That video made me almost cry. Wonderful memories. Unbelievable game. I hope Rockets can win another championship in the near future. Thanks for sharing that video with us.
Good stuff. Hakeem had alot of great moments, and this series was among his finest. He had that little tiny grin going -- enjoying himself. Too bad we could never get the Bulls in the Finals.
I actually enjoyed Game 2 and Game 5 the most in that series. Both of those games were crushing defeats for Spurs and Robinson fans.
They used to have this thing where they had celebrities behind the camera for a quick photo op. So at this game it was Trump.
After watching that I can easily recall the first reaction I had after witnessing that game the first time around, which was "man, this is so great, but what we really need is to change our uniforms to blue and add pinstripes. That would make this feeling I'm having right now that much sweeter". Amazingly enough Leslie shared my view to the last detail. Unbelievable.
The most amazing part of the game was there were no flops. Todays game is weak compared to the way it used to be played.
Just surreal to see Doc Rivers playing basketball. :grin: Dude looks like he could just step on the sidelines and coach then.
What are you talking about? He was awesome! He used to say outlandish stuff on purpose and I used to get a kick out of it.
Haha, yeah, I see your point. I'm a Clyde fan for that very reason. I just thought it was absurd of him to say literally about 5 minutes into the video that Clyde was having a horrible game. Also how after the Rockets 1st make he says "That should have been the first play of the game, not wait till you're behind 4-nothing!!!OMGWTFBBQ!1!!!1!!" All this with only about a minute and a half gone by in the game and the score now 4-2. It was also nice to see every play not brought to us by the new Kia Sportage or T-Mobile. Liked how the ball boys had Taco Cabana sponsored shirts; either that or they were employees let loose on the floor. Good times, folks, good times.
Couldn't find another thread to put this in. The second game against the Lakers was one of the most exciting games of last season. It was by far Jordan Hill's best game as a Rocket. Can't wait to see how he has improved over this summer. Also, i miss Ish Smith. <iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/LJcQsXLk9zY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Watched the whole game yesterday....Some things of note, or refreshing to my memory: I miss Robert Horry and Sam, Robert had such a unique way of passing the ball. Especially the chest/zip pass of his. Charles Jones had a high motor for a 37 year old, he came in as a veteran defender and really helped us versus David Robinson and Shaq this year. He showed very good positional defense. While Kenny Smith was a competent offensive threat, a clutch shot maker, and a great all around guy. Man he really Sucked on defense, I mean he was really bad. Avery and Doc and Vinny were getting into the lane with ease. Imagine if he didn't have the greatest shot blocker and help defender of this generation behind him anchoring the defense. How bad would he be then? He was in essence out of the league 2 years after this series. Reduced to bouncing around to 4 teams in 96-97 at the tender age of 31. He was the Anti-Rafer... and if I was on clutchfans at this time, i sure we would have heard alot of similar thoughts.
