Name one former Rocket role player that you would want on this team

Marcus Morris or PatPat

 

Eldridge Recasner
Othella Harrington
Charles Jones
Zan Tabak
Pete Chilcut
Shandon Anderson
Pig Miller
Michael Dickerson
Joaquin Hawkins

 

Otis Thorpe played 35+ minutes a game and even made an all star team.

While his skill set/range was limited, I don't think he counts as a role player.

 

Walt Williams

 

Horry. Funny enough, I think Covington could develop into an Horry-lite player. Hey has the skillset and the size.

 

Vernon Maxwell ftw!!!

 

Robert Horry.

Me too.

 

Just beat me to it...

 

Luuuuuiiiiiiiis Scooooolaaaaaaa


^that kinda hurt to type. ;_;

 

Moses Malone

 

Totally agree - Horry embodies the role player part. That's my vote.

 

All time role players not stars.
1. Sam Cassell
2. Mario Elie
3. Robert horry
4. Otis Thorpe

Currently playing role players.
1. Scola
2. Battier
3. Ppat
4. Dragic

 

Moses Malone and Elvin Hayes were stars and not roleplayers.

My vote goes to Horry. Stretch 4 with plus defense.

 

Wow, what's up with that? Rumors are bound to fly.

 

I did vote for Otis,but your points are good. If he is excluded,then I would vote for Mario Elie. He would bring toughness to the team.

 

Oh Role players? then scratch Moses. Role player then easily i'll go with Sam Cassell or Bobby Sura..

 

Bobby Sura

 

A Young Horry of course is an obvious pick, but here is my list of my 3 picks-

-Glen Rice (if knees are healthy)
-Chucky Brown (can't get no love around here)
-Mario "The junkyard dog" Elie


Elie & Rice weren't PF's but I think they would fit in well with this current team. Elie was a guy that every championship team needs. He did whatever the team needed at the time to win games. Extremely versatile player who was one of the greatest role players of all time IMO.

Glen Rice never got a chance to play truly healthy with the Rockets, but when healthy there were few players who could shoot the rock like Rice. He had the size to play the 3, 2, and some minutes at the 4. I'll take a healthy Glen Rice all day every day.

Chucky Brown is one of the most overlooked Rockets of all time. Alot of people think that Horry was the long-term starter during the second title run, but Chucky Brown was really the primary PF on that team after Thorpe was traded. Versatile PF who was ok doing the dirty work and could hit the 15 foot jumper with ease.
