I mentioned on here before if anyone has serious connections with the Rockets we could do an online vote to show the Rockets how many fans want the old uniforms back because they are clean and classic and we won our championships in them.
the number is not that big of a deal. vince carter signed with orlando, modeled the jersey but had no number.
True, but his normal number wasn't available at that time. Number 3 is, and that was kind of the number we all thought he would pick, so we're all kind of curious now.
As I mentioned in an earlier post VC has always wore 15 and when he signed Hedo was still part of the Magic and Hedo wore #15. Thats why if you saw almost a day after Hedo opted out the Magic had #15 VC jerseys for sale
It's funny you say that. http://www.rocketsshop.com/rockets/dept.asp?s_id=0&dept_id=3056&page=1 There are 3 jerseys on clearance. #3 Steve Francis(1 jersey) #96 Ron Artest(5 jerseys) #1 Tracy McGrady(11 jerseys) There are no other players on clearance. No Yao, No Scola, No Battier, No Brooks, No Landry, No Barry. Two of the 3 players are already gone. I bet Ariza has #1.
i wouldnt read too much into McGrady's jerseys being on clearance it has been like that for quite some time. With his injury and of course the controversy surrounding it a lot of fans turned their back on Tracy and the rockets probably did not account for that when they ordered jerseys at the beginning of the year. I am sure Yao and tracy both have the highest selling jerseys so if the rockets ordered like 10k jerseys and only sold 3k of them they are going to have a firesale.
