    No wonder Sammy had a hard time finding your Rockets-related posts in GARM.

    I thought that forum was supposed to be about today's Rockets, not the noble ballers of yesteryear.

    Moses Malone
    Elvin Hayes
    Rudy T
    Calvin Murphy

    The Wopper was really good at taking a punch from Hakeem

    Some tough choices. Billy Paultz could give you a few quality minutes at back up Center and Power Forward, but Billy Paultz was a good enforcer. I liked Billy Paultz'es defensive intensity. But I am gonna have to go with The Whopper based on his overall game and the fact he tastes good with fries and a Vanilla Shake. (Not to be confused with a Dream Shake)
