    I was expecting Fox Sports to show the whole ceremony. Unfortunately commercials are more important to them.... but I did get the small part that they did show. Maybe rockets.com will upload the full thing.

    I'm with you also, disappointed that FSN didn't show the entire ceremony. What a slap in the face to Rockets fans.

    where the hell is Otis Thorpe, Sam Cassell and Vernon Maxwell.

    I can't believe the level of diss Thorpe gets in Houston. The guy was the scape goat for the season that clyde was brought in, but he was Robin to Hakeem in the first championship. He was the second star that got the rockets over the hump.

    It was an online fan vote for the 1990's team of the decade. Thorpe was a candidate along with Max, Cassell and Barkley.....who do you take out to replace with Thorpe?

    He wasn't the scape goat, he was just what portland wanted, sure it would have been nicer if we could have traded Maxwell, but they weren't biting on that, lol

    They didn't show it, but Bill talked about each of these players individually before presenting the team, which unfortunately is only 5 players. We all cheered for them just as much. Relax guys.

    Was there tonight. It was an awesome surprise seeing all those guys there, though the absence of Kenny, Sam, Otis and Vernon was noticeable.

    I think all 8 should have been there together.
