I would like to enter some pics into the  " Team Threads both Home and Away and the Rookie Threads both home and Away" does anyone know what is correct: HOME is WHITE,  ROAD is AWAY or vice versa as it is unclear by looking at the entered pics.........Thanks

In most sports the AWAY uniforms are usually the "white" version.

White is HOME for the NBA...except the Lakers who wear yellow at home except on Sundays. That may change this year as the NBA has decided not to regulate what teams wear where anymore. They can now have 4 jersey designs and wear them whenever they choose. 

The two Richard Jefferson image's should be switched.

My opinion of this is that it is really silly and is going to make things confusing.  I predict they scrap it after this season.  Traditionally, the city name is on the away uniforms as it shows the city that you came from and represent.  Now teams are going to showing up at away games with just their team name.  Granted, any fan knows what city the team is, but it's just a symbolic thing I think they are ruining.  

Also, how many jerseys are the teams going to need to bring with them now to make sure the chosen jersey contrasts with the home team?

Edit:  Although some teams like the Spurs just have their team name on their away blacks-  but while I respect the organization and have always liked Tim Duncan, the Spurs have always been a pain in my ass as a Suns fan so of course they would do this to spite my future TCDB post.  Those damn Lakers too now that I think of it! lol

It already happened one time. When the Knicks had their bright orange Alternates, the Hawks wore their standard road red. It was a little bit of a challenge because the colors were so close, but it was different enough to be noticable and didn't cause any extra turnovers. (I saw that game)
 

Ever since then the teams actually call ahead to find out what jerseys will be worn, and last year it went so far as the NBA publishing a list of which special jerseys would be worn which night. I don't know if they did that this year, but they did say when some of the new designs would debut, so they probably did and I just havn't seen it yet.

Thanks to all for responding ....just as I thought  AND  yes a big thank you for not mentioning that yes ROAD is  AWAY.  All 4 of my fantasy teams went down in FLAMES.........I was sad.
