" Yep. The Golden State Warriors will become the first NBA team to ever don sleeves later this month when they gear up for their February 22nd game against San Antonio. And while we love the retro look and marvel at how these uniforms could possibly be 26-percent lighter than the waify ones players now wear, it seems like skin-tight sleeves would limit shoulder movement and hurt a player&amp;#039;s ability to fire off quick shots, right? Apparently not. Designers at Adidas worked hand-in-hand with the Warriors to dial in the performance, and guys like Harrison Barnes are calling the new design a &amp;quot;trendsetter.&amp;quot; Still, the Little League baseball look, lack of matching pinstripes, and different shades of yellow suggest this isn&amp;#039;t so much an aesthetic choice as it is a business decision by Adidas, no doubt aiming to expand profits with new jerseys while simultaneously helping to cover up the unsightly shoulders of the hairy sports fans who wear them to games. And for that last bit, we thank them. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
