    Nice! Correct me if I'm wrong but seems like it's been awhile since a billboard showed all of the Rockets and not either the starting 5 or "big 3".

    Probably not since the faster, younger, fearless days, or whatever it was.

    Probably the first time in awhile they're thinking they won't have to scrap it and start over in a few weeks. :grin:

    That 2016-17 billboard with KD on it will be badass

    That's awesome!! Indeed, in previous years it seemed to be about 1 player, duos, trios or whatever but never the full squad. The closest was probably in 08-09 with T-mac, Artest, Yao, Rafer, Scola & Battier if I remember correctly.

    I like that they put DMo next to Dwight. Dude will play a pivotal role this year

    Would've been awesome with a huge McHale in the middle behind Dwight & James.

    I like it, but James should be in front.

    Agreed. But there are pretty much 14 guaranteed players on the team so it's 7/7 makes more sense than say, 6/Harden/7.


    The Ends: Thornton / Harrell
    5th: Dekker / McDaniels
    4th: Terry / Capela
    3rd: Brew / TJones
    2nd: DMo / PBev
    1st: Lawson / Ariza
    Middle: Harden / Dwight

    I love it. How about parking one of those somewhere in Southwest Austin, Les?

    Remember when they would only put Yao/T-Mac, Dwight/Harden and maybe some players. Team so deep, they just said F*** it, put in errbody.

    Would love this but Austin seems to be a Cowboys/Spurs/Mavericks town. Ugh.

    I like this idea. It would be cool if he had his arms over there shoulders and was leaning over between them with a serious look on his face. That would be sick!

    Would look similar with Dwight and his children :grin:

    Nice looking sign, though. Should be a great year!
