    I never get tired of watching this video..this is a personal favorite clutch moment. Steve Novak makes a buzzer beating three to keep the Rockets' historic 22 game winning streak alive. This shot brings back all the awesome memories from that winning streak.

    Mario's Kiss of Death and Sam's game winner at the end of game 3 vs the Knicks are is still the standards for me.

    My favorite is timacs 13 in 31,just incredible man. it was really in gods will that we won because of when we stole the ball ine the last second, took it down the court, n tracy pulling up for the 3 pointer to win the game,just incredible...I think it should be the best one in NBA history IMO

    One of my favorite moments with the Rockets was The Shot that ended the Rockets/Lakers WC Finals series in 1986. It's at the end of this funky little 7 minute documentary, which has some groovy "behind the scenes" clips of our glorious heroes, including comments from The Great Moses.

    Mario Elie Kiss of Death

    Take your pick in Game 1 of the '95 finals: Kenny Smith hitting the game tying 3, Olajuwon with the game winning tip in, or the stifling free throw defense against Nick Anderson

    1994, Game 7 -- Vernon Maxwell 3 to put the Rockets up 8 with 1:38 to go.

    "Hakeem ... over to Maxwell ... YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!"
