Hi all,
Can anybody take a stab at these? These powder blue jerseys which the San Diego Clippers wore in 82-83 are not in the game
Neither are the home ones. While the text on the front is the same as the 1984 ones that are already in the game, the pattern on the sleeves/waste is different.
The court itself is unique, yet plain. It has the powder blue paint, but nothing in the center or on the sidelines/baselines. Not sure if anybody had the time to take a stab at that.
Terry Cummings himself also had hair that season, which we dont have in the game.
Intriguing team that battled injuries, including a loaded front court. Terry Cummings, Tom Chambers and Bill Walton were on this team (Walton only played 33 games), and they acquired Lionel Hollins as well. Randy Smith was in his final year, and former ABA all-star and 79-80 rebound champ Swen Nater was hurt all season and only played 7 games. The team had a ton of skill, and were coached by Paul Silas.
Thinking about starting a MyLeague using this team and uploading gameplay videos to my channel. If anybody can help it would be great!
Thanks!
Also, if you want to see this team in action (One of the rare times they had the full team together), here they are against the Lakers on 11-26-1982. Home jerseys look a little different in this one for some reason, but you can see the talented front court of Walton/Cummings/Chambers, with Randy Smith who it may have been his last season, but he clearly had some game left.
Some great play by Magic Johnson in this one.
