    I'm just amazed every time I see this kind of footage of how much Olajuwon dominated both sides of the floor. He just erased baskets on defense.

    You know it's been a long time without basketball if we're busting out with Olajuwon vs McHale 1986 videos.

    McHale is the newest member of the Rockets.

    Exactly. Mchale might be the new coach, but wtf does Hakeem have to do with this season?

    tinman's just obsessed.

    if you don't want to watch any hakeem highlights, there's a thread about tracy mcgrady and a thread about kobe bryant in the dish.

    if you want to read about rocket fans finding the holy grail, there's one in the garm

    then you and him can go play which tinman thread that we can't ignore reading or posting in for today.

    maybe tomorrow you'll see a new thread teaching you guys that Houston actually had players that don't get booed when their names are called.

    I always love watching the highlights of the Rockets during that run. Why the NBA doesn't remaster complete games of a series like that, or the Rockets/Lakers before it, and sell them is a mystery to me. The Rocks should have won game 4, dammit. And why can't we find someone as good as Robert Reid was at feeding the post? Assuming we ever have a center to play there again! Thanks, tinman. :)-

    Deck,

    I don't care what these idiots think, if they don't want to watch Dream vs McHale, why the hell are they posting here? If you don't like chicken, why are you in line at Popeye's complaining about cruelty to birds?

    I swear some of these kids are like Jesse's pals on Breaking Bad.

    Anyways, I'm pretty damn sure a lot of fans now have never seen McHale play, much less seeing McHale go against Dream.

    As far as I'm concerned, if you are happy with this thread, then this thread rocks the bells.

    Report me to Clutch about posting about Hakeem. Oh wait, read my signature, It's one of Clutch's quote.:rolleyes:

    Who the hell do you think is one of Clutch's most favorite Rocket of all time?
    Let me give you a clue..

    his name sounds like the character in this movie

    I wonder what Dream's stats would be if he was playing in the same era as Bill and Wilt.

    From watching those clips they didn't seem to play that much defense back in the day. People saying Jordan would score 50 with today's rules are crazy. I know post players definitely wouldn't score as much today as in the past.

    You can watch all games of the series against LA on youtube. Not great quality but definitely worth watching.
