Building An NBA Jam Roster Full Of Bros And Hipsters At Lollapalooza

by Andrew Sharp

↵

Deadspin's already done the yeoman's work exposing hipsters/hoopsters and their love affair with obscure 90s jerseys, but that doesn't mean it's gone away. The love affair's more intense than ever, with one caveat -- I'm not sure we're talking about hipsters anymore. Like Chris Webber up there; his arms are way too flabby to be a hipster. And look at the way he's smoking. And the hat. That right there is a full-on Natty Ice swilling, frat-obsessed BRO. So what do you think: Are awesomely old school NBA jerseys bigger among bros or hipsters?
