    Aesthetics.....it is not bad (all things considered). Looks best on the Red uniform because of the blend. Unfortunately looks worst on the Black uniform. Too bad they couldn't have gotten some slightly rounded corners on that patch to smooth out the transition.

    I don't get this company/product. Their Mission Statement:

    To build an unparalleled network of vital communications, health and security services and make them as broadly accessible as possible.

    Eeesh. What an eyesore. I'll probably forget about it after awhile though.

    Only the Rockets can ruin the only nice jersey they have.

    It’s not for us to understand. It’s for Chinese fans to understand.

    There are probably 3X more Rockets fans in China than the entire US.

    Barcelona has a Saudi jeresy sponsor. Nobody gives a ****

    I'm actually relieved. I knew this was coming, and I don't think this is that bad.

    Fellas, we were all looking for the wrong ROKiT. It's easier to find when you remove "iT"

    lol why do I get a feeling they put all of their marketing dollars into this jersey sponsorship?

    I think Barca's sponsor was Rakuten. But even the Quatar airways is a world famous airline not a company that you can't even find their website.

    I HATED the idea of the NBA messing up with the aesthetics of the jersey with this low hanging fruit cash grab with the jersey sponsors.

    There was no way this was going to look good. It was going to be gross.

    BUT, at least what the Rockets have with these is not something as bad as the Nets "Infor" patch. There are some bad ones out there.

    Switched from Motorola to a Prime Co phone. - Lil Flip

    If the Rockets were Houston like Gerald Green, they would have went with Prime Co.
