    I don't see the big deal about any of Miami's jerseys.

    They're different, so maybe that helps.

    Purple stuff

    Now all they have to do is play the Hornets in their turquoise jersey.

    It totally reps their city correctly with the colors and font

    you’ve been brainwashed by the Chinese rockets jersey to remember what the point of the jerseys are

    I've never liked the current Rockets font. Stop distorting reality.

    Man their 'Vice City' jerseys are great. I've always been a fan of Miami in general ever since GTA Vice City came out when I was 9 years old. The colors scheme, the sun, palm trees etc. Helas, I live in Canada and have a criminal record now, can't even go to the U.S

    I hate Les Alexander
    Ever since he took ownership , people know nothing about Houston . I bet they can’t find it on a map of Texas.
    All these other cities and their owners show so
    much pride in the towns @Reeko

    Cuban and the owner in San Antonio are much better than him . They never sold out their communities and they never sold period. They are rich already it’s not about making a billion or two off your team.
    You are suppose to be super rich anyways to own a team

    It boils my blood when non Houston area rockets fans think Les was some great owner

    Les also helped prevent NHL coming to Houston.

    I'm no hockey fan, but still recognize it's value for a city.

    Thanks for bringing this up
    Educate them for what Houston had to deal with

    Alexander had no interest in doing so. He also made clear over the years that he had no interest in sharing Toyota Center with another tenant — thus the AHL Aeros departed for Iowa despite solid fan support (the saga of the Aeros’ departure can be read here).

    Miami Vice actually drove that scheme. The show itself literally painted those buildings the pastels and neons that have become the identity of the city. I went on an Art Deco tour in Miami about six months ago and was shocked to learn that. Interestingly, it also played a major role in saving those art deco buidings. Starting in the 1970's they began tearing them down. Something like half of them were torn down before they were able to designate them historic and stop that process before they were all gone.
