    Mad Max always showed up for the biggest moments. I always wished Jordan never retired because I know Maxwell would have lit MJ up in that series and the Bulls had no answer for Dream, either.

    I remember it like it was yesterday.

    Thing is, Max shot really bad the first 2.5 quarters of the game and didn't start getting hot and putting the wood to the Suns until 5 Mins left in the THIRD QUARTER... Insane.

    Agreed. You can almost guarantee that a Bulls-Rockets Finals would have gone 7 games.

    Greatest Florida player that's ever been in the NBA. That includes Parsons and dare I say Cassell.

    I thought Cassell went to Florida St., no?

    Oh, and that was the same game Danny Ainge threw the ball into Elie's face at the end of the game
