    Solid list, but Scott Padgett needs to be up there.

    EDIT: Wow.

    Elvin Hayes anybody?... Gotta have Hakeem. Gotta have Yao. Next is Moses. Then Sampson. Then Hayes. Yao did more for basketball (internationally) than any player ever will. I wanna say Clyde too. Best wing player with the Rockets during either championship year.

    Rudy
    Dream
    Murphy
    Yao

    I left off Moses because most of his noteworthy accomplishments were with the 76ers. He would definitely be on a Rockets Mount+1 Rushmore.

    George Washington - Rudy T (One of our first stars. Would eventually command the soldiers and lead them to victory

    Thomas Jefferson - Moses Malone (Took over as leader and brought many changes to the city, including our first Finals berth)

    Theodore Roosevelt - Calvin Murphy (Eccentric and hard-nosed player. Loved by all)

    Abraham Lincoln - Hakeem Olajuwon (Arguably the greatest we had; fulfilled the dream of winning a title and bringing a city together)
