    I sure hope this game is on the list for R2K to encode, I'd love to have it.

    Any thoughts, R2K?

    Just finished, even though Sampson is famous for the shot at the end, you could see that even if Sampson's knees hadn't given out, this was going to be Hakeem's team. he had 30 when he was ejected with about 5 min left in the game and he was starting to takeover.

    I just saw this, or I would have taped/DVRed it. A great game.

    Please R2K make a bit torrent out of this..

    Not just for all of us Rox fans but also so I can show it to people in MN as proof that Jim Peterson could once play and wasn't just some doofus doing color commentary for the T-Wolves.

    another funny thing about the game, when Olajuwon got in the fight with Kupchak, Tommy Heinsohn was saying that they shouldn't kick them out. that was a real fight. now adays if you look the wrong way at an opponent they kick you out and suspend you.

    Yep. Also Lucas would have been ejected for the subsequent takedown of Dream. Sampson was going ballistic. It had only been a quarter earlier when Lucas elbowed Ralph's jaw and the only thing that saved Ralph from getting tossed was that Dream dove into the lane, grabbed him and pulled him away as Ralph was trying to throw punches.

    That game was unbelievable to see again. Dream missing 5 FTs early, getting T'd up and trying to go after the ref. and Ralph pulling him away. Dream screaming "God Dammit" after a missed layup after he was fouled.

    Nothing will ever ease the pain of seeing that team implode in one year's time. Lucas, Mitch, Lou and then Ralph.... :mad:
