Anyone up for a little celebration outside of the GARM! Just so freaking thrilling. This is what we are! This is what sets the Rockets apart. Historically. Now these new kids might understand.
Even during the title years I don't remember anything like this, this was completely incomprehensible. At this point I can't see how anybody wouldn't be hyped for Games 7.
Just one game left. One chance. Win or go home. That's all we asked as fans, just one chance to redeem last year's injustice. Let's go Rockets!!!
Does anybody else see the similarities to Clutch City in this series? Road win with huge heart. Harden has flu...just like Drexler had the flu in Phoenix in '95. Nobody believing in the team, but they gut it out. Lets Go!
I'm a STH with a group of cfnetters. But we are planning a pre-game gathering. Easiest would be Lucky's, but I'd be down for midtown. Depends upon the start time, I suppose. Anyone else have pre-game ideas?
Well we were down 2-1 in a 5 game series with Utah and then down 3-1 against Phoenix. There was a game where Mad Max scored 31 in the second half on the road. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=265690
You have to remind me about the series comebacks, everybody remembers those. But i don't remember us being this dead late in any of the individual games, and then to put on a massive run with Dream on the bench.
I thought we had a crazy comeback against Phoenix. But can't tell from the boxscores. I know when we were down 3-1 and on the road in Phoenix, we went to OT to beat them. But I'm not sure how far we were down. Edit: They were down 49-41 at the half. Smaller deficit but also lower scoring.
....... ....... ....... As you may know, our anniversary is Monday so my wife and I are traveling to New Mexico a day early so we can hunker down in our cabin and watch GAME SEVEN (777) on Sunday and not be on the road!!
Rewatched the game and it's still beyond fathomable. The Rockets were dead. We watched them die. Those moments are why sports are great.
Thanks! Just like the Rockets and the City of Houston (winning, of course - because I scored a Championship Wife)!
