    In honor of the Rockets all decade teams announced last season, I have decided to determine the Rockets All-Brawl Team. This would be the Rockets team of players and coaches I would want with me in a brawl. Let me know if I forgot anyone. I think this team would be scary and also scary good.

    Starting 5

    G Calvin Murphy
    G Vernon “ Mad Max” Maxwell (Someone please help with some video of Max)
    F Charles Barkley
    F Moses Malone
    C Kevin Willis

    Bench

    G/ Coach: Scott Brooks (young Chuck Norris minus beard)
    F: Ron Artest – Crowd Control
    F/ Coach: Rudy T - Fall Guy
    F: Robert Horry – Brass Knuckles ( Fist full of rings)
    C: Akeem Olajuwon – Bulletproof Vest (Shotblocker)
    C : Dikembe Mutombo – Love\Peace Maker
    C: Yao Ming – Intimidation
    Reserves
    D-League Call up: Chuck Hayes - Love\Peace Maker
    Rookie - Royce White (I don’t think they want none....possibly the next Dennis Rodman)
    Coaching
    Head Coach: Rudy T (Player Coach)
    Scott Brooks (Player Coach)
    Van Gundy – Ankle Biter

    I think this team has everything, intimidation, defense, offense, giants, and giant killers. It would also have hall of fame level coaching. We would have people for every situation. Barkley and Malone could grab the other sides best fighter and let you tee off on him. If the crowd got out of line, Maxwell and Artest would be the best crowd control. My favorite lineup would be the Crazy Eyes lineup of Brooks, Maxwell, Artest, Hayes, and Willis. The one question mark would be Horry, but he brings the brass knuckles and heck he played Ali.
    The biggest Challenge would be keeping players from going after each other or the coaches from going after each other

    From all the videos on YouTube and from the stories from some of the more experienced members of the BBS, I'd have to go with Vernon Maxwell. Dude is like a bat**** insane Ron Artest. :grin:

    How is this even a contest? Mad Max might be crazy, but Artest is crazy and very, very large. Artest without a question. I'd bring a lawn chair and lemonade and watch him take care of business for me.

    Barkley of course.

    He threw a grown man through a glass wall in a Houston club. He bodyslamed Shaq during a game.

    I will take Barkley

    Didn't MadMax beat up a fan because he said something about his daughter being a stillborn?

    Who would you be most scared to play one-on-one with at a court in the middle of nowhere?

    I've got to say Artest over Maxwell. Max had an anger and ego problem and was not scared to settle his differences. Artest is just crazy.

    Maxwell hands down but Thorpe is a close second, with the size of his hands he could grab somebody by their heads and smush them! For those who think Artest is crazy, think again, the guy is a straight up actor.

    Forgot he was once a Rocket. I was actually thinking Oakley, or the Davis Brothers would be a great fit with this team.

    You seriously under estimate Max. Artest says crazy stuff, but Max does crazy stuff. First of all he was the kind of guy you look in the eyes and dont see anyone home. You comparing a guy admits sippin Henn at halftime vs a guy who admitted snorting coke b4 games. (In addition to weed and liquor)

    Also, Ron will even tell you he saw Mad Max stab a dude in the heart with a table leg in a streetball game.

    For me it was a tossup between Cal Murphy and Mad Max.
