So many great choices ... I'm going first team 2-1-6.

Second team 9-5-3 (firmly believe Sexton will be on the first team before its all said and done)

Honorable mention 6-12-8 ... hard to leave Buck off

My 2 favorites are Buck and Big Shot Bob, since both were Rockets. I started following the Rockets when I moved here primarily because of Buck. After that, Mo Williams.

Factoids - the Bama players who made NBA All-Star are McDyess, GW, Mo, and Latrell. Latrell and McDyess made the All-NBA team.

Ennis Whatley, Eddie Phillips, and Robert Horry.

Leon Douglas, T.R. Dunn, Reginald "Mule" King...

 

[TideEngineer08]

McDyess, Horre, and Sprewell (even though he did get a bit sideways there for a bit).

 

[CajunCrimson]

Horry, McDyess, and TR

3, 4, 10.

Never care to see or hear 6 again after he choked Carlesimo.

2, 4 & 12. Still absolutely can’t believe Charles Cleveland was never a long time all pro. The man could flat out shoot from anywhere. On the freshman team, he did. RIP

I also thought Kennedy Winston's game would translate to the NBA.....

Leon Douglas, T.R. Dunn, Reginald "Mule" King...

Probably my top three as well. I wish I knew the Rocket 8. But the '70's and '80's players were unreal.

My older friends said Ronald Steele was another Ennis Whatley. With a chance to get better!!

Mo Williams!
