With some mixed reactions from fans, as usual, the uniforms seem to be receiving positive feedback for the most part. The favorites that stand out seem to be the Milwaukee Bucks. The incorporation of the antlers along the side of the uniforms makes for a sleek appearance any player would want to wear.

On the flip side, the Portland Trail Blazers' special uniform is being criticized for its lack of color. The uniform looks as though someone set the picture to “black and white” settings to watch the game.

However, this is a cool gesture made by the NBA front office, rewarding these franchises with a unique outfit to represent on the court. With the Lakers' receiving that “Trophy gold” other organizations from around the league will aim to knock the Lakers off their pedestal come playoff time.

Catch the Lakers play against the Indiana Pacers on Friday for a potential glimpse of the new uniforms in action. Fresh off the All-Star break, the 16 teams who have acquired the NBA Earned Jerseys will be wanting to flaunt their new apparel as soon as possible.
