The man with the best footwork for a center, the "Dream" dropped 56 of 116 shots(most field goals made) as the Houston Rockets swept the Orlando Magic in the 1995 NBA Finals. I loved watching that performance.

As a Magic fan who held season tickets back then, I remember that season well.

In Game 1 it appeared as if Penny, Shaq, Dennis Scott, Horace Grant, and co. were going to put it on Houston, but the Rockets rallied in the 4th and the combination of Kenny Smith hitting that dang 3pointer and Nick Anderson missing 4 consecutive free throws as Houston got the victory, it seems the momentum swung from A to Z and that young Magic team just never recovered...
