It didn't help that Drexler was playing on a turned ankle and Cassell was recovering from an injured elbow.
Yup changes a lot of things. Jordan doesn’t get another 3 peat without retiring because his body needed the time off and the Bulls needed to retool. Does he retire if the Rockets beat them in ‘93? I don’t think they get past the Knicks in 94 even if Jordan is around. As it is the Rocket’s 2peat isn’t even thought of nationally on the same level as The Pistons which is a shame. But you give us a 3peat including the toppling of Jordan in 93 and that era of Rockets basketball is included in the all time greats. Plus Hakeem is universally included in everyone’s top 5 list as he arguably should be anyways. Too many what ifs but fun to think about.
Kind of surprised that a guy known for his defense (The Glove) didn't even mention Dream's defense as a reason to put him above Shaq. To me that was always the biggest differentiator. Shaq clogged the middle. Dream OWNED the middle.
Yao inadvertently broke Ben Wallace's shin just by her s foot brushing up against it. As thin as he was north of 330lbs, all his training turned him into a Titan. Just bones and muscular.. There was a guy I worked with at Amazon that was about 6'4 and thought he could take on Floyd Mayweather. A narcissistic creep with hateful issues (also black) with a bad smoking habit thinks he has a chance against Floyd Mayweather..
We didn't match up well against that team. Them losing to Denver was the best thing that ever happened to us
Or he was on the bench during crunch time. Sam Cassell or even Scottie Brooks would get the nod over Kenny. Your right it’s hard to remember because his not even on the court.
Not only did he treat them like mear mortals, he often did it during the month of Ramadan, when he had no nutrients! Go Rockets!!! ....... ....... .......
the real answer is Les Alexander made us wear ugly dildo uniforms instead of the championship red and yellow
Yep.... I really want to know what drugs that person was using when they designed the uniforms. Must have been some rancid stuff!
It looked like it was designed by Les's grandkids or something. Seriously Houston should consider hiring a fashion designer. So many sick uniforms out there. Why are Houston's all so crummy? They haven't improved upon the ketchup & mustard.
No, no, no. Kemp was not too quick for Dream and certainly didn't destroy us. He was good, but inconsistent against the Rockets, mostly due to Dream.
