    Franchise dunk contest. Even though it was rigged to have Vinsanity win Stevie got great media coverage. Although the Rockets breaking the Lakers before the superbowl gave such notables moments like Rudy T and "Kapaya", Cato swatting Shaq and then dunking on him.

    The departure from the low-post in general.
    Thank goodness for young talent in the backcourt. [​IMG]

    The day Julie at the Rocket's office planted a stack of tickets 3 inches wide in my hand.

    Of course, she wasn't impressed when I asked her out for a date claiming I was a Rocket's season ticket holder.

    ....next.

    Beating Portland twice, pushing them into overtime another time, and beating the Lakers.

    The dunk contest was pretty sweet too.

    Is it any coincidence that the Bull is one of only three NBA players with a team named after him? I don’t think so!!!!

    The six game winning streak back in January. Suddenly we started beating great teams on national TV. I mean, when was the last time we won on NBC or TNT or TBS? That curse has not only been broken, it has been trampled into the ground repeatedly.
    It was so uplifting to see that this team could win with a new offensive system in place. Also to watch Francis get at least 11 assists and 25 pts a night.

    All the great "what was your favorite ..." threads.

    And beating Portland. That was sweet.
