    Tracy's 41 vs. the Hornets

    The second Quarter 3 point shootout was awesome

    why not? ive only been a rocket fan since 92. other than the two championships, this has to be the most memorable moment ever. i'll never forget this game. Alston and Rondo got into it in the first few SECONDS of the game

    Last year's Western conference playoff race was ultra competitive, we were 46-20 at this point last year and we still ended up in the 5th (technically 4th) seed.

    If our record was 46-20 this season we would be 2nd in the conference right now.

    The Hornets game @ NO when Mac and Yao destroyed them
    Novak's GW 3 over Sac-town
    Rafer's hot shooting and Battier's D on Kobe to beat LA
    The gritty effort @ ATL to make it 20 straight
    The national game (TNT) when Mac and Rafer smashed the Mavericks

    Given the nature of what we're celebrating, I'd say it has to be the Lakers game. Each win was better than the last. But the Rafer explosion and toying with Vujacic, all after everyone wrote us off every game, saying this will be where it ends... that was special.

    definately the lakers for the 22nd win, when Skip was toying with sasha vujajic at the end of the game, and when mutumbo was flashing the "2 2" with his fingers ....priceless!

    all the above plus I love how we absolutely destroyed the Wizards (I think it was the Wiz?) the day Yao announced he was out for the season.
    I mean they weren't very good but that win set the tone for the next 10 in a row we would reel off

    It would have been better If T-mac wasn't caught jerking to the tape after.

    I would have to go with the "fakers" game cus i was there.

    I remember on one of the possesions Kobe and Tmac were on the ground fightin for the ball, and Tracy gets the ref to call jump ball, and he stands up all pissed trying to look like the buisness when STILL he had 0 points and kobe had like 14 lol. :p
