    The atmosphere, the crowd, the excitement.....this just gets you pumped for Rockets basketball.

    And, MAJOR props to whoever decided to play "It's a Small World" during the Magic's lineup. Genius.

    Thanks for the much-needed break from this miserable season. The 1995 playoffs were the greatest time ever to be a Rockets fan.

    Man, just watching that video gives me tingles down my back.

    I really wish I was old enough to experience Houston sports around that time period.

    Wish there was somewhere I could download the games from the Knicks and Magic series.

    I still remember working graveyard shift on the docks and loading trucks for RPS during that series. I thought we were going to lose that series because even if they couldn't stop Hakeem, I didn't think we'd be able to stop Shaq. After that, I just thought they had a better team. Man, was I glad I was wrong.

    BTW, Matt Thomas was the stadium's public announcer, and it's still amazing that KLF still sounds good to me. Ancients of mooooooo. :cool:

    Nice to see Nick taking it so well. If I were him I probably would have used my brains to decorate my apartment.

    Both of those teams had an amazing level of talent -- stacked at just about every position.

    Man, after watching that video, you have to ask the question: Where did the passion from Rockets fans go??
