Mad Max joins the show to relive the 1994 Rockets championship season. The Rockets began the a blistering season 15-0 (NBA record at the time) and ended up 58-24 as the #2 seed in the West. They went through Portland, Phoenix, Utah and finally New York to bring Houston their first major league sports title ever. The biggest storyline going into the '93/94 season was Michael Jordan's retirement from the league, announced just weeks before the season was set to tip. To some, Jordan's absence diminishes the Rockets titles, but according to Maxwell, Chicago would have been light work for the Rockets. 




Max discusses the league without his great friend MJ, Hakeem's greatness, toughest 2-guard matchups, and much more.
