Sean is feeling exceptionally old today and in full “get off my lawn mode.” What’s the cause of his ire? TikToks and spin classes, naturally, but the main culprit is Photoshopped jerseys.
A player gets drafted or sent to a new team but hasn’t played a game yet? Let’s make an image of them wearing the latest jersey. A player is rumored to be traded? Let’s see how they look in the uniforms of every team in the league. The latest and greatest players to experience this are Damian Lillard and Jrue Holiday (to the Bucks and Celtics, respectively), but you’ll find this trend across all players and sports.
What if we took this Photoshopping to new heights and put Dame Time in a heavy metal shirt or a Halloween costume? Why limit it to the NBA? Shout out to the Jenkins and Jonez podcast, who have delivered lots of good stuff around the Lillard trade and plenty of other hoops news.
