Dear Uncle Tilman,

What are some things you would ask of the new Rockets owner? Would you like to see them stay the course? Make big changes?

One thing that I don't think is in the realm of possibility is moving the team, so leave that suggestion out, thank you!

What would you like to see the new owner address or do differently?

Change the jerseys please please please. The design and pure red and white scheme just feel like them pandering to the Chinese audience Yao was attracting, which is understandable but that era is over. Would love for them to go Black and Red as the primary colors for the team

Please don't invite Dominique Sachsa to any of your house parties. It is getting old. Also, don't look over Morey's shoulders too much. I agree about re-designing jerseys...add some yellow to it too.

Agreed the rockets jerseys are amongst the worst in the league. I much prefer the classic logo/color scheme.

I hadn't thought about the Red China connection but that is clearly the motivation behind it.

I've noticed that rockets games are always the most boring live telecast home games on national television. What's with all the lower level empty seats? All the Red seats makes it just seem dull despite an otherwise interesting team...

Really high ticket prices, and most of those seats are corporate seats, which don't make for the best attendance

Don't let players walk cause you don't want to pay them... Pretty much the reason the Nash Suns teams didn't win is because Sarver didn't wanna pay Joe Johnson, Same reason the Thunder fell apart after they didnt wanna pay Harden. (Not complaining about the Thunder though :lol: )

Yeah, this is one of the worst things about the Rockets home games. I hate how people see our games and people are casually trickling in those lower-bowl seats in the second quarter. One thing that I'd love to see change is those seats be available to actual fans and not whomever gets that night's tickets from the boss.

I know that it won't, but it would be nice. We'd have better luck trying to get the cameras to angle so that they catch the Red Rowdies in the background. :lol:

I thought with the paper work and NBA having to finalize the official ownership, Tillman would have to wait for at least a few more months, but i guess he is officially the owner? Seeing him at the game and walking onto the court after the game i guess shows it.

As for tilman, i hope he just lets morey do his job
