    WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE ALL TIME ROCKETS BY POSITION EACH

    I BELIEVE THE BEST ROCKETS TEAM OF ALL TIME WOULD HAVE BEEN:

    5-HAKEEM
    4-BARKLEY
    3-T-MAC
    2-DREXLER
    1-CALVIN MURPHY (MAYBE CASSELL)

    BUT I STILL SAY TO THIS DAY THAT IF BARKLEY DIDN'T TEAR HIS TRICEPS MUSCLE IN THAT CRUCIAL SERIES VS UTAH, THEY WOULD HAVE DONE SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE IN THE PLAYOFFS....DO YOU GUYS EVER THINK ABOUT WHAT OUR TEAM WOULDA LOOKED LIKE HAD WE NOT TRADED 4 BARKLEY? OUR HOLES WOULDA BEEN FILLED: without the trade:

    5-Yao backup - Deke
    4-Howard -Horry or Mo T
    3-Jim Jackson -Boki or Horry
    2-T-mac -sura
    1-Cassell -ward

    :D

    Didn't someone already ask you not to type in all caps? How hard is it to understand? I think I'm going to start a poll, the title will be:

    What will be the title of ceddy's next thread?

    a) I'm mad we traded Cassell!

    b) We can't win a championship this year if Yao and T-Mac get hurt

    c) What is the best all time team of players with last names starting with vowels?

    That's gotta be an all-time record - 4 threads on the front page - and the starter has a total of 7 posts. :D

    As long as you take the inevitable ribbing in stride, and just post in other people's threads for a while, you'll be okay Ceddy.

    I think a player should have to play at least 3 years with the Rockets to be eligible:

    Dream....Moses
    Barkley....Thorpe
    Rudy....Horry
    Drexler....Cat
    Calvin....Steve
