    they should have darkened the yellow...like an anodized gold color...

    no one outside of houston will buy/wear these.

    FAIL.

    the rockets shoulda listened to the fans.

    a black uni with any combo of minimal yellow/red/silver trim woulda been better.

    hey i'll still buy them and wear them... i mean if i wore those damn space pajamas - i will wear these.

    but i am disappointed.

    So, they must of had a lot of Chinese influence with these jerseys.
    They suck, the best ones were during the championship years and the ones they have now look better than these.

    I can't believe someone got paid to design this. I design tees on the side and I could've done better. I know it.

    Yellow is a nice border color, that's it. Yellow is not a color that you put all over the sides of the jersey.

    I thought it was supposed to be "championship years"?

    I think the yellow looks like too much when the jersey is laid on the ground, but on a player i think it will balance out, and although i dont particularly like the font i love how "houston" is slanted upward like the championship unis!!

    last thing to do is, have all players switch to Chinese citizenship and become the Chinese National team after trading for Yi and Sun.

    OK, now that I've looked at it a few times...

    I still don't like it.

    (And the point is not that Dream wore the championship jerseys... it's that the championship jerseys represent continuity and history and pride and clutchness and for whatever their flaws, they were recognizable as belonging to the Houston Rockets.)
