Twitter roasts Warriors over giveaway shirts for 'We Believe' night
The Golden State Warriors' playoff T-shirt designers are giving their Toronto Raptors counterparts a run for their money.
Fans attending Game 1 of Warriors-Jazz at Oracle Arena on Tuesday will get these shirts:

Many folks took to Twitter to express their displeasure with the design, which seems to reference the 1979 cult favorite "The Warriors" but missed the mark aesthetically.
"No playoff shirts will be worse than the Warriors 'Defend Our Ground.'"

It's worth noting that the Dubs are celebrating the 2007 "We Believe" squad in Game 1 and selling these commemorative Tees:

We believe fans would've been happier getting those shirts (or, for the sake of profit, something similar).
