I wish teams would stick with the traditional jerseys and courts. In football and now bball its getting ridiculous how flashy the sports are becoming. The Nike Combat jerseys are ruining the look of jerseys that have been around for many years. This is sports, not a fashion statement.

Oregon is keeping to its tradition. Some schools keep old school jersey's and court designs/field logos the same for tradition. Their tradition is to be out there and unique. I like the court but it looks like three pointers will have to be reviewed a lot near the top of the key because the white 3pt line mixes with the white on the floor up there.

It looks cool but they are going to have issues with the 3 point line being white at the top IMO. If they switch the mens and womens lines, it will be fine though.

Maybe that's why they did it. Oregon players will be comfortable with it, but other teams will have to stop and look, thus throwing their concentration on the shot itself. There is a court in the SEC (Ole Miss I think) that has a thick blue line at the fowl line with a thin white line just above it. There have been several violations by visiting shooters because they think the fowl line is the thick blue line when it's really the thin white one. Only a difference of about an inch or 2, but it makes a big difference. When you have to think more about your foot placement, you're shooting concentration is altered.

I like it. Should have added a silhouette of Sasquatch somewhere in those trees.

Looks like Tinker the designer has been nailing some ganja for inspiration... lol. Looks like it could be tough to discern the 3 point line in the heat of the battle?

Looks terrible. And if it confuses the opponents, won't it confuse the home team?

Looks like somebody dumped a huge can of paint on the court. I don't understand the forest concept either... but it's Oregon, they don't always do things that make sense. (the tread marks on the shoulders and knees of the football unis)

Oregon is doing a great job of creating a unique value proposition for their University. Their isn't enought talent in Oregon for them to compete year in and year out with the big boys, but with Nike, all the jerseys, the uptempo offense that players love (football and basketball) they can get players in there. The Oregon brand is strong right now.

Does the blue field confuse the opponent?

According to a few opponents, yes it has thrown them.
