    I suppose after showing Stockton's buzzer beater, they had to throw us a bone.

    But they better show Game 7 from '94. That game was awesome.

    I wish that for once, they would show one of Hakeem's dominant games against the Admiral.

    ------------------
    Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.

    I think David took his Navy buddies and went on a search-and-destroy mission to get rid of every last tape showing Dream's utter domination of Davey. The images from those games may only exist in the memories of Rockets fans.

    What a game.

    If Mitch Kupchak(the Whiny b****) doesn't go after Akeem, the Rockets win easily.

    I found a video tape of this game at my parent's house last week and I watched it, sober this time. Rudy needs to watch this before next season. They could shorten the 10 second clock to 5 seconds, and that Rocket team would never have had a violation. They also played a lot of low post game without the offense looking stagnant. On this tape, after the game, channel 11 did a post game show with Giff Nielson in probably his first assignment after retiring from football, doing the locker room interviews. He introduced Dream as the boxing champion of the world.

    I found 4 of the games from the '86 Boston Series in my parents closet. I haven't watched them yet so I don't know what the quality is.

    silent j, If they are originals broadcasts then they are most likely very good depending on your cable system at the tim. I have all 6 games of that series on tape but the quality is not as great as I would like. Let me know whats the quality on those and maybe we could do something.
