Horrible NBA "style" and a fun quiz to boot!

From MentalFloss, a quiz about previous NBA drafts and who wore what. I thought SF might get a kick out of it.

Here is the quiz.


Enjoy!

So I had a dismal score, the same as random chance, but I pride myself on ignoring the hideous costumes worn on draft day.

This does bring up an interesting question. If you're 7' tall, is it OK to wear an 8-button suit, since 8 buttons really are required balance the length of your torso and legs?

6 out of 12. The 4th pict with David Stern sporting the 'stache is a classic.

Hard quiz.

From that angle, Shaq's double-breasted suit looks decent, unlike the other 11. It seems to fit better (not as somehow oversized) than his more recent suits.

It is interesting how little David Stern's look changes, and it's time for him to learn to dress better. Maybe if he did, draft picks would dress more tastefully, though in the past few years they have done better.
