    I know there have been hundreds of new threads about the new uniforms and I am getting a little sick of them myself. However, I called 610 the other night and talked to them about the new unifroms and they expected them to be released when the comets season is over because according to them are getting new ones also. Nothing big there but I dont even follow comets so I have no idea when their seasons over. Second of all, on the rockets homepage through nba.com, they took of the new uniform section. That makes me belive they have the design already because that was a fan feedback forum type deal but I noticed it was missing today. Just some little news to entertain the dreadful offseason. I am sure I will get "bashed" for this thread but I did not read this news on the other threads and watned to let those who were interested know.

    Lock this thread now! ;) Just kidding, man.

    Since the Comets season is pretty much over anyway, can't they just release the new uni's now?

    Were not going to bash you if you report news, which you did.

    At least we know a time frame now of when to expect them.....

    Final regular season game is:
    August 25th, Monday @ Los Angeles 8:00 pm

    -Comets are third in the Western Conference at this point...

    PS: I think the WNBA season got started alot later because of that Player Salary squabble they had that almost cost them the entire season. Too bad, we could have had the Rox uniforms alot sooner!

    If they don't release it until the end of the comets season, then we will have to wait until a month before the NBA starts?? Why does our franchise have to be sooooo slow. I can't take it anymore. These jerseys, if we ever get them, better be good to make up for this incredibly long wait. I'm not sure if i speak for everyone, but i think most fans have been waiting since '97 to get new unis.

    Heh heh... I know how you feel. But it's kind of exciting too. We have a new coach, a new uni, a new arena and a better Yao next year to look forward too.

    Lots of stuff!

    In reality, I don't want the unis to be "ground breaking" or "flashy." I want them to be sharp looking. Like the Comets, Astros and Texans. They are respectable, unique and good looking. NOT TACKY!

    :D

    I wonder if they will go with the crimson red we've heard about.

    I assume they will wait until AFTER the playoffs are over. That pushes the Uniform unveiling until SEPTEMBER!? Horrible!

    This needs to be done July/August. Not wait until just ONE month from training camps to show off the new unis? Don't they need time to print up an NBA Floor for the Rockets? Or merchandise? Is one month enough time? I don't know.

    Who at 610? Those guys don't know any more than we do depending on the person.

    That seems awfully late in the game anyway.

    I agree Jeff just reporting what they said and they could easily be wrong, it was late friday night and to be honest I forgot who was hosting then. They hit on the point we all said that since we dont have a high draft pick we wont show it off then. Sorry if the news isnt to concrete but its something.

    Oh, no. It's cool you gave it a shot. Anything is something at this point. :)

    It was probably Matt Jackson and I can pretty much guarantee you he doesn't know. Most likely speculation on his part.
