The trend where some city edition jerseys are in any and all colors but the team’s actual colors has got to stop. Jerseys are meant to be used to display a team’s brand so as to make them easily identifiable. Having them wear jerseys that are entirely non-team colors - or worse another team’s colors - runs completely counter to that. If you’re at a bar or restaurant and quickly glance at the TV with a game on that has the Kings playing in these jerseys, you wouldn’t be able to easily and quickly pick up that it was the Kings playing, in fact you’d probably think it was the Sixers.

While this is true in most cases. These jerseys are playing homage to the old school kings/royals jerseys and have similar color and design.
The point of them is to be related to the city and not necessarily the team.
