Who are your all-time Houston Rockets' killer(s)?

Oh, I forgot two others:

Jake O'Donnell

and

the 1994-95 Utah Timekeeper. That still pisses me off, to this day.

 

I think it was Michael Adams.

 

Dale Ellis

 

I remember back in his youth Nate McMillan killed us when we played Seattle

 

Jason Terry is from Seattle. Why is that not a surprise?

I am getting tired.

This list is not necessarily Rockets Killers, but they used play real well against us. I guess I got carried away

 

tom gugliata

 

no dan majerle? everyones been said...antoine carrs medium range jumper????

is it me or does everyone save their best game against the rockets

 

That series was amazing, who knew they would go to such lengths to beat us. Because of that incident i always watch the clock religously in crunch time.

Utah was a dirty team, but only a rocket killer once.

Do you remember how pissed bill and clavin were?

 

If you look 3 posts above you will find him on my list.

 

Sam Mitchell just camed to mind. When he was with Minnesota, it seemed he never missed.

Sydney Lowe of all people had his career games against us.

 

Why did you put Lebron James he has like one big game against us?

Actually Avery Johnson comes to mind, ever since he learned to hit that baseline 15 footer (i.e. the only jumpshot he could hit) the spurs have owned us.

Rashard Lewis as of late has had big games whenever he plays us, or am I thinking of me playing NBA 2K6.

 

I'm pretty sure it wasn't Michael Adams. Looking up their career stats, Adams played until the mid 90s.

This guys Mike Evans was older than that. I was only 10-14 at the time he was playing. I remember him being kind of a scrub, but he hit some big 3s for the Nuggets on several occasions against the Rockets.

 

You would know Michael Adams if you saw him. He can't be confused with anyone else. He had the ugliest shot in the history of the NBA.

 

Yes, I remember Michael Adams now. He did have a very ugly shot. Evans was different. Adams, was kind of one handed from the hip if I remember correctly.

 

Gary Payton..he talked crap against the rockets and backed it up...
John Stockton...always seemd to make the big shot against us

 

definitely the sonics back in the days with kemp, payton, schremp, perkin, and mcdaniel in the line up. they were the only team i hate to watch as rockets opponent. they were quite frustrating.. even til now when i think of it...

 

i don't think McDaniel ever played with that group .......maybe Kemp and Payton for 1 year
