We are going to talk about the best jerseys in the NBA for 2026.
I have every single division pulled up,
every team in every division on here.
We're going to pick the top five jerseys in these divisions.
Let's go.
So across all the teams,
which teams make the cut?
Five jerseys for the Pacific Division first.
Where are we going?
Who's number one?
Listen, honestly, the kings have,
this is the one area where the kings can be in a top five.
They can be.
They're not automatically disqualified.
I don't think there's a clear one-of-way, like, winner.
Personally, I love the City jersey for the Golden State Warriors this year, the brown and cream one.
That to me is one of my top fives, but I can understand if people don't put it up there.
I wouldn't put it up there.
I think the...
I think the Suns or the Warriors should be number one.
The Clippers Red is also very good.
It is.
The Clippers Red is elite.
It may be a three-way tower, no.
There's no, like, no one set themselves apart for real.
Low-key, listen.
Golden State White is also iconic.
That Black King's one is speaking to me.
It's nice.
I like the Black King ones, too.
Number one, though?
it low key might be it it's up there i think it's top three give me it a cream for number one to go
to state warriors personally we're doing the number one yeah does that deserve be ranked above the
golden state warriors standard jersey no i think the blue warriors jersey i think the white is better
in the blue i think the white is the most iconic one either one i'm fine i kind of think
i kind of think warriors white and warriors cream have to be on there and then you guys want to do black
kings and i think red clippers has to be on there maybe sun's valley to round it out
Sun Valley definitely got to be there.
It's crazy that the Lakers aren't
on this top of all.
Yeah, well, man, fix your jersey.
You can be on bullshit.
Take away the highlighter.
And maybe we can be back in the conversation, Lakers.
Yeah.
So number one.
So white warriors won.
Okay, we'll go with the iconic jersey.
It is better than the league.
We'll go with the iconic one up at the top.
The cream has to be towards the bottom,
just because it's just a city jersey.
And I think it's cool.
I think the colors are cool.
I'm basically just off of how good the jersey looks.
I don't give a fuck about if it's iconic or not.
I want to go black kings too.
Okay.
Do you disagree with that?
I can't hit on it.
Listen, we got to be nice to the Kings once.
I don't think you've ever been nice to the Kings on the show.
They got to win something.
I don't think I've ever said a good thing about the Sacramento Kings or the city of Sacramento.
So I can say you're the second best jersey in the Pacific Division.
They got to get a franchise player in that Jersey, man.
Please.
I'm kind of thinking Clippers Red is up next.
I was about to say the same.
Clippers Red is beautiful.
Let's roll.
And then I think we round this out with Cream Warriors.
And the Valley.
Is the Valley better than the Cream Warriors?
No, I like Cream Warriors more.
I like just my own word.
Fertesetic.
But does the Valley
had to be number five?
Can we entertain
the new purple Lakers?
It's really cool.
I like it,
but I think I like the Valley better.
Maybe the other Clippers
standard jerseys.
The white one's pretty nice too.
That one is,
we can go there.
But I don't think I would.
I would go with the white clippers
before I went with the Purple Lakers.
Okay.
There's also the White Kings.
The King's City jersey is also nice,
honestly,
with the beam team jersey?
Listen, they've been on it.
They don't win any games.
They have been losing in style.
They don't win any games,
but they do put that shit on when they lose.
So we want to put two kings here for the first time.
And I can't believe we lost to the Kings, Matt.
But do we just go with the Valley?
Sure.
I mean, honestly, no.
Like, I feel like we're putting the Valley up here for
for history.
Yeah, it's earned it.
But it is a nice jersey, though.
But the Kings have been doing stuff.
Fuck, it looks at the Kings.
We do need to recognize them.
We talk so bad about them.
We need to give them the problem.
The King's City or the King's White?
Kings White, I think.
Kings White.
Okay, the Kings get two placements on this list.
The first time they ever double up the Lakers like this,
salute the Sacramento Kings.
Nothing else good will be said for you for the rest of this calendar year,
but you do have two good jerseys.
The Sacramento Kings just made history,
not by playing basketball, but just putting that shit on me.
Good for them.
Now, next division, no sons and no Lakers.
That's a bit surprising.
I wonder people agree with that.
They probably don't.
Next up.
Oh, what is this?
Southeast Division.
Where are we going first?
All right.
Instantly has to be on here.
One of the new magic jerseys.
And Miami Vice, the black one.
They had that this year again.
To me, that's one.
Hmm.
The new white magic is...
That's up there too.
It speaks to me.
I would have that one.
All I know is the Wizards are not touching this list at all.
Their goal is not that bad.
You're goddamn right.
They're not touching this list.
The goal is nowhere close to touch this list and neither are the other ones that you change.
Some down to go, white magic at one.
and then Miami Vice had two.
I think Miami Vice is better than White Magic.
Just because the font of the magic one I don't love.
I like White Magic number one.
Okay, why Magic number one it is.
Yeah.
I don't hate that.
I just wish the font was a little bit different.
Yeah, I can understand that.
Is Miami Vice clearly number two?
Yes, clearly.
For sure.
You know what I like a lot?
The red Miami Heat Jersey in the last like six years,
they changed the cut of it and they changed the collar a little bit.
It's like a thick fabric that looks a little bit different from every jersey.
The red heat jersey looks amazing on court.
It does.
I do like that.
We try and put that in the top three.
I'm looking to do it.
I think the Hornets,
I think the Hornets,
teal, light blue,
whatever,
that one is very nice to me.
I can understand that.
I like the red a little more,
but I think both could be on there.
The Hawks red is so bright.
It's kind of a overwhelming.
I focus with the Hawks Red and the...
The Hawks are kind of boring.
The Black and Yellow's fire.
It looks good.
I feel like these jerseys have always looked better on paper
than they have on court.
I agree.
It's super bright on court.
Yeah.
The idea of these jerseys have been really, really nice,
but I don't think that they've been executed well.
The blue magic jersey also deserves to be mentioned.
There are other base jersey.
Wow, man.
So the last three spots.
Heat red, I think we can put on that.
Should go heat red, Hornets, blue, and then Orlando Blue.
Orlando Blue, are we sure?
I think those are clearly the last three.
Okay, top four are on there for sure.
It was tough.
The heat other two base jerseys are also nice,
but we can't do this many heat jerseys.
They're not special enough to do that
I think in Orlando Magic's
The Warner Magic is special enough to have a double jersey
For sure.
No Hawks though?
Personally, I would vote for the Hawks black and yellow.
Hawks Black and Yellow versus
Orlando Blue.
Thing is, you've never seen Nikolakia Alexander Walker
run down the court with this black and yellow
like I have.
You never seen it.
I think I might have seen it a time or two.
And would have moved you.
Ah, that's a tough one.
They're very similar.
Any love for Peachtree?
No.
The shit is ass
The font is so outdated now
It looks like a 2017
Under Armour High School Football jersey
Yeah, it's terrible
It's not terrible but it's just not
It doesn't belong useless at all
The one that says Atlanta with the cursive
Is much better
Yeah
I think we go Orlando Blue
Yeah
And then we can't be mad at it
We reward a good rebrand
We have a nice colorful lineup here
For this division
I'm not mad at this doll
Yeah
Okay
Damn wizards
They're so ass
It just exists
They need a rebrand
So bad
If they don't rebrand this summer
after drafting AJ DeBonce or whatever it's going to be
they're going to start a new era out.
They're going to start a new air off disgustingly.
Whoever was their graphic designer
years ago when like put this on
paper for them and told him to roll out with this.
They need to find him. Put him under
investigation. Lock him up because he tanked your
Jersey service. It was fine back then, but he has
job security. They're not getting off of that design.
Yeah. Next up.
The Central Division.
Who gets the number one spots?
We got some Cream City
number one. There's some heavy hitters on here.
Cream City's hard as hell.
I love the Cavs white jersey a lot personally.
The cast have two winners to me, damn here.
And the Cavs Navy Blue Throwback has to be up here.
Yes.
I think, okay, the Navy Blue Throwback, yes.
I don't think the white needs to be up here.
Yeah, it doesn't need to be.
I love the white, but I know everybody doesn't agree.
I think the gold looks beautiful in the white jersey.
Dude, look at the, look at the shorts throwback jersey.
That has to be up there too.
That, that T.
That's your Tio one as well.
Okay.
That's hard as a city jersey this year.
It's like a reference to throwback.
That's so hard.
I don't think they ever wore a great one like that.
Bull's black pinstripe is up here.
We have to put the Bulls.
I've always liked the Bulls red more personally.
I think it.
And I also love the Bulls white.
I really love white jerseys as you can tell.
I'm okay with any of those Bulls jerseys.
Whatever Bulls' reputation you all want to decide on.
I like them.
I like them.
Red?
Yeah.
All right, fine.
You can do black.
It don't matter to me, right?
Any one of them Bulls jersey.
It's classic.
Okay.
Cavs number one.
Yes.
Cavs throwback number one.
Should we do the black?
I think more people would agree the black is better than the red.
The black pinstripes?
For the Bulls?
Yeah, it's cool.
We'll do black pinstripes number two.
It's slightly more interesting just with the pinstripe.
Yeah.
I think Bulls White deserves a consideration for the rest of this list.
Does Cream City enter the conversation yet?
I don't think so.
No.
Not at all?
It doesn't actually.
It's not top five.
It's either one or it's 20.
One or 20?
You decide what side you're on.
And we already decided it's not one.
Also, on court, I really like the Pacer City jersey this year.
The white one?
Yeah.
I would rather go Pacers yellow if we're going to go Pacers.
I would rather go Pacers.
I would do that.
I would do it.
I don't think the Pacers can touch this.
unfortunately.
No, I actually think
either the Pacer's City
or the Pacers' Yellow
should be in the top five.
Pacer's Yellow could maybe
get the back half.
Dude, so we want to go
Detroit City Jersey with those
old school colors?
I want to go to Detroit
right now.
He got it.
Okay, we can go to Detroit number three.
Give that to you.
Bucks, if anything
for the Bucks is getting here,
it's the black.
It's nice.
It's not an all for a jersey.
I'm not moved by right now.
The blue trims with the black
and the cream really does move me.
I'm not moved by it right now.
Bulls white, potentially.
Bull's white or Pace's yellow.
You guys don't fuck with the black Cavaliers jersey?
Absolutely not.
I hate that big-ass logo.
Damn, man.
I remember we told Darius Garland that and he was befuddled
because he loves that jersey and I can't.
I hate that big logo.
Wow, man, it's firing.
And I hate numbers that are offset like that on the side.
But this is the perfect, this is the best way to do it
if you're going to offset something.
That is a practice jersey with that big ass logo.
I think it is horrible.
So Bulls-white, Paces Yellow?
I can't argue against the Bulls White.
Again, that's a classic.
Okay, last spot.
Pacers yellow or Bucs Black?
I can't fuck with the Pacers.
Pace's yellow.
Do you go three bulls?
We can't do it.
I had to go three bulls personally.
I think we could glaze the bulls a little bit
when it comes to jerseys.
We don't have to.
We don't have to.
Three bulls is crazy.
You can sell me on a different jersey.
Give me a soliloquy.
Tell me why the Pacea yellow is better than the Red Bulls.
It's just a lot of glaze.
I don't know if I'm comfortable with that level of glaze right now.
But this is some of the best branding
in the history of fucking sports.
So it's completely necessary.
It's all they got.
If you're going to give them something,
it has to be this jersey.
Go ahead.
And it's not like it's a terrible idea either.
Go ahead and move off the screen.
It pains you to say good things about the Bulls.
Go ahead.
The Bulls get three jerseys on here.
I think the Bucks Black could be debated number five.
Let me see the Patriot's Yellow.
Let me know where it's a new division.
Dream City is a new division.
It's like, I know he lied.
That's get fucked.
Idiot.
Next up.
Ooh, the Atlantic Division.
Heavy hitters here.
My first thoughts.
Kith, New York, Nick's Jersey.
Cream.
gotta be one.
I love that jersey so much.
Now the Sixers throwback jersey
could be one as well.
Oh, that's heavy hitter.
So is the Brooklyn Nett City jersey bringing back to Koogee.
We got three
heavy hitters here.
Three heavy hitters.
Put the Sixers at one.
Okay, just for the history.
They finally brought it back
after you wanted it for so long.
And it looks good.
Nick's number two.
I think Nick's City jersey
with the off white is gorgeous.
Let's do it.
And this is a jersey I could actually wear
The colors look so good.
Cream continues to prevail.
He's like, you know we're going to put on for cream.
Under any circumstance, don't be surprised.
Brooklyn Nets, we're putting that at three.
Coogee?
Yes.
Okay, well, slow down, though.
No, I think that that is a solid top three,
and that is a tier of its own,
and then everybody goes into it.
I don't know if I like it.
Like, the Nets are just,
no one would be really wearing this jersey.
Because you're not outside like that.
It's okay.
Like, I don't think,
The Nets players are cool with this jersey on
or maybe just because Nets players are not a good basketball team.
Yeah, it's just, it's fucking me up right now.
Now, tier two.
I really like the Raptors white.
The little arrow pointing up with the white text
inside the white blank works for me.
It's never been, you know what?
Raptors red also looks good.
We can put that on the short list.
I like the white more than the red.
Okay.
Do we got to put it Boston Celtics traditional jersey?
Hell not.
Boston's Celtics green is nice.
It's so traditional.
It screams basketball
I almost would have went to Boston Celtics
White but green's okay too
The green screams I am basketball
Like I feel like we had to include that
Sure legacy purposes why not
This is not a bad jersey
Yeah it's iconic
It's not bad at all throwing on it's never changed
It never will change Boston Celtics green deserves
To be the first traditional after the elite new ones
Low key
Are we going with the Philly Red over the Toronto White?
Philly Red is nice with the cursive text
Yeah Philly Red over
Toronto White and Toronto Red
I think that's five for me.
I can a lot.
Red jerseys are nice
with a nice bold white text.
I'm with it.
Let's go Philly Red number five.
You guys don't like the Philly
Navy Blue, the cursive on it.
Philly,
not really.
Listen,
Philly does have the best
they have the best jerseys
in this division.
Yeah, definitely.
They have the only team on here too.
This is the most even distribution
we've seen so far.
Every team got touched.
Yeah, okay.
We're touching teams today.
There's nothing for the rappers.
Never mind.
Rappers not getting touched.
As always, you were the underdogs.
Tell us how much we hate you guys.
They always say that, man.
Let me hear how much I hate the Raptors in the comments section.
1 through 10.
Gage my Raptors hate.
Today is honestly probably the most we've ever talked about in one episode.
I guess so.
Trade candidates, yeah.
Okay, this is the honestly the strongest division yet.
Next up, what is the division call again?
Southwest.
Southwest.
Yeah, the Southwest Division, where are we going?
San Antonio Spurs got to be towards number one.
The Fiesta?
I don't know if they're number one.
Yeah.
Fiesta's nice.
You know what?
I don't love the H-town jersey on paper.
It always looks good on court.
I don't know if it's top five, but I just want to say that.
Memphis's throwback Vancouver jerseys too.
Pretty tough.
Yeah, but I think the Spurses Fiesta is one.
Spursesvester is easily one.
And then Memphis throwback is two.
Yep.
Y'all like that jersey a lot.
I thought with it heavy.
I think it's cool for nostalgia.
I don't think it's that nice of a jersey.
Nice.
It's cool.
Okay, okay.
I'm out voted.
Is that number two?
Yep.
Like, I think the Memphis white jersey next to it is better.
That city jersey is pretty nice.
Nah, I don't like that one.
Okay, I'm out voted out.
Y'all like the black jersey.
Hey, this division.
kind of sucks. It does kind of suck.
There's a big drop off now. We're picking some thing. We're not
picking the MAG. I'm going to go ahead and delete the Mavs base jersey.
I don't want to look at these anymore.
The Mavs, Navy Blue, can stay on the screen.
Their green might have a fighting chance.
The Pelicans default jerseys, deleted from the screen.
The Spurs black and white, the Spurs gray, deleted from the screen.
That's fair. Spurs green that bad. Okay, so where's
is H-Town going for the USO-SOM? Is H-T
not to make it? I think it might.
White Rockets. I think the White Rockets jersey in general look good.
either one.
Those white jerseys are better
than the Raptors white jerseys for sure.
Yeah, the H-Town one is not...
You don't fuck with it?
It's okay, but it's not like amazing.
But I think the white Rockets is
is a little bit better, just because
it's simpler.
Do we put the New Orleans voodoo jersey on there?
I fuck with it heavy. That's one of my favorite jerseys.
I've never been a massive fan, but if y'all love it.
Yeah, I think we can do it just because
it's not a lot of great options here.
Yeah, every jersey we've done so far is black.
All the guys is, all we have is the different jerseys
because the bases in this division all suck.
Yeah.
Houston Rockets Red is nice too
He's in Rockets Red is pretty nice
Do you like the red over the white?
I don't love my
They need a rebrand
I don't love either of them
They have one
And it might be
I think it comes along
With the H-Town
Uniform
But they have one
When they have like the
Dunking astronaut
Yeah
I would love if that's the new rebrand
I'm kind of leaning
I know what I think we're underestimating
Grizzlies baby blue
Grizzly baby blue
The Grizzlies
usually have a lot of nice details
along the size and the collards and stuff.
How do we feel about Dallas Green now?
I like it personally.
I fucking hate Dallas Green.
Are we put the,
we're considering that?
I think you'd be a part of the conversation for sure.
I don't want to consider Dallas at all personally.
That green is nice.
Just out of principle?
Kind of.
I personally,
I kind of want to just finish it out
with Grizzlies Baby Blue and Grizzly City.
I like the Dallas Green a lot.
I mentioned it earlier.
That fine.
It's garbage.
Go Grizzly's Baby Blue.
Okay.
And then.
We can do a Spurs Blue.
or Spurs white. It's just classic and clean.
Are those
miles better than any of the Rockets? Are the Rockets getting any
representation today? I think the Rockets
jerseys are better than what's up
for those Spurs. I think we have a lot of mediocre options.
You can pick whatever we like the best because these all are not
good. Go Spurs. Dars. Pick a Rockets jersey.
Spurs Black. Spurs Black. That's where you want to go. Tiebreaker.
Yeah. Okay, whatever. Well, four black
jerseys and the Grizzlies. We're going to be blue.
Yeah. One dimensional
as division. Not a strong division at all.
It's also not a garbage division.
It's just a lot of mediocre jerseys.
Yeah.
Which I guess, I mean, most churches are not garbage.
So this probably is a garbage division overall.
Last one.
The Northeast Division.
Ooh, Utah.
Yeah, Utah white is...
Over Utah.
All I was going to do, Utah, purple.
They're both good.
They both have good contrast.
They're both going to be part of this list.
And put them one and two.
Oh, but not one and two, though.
Hold on.
Portland should be in here.
We have the Prince Jersey.
And we have the Timberwolves black jersey.
Two Timberwell's jersey.
Those are both iconic.
And beautiful still.
They hold up.
I think Timberwolves got to be two and one got to be Purple Utah.
I'm still not a massive Prince Jersey fan.
Well, to me, the Black Timber Wals is easily won.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm down with that.
That's not a competition.
That works so well for a modern blank with this design.
Now, can Utah solidify its spot in number two?
For Prince.
I like Prince a lot.
You don't like Prince?
Nah, it's not my vibe.
I think the Purple Utah one is better.
Okay, Purple Utah.
Something good is happening to the state for the first time.
There we go.
We're immediately eliminating
both Denver Nuggets-based jerseys.
That fuck-ass font
and the collar, I hate it.
No, the white's not terrible.
It's terrible.
It's atrocious.
The white jerseys in this
division are not amazing.
Yet honestly,
every other Trimblev jersey eliminated.
I really like the black Portland jersey.
It's very classic.
It's very nice.
And it looks nice now.
They change the collar up a little bit.
It's like a solid line in black.
It looks really good.
It's cool.
So I would like if we got Portland black on here.
I'm with you.
Northern Black here number three.
Utah could get,
you talk a double up
and get the white jersey.
Yes, let's do it.
Let's not make it.
Okay.
Utah.
This is legit.
And then we can go print
at five because I,
the thunder like,
eh,
whatever jersey.
Thunder jerse is or whatever on paper.
They look pretty good on court
with the orange text
and like the way they have
the numbers and the words
like the strokes around the fonts.
That shade war.
It looks really good on.
The orange jersey stands no chance,
but the blue and the white
look pretty good on court.
would you?
Nah, I can't go that way.
Okay, okay.
You're going Prince.
Prince over OKC.
Purple Rainey, I'm going with Prince.
Prince gets the number five, and there we are.
There's our top five.
Which, honestly, I don't know if there's much debate.
You can debate the order.
But these are pretty clearly the top five to me.
Yeah.
No jersey I hate the red trailblazers.
Oh, I just realized the things on the side.
It's these giant logos.
It's the big logo.
Practice jerseys.
Offset numbers.
Doesn't work for me.
No text.
on the front, I'm not with it.
But that O KC jersey.
No text on the front.
I hate no text on the front.
That's what it is.
Because when you have no text on the front and then you have the sponsorship, it really does look like a practice jersey.
It looks like a sleeve jersey from that era.
That's what they were doing.
Looks at those Christmas Day ones are the big ass logo with the sleeves.
Horrible.
I can see that.
PTSD.
Adidas tried to get back into the conversation on Christmas and they posted like a picture of all of their
Christmas uniforms.
And somebody quote tweeted them and was like, well, if you didn't.
give us these you know god-awful sleeve jersey we probably would still be rocking with the
dittes right now that's great they really did kill the era with the sleeve jerseys like it's
fully their fault they sold yeah man
