Horace Grant Thinks The Rockets Titles are Questionable

He's just mad his b**** ass got swept out of the '95 Finals by 2-Time NBA Finals MVP Hakeem Olajuwon and the gang.

(BTW I see no Rockets mention whatsoever here)

 

Didn't the Magic beat the Bulls during the playoffs in our 2nd championship?

 

Yup.

An astonishing fact many people seem to forget.

Magic over Bulls 4-2

Rockets over Magic 4-0

 

Don't care.

Seriously, when are we going to get over our inferiority complex with those 2 championships? We need to stop being so sensitive.

 

Horace Grant ought to know better than to buy the Jordan hype, the way his Magic dispatched the Bulls and showed that Jordan needed another top-50 player alongside him and an all-star Power Forward covering his back to be championship material.

 

Not explicitly. But...

I have no inferiority complex. It sucks equally for us that Jordan retired - would have been great to beat him too.

 

well there goes his ambassador job

 

Horace Grant said what?!

Oh wait....its 2011, who cares what Horace Grant says?

 

the 3 rings that pippen and jordan gave horace grant are questionable.

 

The more i hear Pippin talk, the more i wish he should just shut up. His opinion stinks and not even close to true. Lebron better than Jordan?? You're stupid. YES, he maybe better physically and more talents than MJ and that is still debatable but when it comes to fighting spirit and charisma, Lebron James can only dream of having what MJ had. You see, it doesn't matter how big of a size you are or how talented you are, it's about the spirit. Have you heard of the story of a little guy being the boss to a tall but not so bossy guy?? Why is that?? Because the little guy has the spirit that the big can only dream of having. This is the same compare to Jordan and James. Lebron don't have the fighting/dominant spirit of MJ. End of the story.

Now you can say Lebron may have the greatest talents ever in the history of the NBA...that does not make him the greatest player. There is a difference. The greatest player know how to use their talents and will his way to win game under pressure. The last time i checked not so long ago while he was with the Cavs, Lebron happy passing the ball around while his team need someone to score?? So what if he has all the talents in the world, but if you don't have the fighting spirit (DNA) in you, you're not the greatest player in the world. Hell, he's not even close to Kobe at this moment.

 

His name ought to be Horace Granite.

 

thank you, it was like 16 years ago

 

That's what makes it so damn funny. Horace, your team beat Jordan and the Bulls in the 1995 EC Finals. Give yourself a little credit.

 

I hear ya..but this one is strange because Horace was on the team that knocked Jordan out of the playoffs, thus keeping the Rockets from ever playing the Bulls in the Finals.

 

This. Truth is we dont know what would happen, maybe we lose, maybe we win. Whats done is done.

 

who cares?

we still got our rings.

 

If I had any wish in the world it would have been to see a Houston/Chicago finals.

 

I lol'd :grin:

 

That ranks as one of the top things I regret when looking back at the history of the Rockets. Some of the others? Sampson's injury. Another? Lucas, Lew, and Mitch getting tossed by the league for snorting the White Powder. Another? Trading Moses because ownership didn't want to pay him. I'll stop there. Jordan and the Bulls feared us more than any other team, in my opinion. As much as they feared anyone. We matched up well and frequently beat them back in the day. I have no doubt that either Rockets championship team would have nailed their hides to the wall. Of course, this topic has been absolutely beaten to death here. ;-)-
