    ...but adding one player not named Hakeem to this current squad?

    Moses Malone...hands down.

    A Francis-Lawson-Beverley rotation would be volatile, for sure.

    No to T-Mac and Steve Francis. Too ball-dominant.
    Yao would be redundant since we have Dwight.

    Vernon Maxwell sixth man.

    But in reality JLin would probably be the best choice. Seeing as he's the GOAT.

    Barkley or Malone. Both guys were among the greatest rebounders in NBA history and were elite scorers in the paint, which are both relative weaknesses at times for this team. They would also be massive upgrades at the PF position, which is easily the team's biggest positional weakness right now.

    Add either of those guys in their primes and the Rockets would be heavy, heavy favorites to win the title.
