RaptorBlog commenter draft: Your favorite NBA jersey of all-time

In our third installment of the RaptorBlog Commenter Draft, I want you to share your favorite NBA jersey design — past or present. Including a link to an example is encouraged so we can all admire your good taste.

The rules remain the same. I make the first pick and then you each make your picks in the comments. Once somebody makes a pick, it's off the board. And once you make a pick, you can't make another until five more picks are made after yours.

My first pick wasn't an easy decision for me, but I have to go with the jersey that elicits the same "That's gangsta!" reaction out of me every time I see it: the old-school San Francisco Warriors jersey.

It's difficult for me to explain why I like this one so much — I just do. Of course I dig the old-school vibe. But I think it's also the complete lack of "design" that appeals to me. Logos and uniforms are so slick these days, there's something excellent about the simplicity and quiet confidence of this jersey. Maybe it's the way it reps San Fran as simply "The City" with the identifying Golden Gate Bridge on the front and the cable car on the back.

The San Fran Warriors throwback is nearly impossible to find these days, which only adds to its appeal. What jersey does it for you?
