    This is just meant for fun, but I went back to the 2001 and 2002 drafts and looked at players taken by the Rockets.

    If we could turn back time the Rockets had the potential to field these 4 players....

    PG - With these 4 other guys do you really need a PG?
    SG - Gilbert Arenas
    SF - Richard Jefferson
    PF - Zach Randolph
    C - Yao Ming

    I'll venture to say that such a team could do pretty well....have fun with it, later.

    Can we at least get Gilbert Arenas as a throw-in?

    if the Rockets would have picked all of those guys we would have no Yao.

    Considering the Rox leaped from 5th Lotto seed to 1st, it likely would have only taken Jefferson. ;)
