    The Sonics owned the Rockets back then. If the Nuggets hadn't knocked them out in '94, I don't know if we would have won the championship.

    Ah just didn't get the connection. I couldn't even tell they were playing the Sonics.

    that pic of deke on the ground with the ball is one of the more iconic images in the nba actually.

    Unless, of course, we don't win it in '08.

    Umm, Mutombo was a Rocket, long before he was actually in a Rockets uniform.

    Deke's conquor of the Sonics was the second best memory in the '94 playoffs, slightly ahead of Reggie's miracle 7 in the last seconds against the Knicks and just behind the Rockets First Championship. IMO this was the best playoffs ever.
