    The words that each Rocket fan would use would probably be different.

    But the lack of fear of the Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan is spot on.

    I know some of you don't understand this, but it's ok because you listen to really bad rap music or dance on TikTok.

    Be warned:

    FOR REAL ROCKETS FANS ONLY

    proud of that kid in the background absorbing real knowledge.
    @heypartner

    he's definitely getting more real knowledge about the Clutch City Rockets than like 50% of these Max Kellerman fanboys here.

    Man the way Max says it right there is just gold! He just said the n-word like he doesn’t give a ****...and Max can say he doesn’t like the Mad Max nickname, but man you gotta be a little crazy to do what he just said.

    I need that footage! And I need a Vernon and MJ sit down right now, so they can discuss 90s basketball, the trash talk, the what ifs, their team head-to-head match ups...

    The whole team felt this way.
    And THE FANS IN HOUSTON DID TOO.

    Anything possible with rockets personnel and Rudy t.

    Olujuwon would dominate on the defensive end for sure.

    I'm pretty sure home court advantage would also be a factor in addition to the play of Ron Harper!

    Jordan was gonna have to have the jumper and the fadeaway working too because the 3000 blocked shot machine is always on duty!

    Just call olujuwon 'Terminator 3000'!

    Vernon Maxwell can believe he can stop Jordan. It's a long list of fools yet Jordan is just 'evolution'.

    Only problem I have with Maxwell belief is that those championship team$ of 94-95 were completely self-less teams.

    Maxwell was apart of a unit that represented at a time when nba needed veteran leadership. Maxwell provided that leadership in a major way.

    I really hope they finally make a Vernon bobblehead next season or whenever we go back to life. He has made an amazing comeback from being the junkyard dog to persona non grata, back to being beloved Houston icon. And all it took was just talking sh** about Utah.

    The team was coached by a blue collar mentality coach in tomjanovich. If defense overload one side just use common sense.

    I won't disagree with the will power to beat Jordan from Maxwell but beating Jordan takes luck in addition to schemes and will power.

    Vernon Maxwell did what it took to win a championship.

    It was just tough and solid defense. Maxwell made the momentum changing plays on offense (going length of the floor for layup, end of first half buzzer beat, knocking down three's out of an olujuwon double team).
