@Zabulon MJ did say that he was skeptical about the Bulls chances against the Rockets and he was glad they never saw each other. The championship team before they had Drexler was one the Bulls were really concerned about the Knicks frontcourt was the best one the Bulls faced the Rockets forwards had more athleticism compared to the Knicks forwards and Dream was even more versatile compared to Ewing.
The Suns still could've won the series if they hadn't uncharacteristically missed so many freethrows in G5 that was definitely a mental thing. They probably wouldn't have gotten past the Spurs though with Robinson and Rodman in the frontcourt.
PeediSigel Barkley had a chance to ice Game 5, and he bricked his two FTs. The Suns had a 15 point lead in Game 7 and blew that. There was nothing fortunate about the Rockets winning. The Suns simply couldn't close the deal, and the Rockets did. Same story as the year before. That's why the Rockets had the two championships and the Suns just had great regular seasons.
@@jbobbster Horseshit. The Rockets were down 3-1 and one Wesley Person shot away from losing 4-1. The man was one of their best shooters and he missed an open three during the final seconds of the 4th quarter. That's called good fortune for the Rockets. Just like Barkley missing a couple of free-throws. Don't speak on things you don't know. Houston was, in fact, both a resilient team and very fortunate this series.
@@bubufubu Like I said, the Suns had their chance and didn't close the deal. The Rockets didn't go away, and when they got their chance to close, they took it. And even champions get good fortune. That's why the Rockets have two titles and the Suns just had great regular seasons. Those things we all know.
That turn around base line jumper was deadly.
A. Rod, please, say it again.
It was such an honor to be a young Rockets fan in the 90s and having the chance to grow up and watch Hakeem every night.
Those left baseline fades... damn, unreal talent. No other big gets even close
You’re right. They are mostly on the left side.
Clyde's face at 5:37. 😂😂😂 He was lookin at the camera " Yep, that's a bad man right there" 🤣
Hakeem Olajuwon on fire!
Too many weapons, jump hook, mid range jumper, turn around fade away..passing
Jordan learned his footwork in his 2nd 3peat when he came and redefined his game from THE DREAM!!
Lord u r delusional jordan was posting guys up long before 96 dummy.. n Olajuwon even admitted he got his footwork from the best guards in nba
30p-8rb-10as-5bl....this guy was amazing!to bad for my sans and sir charles,he also has great game 34p-14reb but did n't have much help.
Hakeem! Dem turn around baseline fades ...... deadly indeed!
What was strange about both these series in 94 and 95 is that Barkley would have a great game and then follow it up immediately with a bad one.
May I ask anyone has game 5 of this series?
Rockets lowkey playing triangle offense
Probably why they frustrated the Bulls so much they were beating them at their own game.

Always wondered how different this series might have been if Klien hadn't injured Danny Manning in practice

@@bubufubu Nope. Houston is better. Hakeem > Barkley. Phoenix is choke town.

Wasn't Hakeem in this video the same age as ya boy Wilt choking in the NBA Finals despite West the Finals MVP dragging him around all 7 games? Lol
