    That triple overtime win really brought out the fans and this win over San Antonio will keep them coming back. What a terrific game.

    I saw the game on DirecTV and you could really hear the crowd in the third and at the end of the came. The chants of deffense were great. Even the Spurs announcers commented on the electricity in the summit. Tonights game was how basketball was meant to be played and veiwed.

    The Spurs announcers in the first half had the nerve to say that the sellout at Compaq was to see the first place Spurs [​IMG]

    He just forgot to finish the line :

    "...lose to the Rockets".

    I couldn't believe it was sold out. A buddy and I decided to go catch the game at the last minute but couldn't get a ticket at the Summit. Last in attendance but not tonight I guess. [​IMG]

    Why is Gonzaga always given a double digit seed? Just move them to the Sweet 16 where they belong and let them play from there.

    That's so killer that we finally beat the Spurms! I have the NBA pack to watch the Rocks games at home in Austin, but since we're still in the "so-called" San Antonio area (I live 100 miles from SA), the League Pass package won't show the Spurs games, no matter who it's against. So, I had to watch the game on the SA network. The bludering idiocy of the Spurms announcers confounds me. I hope none of you ever have to go through that mess. It's too bad that Tim Duncan has all that talent, yet he's turning into a softy, thanks to Rear Admiral Robinson. Duncan drives, often scores, and the rest of the time waits for the whistle to blow. Cat's getting that way, too, but hopefully Rudy can straighten him out.

    The crowd was awesome tonight, and I was REALLY into it.

    There was one section in the upper prom, that was ALL SPURS FANS. I was pissed at them, because they kept on chanting "go spurs go!" Glad we sent them home unhappy.

    Yeah I picked a good game to go to when i bought tickets at the beginning of the year. The crowd was someone dead in the first half but you could feel some playoff level electricity when bull started hitting those threes.

    Well, the way they play the 1st half did not give the crowd much to cheer about....
