    As much as I like seeing Rasheed Wallace hammer in a monster alley-oop, I love people who have fun playing the game, and are not afraid to smile after making a shot. Here are guys whose attitudes I like:

    Francis
    Garnett
    Allen
    D. Anderson
    Webber
    J. Jackson
    E. Jones
    Mobley
    Richmond
    Jayson Williams

    The 8th sign of the apocalypse:

    Revelations 3:4,

    "Houston Rocket fans will hath named Charles Barkley as one of their top ten beloved players and omit the mighty Dream, whilst others shall name Vernon Maxwell to their list ahead of Hakeem Olajuwon. This shall be the eighth and final holy sign the time of tribulation hath begun. Amen."

    1. Hakeem "the Dream" Olajuwon
    2. Patrick Ewing
    3. Steve Franchise
    And the rest in no particular order
    Brian Grant
    Zo
    Cuttino (believe it or not)
    Iverson
    Shaq
    Walt
    Cassell/Horry
    I also like much of the Clippers' roster, and Gary Payton is growing on me (despite his attitude, he can be fun to watch).

    ------------------
    Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.

    I can't believe there are Rocket fans who like players more then our superstar players Cat and Franchise! [​IMG]

    1.) Cat
    2.) Franchise
    3.) Gary Payton
    4.) David Robinson
    5.) Michael Finley
    6.) Ray Allen
    7.) Alonzo Mourning
    8.) Shaquille O'Neal
    9.) Nick Van Exel
    10.) Rasheed Wallace

    With honorable mentions to:
    Grant Hill, Tim Duncan, Danny Fortson, Latrell Sprewell, Chris Webber, Kenyon Martin, Baron Davis, and Ruben Patterson and Lamar Odom, and Shawn Marion. You can throw Chuck in the Top 10 if he returns next season! [​IMG] And Hakeem isn't on the list because it goes without saying with him. He is a large part of the Rockets championships, in fact the major part. Obviously you can't be a Rockets fan and hate the guy. Disagree with him sometimes, but not hate him.

    My fav players:

    10. [​IMG] He may have played "dirty" (as many have insinuated) but he always gave 110% on the floor.

    9. [​IMG] This guy could always light up a scoreboard. Rebounds, points, assists, he did it all. (pre-depression days of course)

    8. [​IMG] This kid had so much potential. If only he'd stayed away from the drugs...if only...

    7. [​IMG] "Cream puff punk" they called him when he first came in the league. "He was too soft to keep up with the big boys." Yeah, well 10 years and 3 rings later he's still bringin' it every night. Who's the "cream puff punks" now?

    6. [​IMG] I know, I know. He never did anything worthwhile in the pros. But he just looked so damned cool! Calvin Murphy, eat your heart out.

    continued...

    The season's almost over...and I still really need that keg of Pepto-Bismol.

    5. [​IMG] If he'd only taken the game a bit more seriously... Still one of the best of all time though. Couldn't get a ring until he hooked up with [​IMG]. Man those two were (and are still) something to watch.

    4. [​IMG] I just wish he'd cut down on the technicals. Taunting is okay, in moderate doses but this guy goes way over the line. His high flying act is almost enough to make you forget about all that though. He may lack in character and substance but this guy is always good for an entertaining show.

    3. [​IMG] In his early years this guy really pissed me off. He had so much talent but was never willing to put in the hard work or listen to his coaches. Now that he's been forced into a player/coach position for his team we can see him for what he truly is. A stubborn leader, and a damned good one at that. He's already led his team to the playoffs and conference finals. It won't be long before they go all the way IMHO.

    2. [​IMG] This guy loves to toy with us, "I'm gonna retire. No wait, I'm not. No, yes I am. Well, maybe...I guess I'll play another year." I wish he'd just admit that he's afraid to leave the game without a ring. Sadly, his skills are on the decline and I doubt he'll ever get one. Always has been a stand up gay and classy player. No matter what happens he'll always be one of my favorites.

    1. [​IMG] This kid's just coming out of high school and will probably get drafted to the League. Whey you guys see him you'll believe its the second coming. Kid's got the entire package and is just primed for the pros. If he grows out of his adolescent akwardness and shy nature when dealing with the press (and I believe he will) he'll re-define the sport all together.


    Guy I absolutely hate: [​IMG]

    WTF is wrong with this guy? I mean, he's always lost on the court, misses his defensive assignments, shoots toward the WRONG BASKET, and generally makes a damn fool of himself. I can't wait until his ass gets shipped to Europe.

    Ah, yes. The chainsaw incident. That one was quite suprising. I should've mentioned it.
