Should this be "Top Ten Memories of 2006" instead of "Memorial Moments"? It sounds like we are commemorating people who died.
The #1 moment without a doubt is: <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jss1xEzh5b4"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jss1xEzh5b4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
Def the making of the YAO and the trade for Battier man I was upset like non other but right now it looks like the best deal since Yao!
my first favorite moment was seeing Yao play like new after his toe surgery. then, my other first favorite moment was seeing Clutch post <a href="http://www.clutchfans.net/game.cfm?gameID=2857">this</a> after Yao destroyed Shaq. I wish I could find Clutch's opening picture and front page blurb for that game, though,...such a great idea and memory for Clutch to pull that historical comparison together so fast. the absolute best Rockets article by anyone this year....Jonathan Feigen included.
