The Atlanta Hawks are going to unveil their new uniforms on Wednesday, and the Atlanta-Journal Constitution's Chris Vivlamore has a sneak peak. Initial reaction: it looks like someone took a highlighter to a regular Hawks jersey.

I am not one to freak out about uniform changes. Something simple, like what the Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks recently did, is usually effective. Not sure why the Hawks needed to overthink this. I'm really confused -- why are they so bright? Are there lighting problems at Philips Arena? Also, what's going on with the A on the ATL jersey?

The home ones are the grossest of the bunch if you ask me, and that is quite unfortunate. When the Hawks are at their best, they're one of the most fun teams to watch on League Pass. We don't need to see this when we're looking for beautiful basketball. Ever since the regular season ended, this team has been so very disappointing.
