Durant ranked 2nd! US media showed off Rockets history and was selected as the 75th superstar: Paul 10 Harden ranked 3rd

Basketball

Durant is second! After the new player Durant joined, the US media "thedreamshake" showed that the Rockets' history was selected as the 75th superstar, including Paul 10th and Harden ranks third.

No. 12: When Anthony joined the Rockets, Anthony had entered the late stage of his career. Not only did his original shortcomings and defense be further exposed, but his offensive style was contrary to coach D'Antoni's magic ball concept, which also made him temporarily play for the Rockets and was sent away after 10 games.

No. 11: Rick Barry

As a legendary superstar in the history of the Warriors, Rick Barry also entered the late stage of his career when he joined the Rockets, but unlike Anthony, he still plays a reliable rotation role in Houston, playing for two consecutive seasons before retiring.

No. 10: Paul

Paul also played for the Rockets for two short seasons, but unlike Rick Barry, Paul was still at the end of his peak when he joined, and the "Calling Combination" formed with Harden is also the most regrettable duo in NBA history.

Faced with the extremely luxurious "Cosmic Brave", the Rockets led by the "Calling Cannon Group" is one of the few teams that truly pose a threat and even once forced the Warriors into a desperate situation.

9th place: Westbrook

Before joining the Rockets, Westbrook was already a triple-double king in history, and was still in his peak period.

Helplessly, Westbrook's style of play is inconsistent with the Rockets' magic ball system, which has led to Houston having to send Capela away the ultimate 5-squad, and parted ways after a short season of cooperation.

No. 8: Pippen

is another superstar who joined the Rockets during his career decline. After completing three consecutive championships in 1998, Pippen left the Bulls to join the Rockets and joined hands with Dameng and Barkley to form the old three giants to try to win the championship again.

The poor form and lineup depth caused them to stop early in the playoffs, and Pippen also left the team after playing for a short season.

No. 7: Erwin Hayes

Hayes has always been an underrated superstar, and the same is true on this list. He was selected by the Rockets, but most of his peak and only championships were won by the Bullets (now Wizards), which affected his position in the Rockets history.

No. 6: When Barkley joined the Rockets, Barkley, like Pippen, was already in a downward period of his career, but the difference is that Barkley still maintained his desire to win the championship and played for the Rockets for four seasons and helped the team to enter the Western Conference Finals. If it weren't for Stockton's finals, Barkley would even have the hope of winning the championship as a Rockets player.

No. 5: Drexler

Glider Drexler is one of the greatest superstars in the history of the Trail Blazers. He spent most of his peak with the Trail Blazers, and he also entered the final stage of his career when he joined the Rockets.

But the difference is that Drexler still maintains his good game dominance and has become one of the biggest helpers in Dameng leading the Rockets to defend the title.

4th place: Moses Malone

Moses Malone is the greatest player in the history of the 76ers, but his peak period was with the Rockets. He won two MVPs as a Rockets player in a row, and he once led the team to the finals, but he had no choice but to lose to the Celtics, one of the most powerful teams in history.

3rd place: Harden

Harden is the most successful poaching target in the history of the Rockets. From the Thunder's sixth player to the historical scorer and MVP, the Rockets' right deal has brought the team's 8 years of championship competitiveness.

Helplessly, Harden encountered the top cosmic courage in history with the Rockets, and his failure to win the championship was the core reason why Harden failed to get a higher ranking.

No. 2: Durant ranks second entirely based on his historical ranking and past achievements. After all, he only joined the Rockets in the offseason and has not officially started his Rockets career on the court.

However, according to the Rockets' current lineup configuration and Durant's personal status, he will hope to lead the team to the championship in the next few seasons, but there is a lot of controversy to rank second at the moment.

No doubt, the top position belongs to Dameng. He is the undisputed first person in the history of the Rockets. As the absolute core, he led the team to win the championship twice, and spent almost his entire career with the Rockets. Unless a player can lead the team to win more championships, Dameng will always occupy the top position.
