Team USA's New Duds




(Boulder-CO) The good folks at Nike were generous enough to allow me to preview quite possibly the coolest (literally) basketball uniforms ever! Nike has recently introduced the Swift System of Dress basketball uniform, which will be worn by Team USA when they compete at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The new Nike designed uniform eliminates 24 centimeters of material and reduces the weight by 31 percent. The uniform also features Nike Aerographics, an engineered mesh providing zoned cooling that reduces up to half the yarn, making it more lightweight and breathable. An exclusively designed “We the People” graphic, inspired by USA’s rich history, is also integrated into the uniform.

Here's the Denver Nuggets' Carmelo Anthony sporting his new duds and giving a fan a jersey.



And another of 'Melo and the boys hanging out.

The Olympics start on August 8th, and you will be able to find complete game recaps chalked full of stats and analysis right here on The Nugg Doctor.

Bring home the gold.

Team U-S-A! Team U-S-A!
