OT- Vernon Maxwell Game Winner 

Post#1 » by King Roosk » Wed Jun 18, 2008 7:23 am

Okay this is really random, but I've been trying to find a clip of this for a very long time now, and accidentally stumbled upon while "youtubing" Hakeem. For the old school Rockets fans who remember, this was just a regular season game against Golden State duirng the 95 championship. However, it is one of my fondest Rockets memories from those days, and I'm sure it'll get your memories jogging (watching Boston win it all made me reminisce).

Damn, what a shot, yeah that brings back memories, one of my favorite games was the game 7 against the Sonics in the 2nd round of the 1997 playoffs, where we had Barkley, Drexlar, and Hakeem. But we lost it all to Utah that year in the WCF, to bad, I thought we had a better shot at the Bulls then anyone in the west in 1997. But oh well, looking at this video, just look at the crowd, thats pretty amazing that Houston fans can actually get that loud.

Weren't you like 5? :P. I wasn't in the country when all this happened. i came here in the beginning of the Steve Francis era... so yeah, I'm one of those very unlucky fans.

My favorite Mad Max moment has to be the one from 5 years ago.

He wrote $10k worth of hot checks in Sugarland, then paid an attorney $2k to get him probation and a $3k fine.

That's 5k for 10k, baby! That's a half price sale on LIFE.

Skills.

my favorite Mad Max move is he left the court during middle of a game and punch a Blazer fan in the face

Return to Houston Rockets
