    Is this about the Rockets, or a comment on our present federal government?

    I kind of like it.

    Fits in with the Chinese fans too.

    "we are red nation" doesn't quite have the ring to it that "get red" does.

    in fact, "get red" was the only slogan that i actually found myself saying / cheering.

    this is almost as brilliant of an idea as putting a dildo against the backdrop of pin-striped pajamas and calling it a basketball uniform.

    All we need now is for Shepard Fairey to do a Chairman Yao print.

    Not a fan of that one.

    "Red Nation" just sounds awkward.

    Hahah, can you actually believe that after hundreds or even thousands of hours of thinking, plotting, gathering, discussing they come up with a BS slogan like this ? I'm sorry but it sounds awful, it's grammatically incorrect, it looks awful, has nothing to do with the Rockets and they better go back to the old days when they didn't need some freaking slogans to get people hyped for a new season, get ticket sales or whatever. The game has changed and so have the names and it's a damn shame

    The alternate uniforms better look good

    Red Nation kinda reminds me of The Boston Redsox.

    With Yao out, we gotta do whatever we can to keep the Chinese fans on board.
