    No one mentioned Scottie Pippen?

    I hated Pippen with every fiber of my being.

    His being added to the team had no impact on my love for the Rockets.

    Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

    no way, lol.

    I love me some captain jack. he's hood and all, but he plays w/ heart and I can't knock that.

    Plus you'd know he'd be on his best behavior if he was back on the 3rd coast.

    Oh hell no!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Captain Jack, along with Demarcus Cousins is my favorite player outside of the Rockets.


    I really dislike Pau, but I feel like once he becomes a Rocket, he'll want to redeem himself from the embarrassment of the playoffs. That would be great for us.

    Pair him up with NeNe...you've got a good team.

    People hate players when they are good, we hate Gasol now because he is on the Lakers and he simply beats people, if he is on our side we will get to know and like him, happens all the time.


    If you got LeBron James you would laugh at the rest of the league, despite the fact you hate him now.

    This is false. I would question my fandom if LeBron was a Rocket. Same goes for Kobe, Chris Paul (before and after the trade...with his floppin', whiny arse), Dirk, Timmy and Fisher.

    To be fair you root for your team. So what if one of your arch nemesis turns red. Still gotta root for the team and the players. Still an ostrich. ;)

    Why would you be mad to have the best current player in the league on your team? Would you be mad at the organization for having the best chance to win and make money? All I'm saying is things are better when you have the best on your side.

    It will be hard rooting for Gasol with the Rockets, but I will still root for Houston, but I would never buy Gasol rockets jersey.

    Best in terms of talent, yes. Best leader, closer, decent and humble person? No.

    Lebron stands for everything I dislike about NBA players.

    Anybody that has ever played for Dallas or LA, other than that if they are an All Star,I'll take them.

    Karl Malone and that's not happening.

    He is the only player that crosses my mind.
