Webfooter Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 They couldn't do better than that? It looks like something they got out of a generic uniform catalog. Absolutely no character or inspiration once so ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben in LA Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The throwbacks are the best and I hope they bring the white version back as well. Hell, mix in a yellow version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopard88 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I don't remember the wordmark being so severely slanted on the Olajuwon era jerseys. Maybe that's because the Rockets weren't sure what they were shooting for back then.

VDizzle12 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The Rockets improved slightly I guess. I will never understand why teams put a stroke around the wordmark, but not the numbers. They should be consistent because they are right next to each other. My biggest pet peeve on basketball jerseys. The main 3 jerseys look a bit bland and remind me of the old Adidas replicas. Just put a thick stripe down the side and call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepis21 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 All they had to do is follow the damn train add white jersey to earned and statement. These uniforms are nothing special at all. Look like generic cheap set from aliexpress. Try again Rockets. Try again. Throwback look the best, but of course similar to Hornets nike can't do a proper font for NOB, which sucks! Why nike? Is that hard to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is a NBA thing, not a Nike thing. Even when they wore adidas I think it was a rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcon_731 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 how does their global logo have more grey then red, but the unis are mostly red? instead of home whites why not light greys as home? most teams are reluctant on wearing whites anyway. then theres no uniqueness to the font just bold. they had the opportunity to have something pretty neat but dropped it. the lowest common denominator is the worst.

Because the association (or is it icon?) has to be white, even the lakers can’t get away from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, just a thought. like how Milwaukee could have a pale cream home uni would look pretty clean. Just feels like a lost opportunity.

bcon_731 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The set would look interesting, if they avoided black altogether. Just off the overuse from everyone else in the league. And since theyre leaning on the space motif for their unveiling. How about different shades of red and greys, like the away set could be dark red with that bright red and some dark grey trim.

You can somewhat tell from the background that is a mashup of pictures. However, I think the Hakeem part is legit.

El Diablo Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 How many people have already said they wanted more yellow? I would have liked more yellow. Why did they need to add black? It seems to me red, yellow, and grey would have been a pretty solid color scheme. These aren't great, but they're not terrible. I'm just wondering why, when the Raptors winning the championship just a week ago, now we have another red and black team. It feels a little bit like bad timing.
