    I always like to get to the game early enough to catch the introductions. I love how the Rockets do really cool intro movies before they start announcing the starting lineup.

    The new one they have for the playoffs...

    WOW! Heart pumping and adrenaline pumping!

    It's basically has each player in the dark with flames coming off their bodies with audio from "300 (I think, it was so loud I couldn't really hear)."

    The freaking sweetest part is when they show Luther looking at his hands and they are on fire. If that didn't get you hype for the game, I don't know what will.

    Is there anyone that can provide us with those movies from the Rockets organization, they are simply awesome.

    Rockets2K sampled the part of it that they displayed for the local Game 1 broadcast. It is very cool ....

    I like the part where Jameer Nelson is dribbling, and Rafer comes out of thin air (or smoke) and steals the ball... :eek:

    From a fan's prospective (you can hear the chants from the crowd during the intro) :

    yeah that video is amazing hopefully someone working for the rockets reads these posts and makes the video available on rockets.com or something. my favorite part is when luther is looking at his hands and they go on fire

    Wow, the Rockets intro sure has come a long way from the days of "Rockit" during the early Olajuwon years.

    Would love to have these intros on high res video!
