    Had a long conversation with a buddy about our current jerseys and how horrible they are. Those photoshopped alternatives look great.

    BTW, from what I remember reading/hearing, the NBA did not allow us to have "Houston" on front of the jersey nor did they allow us to have a black alternate jersey.

    I just did, and I think if everyone does the same thing, the right people will at least get a chance to take a look at Colovelo's modifications.

    I think the black jersey is a bit much right now though, they just spent money on new alternates (that most like) last season. Don't see them tossing that out after one season.

    The point is to modify the uniforms the team regularly wears, that are a complete eye sore.

    EVERYONE FORWARD COLO'S HOME AND AWAY PICS TO THE ROCKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LET'S GET THIS DONE!

    My thoughts exactly, I love the color black, but it would be a backwards move for the Rockets given how many teams rock, black and red colors.

    Why can't we have "Houston" written? Cleveland is written on the Cav's jersey's, New York is written on the Knicks.

    Is it because because we can't have "Rockets" on the home jersey AND "Houston" on the away jersey? If that's the case, what's the reasoning??

    Not sure what the reasoning was but I do know we originally submitted our current jersey with "Houston" on the front but it got denied. Our black alternate jersey got denied because the NBA said there were too many black alternates already.

    then why they have this jersey, if they are not allowed to get a "Houston" jersey.

    Those are the best Rocket jerseys I've ever seen. I would buy a home and away if it were possible.

    Please email the pics to the Rockets link provided at the bottom of page 4 of this thread. More people email, better the chances they become a reality.

    The Rockets jerseys are terrible. It seems there playing off Yao and China which is too gimmicky. The fonts and overall layout looks like something you would find on the side of a rice box at a Chinese takeout.

    Nothing against China...but the current jerseys are the front runner for ugliest in the NBA.

    I would buy that Red and Grey...nice!
