I promise this will be my last basketball post. Turns out the Kuwait Club’s basketball team’s uniform is ripped off from NBA’s Washington’s Wizards. How funny and sad is that? It even made it to the Washington Post! [Link]

Did we recently kick Lebanon’s ass in Basketball or something, is this what this is about? 🙂
J/K, seriously, if the above is true .. then its pathetic!
I still think Lebanese men can’t jump :p
Last time I watched basketball Charles Barkley was kicking ass with the Phoenix Suns!
lol
Last time I watched basketball, Magic Johnson was kicking Celtic’s ass! 🙂
totally sad..
WTH, should have used the same font, as well.
another day, another sad post 🙁
not big news sports clubs have been borrowing kits from each other for decades.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notts_County_F.C.#Juventus_F.C._shirts
Man Citys red and black is also a copy of AC Milan’s kit
I don’t see how this is a big deal.
Of course you wouldn’t…
Why wouldn’t he? I hope this isn’t a sarcastic, prejudice comment.
if you follow qster you would understand
srsly why is this big news, as i stated with evidence it happens all the time.
the argument is that they copied the wizards jersey. if you find that normal that doesn’t change the fact that they copied their jersey.
In football it happens all the time. Clubs borrow not only jersey colours but even names.
There’s Arsenal in London then there’s an Arsenal in Cameroon and another Arsenal in Argentina. There a Liverpool FC in Liverpool and there’s a Liverpool in Uruguay.
So explain to me how this is sad or even big news?
Again you’re not getting the point. The jersey is copied from the Wizards, that is a fact. Now if you think that’s normal or not that’s your business, I’m not here to convince you otherwise.
it is, mark is a closet kuwait h8er
lol wtf
lololol
No, no one borrows or copies other kits. They take inspiration from other kits yes, but you dont go ahead and exactly copy the same same kit. No one does that.
Plus, Manchester City’s away kit is not a copy of AC Milan’s kti – Manchester City wore the exact same kit in 1970.
Jeez, I never said the word “kit” some many times in my life !!
you’re right. Katayt wayed…

Before typing check your facts
They didnt copy it – they used the same colours – big difference between an exact copy and using the same colours.
They could have at least picked a team that actually wins! j/k
it’s so so sad really!
Kuwait is the LAND of boycotting.
who’s boycotting what now?
lol .. +1
I think the last time the country made good news was during the Gulf war in 1990… lol, they could’ve atleast changed the colors.
qawiya!
OH SNAP.
It’s an homage 😛
It looks like they aren’t creative enough to design
a look for the uniform , it’s a shame though.
The era of imitating…

some really funny ones. Make sure you select the option “ALL” under Discussion Threads
” Meanwhile, the Wizards are absolutely loving the fact that they’re being mentioned in a conversation containing the words ‘Middle’ and ‘East’. ”
lolol
Some better ones:
– It could be worse. The Somalian team plays in discarded Miami Heat 2011 NBA Champions t-shirts.
– Looks like the team in the background stole their uniforms from an American prison. (referring to this picture https://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/11/2012/01/adfbfdac2861d0ca8f3e42041cd76c0a.jpg)
– This was a nice gesture, but the Kuwaitis were totally outclassed when Team Iraq showed up in their vintage Olajuwon shirts.
– And if basketball doesn’t work out, they already have the vest to work as a greeter at the Kuwait City Wal-Mart.
– Sort of perfect because the Wizards are shooting like the Kuwaiti National Guard this season.
– Al Kuwait > Ron Mexico
– Still not as bad as Jordan donning a Wizards jersey.
Epic @ “Olajuwon shirts”
lol those are friggin’ hilarious
“Sort of perfect because the Wizards are shooting like the Kuwaiti National Guard this season.”
Shame
They could’ve at least changed the colors.. what a shame indeed 🙁
I know how we can settle this.
Kuwait team VS Washington Wizards!
Winner keeps the uniform!
lol.. just curious, how does the average height of Kuwait’s Basketball team fair against Wizards..
The pathetic wizards should worry about how many games they won this year … They’re 1-8 so far
They should of at least changed the blue to the green to match the Kuwait flag colors.
