He's certainly been MIA.
Got a pic framed at my house of OT holding my oldest son when he was a toddler. OT is one of my all time favorite Rockets.
Wow he still looks in shape and the same, except for that old man's moustache haha. I wish the Rockets would do more to get in contact with him and honour him.
OT's signature play in my mind will always be palming the rebound and then immediately throwing a a full court outlet pass like a quarterback for an easy fast break layup. The basketball looked like a tennis ball in OT's hands.
WHY didn't they get him to compare hands with Nuk Hopkins!?!? Met Otis in Kemah back in the early 2000's and got his autograph. Seemed happy to have someone recognize him.
I still to this day miss his kind of play, when it was allowed. Big fan of his rebounds and practically throwing elbows to get Malone out of his space with his dirty play.
