Dr. Feelgood Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOBCciHLa-s I was watching this game and I don't know how many times I got up and jumped in excitement clutch shot after clutch shot. In regulation and in overtime. But when he nailed the game winner, holy crap, I was amazed. One of the best clutch performances I've seen in a very long time. At :52 is one of my favorite parts. It looks like he made Artest slip and in the process of slipping, knocked TMac over as Roy calmly sinks the turnaround fade away. I also like how the crowd is just dead silent when the ball is inbounded and then explodes after swishing through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 What made this loss even worse was that Yao had hit a big shot fading away right before that I had gone nuts over, so when Roy hit his i was completely crushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) I remember watching this game with ChosenOne and he went absolute nuts when Yao had that and one. His reaction after Roy's basket was epic. One lucky shot deserves another. Edited July 23, 2010 by Confidence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His reaction after Roy's basket was epic. One lucky shot deserves another. Both shots were not luck, they were just very good shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazed49 Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Yeah I remember watching this game and being pissed that roy had just hit that nice shot to tie it then fouled yao. But when roy hit the game winner I went bananas. Ridiculous shot. Great reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Roy's shot didn't tie the game, it gave the Blazers a two point lead. Yao hit the shot to tie and the free throw to take the lead. Watch the clip again, lol. I've only watched this clip about 20 times, .

YugoRocketsFan Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 That was one of the first few games the Rockets had and I was excited about it, super excited. I expected a good game, and well we got one. I thought Rockets would have won when Yao made the and 1 but boy was I wrong. Great shot by was painful to swallow (no homo).

fish7718 Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I remember I was watching this game at college me n my roomate and when Yao tied it up we were like OHHHHHHHH, then when Roy hit it we were like OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and we woke up like the whole suite because it was the west coast game on the east coast.

AboveLegit Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 It's not near the Lakers-Spurs ending (when Fisher hit the game winner with 0.4 secs) but I often compare this game to it. I remember watching this game completely, man was it exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammin Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Is it weird that I also remember where I was/what I was doing when I was watching this game? In a Chicago hotel the day before I was forced to go to the Oprah show. November 2008 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Easily one of the greatest game winners I ever saw live. I thought Yao ended it... but when Roy knocked that shot down, damn it was just unreal. It's definitely up there with Fisher's game winner against the Spurs.

*Swish* Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 That's one of the most epic game winner. I see it all the time. Amazing game for the Rockets and the Blazers. WOW 0.8 seconds is nothing to make that long shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NomarFachix Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Fish, remember one of the first games after Marbury came over, he hit a shot, stole the inbounds pass, dished it to Houston, and he nailed a 3 to go to OT? (At least that's what I think happened, can't remember 100%) I was so amped that game haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
