Seriously, my pick is Sam Cassell. Sammy was our secret weapon during our championship runs and he played with pure heart.He showed a lot of character after he was traded and showed no hard feelings towards the organization. He'll still say that his favorite fans are the Rockets fans. ------------------ Don't look at the feet
No doubt my favorite is Dream. He's the best athlete this city has ever known. But before it's all said and done, and if he remains a Rocket for a while, I believe Francis will someday be held in that class with Olajuwon, especially if he brings some more championships to the Rockets. ------------------
5. tie - Robert Horry/Rodney McRae (sp?) - small forward love 4. Robert Reid - The game's first true point-forward and the knee socks were awesome! 3. Hakeem Olajuwon - I love the guy to death. 2. Steve Francis - I don't know why but he has just won me over. 1. Calvin Murphy - No contest. I carried the guy's bball card around with me and bragged about how he and I are only two days apart with our birthdays. I still get nervous when I see him in person. Rudy T. would qualify for my top five except that I am a bigger fan of him as a career Rocket (player/scout/coach) than just as a player. ------------------ "You know what they say about the music business. Here today, gone TODAY! - Chris Rock at the MTV Music Video Awards
1. Serge Zwikker 2. Richard Petruska 3. Charles "Grandpa" Jones 4. Stanley Roberts 5. Melvin Booker ------------------ "Oh No..." -Bill Walton in 97 just before Stockton's buzzer beater
My favirote's are Steve and Cuttino.Ive only been a fan for four years.I use to love the BULLS,but not as much as i love the Rockets. ------------------
5. Ralph Sampson 4. Mike Newlin 3. Hakeem Olajuwon 2. Chucky Brown 1. Rudy Tomjanovich ------------------ Join the Chucky Brown Fan Club
Favorite Rockets who never were... 5.Mirsad Turkcan 4.Morlon Wiley (from the Scottie Brooks trade) 3.Erik Meek (former Duke...ahem...star) 2.Albert Burditt (former UT baller) 1.Sean Elliott ------------------ P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.
Chris Webber What??!! Nothing wrong with seeing the glass as half full, right? ------------------ "Weathermen are simply con-artists with radar equipment. A 50 percent chance of rain? That's the same as saying 'maybe, maybe not.' I could tell you that!" - P. Mesku
Don't forget CHRIS JENT, who was the inspirational leader in our first championship run. ------------------ "Oh No..." -Bill Walton in 97 just before Stockton's buzzer beater
I'm glad somebody finally mentioned Chris Jent, but lets not forget about Pete Chillcut! ------------------
(1) Sam "peanut head" Cassell (2) Rodney McCray (3) Robert Reid (went to Robert Reid basketball camp so he's got to be on the list). (4) Matt Maloney (only cause we're both Penn graduates) and (5) Rudy T. (yes, a shocker. I hate him as a coach, but loved him as a player)
5)Steve Francis (the future of the franchise) 4)Mad Max ( not popular but, I saw him score 51 and it changed my life) 3)Clyde (love the glide) 2) Moses 1) Dream ------------------ C-son
Do you even need to ask? ------------------ In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.
4 of these things belong together. 4 of things are kinda of the same, but one of these things is not like other ... You had me fooled. Hey, did anyone else know that The Fan Club put in an offer to buy the Grizzlies? lol
Damn, I forgot Mr. Mean. There are some times when I watching the Rockets give up offensive rebound after offensive rebound that I am screaming at Mr. Mean to get his ass off the bench and put a uniform on.
HP: This is a subjective thread, right? I mean, you can razz me because I like Ralph Sampson, but that is bogus, dude. I am putting Raheem Sampson dow to six and putting Vernon Maxwell at five, it changed overnight. HP -- send me a pic, I'll make the membership card.
