    Jason Terry.

    David West.

    Zach Randolph.

    The list is long. There were plenty of games in seasons past when opponents would go career-best on us.

    Jet Terry until further notice. But Batum could be making a case in the future. Heck....even Lillard might have a shot.

    The first two names that I thought of were Dale Ellis and Tom Chambers.

    Stockton? Are you kidding me? Excuse me while I puke.


    Any rockets fan who watched that game was high as hell from Eddie Johnson's shot the game before. Did Stockton hit a shot? Yep. That game was 100 times more about the rockets blowing the lead than Stockton. I wonder how many dudes could have hit the same shot with their **** blocker being bear hugged by a man that Barkley called the "blackest redneck ever." Please. The rockets blew that game. Stockton's no Rocket killer. He was a system point guard who never won anything. Got a lot of assists and steals. Killer side part. No rings.


    Jason terry.


    John Stockton. Where am I?

    Yeah, I remember this guy would play like a bum against everyone else...the moment he played against the Rockets he turned into one of the best PFs to ever play the game or something.

    Terry too.

    Batum is the new breed, at least he doesn't play for Dallas or Utah.

    I'm curious about this. From a long time team supporter, who really is the greatest rocket-killer in history? OP is branding Batum but he's still a newbie while recent history reminds us of Jet. Stockton or Hornacek maybe?
