    Who will you vote for? I couldn't believe Rafer was on the ballot.

    Here are my five:
    Steve, Cat, Tracy, Dike, and Yao

    Another sham, Tracy is a lock but shouldn't be for the way he quit and did us wrong with his injury and throwing players under the bus.

    If Mutombo doesn't make it, boycot!

    Yao, Mac, Steve, and Cat for sure for me, the last spot is a toss up between chuck, Shane, and Luis

    The love for Francis is seriously ridiculous, just because it seemed like he left it all out there on the court doesn't make him a great player. The guy was all flash, all stats, all ego and never did anything to help us get to the playoffs. I would almost take Tracy over Francis because he was at least trying to be a team player, Francis was just so gifted he could get away with playing selfish. Also Rudy T didn't help, guy basically gave him the ball and he was allowed to do whatever he wanted.

    Winners+TMac only imo.

    Yao
    Hayes
    Scola
    Battier
    McGrady


    The Francis era is one which I would like to forget it. His low IQ made games unbearable to watch at times.

    Yao, Luis, Chuck, Battier have to be locks imo. I will be smh if one or more does not get in favoring a loser instead.

    They embody everything great about this organization. Heart, winners, hustle, truly gave it their all.

    TMac or Francis for the other spot, gonna go TMac due to bball IQ

    Is there a reason why they are doing these so close together? You'd think they'd milk them more and do it over a year or two. They've gone through like 3 decades in 2 months.


    I dont see how Francis doesn't make it...Love him or hate him, he was a huge part of getting past and over the dream era. It was sad to see that era coming to an end, but acquiring Francis gave fans hope we'd rise again.

    Scola should NOT be in this team. He only played 3 years of this decade and year one was average.

    Cleverly disguised 'argue about Francis and McGrady all at one time' thread. :p

    Anyways, for the impact league-wide these players had: Francis - TMac - Battier - Scola - Yao

    Still makes me tear up, Francis took us just as far as McGrady, if he's on there, The Franchise HAS TO BE!

    Where is Ron Ron? T-Lady is the reason why the Rockets couldn't get past the first round.

    84 ppl voted 83 voted for Yao. Whoever didnt needs to be banned from clutchfans.

    Francis has to be there. He bball IQ was low but he you could see he was willing to change his game for Yao. They traded him for McGrady so we dont know how much better they could have gotten together.
