Rockets Iron Men

Let's discuss the Iron Men in Rockets history.

I say Otis Thorpe is Tony Starks


Note how many games he played and started every year.
Of course in 94-95, he got traded so he didn't play 82 games for the Rockets.

he started 99% of time in 6 1/2 seasons. Wow.

No DNP in OT.

Clutch City is forever dude.

The Mayans wrote about Clutch City.

Besides, the voting on the team of the 90s is on.

Plus you can talk about any iron men of the Rockets of any era.

but you guys choose not to.

 

Still unappreciated on Clutchfans

Otis Thorpe, they don't know about you and your power forwardness

it's great timing,
how many times are fans complaining about not having anyone who can rebound or how many times fans are saying the team is soft

We need an OT on this team

when the Rockets traded for OT, that was the beginning of the foundation of Clutch City

 

can't name another Rockets iron man ?

I didn't expect a fan of the glass man to know anything about Rockets iron men.

 

so we've never anyone worthy of the iron man title after OT?

 

there you go
