    You've got to be kidding me. The same team that blew Games 3 and 4 at home (when winning just one of them would have basically put dallas away) and lost Game 7 by 40 points? This is your favorite Rockets team??

    Man, I feel old.

    Bobby, you showed us a glimpse of what you could be and then the bod shut down. Sure would've liked to see you in a Rox uni in your prime. You're one of my favorite players. Good luck.

    Man, I've seen this episode mentioned multiple times on this board but I haven't seen it! I searched on youtube and didn't find anything. Does anybody here have it? I want to see it really bad.

    Bobby and Barry really made 04-05 a lot of fun. Damn Mavs ruined it for us.

    It was so gay. I was there at game seven and some of my gay Dallas friends from school told me that they showed me on the local news pouting in my Mac jersey.

    I still do the three point ok thing with my fingers the team did that year when anything good happens to me.

    God Dallas sucks sooo hard.

    Bobby Sura is the epitome of a competitor. He is the Craig Biggio of basketball. Sucks his career had to end like it did.

    My favorite thing about Bob was every time down the court with the ball, he would take a trip through the lane, to make sure there were no easy scoring opportunities. Just doing that thirty times a game is giving up your body.

    Sura once made Chuck Norris cry, so who the hell did Josh Howard think he was messing with!

    I liked him as well and its not his fault, but management dragged their feet for way too long before they cut him!

    I liked Sura's ability to cause 10,5,5 but injuries just slowed him down and by the time he was ready another injury came up,I think back injury and Sura didn't play last season.
    I don't think he will ever play,so he might consider a retirement.

    That series loss is much easy to swallow than the 7 game loss to Utah.
    That series we were the better team.

    people who bounce shots off their own backboard to get the triple double have questionable character, it's funny but still...

    Thanks Bobby, you were always doing the un-expected for us... I don't know how you did it but with your short time (playing wise) on our roster you turned into one of my favorite rockets of all time. Let the Sura legacy continue

    BTW that 04-05 team was the funnest rocket team to watch since our 94-95 team no doubt.

    Coolest Rockets team in the last decade. Sura was a big part of making it so fun to watch. (Yes, I remember Game 7 and Dallas sucks.)
