It’s one thing to point out/laugh at how silly these players dress, it’s a whole other thing to parrot that “You should dress in a suit cuz you’re a professional” nonsense.

So no, Jokic is NOT saying what we say on here everyday. :childplease:

What’s the problem? Posters on this site complain about the same thing.

For the record, wearing suits to the game is a bit much.
I agree the suits look better and thats what i would wear if i was in the NBA.
But i also understand that these athletes are basically marketing themselves and branching off into fashion money by wearing all these weird experimental shyt they light doing. Nobody would talk about Westbrook's off court activities if he was just wearing suits.
There is a difference between an All star player and a player that is a actual star/celebrity. Jokic is not gonna be on red carpet events like Dwade and them or angling for a career in hollywood, so boring professional attire is more suited for him.
Thing is those type of players, the Tim Duncan's, are largely forgotten about outside of sports fans when they retire, whereas Melo or Lebron, are going to be in the spotlight even after their careers are over.

Nah let them dress how they want. That's a whole market that is accessible to more people. I'm sure thats a whole revenue stream for the league. That shyt DO be looking horrendous but I like laughing at these nikkas fits

TYRONE GA!
i'm so glad tim duncan cleaned up his style. He looked fresh as hell as an assistant coach for the 2020 season and in his HOF speech, and presenting Manu

cuz man, he could ball, but he was easily one of the most swagless nikkas in terms of fashion :mjlol:
Tim don't need no "swag" to take yo bytch. :mjlol:
