    I think if you got rid of the rocket, change the font to something more classic, and rotated the thing to make it more readable you'd have a pretty solid logo.

    I like the simplicity of the uniforms.

    I don't usually respond to these hypothetical uniform threads, but that's great work. Unis look great, the home court looks AWESOME.

    For the logo, center Houston on the top and Rockets on the bottom and have the actual rocket going up instead of sideways (jokes not withstanding) and I'd be down with everything.

    Assuming we couldn't just go back to the championship unis, that is....

    Repped for the good work.

    I like them! Maybe have an alternate that's blk/red/yellow....it would look mean.

    Dream2franchise, you really need to have more confidence with this stuff. Some people will always dislike your work, but you've pretty much received an 85% approval rating around here. I dont want to sound like a jerk, but the work is very good, stop acting like you're presenting elementary work. Embrace the fact that it's good and keep working at it.

    For everyone else, telling him to send it to the FO office won't do jack. They can just shove it aside, act like it never happened, and no one will remember about this. The last time Dream2Franchise posted his work, many droooled over it and then only 17 or so people "liked" it on FB. I believe it's still under 50 likes right now. If you want it to happen, make a BIG DEAL about it, so that the team has to address it. I know people are busy, but at least like the freakin' page!!

    I love the uniforms, but I would just go back to the classic championship logo along with these unis. This logo with the Rocket is not really working IMO, better just with the yellow basketball and black rockets text.

    I'm for anything that brings back red n' yella.

    Even our alternate unis would be a step forward.

    Although I had the stupid R logo we have.

    The thing I love about the championship unis is the font.

    Please bring that back.

    Would the OP mind doing a version using a darker red and a darker gold?

    I love the uni's and logo. I agree with the comments with regards to the direction of the rocket, though... otherwise think it's great.

    I, too would love to see what your alternate's would look like with this scheme.

    EDIT: maybe you already posted this, but your blog is great, too. I like how you go through the various designs you were thinking about.

    Honestly, I like most of them. Surprising, the one with simply the R in the middle might be my favorite.

    this is pointless guys. LES ALEXANDER OPENLY HATED THE YELLOW AND RED COMBINATION. even at one point, he stated "those don't look like a professional team colors" and highly favored with the navy blue colors till yao came along.

    Great effort.

    But for me, I am NOT a fan of the Ketchup and Mustard. (and it means ZERO to me that we happened to win a championship in those unis.)

    Our current Red/White/Grey scheme right now I think looks great. Would love Black 3rd unis

    Just awesome work. Do you have a way of connecting these with the Rockets Front office?
