They will have SWINGMAN jerseys available for sale on NBA.com. Not sure about Authentics though.

The 1st one to crack the pinata, his team gets opening possesion of the ball.

there won't be any authentics. none of these special jerseys are ever released in the authentic version. the bobcats had those jerseys earlier in the year with the racing checkers on the side, swingmans were for sale but no authentics. same with the saint patricks day jerseys.

Don't the Celtics, Knicks, Raptors and the Hornets have "Saint Patrick's Day" special jerseys they wear? Where is the uproar and "this is America" BS when it comes to an Irish-appreciation event?
Ignorant phucks!
How do the Celtics, Knicks, Raptors, and Hornets celebrate with the st paddys day jerseys? Are they green Jerseys or is all the beer in the buidling green? I havent seen it myself and was curious being an Irish guy.

Keep on eye out on eBay. A few of those rare authentics show up from time to time. I saw one of those Charlotte/NASCAR authentic jersey up for auction a while back.

yeah i wouldn't want one anyways for the prices they would be selling for.. if the nets were to have some special jerseys auctioned off i would look into it because of stro, but other than that it's too much money even though i collect authentic jerseys. i missed out on the swift europe live grizzlies jersey this summer, but i was able to pick up a game used vancouver jersey of his.

Re: Anyone else annoyed at "spanish" jerseys?
Maybe it's as a goodbye to the AZ illegals. There is a mass exodus in AZ of illegals because the economy is bad and AZ is one of several states that has started going after employers for hiring illegals. They say some trailer parks around the Phoenix area have been emptied by half or more since the beginning of the year. Mexico has made an official complaint to the United States saying it can't handle the returning traffic coming back into northern Mexico.

i'll tell you how.
because pollls continuously show that 3/4 of americans are becoming greatly vexed at the colonization of america at the hands of illegal mexican immigrants, of which there are over 10 million. nothing is being done because those at the top wish to keep services of illegal workers available. the overwhelming majority of americans want something to be done about it, and the people they elect who are supposed to act on the wishes of their constituents are just blatantly and boldly ignoring them.
america is turning into mexico and the reason for it is that our government is run by people who dont care where you from or whether or not your legal, they care whether you are willing to circumvent wage laws and work dirt cheap for them.
greed is destroying the country.

Barbosa can't even speak spanish.

I think it was tastefully done and pretty cool.
I disagree because we don't have an illegal immigration problem with the Irish, they're not breaking the law and coming here to take AMERICAN jobs. Try to spin it however you like you liberal queer.
