    When Jordan's bulls did Sunday pinstripe alternates it was majestic. But I agree, its played out now. Throw backs I prefer much more to alternates.

    I would like to see throwbacks too Ziggy. Those are awesome.

    Rockets don't need alternates.

    I'd like to see them break out the old San Diego jerseys at least once.

    We had the 'Los Rockets' jersey for one night, and that is the closest thing we got to alternates.

    idk about anyone else but dont you get sick of red???

    i love the team and everything about the rockets but i would love to see the pajama white and blue and blue and white jerseys again sometime...it would remind me of when i grew up watching the team the first time and the good ol stevie franchise days although we did not win as much...the 90s were good to us even if your not talking basketball

    you're first sentence was questionable enough, the rest is :eek: .... i guess this is the result of not being old enough to witness the championship years....just wait until Tinman gets here!

    I agree. I like the fact that we dont have four or five different jerseys. I also happen to like our current jerseys. I agree with Brooksball, I wish the cut was better. As for the colors and design, I give it a thumbs up.

    I agree on the cut, but dont like the shiny material either. They should at least tweak the current uni.

    Seriously? Are we that pathetic that we dont even deserve an alternate or throwback?

    Thats sad.

    How sweet would a black alternate jersey look?

    teams wear alternate jerseys to market them to customers. noone wants to buy an alternate yao jersey.

    We did last year, but I'm pretty sure we didn't the year before.

    Wasn't there a thread a few months back, about someone confirming that there would be :dark but not black" alternatives released next season.

    It has nothing to do with how we play, it's just about star power. Notice how the spurs don't have alternates or throwbacks, etc, not any i've seen this year anyway. They don't sell a lot either because as good as their big 3 are, they don't appeal much to the market outside San Antonio, they also dont appeal much to the younger crowd who buys jerseys for fashion instead of team support.
