Dream vs Seattle

  1. I know if they called illegal defense, the Rockets would have 20 more free throws a game

    I'm jealous that Tinman has perfected the flux capacitor though I sometimes wonder if he's misusing it by living in the 90's.

    Look, I am one of the biggest "believers" out there, but lets not act like Hakeem didn't have problems beating the Sonics here. It wasn't until Barkley arrived that we FINALLY got over that hump. Those 90's Sonics teams had our number. Heck, didn't we get swept the year before trying to go for chip number 3? Thats why we traded Rockets legends Cassel, Horry and the other junkyard dog Chucky Brown.

    I love the heart though Tinman, don't ever stop.

    Oh with that said though, had that out of bounds call gone the right way instead of being called off Hakeem, we would have beat the Sonics in 92-93 and in my opinion beat the Suns to face the Bulls that year.

    Oh what could have been....

    we lost in overtime in 92 in seattle. we didn't have home court because of a f-ed up call on the last game of the season in san antonio when David Robinson CLEARLY scored after the buzzer.

    Let's not forget that Seattle was playing illegal defense, like every single play.
    So if they were playing legal defense, the outcome would be completely different.

    I don't think that some fans even know what "Illegal Defense" is.

    And for SURE, there are those who are DEFINITELY underestimating the heart of a champion!

    These people are trolls Tinman. Us real fans know what happened. And don't worry about WHAT. He is just a troll who happens to be ignorant. He has very limited basketball knowledge and thinks everyone on the grizzlies is a superstar. Why can't these trolls go post on their forums If they have one. I don't mind WHAT posting on here but when he starts bashing our team and boasting his team every chance he gets that's when he is crossing the line. Especially when he goes and talks s*** about our championships and Hakeem. B**** your team has no championships and your team has never had a player like Hakeem ever play for your team.

    This is why I will NEVER support or cheer for a George Karl team in any way ever, period.

    The guy was a cheater, and the league let him get away with coaching his teams to play illegal defense. I was ecstatic when the Warriors dumped him on his ugly a$$.

    I've watched Olajuwon games and man... The guy was an absolute beast. I was shocked on how smoothly he did up his defenders... A&m I the only 18 year old that goes back to watch these old games?
