mid 90s title fight - Houston Rockets vs Chicago Bulls
so .. between '93 and '97, the Houston Rockets and the Chicago Bulls went 5-5.
it was interesting hearing vernon maxwell's take on this hypothetical matchup .. "[URL="http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/25116008/vernon-maxwell-says-rockets-would-have-beaten-jordans-bulls"]google the times we played in. They couldn't beat us.[/URL]"

this dude would NOT back down .. same fire, but a taller, more talented John Starks .. w/ craziness of ron artest[COLOR="Green"]**[/COLOR], being anchored by a smoother, more skilled version of Pat Ewing in Hakeem Olajuwan. The Houston Rockets were basically a super charged, super skilled version of the 90s Knicks who always put them to the test.
who you guys got in this one?

**1995: In a game at Portland on February 6, vernon maxwell ran into the stands to punch a fan, later claiming the fan had heckled him for reasons undisclosed. The NBA suspended him for 10 games and fined him $20,000.. **
lets just say vernon was very lucky for "the times he played in"[/SIZE][/COLOR]

... The 94 Knicks choked real hard. 92+93 teams were even better than that one.
