    Olajuwon was a smooth operator in this series This 95 playoff run will always be unforgettable

    If the ECF that year was a home sweet home series, this WCF was the opposite: game 6 was the only time homecourt prevailed
  • @damonsonnier34
    The same game when Robert Horry made 6 3-point shots, and he earned his reputation as a clutch player.

    One of my favorite seasons of all time. Every team was really after it those years. I forgot how much fun prime worm was to watch as well, and how formidable that duo was with him and the admiral.

    This series (along w/the finals afterwards) is the exact reason many don't put Shaq at the top when debating who was the best at that position during the era. The level of competition was one of the deciding factors there, the other was the overall diversity in the offense. Opposing teams w/the right personnel could get away w/single covering Shaq because he only played 1 style. He'd still score his points however it was also easier to stay home on everyone else that's why he needed a perimeter scorer.

    Lol as a DRob fan can we stop posting games from this series 😢 Dream was something else geez

    The 1995 Rockets were the comeback kids and road warriors rolled up in one. What an improbable and resilient playoff run for a '47-win' team. Plus the greatest center of his era.

    I think it was game 5 of this WSF that had that funny "anything you can do I can do better...." intro by NBC.

    The finals we never got… Chicago and Houston with MJ vs The Dream

    Hanah: "Hakeem, how were you able to dominate David Robinson?" Hakeem: "I don't know." 😂

    Dennis Rodman's final game in a Spurs uniform as the Bulls pulled off a highway robbery of a trade ahead of 95-96 only having to give up Will Purdue to acquire him.

    Robinson’s defense was terrible there 😮

    At elimination game David Robinson only win 4 over 14 games. And score only 17.2points with 0.408shooting. Also he never won the playoff series after 2nd round without homecourt advantage.
  • @3JTriple
    This game shows David Robinson can’t play in high pressure game.
