Which former non Rockets players did you like and wish you could still watch play? My short list is Ricky Davis and the Wallace Triplets: Rasheed, Ben and Gerald. Always wanted all 4 of those guys on one team. Dunk and Fast Breaks and wild unpredictable basketball. Loved watching those guys.
Wally Walker. I keep trying to run over him with a bus, but I miss. I can't believe we traded for this guy.
Battier/Yao/tmac/Lowry/scola/artest/Landry/ Patterson/ab0/ hopefully u get that I miss the 08-09 team. Of giggles and drama. Lin/parson and asik. The team before d12. That was fun to watch and the group was pretty tight. Oops fail. U said no rockets. Kobe
Shaq, but at the same time not Shaq. Iverson. Anthony Mason (the real Draymond Green). Arvydas Sabonis. Chris Webber. Nique. Soon to be but kind of already because he's lost his athleticism Vince Carter.
Rocket fans have traditionally hated Karl Malone with a passion. This is odd to me because his name wasn't spelled with a C. Did you hate him so much that you respected his skills? He's a great player and all, but hard to like for me. Respect? Yes. Like? Not so much.
Honestly, I didn't like anyone that wasn't on our team back in those days. But, I respected his skills a lot more than some of the other players we had to play back then. Yeah, Karl wasn't fun to play, but I liked his game and personality a lot better than I liked Kobe and some of the other jerks.
Drinking game: Every time Karl Malone pluralize a word, you take a shot. Somebody going to fall asleep sober and wake up refresh.
Yeah, he did. I remember seeing him on Barbara Walters years ago and he was proudly showing off his pride and joy. He had a decked out 18 wheeler he drove, just because he always wanted to drive one as a kid.
^ This reminds me to add Isaiah Thomas and Dennis Rodman to my list. And Ewing for that matter. I really liked Ewing's midrange game.
