Agree. I remember when he made that shot I fell to the ground just as he did screaming because I knew we won our first chip. I got up off the floor and went to get the tequila and we did our shots. Nothing can feel better than finally winning that 1st chip after coming so close before and always failing. I can watch that shot still and remember that moment in time.
My good friend, at the time, was a Lakers fan and we watched the series together. He didn't talk to me for days after that.
I remember that Hakeem had gotten tossed out of the game and I was pissed because I expected us to lose but Sampson came in and won the game for us. Lakers at that time were a true superteam. They didn't just have a big 3 but a big 5 and more stars that came off the bench. Beating them was so satisfying and I remember that it shocked the league so much they stopped having a best of 5 and went to a best of 7 series only.

Nighty , night .... sleep tight!! Sorry for derailing your thread Clutch!!! Go Rockets!!! ....... ....... .......
You need to know the greatest shots in nba history and learn that players and tv announcing are completely different I thank you for bumping my threads though
It was a great shot, and will be forever remembered, BUT.... we were already up more than a possession, and could have still won the game with or without it. That's why I think other shots are better. Max's reaction after it made it twice as memorable too, heh. Good times.
