    Who would you cast of your All Time Rocket team by position? I like this one:

    *Center = HAKEEM
    *POWER FORWARD = BARKLEY
    *SMALL FORWARD = PIPPEN
    *SHOOTING GUARD = TMAC
    *POINT GUARD = HARDEN

    Put someone else instead of Pippen.

    Power forward - I would still go with Otis Thorpe or Scola. Maybe someone else.

    I know Phoenix and Philly Barkley would be spot on but no Rockets Barkley for me.

    PG, SG seems to be ok, you could plug in Harden SG, McGrady at SF, PG Kenny, Lowry or Steve...

    Moses
    Hakeem
    McGrady
    Harden
    Kenny/Lowry

    2nd
    Hakeem
    Thorpe/Scola
    Battier/Artest (World Peace)
    McGrady
    Harden

    Forgot about Drexler (Plug him into the first team if needed)

    Both Hakeem and Moses were true centers, and I can't bring myself to leave one of them off such a list or move one to a forward position.

    Yeah true, the paint would be way too clogged, but I'm sure if we brought in Rudy T as coach he could work some magic. The talent level of that roster is just too good!

    Yao
    Hakeem
    Artest
    TMac
    Harden

    Would give Yao and Hakeem the greenlight to pull up from three, defensively they would be a nightmare along with Artest. Harden handling PG duties, naturally. TMac for the everything else such as scoring 13 in 33 and what not.

    How about a "never amounted to what they should have" Rockets team, by position:

    C Griffin
    PF Barkley
    SF Pippin
    SG Brewer
    PG Lawson
