One day after the 25th anniversary of the Rockets 2nd championship, we discuss some new information that reveals how the trade for Clyde Drexler almost didn't happen. Drexler was a driving force in the Rockets winning the 1994-95 NBA Championship but according to former Blazers GM Bob Whitsitt, that trade almost didn't happen. ESPN Houston's Joel Blank, who was a member of the Rockets organization during that time, recounts the rollercoaster year that capped Houston's back-to-back titles.
