NBA Live 95 (PC) (Rockets vs Magic NBA FINALS Game 4) (June 14th 1995)

Описание: Game 4. One more win and its over. One more win and I am done with NBA Live 95 and I'll move on to NBA Live 96 sometime next month. If the Rockets lose this game, they will have one more chance in Game 5 to win on their home court. If the Magic beat them in Game 5 too, then they are going back to Orlando, and I don't want to do that. The Rockets didn't go back to Orlando in real life, neither will I. I'm going for broke! I will win it all either in Game 4, or in Game 5!

Fun fact: When the Houston Rockets made their second championship win in the 1994-1995 season, all the basketball game critics who brazenly said that the Rockets beating the Knicks in the 1994 NBA Finals was a fluke, that they wouldn't be able to defend their championship, especially after getting into the 1995 Playoffs as the 6th seed (I got them in as the 4th or 5th seed in this game) were forced to eat a buffet table of crow by the end of the season.

Fun fact #2: The Houston Rockets are the first NBA team to win a championship as a 6th seeded team in the Playoffs.
