The Spurs' unis are silver. I'm not sure if they are the same silver we saw a few years back. I hope not.
Here's the schedule of games.
hopefully something like this....

Has it already been seventeen whole memorable years of Magic history?![]()
The pic I posted was the home uni from 73-76.
I can still see The Whopper's sweat stains on it.
That would be funny if they came out in short shorts for a half.....
I could imagine Duncan now....and then give him the Kareem goggles....
Would make a good photoshop project....

How dare you mention Duncan and Kareem in the same post!
If it's some of the badass silver uniforms, I'll make sure to buy one, no matter the damn cost cause I've been lookin for a good retro Duncan/Parker/Gino jersey for awhile ... though I'd prefer a Robinson one.
They're not going to be available for purchase until February.
That's lame as - so much for asking the GF to get me one for christmas.

This was Donnie Freeman in his one season with the Spurs.
I just looked at the schedule and noticed it's only home games (silver). It's a shame they won't have the black this year.
No - No!!!!!!

You're just mad the Raptors wouldn't be involved.
Why do you have an ellipse in the le?

She must have edited it. There used to be an ellipse there.
I hope they're the gray and not the silver ones. I'm not a big fan of the gray uniforms, but those silver ones from 2004 were disgusting.
