    Ok so it's been over a year now with the new court design, and I was wondering which one you guys think looks better between the newer one with more wood and the previous one with more red paint. Personally, I like the older one better while watching it on TV. This probably has nothing to do with the bad shooting at home, and that's not why I made this thread anyway.

    Old court by a mile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    The new courthas wat yoo less coloer for me , they should at lest do all the sidelines red , or the free throw line circle red.


    The best design imo will be the old design without the grey part.

    Neither. Both look pretty bad.

    The new one.

    Old one has too much red, this one is finer.

    Old one, would have fit the "get red" slogan nicely.

    neither, the old one looks too busy and the new one too plain...plus i never got courts that have blank "paint" areas. I think they have to be colored, it its the paint afterall.

    I think it the new one had a red paint area, red baselines behind the basket only, and if the center logo was the whole "houston rockets R" and the logos near each 3 point line were just the R, that would be perfect.

    Old one. I hate the new pencil style that so many are going with.

    I like the lighter colored wood of the new court, but miss the red of the old.

    Screw them all. We need a court like the wolves. That's the 2nd best court I've ever seen after the 90's Hornets.

    Both are terrible in my opinion. I you just had a R by the 3 point lines, colored the paint and colored it red behind the basket then I think it would be nice.

    The 2-tone thing though it really getting played out. I think we need a new logo all together anyway.

    The red paint of the old ones seems like a WNBA court for some reason
