1993-94: .In 1993-94 Maxwell had a spectacular eight-game stretch in which his three-point shooting was largely responsible for Houston victories.....Perhaps the most memorable occurred on 12/9 in a game with the Miami Heat, when his fallaway trey from 35 feet sent the game into overtime.....then hit a three-pointer in overtime to give Houston a 7-point cushion The ghost of Rockets past...
Wow, thats crazy, I swear that game was like after Xmas though.... That game was unbelieveable, hell, they highlight it on the Clutch City video.
Come on ...one 3 point shot to take a team to overtime does not even come close to 4 3 pt shots in a row in the last 35 seconds. DD
obviously DaDakota, You DID NOT SEE that game. it wasn't a normal 3 pointer. he did a fade away basket from practically out of bounds. He DIDNT EVEN LOOK at the basketball. DaDakota, go on ebay and buy yourself a copy of clutch city.
I never got to see that Heat game back in '93. I didn't have FoxSportsNet(or HSE or PrimeSports or whatever it was called back then). But I remember Gene Peterson calling it and he went nutz when Maxwell hit that three. It wasn't until I saw the highlights later that I realized how ridiculous a shot it was.
back in 93, this was the most amazing last second performance by a Rocket. Hence DEJA VU. Also Tmac is physically more talented than Vernon and has an easier time shooting over people, also has more ups. Therefore I find it about equal.
