    I remember reading about Curry.. and Tyson Chandler... telling each other they don't want to get drafted by the Rockets cause of our ugly uniforms.. right before the draft.. they interviewed them in their hotel rooms...

    Nice. Although I think the look could be more distinct if the number was in the corner with the logo in the middle on the front of the jersey. I didn't mind that at all.

    But that is MUCH cleaner. Amazing what some thought and tinkering around can do.

    The McDonald's jerseys are OK, but bleh. Whoever the Rockets' design team is needs to go.

    Curry still isn't relevant. Chandler didn't become relevant until five, six years later. So I would say the Rockets didn't exactly miss out there.

    There needs to be a toilet underneath him... for tanking purposes.

    Take off the pinstripes and dildo logo. Then replace the blue with light blue.

    Looks like ironic hipsters have invaded the rockets FO.

    For the record, the late 90s pistons gear/logo was way worse than this.

    Just a heads up ...

    I was told today the Rockets will not be wearing their blue pinstriped uniforms (1995-96 to 2002-03) as throwbacks next season. Maybe it was being kicked around as an idea (don't know), but it's not happening.

    When can we get away from our current jerseys? The cut is ugly and overall it just doesn't do much for me.

    The person who raised this idea is what should be kicked around.

    then throw them in the trash, wear Rocket Red through eternity and slap yourself across the face for ever changing uniforms/logo/colors on the heels of winning back to back titles.

    Great news! Clutch do you know if it's true we cannot decide to wear the other 3 throwback uni's anymore since we already worn those in different periods ?

    I like that. It reminds me of the Texans. Now just have the Astros use a red, white, and blue color scheme, and we could have a Pittsburgh thing going on with our sports franchises.
