In the NBA of 1994, after Jordan’s retirement, the NBA was looking for a champion after three years of Bulls dominance. In the grand final the Houston Rockets faced the New York Knicks. Both teams offered us an exciting final, decided in the seventh game by the Texan side, 4-3 for Houston. A very physical final and a duel in the painting Olajuwon vs Ewing stellar
