    Chamillionaire Standing Ovation

    And I know it's hard to stay humble, they really thought I threw a fumble
    I coulda caught that through the trees, I run it right into the jungle
    Coulda been lil' Mugsy B., tryna back into Mutumbo
    Woulda still been a victory for me, you win then they'll say they love you

    Lil Bow Wow f/ Fabolous, Fundisha & Jermaine Dupri - Basketball
    (another remake to the Kurtis Blow song)

    [Lil’ Bow Wow]
    "I got the rock in my hands
    Aint no telling what I’m gonna do with it
    When I come position I’ma act a fool with it
    I might cross you up fake one way
    Turn around and hit you with you with the MJ fadeaway
    I’m throwing dime passes like J. Kidd
    Taking cats to the rack
    And I’m dunking on them like T. Mac"

    [Jermaine Dupri]
    "Now tell me were you in the joint
    The night MJ scored 63 points
    When the Lakers won titles back to back
    Didnt give nobody, no kind of slack
    When Vince Carter gave and stuck his arm in the rim
    Everybody went crazy in the whole damn gym
    Dikembe Mutombo standing tall
    Playing D with desire, it’s basketball
    "

    Asher Roth --I Love College

    "i am champion at beer pong
    allen iverson Hakeem Olajuwon"

    Lyrics seem rather random.

    Welcome to TX, I'll be your tour guide all expenses paid
    Follow me down the strip homey to MLK
    What you thought this was a horse that you was gonna ride you one
    I'm gonna flip the script and shake your a$$ just like Olajuwon

    "Mannerisms of a young Bobby DeNiro, spent spanish wisdoms
    in a whip with dinero, crime organized like the pharoah
    I cream, I diamond gleam
    High post like Hakeem, got a lot of things to drop
    Brooklyn to Queens, I gotta keep my steam
    @#$%^ wanna try to hem my long jeans..."

    Hov!

    "Bring It On", Produced by DJ Premier...off of his best album... Reasonable Doubt

    I think that is the best Houston Rockets reference up to date, in my opinion.

    I like it, especially the Master P reference to Sam Cassell because it's the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Even though Master P is the biggest ripoff of all time.

    Nice mentioning of Thorpe and Maxwell, any others showing love to players besides the Dream, Yao, Tracy, Francis etc. because like some1 said before, most of it is really random.

    Lil Wayne - Pick 'n' Roll

    It has a lot of basketball references, but it does mention the Rockets a few times.
