Requesting input from CF on creating the Greatest of All Time meta-era "Dream Team" Rockets roster on 2k for some Labor Day lazy afternoon gamin'. I just re-watched probably one of the greatest dunk contests on TV, the 2000 dunk contest with McGrady Carter and Francis. Anyways it made me miss some Stevie and TMAC. Ok top Rocket player at each position for a ridiculously fun 2k session: Steve Francis/ do they have Calvin? Harden/ Maxwell TMAC/ Mobley Moses Malone/Horry Dream/Yao Some of you level 12 2kers may need to help me out. Who's available to build a team with, etc. Who am I overlooking? Who'sfun on 2k? Just Stevie/Beard/TMAC/Dream on the court together already has me stoked. Thanks and Happy Labor Day, folks. (& Go Coogs!)
If you're switching up positions with Moses at PF and Mobley at SF, why not go all out. If D'Antoni were playing this game, he's put Harden at PG, and add Drexler for SG.
Francis, Cassell, Calvin Harden, Drexler, Maxwell Mcgrady, Elie, Battier Hayes, Horry, Scola Hakeem, Yao, Sampson
If you are playing against someone Francis Beard Drexler Yao Dream Bench:Brooks,Lawson,Lowry Mcgrady,Martin,Lee Parsons,Maxwell,Battier Landry,Moses,patterson,Scola Deke,Hayes Lawson off the dribble moves are easy to get to the basket. Who hasn't scored a hundred with Kmart at some point. Yao and dream on defense means nobody is gonna score inside.
Thanks. Having a blast right now destroying the early 2000s Garnett Twolves. Stevie/Sammie Beard/Clyde T-Mac/Big Shot Bob Malone/Thorpe Dream/Yao
Olajuwon/Malone/Yao Barkley/Hayes/Sampson McGrady/Drexler/Tomjonovich Harden/Mobley Murphy/Francis/Cassell
If you want fun: Bobby Jackson (rated 79) on MyTeam is an absolutely beast. 90+ speeds plus great shooting and dribbling.
Harden/Cassell/Murphy Drexler/Maxwell/Mobley TMac/Horry/Rudy T Sampson/Barkley/Thorpe Hakeem/Malone/Yao
It's a matter of who you can find/download. Calvin isnt there. I couldn't find Barkley either within the Steve Francis roster I downloaded. Franchise/Beard/TMAC with Malone/Dream. That 5 right there is redonk. Vintage Stevie with vintage TMAC in particular is so damn fun. Those 2 and Beard get on some wicked sweet fast breaks together. And that signature Stevie dunk that the game absolutely nailed...UNGH. And Big Mo and Dream share the ball so well. It's pick how you want to dominate. Played against Showtime Lakers later today. Don't get to play much now but it was very satisfying. Oh and Yao is a total beast. Didn't realize until this build. 2nd unit is basically eating competition with him and Drexler.
I think I might agree with StupidMoniker about something! Wonders never cease. I don't know why the roster is 14 deep but without thinking too hard about it I'd say these are my top 14 Rockets of all time.
