    I'll go for an alternate road jerseys like many other team have.
    I think the same jersey but in black, with numbers and names in red, similar to the Heat and the bulls.

    According to this April 9th article, Steve Francis' jersey was the 8th most popular in the league, and Yao Ming's was 18th. (Note that, the outlets measured are the NBA website and the NBA store in New York, so the list is skewed toward New Yorker consumers.) And, I learned from here, Steve Francis was not even in the top-25 the year before (with the old uniforms), so it isn't his immense popularity overcoming a bad design. So, while you may think the uniforms are ugly, the buying public obviously does not agree with you.

    With you on that, I bought my authentic Yao jersey last year and I like it, I just wish the numbers on the front were the same size as the ones on the back.

    Besides that I have not problem with these unis.

    Juan Valdez....

    Like I said in my previous post.....I'm suprised that SF was even in the top 10 in sales. But I do still think that the ROX jerseys stink. I think that we have an international looking jersey. I like the color....I have no problem with that...its the design and material. I'm glad all of you is posting your opinions but you don't have to get upset just because I'm posting mines.

    Let's make it multicolored with stripes and bigass lettering and have a "real" logo on it!

    Not only will it be recognizable, card companies like Topps and UD can cut em up and have every patch have 5 different colors!

    Don't be offended. I'm not objecting to your not liking the uniforms. But, you started saying you don't think anyone would or does like them, and that obviously is not the case. It's not your cup of tea, but the new unis have had enough popular success, it seems to me, that changing them wouldn't make economic sense and would not even be popular in fandom. So, I was trying to answer your original question as to whether we should change our jerseys: if you want to give the people what they want, I think you keep them the same (even if I personally think they are average).

    I definately haaaate the lettering on our jerseys, the shoulders are waaay too wide, and the collar could be a little different.. maybe something more similar to LA/Miami/Toronto/Detroit/Dallas Jersey style collar... I personaly would have loved to have a simple style like all the listed above... I hope we can adjust the jerseys soon. I would like to actually be able to buy one. The current ones look too much like WNBA jerseys. BLAH! I can never sport one of these.. NEVER!

    I say the Logo is Badass. The Colors are great. They just need to fix the jerseys. Make the Font bigger, put Houston on the road game jerseys, make numbers bigger, and add some black color in to it. The shorts are perfect though.

    They're the Rockets. They're wearing red again. I'm happy.

    Yes, we should keep the colors but update the logo. Or, go back to the classic red and yellow!

    I like the white ones. The red ones look somehow cheap too me.
    Please no silver jersey. A black 3rd jersey would be killer.

    This is going to come off like a Spur homer-Rocket hater (which I am :D), but these are your best jerseys yet.

    I hated the red and yellow. They are horrifically ugly colors together, and the way the capital letters and lower-case letters were mixed together was hideous.

    The 1996-2002 uni's were an upgrade, but they sucked too. These current jerseys are the best.
