I've been 3 times this summer and its well worth it. Great hoops action, lots of highlight reel plays and real sense of the Houston basketball community. I have had great conversations with so many of the fans that come out. Great atmosphere. I'll be one of the few Asian guys there. Hope you guys make it out for the last night.
Heres some pictures of when i saw Cuttino Mobley My signed hat Mobley giving me an autograph i look so funny
I went today for the championship game and I got a jersey signed by Steve, Cat, Moochie, james posey, nick van exel. I tried to get Sam Casell but he was in a hurry. Anyways the game was a blowout. Nick van exel was on fire, he kept making those threes.
The first 5 minutes of the game were incredible, that tip in dunk by Posey got the crowd hyped. Van Exel stole the show with 30 points in the 1st half . He hit 9 threes. Number 7 for the Fonde team can jump out the gym.
The Rockets dancers were nice too... haha Yeah Nicky V. as they kept calling him was goin off... and Sam Cassell was nice to see. I'm glad I got to experience all this great basketball at such a close distance. I really enjoyed it.
I sat right next too jeff van gundy and two of his friends are whoever they where .I dont't think jvg hates sf3 like everyone thinks he do because ,everytime steve made a bad play he seem to be like ahhh like he was pulling for him .I did here him say he "he still don't learn when francis turned the ball over once . I dont't think he likes moochie though cause i heard him say "ok you scored now get off the court"and the other two dudes laughed . most of the time jvg and the two dudes were cracking jokes on people walking by...... True story .
jvg seems to be a cool dude and he looks younger in person I also spoke to mario elie in the hall way, just said whats up . they all seem to be down to earth dudes. I also noticed a bunch of groupies outside waiting for steve to get in his car so they could make a move on him .I heard them talking about how he had to come to his car and when he did they where gonna be with him tonight. did anybody else here or see anything?
Someone change the title of this thread to: "Famous players and/or coaches I thought I saw while drinking my juice in the hood"
