Would anyone buy Classic Rocket/Non Rocket NBA game DVDs if they were released?

    I am just curious--but would anyone be interested in buying Classic Rocket/Non-Rocket NBA Games on DVD (that are shown in their entirety with possible pre-game and post game stuff etc.....) if they were actually released and marketed by the NBA.

    Of course these DVDs would be just like watching a full game how it was on TV--except they would have crystal clear quality and would not degrade.

    Does anyone think a market like this would be effective? Would people shell out money for these games? Would any of you shell out money for CLASSIC NBA Games?

    Yeah, I think I would. I'm supposed to be getting "Clutch City" and "Double Clutch" pretty soon, but I still think it would be neat to have full games. I'd also love to be able to get some full games from other championship games and teams. Great idea, IMO!!!

    I sure as hell would. I do not know why the NBA wouldn't consider it. Watching the actual game is where you truly live in the moment, not watching the highlight films.

    I'm in. I'm a marketing/international business major so it should help reach the millions of chinese viewers too.

    Yep,

    Count me in. I would love the playoff series games from 93-96.

    It would be just great, but then what will I do with the hundreds of Rocket video tapes, recorded over the years!

    I wish the NBA would sell games from the 80's. They have every game on tape stashed in a vault in new jersey. The NBA would make a lot of money doing this and as we know the NBA is a business first and a sport second. DVD copies would be even more convenient for them if they could be dubbed in high speed. I would love to get Rockets games from 84 to 90.

    I love to have them. I had a chance awhile back to get them....though not officially licensed or anything ;). I couldn't come up with the cash at the time.
