Forget Stockton, Kevin Johnson wore the shortest-shorts ever!

[El Kabong]

Okay, there might be such a thing as shorts that are too short, but there are definitely also shorts that are way too big. I remember that I once saw a pic of TJ Ford wearing ridiculously oversized shorts in a SLAM mag, so I went through my magazines quickly, and I found it, and scanned it:

IMO, that looks just as stupid as any short shorts from the 70s and 80s you can find.

Ha, it looks like he forgot his shorts and the only person he could borrow a pair off of was Gadz or Bogut.

Downtown Freddy the Laker killer, that you know what beat the Lakers more times at home and the Fabulous Forum than any other player ever did. he made more clutch shots from Downtown and the corners, sheeeeeeeeeeeet, killed us every freekin' time, I despised him but gots to admit he was a helluva shooter, was shooting three's before there were three's in the NBA, I wanted him to defect to the ABA

It looks like it was a game against the Bullets based on the uni I see in the background-can't make out the player tho, maybe I'll cut n paste into my pictures and view with the enlarger feature

Great card, thanx for sharing

thanks for the freddie props-- most here at ish never saw him

the bullets in the background of the card look like greg ballard on the right and in the left is--- mitch kupchak!!

"Guys, where are my shorts? You know I was doing that photo shoot today."

i still say that long shorts partially makes players today look way more athletic than the players of yesterday.

put today's clothes on some 80s players. their movements and their bodies woul look normal on video to you.

Yeah, I agree with this. But at the same time, I like the long shorts a lot more. Not the VERY long ones, but the ones down to the knees. The short shorts are just... too short. They don't look good.

I'm going to use 2 Bucks as an example here. Get it - 2 Bucks? But here, these are good:

Rodman used to wear ridiculously short shorts when he was on the Pistons. I remember seeing a clip where you could actually see the back straps of his jock.

I dont see nothing wrong with them shorts IMO If you feel comfortable in Short Shorts, long Baggy Shorts, or regular sized shorts it shouldn't matter and shouldn't make people change their opinions on players saying, " oh there just thug wannabes" It's sterotypes like this that makes this world a F'd up place.

At least if you have the short shorts, you can get away with wearing the long tube socks

True.

^Forcing the Lakers to wear those shorts was the worst idea EVER.

[Myth]

That pic of TJ Ford is more ridiculous than any of the other short shorts pics IMO. He looks like a child in an adult's uniform.

[resin_baller]

Those shorts are so long and baggy that if some guy came out wearing a skirt in team colors instead, it would take at least a quarter before anyone noticed the difference.
