All these alternates jerseys this year are sweet, but they’re also really confusing. Gone are the days when I could look at a still from a game and identify the teams instantly, because there’s a really good chance that one or both of them are wearing some crazy alt that has all sorts of weird colors on it. I know the periwinkle is supposed to pay homage to some old Kings/Royals team from some long-forgotten era of the NBA where everyone was high on cocaine all the time, but it makes Bogdan “BogBog” Bogdanovic look a little pudgy. Periwinkle is just not his color. I don’t think it’s anyone’s color, really, except for my grammie whose periwinkle pantsuit is FIRE.
If you want to prove that you are able to wear periwinkle-colored clothing and look good while doing it, feel free to send me a picture. Especially if you are a female and you are not wearing a shirt, or only part of a shirt is on your body. If you are a dude, don’t even bother actually. I don’t care anymore.
