    Ugh. Never show that monstrosity again. Worst logo ever. Reminds me of the Barkley pajama uniforms and Clutch the bear.

    I like the classic stuff. And bring back Turbo and the T-shirt cannon.

    We're now decades past those colors. In fact, the Rockets first came to Houston in what, 71. So 71-94 was the "original" colors. 95-19 has been something else. So just as much time away from the original as with it. And of course, as someone else noted, the SD Rockets were green and yellow.

    So what...

    Well, I've said this before, but I'd be in favor of more color change. There's too much red in the NBA anyway. And whether red and yellow, red and blue, red and white, green and yellow, red and black or whatever... none of it makes me think of a rocket.

    I'd be in favor of a complete rebrand that screams actual rockets, rocket take-off or space in some legit way ....

    I have no clue what this means. Sometimes when you go off on things like this you kind of just come across as a teenager. Pure... wtf? What grade is this, lol?

    If you meant Houston Rockets, you should have said HOUSTON. You didn't.

    Rudy T, Calvin Murphy, Elvin Hayes all played for the green and gold. You gonna tell them they weren't really Rockets? Good luck with that.

    You should fight outside the Toyota centre on the season opener. Smash his face in

    Here in The RGV all we got is shitty spurs gear. We have more Texans stuff than Rockets stuff. It's horrible.

    Too many non fans don't understand the significance of our color scheme. San Diego era doesn't matter.

    Les should never have changed anything. If you weren't around when we won the championships then your opinion doesn't matter. Not sorry if it hurts your feelings.
