    Only true OGs remember when the situation was so dire we had to combine our players together to pretend we had good players on the roster.

    Scolandry lmfao

    Also Trevor Ariza being our #1 guy that one season.

    Lockout shortened season. Drexler retiring 1 year too early could have slapped Pippen and put him in check.

    We had the ultimate team and perhaps won the title.

    PG - Matt Maloney / Mobley
    SG - Clyde Drexler / Dickerson
    SF - Scottie Pippen / Eddie Johnson
    PF - Charles Barkley / Othella
    C - Olajuwon / Carr

    Bullard / Price / MJ Stopper Rodrick Rhodes.

    Next year we traded for Francis but got rid of Pippen for scraps.

    Calvin being sued by his daughters for molestation
    (which he was acquitted of. . .but who the hell knows) and losing his color commentator job permanently. No one has ever come close to filling his shoes.

    Which leads me to:

    - Clyde "The Baby Seal Clubber" Drexler as a color commentator
    - Matt "King of Repeat" Bullard as a color commentator
    - Lionel "I steal Calvin's Lines" Hollins as a color commentator

    in his 2 seasons as the houston rocket, preseason included, alperen sengun has played more than 30 minutes ONLY TEN TIMES...

    so basically hes in his rookie season now, since he played only a handful of real nba games

    hes not a sophomore like jalen green and hes still a better player by far....IMPRESSIVE

    Considering the rockets went to two western conference finals and never missed the playoffs with harden for 8 straight years you need to get you’re head checked

    Terrence Jones stepping on a homeless person

    Sterling Brown getting a bottle smashed on him at a nightclub

    Donanatas Motiejunas knowing his rights

    The Russell Westbrook trade

    The Ty Lawson trade

    27 missed three pointers

    Scott Foster

    The Yao, Mac and Dikembe injuries in 2009

    That time the refs wouldn't count a made dunk by Harden against San Antonio

    Hardens San Antonio game 6

    2005 Mavs game 7
