C Caldwell Jones F James Bailey F Robert Reid G Terry Teagle G Allen Leavell This one was actually real though....
Arguable. Maybe a new coach will help Moochie get his mojo back and be serviceable. I would than replace him with Bryce Drew. Doubtful though.
C-Thomas 'two sammiches' Hamilton PF-Carlos Rogers SF-Buck Johnson SG-Rodrick Rhodes PG-i'll have to give this one to Moochie...he wouldn't have been here but that contract is making him stick out. AND this is just my memory of some of the bad players we had...i know there's A LOT more.
C-Charles Jones PF-Adrian Caldwelll SF-Tim Breaux SG-Elmer Bennett (sorry Bellaire alum's) PG-Melvin Booker
hahahha Booker....i think Jones was more serviceable during garbage time than Hamilton was at any time.....sorta...hahah
I'll take Moocie out of this because he had one unforgetable game two years back compared to be rest of these jokers who havent done a damn thing. I cant remember who we played that night. The game I speak of is one where the Rox went to overtime and Moochie couldnt actually miss a shot. He did everything including key steals and rebounds and Bill and Calvin and the crowd went absolute nuts. They chanted his name and he recieved a standing O'. That was simply unforgetable........until he started playing like a CBA 3rd stringer again. But for that game he is off my list. And Rodrick Rhodes was actually pretty good. I dont think he belongs there either. As long as people still remember Tim Breaux, I dont think Rhodes will be on that list. And since I am going back in time to the good ole' days, what ever happened to Turbo's flying mascot buddies like Eclipse? They were cool back in tha' day.
C- Zan Tabak (he got a ring for what?) at least charles jones had his moment in the sun against david robinson... Thomas Hamilton gave us some laughs when put on oliver miller... and he didn't cost us anything... somehow petruska's name came up on my list... PF- My memory's fading... there was this guy that we signed.. this white guy for a 10 day contract while half our team was injured. That guy was huffing and puffing up and down the court.. if only I could remember. But that was kinda embarassing.. every basket he scored Calvin was all excited about it. Other than that... what has Chris Jent done for us? =P SF- If it's about what we paid for and what we got.. Pippen... but when it came to talent level and what he produced as a Rocket... SG- Rodrick Rhodes... pretty high first rounder that didn't do much but shoot from that same spot about 18 feet away. I'm serious.. if the defender's standing on that spot he wouldn't know what to do!! Glad we traded him to get Sam Mack back PG- Moochie had his year but that money made him stand out.. but can't put him here really... Bryce Drew was expected so much out of.. so much we passed on Rashard Lewis. then again there's Brent Price's "big" contract. Randy Livingston was all hyped up too... but I guess you can blame it on his knee injuries... or the shape of his head.
You do realize that Robert Reid was a very big contributor and starter on two different Rockets teams that went to the finals in the 80's don't you. Allen Leavell was not too shabby either.
Drew was becoming quite the positive at the time he blew out the knee. I still believe had he stayed healthy that Rock team wouldacoulda best Da Bulls (in '97). I still believe.
