My prized possession is a piece of the floor from Compaq Center. Horry and Elie, and Yao, and Mcgrady Jerseys.
I've got an Artest Jersey only used once. Never have been a fan of collecting rockets things, I have a bunch of baseball stuff though.
I have Rockets license plate holders, a Hakeem jersey, and several "NBA Champions - 1995" black wool baseball caps (I bought every 1 the store had) & I must have like 2 dozen left. Sharp looking caps, too... it's got the old Rockets basketball logo on the back of the cap. :grin:
I have a ball signed by the 2007-2008 Rockets team during their 22 game win streak. Only signature I'm missing is (unfortunately) Carl Landry. I also have a ball signed by Kevin Martin, Chase Budinger and Jared Jeffries, but I guess we should file that under "former asset memorabilia."
Hmmm....off the top of my head. From the championship years: The newspaper from the Title day Championship t-shirt "We Always believed" shirt A pair of team issue red warm-up pants A pair of home and a pair of road game shorts Other apparel Pair of Steve Francis white road game shorts a team issued sleeveless shooting shirt Probably 10-15 t shirts 5-6 Polo's Autographed stuff Team signed ball from 10-11? T-Mac Authentic road jersey Team signed poster from 10-11 Mobley signed hat
I have the Hakeem bobblehead from his last home game. My 3 year old son likes when I say "un-beet-a-bul" while I hold it.
Rocket shorts Rocket snap back Rocket Fitted Rocket shirts of course Rockets Away Jersey Rafer Alston #12 because 12 is my favorit number T-Mac All Star Jersey
Jersey wise: ketchup and mustard era: replica Olajuwon red jersey and shorts pinstripe era: Authentic blue Olajuwon Authentic blue Barkley Authentic blue Francis throwback: Red swingman ketchup and mustard Francis current era: Authentic white Yao Authentic red McGrady That makes up most of what I have. I also have the 94 Finals dvd set, some Olajuwon cover SI's, and I used to be a big card collector and had some decent Olajuwon, Yao and McGrady pieces but I sold my collection a few years back so no more.
Hakeem, Otis, Cassell, Horry, Maxwell, Elie, Bullard, Brooks, Elie, Jamerson, Jent, Riley, Petruska, K.Smith, Herrera, Jent, Meents and Tomjanovich. We have other things, but these are my favorites.
I threw away my T-Mac poster so that leaves me with a Rockets key. I also have a skullcap and ticket to game 6 against the Blazers somewhere.
Not sure. Prolly not too much cause I'm sure you can find good deals on ebay for them . Not for sale though. I like my jerseys too much to sell them.
I see a lot of others have the SI Championship issues as well (no surprise). Remember the story around the first one? At game 7 vs NY, SI allegedly had the "NY 94 Champions" already in the works and had been planning the issue. When WE won, SI said nothing for a couple of days then came the announcement: SI won't be making a Houston '94 Champions Edition. Houston SI subscribers went bananas and SI ultimately made the issue...but damn. Are we the Rodney Dangerfield of America or what?
