    Since you're posting away-colors, the Lakers were purple. Nevertheless, I completely agree. We need Rocket Red!

    Totally agree about needing red to win championships. It works so well for the Hawks and Clippers...

    Psychologically speaking, blue represents calmness, red represents intensity. That, and our uniforms just suck. We need red unis, dammit!

    Those red jerseys kick so much @$$. I think they are even as good the old retro ones.

    I'd like a pink uniform with green polka-dots and purple horizontal stripes.

    "It seemed tough, but with guidance from Steve Francis, I learned my true destiny. That destiny is to play for the Houston Rockets, to bring them back to championship glory. One big man is all they need, and I believe I can fill that void. Thanks to the loyal fans in Sacramento, but Houston, Texas is where I belong."

    i have come to terms with our uniforms. i hated them at first, but there is a certain novelty with having the ugliest uniforms in the league. we are unique in our ugliness. when we come to town its like 'its that team with the ugly uniforms' that means something. it makes us special. i like them.

    Anything but those jailbird stripes and that Cartoon Network grimacing rocket logo. We might as well put Clutch's face on the back of the jersey showing every team we mean teddy jam business.

    Do the NBA rules specifically say that you must wear a white or yellow uniform at home? I noticed that the Pacers can wear their yellow jerseys on the road as long as they're not playing the Lakers. If there's no rule against it, the Rockets could wear red jerseys at home as long as they weren't playing a team that wore red (which are pretty scarce right now). It seems odd to spend money on alternate road jerseys, which no fans will ever see in person very often, but this is the only way to have an extra jersey in leagues where white is required at home.

    red is scarce?

    atlanta hawks- away red
    la clippers-away red
    sonics-sometimes away red
    heat-sometimes away red
    chicago-away red
    detroit pistons-sometimes away red

    alot of them only wear red occastionally, but i would hardly refer to the color red as scarce in the nba.

    id go with grey. i can only think of the nets.
