UUOTD-Turn Back The Clock Edition, Again


We remain on the time machine, back to the 1970's, and we stay on the shuttle between San Diego and Cleveland.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have not had many good uniforms in their history. It can be argued that their current unis are the best they have ever worn.

In 1974, the Cavs left the old Cleveland Arena for the Coliseum in Richfield, halfway to Akron. When they moved, they also got new uniforms. They kept the colors of wine and gold, and began wearing these monstrosities. The colors are bad. The trim is hideous.

Cavalier legend Austin Carr is shown wearing the road version of these rags.

These are some of the worst uniforms in the history of the NBA. The NBA has had plenty of bad uniforms, but these are up there with the worst.

Poor CLE. You never give it respect.

It is a mere coincidence that the Indians and Cavs both wore awful uniforms at the same time.
