    Somebody has upped three Rocket videos from last year. This is a DIRECT DOWNLOAD (but you can't use download accelerators). So all you people that can't get torrents to work because you're connection, you got a treat here. I was getting unbelievable speeds. It totally maxed out my connection with 300+ k/sec.

    Hou/Pho (Game of the Year, T-mac 37 pts, Yao 27/22.)

    Hou/SA (T-mac 13 in 35 seconds.)

    Hou/Mil (Random Rox/Bucks game. I think this one, Yao was out with the flu)

    First off click on the "Download Now" button. Then choose a server. I think only the first set of servers has it. There is a wait time, but like I said, it was worth it because I was getting unbelievable speeds. So after you choose a server, hit "click here to continue." Then you will be entered into a queue to download the file. You can hit "manually refresh status" to see how close you are getting. After a couple of minutes, the link should appear

    The vids are .rar files, so they have to be uncompressed with winrar. And these are "clique releases" encoded by our very own Rockets2K, so you will need the xvid codec if you don't already have it. If you've watched any of R2K's vids this year then you'll be all set. They've had over 600 downloads on these vids this week so it seems like the links will stick around.

    m_cable, the Hou/SA (T-mac 13 in 35 seconds.) - is that TNT's version or local Houston Channel 20 version?

    Nwo34life, it's probably the local station. I didn't download the HOU/SA game because I have it saved already, and I don't remember offhand which telecast it was. But assuming that it's an R2K production, it will probably be the local feed instead of the national one. I'm sure that the other two by R2K because I checked the Phoenix game, and the Milwaukee game is titled in the same format that R2K always uses. But looking at it now, the Spurs game might be from another source because the title is different, and the size is a bit smaller than usual. So you'll just have to download to find out.

    For guys that can't get the link to work, did you follow the steps I outlined below. Because I've gotten it to work at my home computer and my work computer. You might get an ad, but you can "click here to continue" in order to get past it.

    Bump. Okay, is it that nobody is interested in these games or that the links aren't working. Two of the best games of the year on some very fast pipes. I expected more hits than this.

    Download Winrar. A quick google search should do it.

    Thanks for the vids, m_cable. Unfortunately I'm a bit of a club-swinging neanderthal over here, so I'm gonna have to burn some stuff off my drive to make room for 'em...

    Man guys I am so ignorant when it comes to this stuff. First my slow computer took all night downloading. Finally I wake up this morning and its done so I click on it to open and I open it with Windows Media Player. It wont work so I scroll along the thread and I download Winrar and an xvid codec. Then I try to open it again. It extracted the file and went to play it in WMP but all I get is sound but no image. I am so frustrated. Does anyone know what I should do??? I need this so bad, I feel like a crackwhore willing to do anything for a Rockets hit. Please help me if you can. Im so :confused:

    Yeah. Don't know what happened. It was working before. I'd edit it out, but I'm past the time limit.
