Detroit Pistons

Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons are an American professional basketball team based in Auburn Hills, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. The Pistons compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member club of the league’s Eastern Conference Central Division. The team plays its home games at The Palace of Auburn Hills and was founded in Fort Wayne, Indiana as the Fort Wayne (Zollner) Pistons in 1941, a member of the National Basketball League (NBL). The Pistons joined the Basketball Association of America (BAA) in 1948. In 1949, the NBL and BAA merged to become the NBA, and the Pistons became part of the merged league. Since moving to Detroit in 1957, the Pistons have won three NBA championships in 1989, 1990, and 2004.

Detroit Pistons Jersey

The Detroit Pistons, along with the rest of the NBA, unveiled their Detroit Pistons City Jersey for the 2021-22 season. Coming off a decade-long run of terrible alternate jerseys, the Pistons dropped a red-heavy look that harkens back to the 1970s lightning bolt look.It’s a hybrid of sorts.

The 1970s influence (utilized again in the 2000s) is seen on the new shorts, the 1980s are represented with the red alternate from the classic Bad Boys uniform style, and more red from the 2000s with this under-utilized alternate from the Goin’ to Work days.

And, yes, there’s a little teal on the trim.These appear to fall under the “anniversary” of the Fort Wayne Pistons, which you can sort of see in the new font used on the chest.

As for throwbacks-any resuscitation of the teals would fall under the throwback banner-they can only be worn in an anniversary year for the franchise. Eligible seasons in the near future would be 2021-22 (for the Fort Wayne Pistons) or 2027-28, which would be the 70th anniversary of the move to Detroit.

They aren’t just the normal Detroit Pistons jersey, recolored with the same font. That’s a win.

Plus, there are no TIRE TRACKS/ROAD LINES or SLEEVES, which, in itself, is a huge win.This is the first alternate jersey in awhile that hasn’t been rooted in automotive, at least on the surface. With the rise of electric vehicles, maybe it is? Either way, it’s a good look that should blend well with the new alternate 313 court.

Based on information over at NBA LockerVision, the Pistons are scheduled to wear the City Edition uniform at home this Friday against the Brooklyn Nets. I’m guessing Cade Cunningham will be out there, well rested for that game.

Lastly, with the the whole all-in on “teal” situation: these alternates either show that the franchise is determined to not go back to. that era, despite fan outcry for it, or that they’re keeping the full teal in their back pocket for when the team is actually good in a few years.
