hate how the only throwbacks that get any burn are the real old ones! I want the Bill Ownes years Warriors joints and the Shawn Kemp Seattle ones, the T-Wolves when their best player was Doug West...excpet for those garabage Hawks joints with the Hawk on the front...you kiddin me with those?
