What your summer basketball jersey says about you

1980s (and before) nostalgia

These jerseys are a bit harder to find, and are most likely more high-end expensive throwback jerseys since they come from the time before Champion-brand replicas ruled the day. So, if you’re wearing one, it’s not by accident. You probably didn’t pick one up on the cheap. You put some thought, effort, and financial investment into your choice. It really speaks a lot about you if you’re wearing one of these.

Magic Johnson: You’re a Lakers fan, but probably not the type who would have the audacity to defile one of the new murals to LeBron James. Shame on those who would.

Larry Bird: You would defile a new mural to LeBron James, in disguise as a Lakers fan, as a way to give a bad name to Lakers fans. No shame at all to you. Nothing but respect for that type of fandom.

Julius Erving: You hang out in jazz clubs surrounded by old heads. You may or may not be an old head yourself, but that’s where you hang, and that’s who you hang with.

Wilt Chamberlain: You think that the way to make this the cookout the best cookout of all time is to take over this cookout and do everything for the cookout. You don’t realize that one person can’t master the grill, make the potato salad, run the kickball game, make sure the cooler is full of beverages, and also make the cookout playlist. Let your friends do some of the work, everybody will have a better time.

Oscar Robertson: You have a very strong and deep understanding of the game of basketball. And you have annoyed all of your friends with this strong and deep understanding of the game.

Bill Walton: You are wearing this at a Grateful Dead concert. You are also Bill Walton.
