    Name as many Ex-Rockets players as you can that played with Hakeem Olajuwon during his outstanding career. There should be more than 100 Players including any players that played briefly. The trick also you have to remeber their Jersy No.

    I can name about 60 Ex-Rockets with their Jersy No. and I will post it tomorrow.

    Please answer from your own memory like I did (no cheating). Also do not duplicate someone else's answer.

    Let's see who the real Rockets fans are.

    Thanks and good luck.

    What is the correct spelling Rocketsauce for those names.

    Do you have any more players to add to the list.

    I believe David Wood was #40.

    I think Bobfinn* got almost the complete list but with no jersey numbers. I think Bobfinn* got the list from somewhere though not from his own memory. [​IMG]

    This will make us appreciate Hakeem the Dream Olajuwon more. Over 100 player came in and left and the dream is still here.

    Thanks everyone for your participation.

    NBA Action is Fantastic.

    Good list AntiSonic, but I have to disqulify the following because they are still active Rockets players as of last season and I am looking for Ex-Rockets players:

    Walt Williams - 42
    Shandon Anderson - 40
    Steve Francis - 3
    Cuttino Mobley - 5
    Kenny Thomas - 21
    Moochie Norris - 12
    Carlos Rogers - 6
    Kelvin Cato - 13
    Matt Bullard - 50

    I also have to disqualify Ralf Sampson because he was already mention in prior post.

    AntiSonic total is 27 players.

    Total Ex-Rockets mentioned is 32 so far.

    This question is going to get much tougher as we run out of names.
