As a Rockets fan I really don't think it's a sbad as people make it out to be , it's ok.

The jerseys are much more important imo , I hope they don't use that shiny material.

Also I hope they use more yellow than orange , and that the blue won't be too light.

Looking forward to seeing how the jerseys turn out.

Bah, I'm not too fond of the logo, but it's not that big of a deal. The whole color scheme looks like the Atlanta Thrashers to me. More than likely the logo will get a redo before too long.

But really -- shouldn't people be more worried about scoring points rather than style points?

Reminds me of a Star Trek communicator. I'm probably the only one that sees it though.

To me, the mistake was made when they went with 5 colors. Thats too much IMO. Its extremely hard to create an identity with such a variety of colors. Keep it to three, MAYBE four at the most.

Also, the geometrically incorrect shape of the logo template itself is a little awkward.

Lets just hope the in-game uniforms leave us with a better impression.

I bet we see an "updated" logo (probably the addition of a secondary logo) and an "updated" uniform (plus a third alternate uni feature one of the other 7 colors) next season.

When was the last time an expansion team got their logo/colors right? I mean the Memphis Grizzlies and Toronto Raptors are still "updating" their image, and it seems they've been around forever now. The Bobcats colors are simple, but their logo is a mess.

But the OKC jerseys, especialle away jerseys (do you need to spell the whole name out?) are bunk. Just bad colors, an uninteresting logo, etc. I mean "Thunder." Come on, you can make that really cool.

2-3 seasons we will see an entire re-do, hopefully for the better.

I think the worst part of the jersey is that they opted with going with the entire name of the city. They should of abbreviated it like the Hornets did in OKC. The logos and colors obviously aren't very pretty either.

It's a good thing Durant didn't film an NBA commercial where he keeps taking jerseys off until he gets to the Thunder's stupid one as he finally reaches the big stage...that would've been an oxymoron.
