    most hated: David Wesley. Hated seeing him in the game more than any other Rocket ever, including Matt Maloney.

    and you left the most explosive/emotional Rocket of all time off your list

    you know that dude who dropped 30points in a one quarter, that guy who dropped 35 points in a playoff game in the second half, that dude that greets opposing players with the F word.
