How the Houston Rockets roster timeline works

Rockets fill the deck, ordered by the year each joined the franchise. Most cards add the player's position. One player begins on the timeline with his year visible, and every card after that is yours to place in a gap. A correct guess reveals the year and keeps the card in place. An incorrect guess moves it to its real position and costs one of your three lives.

Houston wasn't the first home: the franchise started out in San Diego, and its earliest cards come from there. From that point the deck moves through the twin-towers days, the title teams, the long-range shooting era and the young rebuild. Centers lead the printed labels, which fits a club with a long line of great big men. Stars who came by trade for a short stay are the ones most likely to fool you.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
