All the games Houston Rockets have won in the history till now...because this is the team that truely represent NBA (imo) My main ones are: Winning Game 6 Against Portland in Round 1 of NBA Playoffs in 2008-2009 The game that Shane Battier and Aaron Brooks fired up against LA during the playoffs in 2008-2009 The times we beat Jazz!!! The times we won all 22 Games IN A ROW... Steps to the 1994&1995 Championships 13pts in 35secs Aaron Brooks this year performance Watching the rookies grow up in games we won and lost Yao dominating every game.. Scola 44pts against Nets The games that Hakeem Olajuwon blocks

Skip-2-my-lou putting the moves on Sacha vukjake-however you spell his name-cic Not my number 1, but I don't know if anyone's posted it yet, so putting it out there...
Yao's over the shoulder no look passes to a cutting Francis. Tmac 13 in 35 Tmacs dunk over Bradley and JVG looking like nothing happened Marios kiss of death The Dream Shake on the Admiral Novaks 3 to keep the streak alive Nochbar CLEAN block on Malone then just walking off.. that was sweet Getting Clyde the Glide - phi slama jama baby When Clutch City started <- i think this happened after game When Rudy T said, "Never underestimate the heart of a champion" best quote of all time Scola developing the scoop Carl Herrera swinging his elbow then bloodying someones head open, that was sick Watching Moochie with his afro and his high socks play Skip sick move on Sasha O yeah, and When yao made the turn around jumper against Portland with seconds left, thought they had won, then portland throws the ball in to Roy and Mcgrady just points at him and Roy makes a wide open three and the Rockets looking disappointed. Farkin A.
O yeah, and there was 1 time when Hakeem launched the ball from full court and it went in.. I dont know if anyone even remembers that, but it was the end of regulation. It was still nice though
newbie to rox fandom here, i'veonly just begun watching rox b-ball last season, so i'd hafta say j-hill swatting kendrick perkins then watching the rox hold boston scoreless to end the game in OT after only suiting up 9 guys
My favorite is when we locked up the win against the lakers in 07-08 for our 22nd straight win and Rafer frustrated Vujacic with his crossovers enough for him to intentionally foul at the end of the game.
Good idea for a thread -- the ones I remember are the ones I was in the stadium for. Novack's game winner during the streak A regular season game against the 76ers where AI and TMac traded daggers within the final minute - we won on Tracy's 18 footer The 1st round clincher against Portland. The house was rockin
the best, more recent memory is when they stole McGrady from the Magic. I felt so optimistic and excited for the season to begin.

I have so many memories but I want to share one that I was reminiscing on earlier today. Not sure I could say its my favorite but surely in my top 5. It was that Moochie Norris buzzer beater he made in one of the seasons he played with the Rox. After he made the game winning shot he took his shirt off and ran off the court. Lol. This one sticks to me for a special reason.. He made that shot when I was in 6th grade and playing in a basketball league for the YMCA. That weekend my team had a game that went down to the wire. It was a tied game with only two seconds left on the clock. Since I was the "go to guy" on my team, everyone was counting on me Don't remember what exactly my coach was saying during the timeout but since we were all 12 year olds who sucked at basketball, it didn't really matter. Anyways a teammate in bounded the ball from the sideline and I caught it along the baseline. Did a little shake (the shake little kids do every time they play 1 on 1) and shot a 14 footer along the baseline. The ball circled around the rim a good 3 times before it went it! I was so excited I made the buzzer beater and guess how I celebrated? Took my shirt off and ran out the Dulles High School gym lol. I had to come back to shake the other teams hand but man I felt like I was the sh%* all thanks to Moochie. Couldn't find the original shot I was referring to but here is another game winner from Mr. Norris <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gz7UMk7vlFw&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gz7UMk7vlFw&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
