2. Clyde Drexler
3. Moses Malone
4. Calvin Murphy
5. Rudy T
Honorable mentions: (healthy) Tracy McGrady, Steve Francis, and Charles Barkley was not bad for us at all. The man fought for rebounds on every possession.

Steve Francis?
Where's the BAN button?
Yao is better than him by far. Even NOT counting how Francis flamed out in the second stint as a Rocket. Did Francis ever get the Rockets...yeah, really, at least Yao got out of Round #1!

Seriously?
Francis played his heart out as a Rocket. Him, along with Cuttino and Yao. Those teams showed a lot of heart. You knock on Francis is pretty weak. He got injured as a Magic/Knick and tried his best to make it again as a Rocket. The injuries were just too much. In fact, he actually lost 15-20 pounds before this season started.

I agree with everything maybe except for Clyde who was not with the Rockets for very long but is one of the best to ever play the game and might substitute him for Rudy Tomjanovich.
