That was an amazing playoff series and I'm not the greatest basket ball fan. Hakeem was probably right at his peak versus Shaq being a rugged (and huge) youngster in the league. Hakeem flat out smarted Shaq one-on-one and was a lot better team player to boot.
Clyde the Glide came home to show his stuff big time. He was at the end of his career and gave it everything - Nothing held back.
I wish the NBA would put the Rockets / Magic Finals series on DVD. Houston had a fantastic playoff run that season.
