We got to witness one of the best Rockets games of all time in person! Attending the Houston Rockets’ 2nd game of the finals with our little brother Audray was a night to remember!
When we drove to the stadium, it was packed, and there was so much traffic. We thankfully got blessed to be able to get into the parking garage that was right by the Toyota Center. Though this was super expensive, it was definitely something we three had to do in order to keep us safe.
Once we successfully got in, we had so much fun! All around there was music and games that we could play for free! This was one of the games we were able to play before the game started. We arrived a little later and did not have that much time to walk around before the game started. But we still had a really good time with the time we did have.
We saw a large section with Houston Rockets jerseys and thought that they looked so cool. These were from the previous players on the Rocket Team, and they had them all laid up on a wall. Behind us were the jerseys; they all had different colors and numbers as well as different designs. We had to hurry up and get to our seats after this because the game started and we were nowhere near our seats.
When we made it to our seats, the players were already walking out to go to the court. We thankfully got there in enough time to see Steph Curry walk out :). Even though we are on the Rockets team, who doesn’t love Steph Curry? We had to stand for the national anthem and wait for the game to officially start. They had videos on the big screen to keep us all excited and give us energy to really cheer on the players.
Akiya wanted to record herself and show you all how excited she was for the game!! Akiya loves sports, and Amiya likes sports as well, but more so playing them than watching them. Akiya and Audray really wanted to go to this finals game and hoped that this time they could win the game. They did not want the Rockets to lose like they did in their first game against the Golden State Warriors.
This was their final show before the game officially started. These effects were so cool, and they were getting the crowd even more excited for the game. When the game started, the crowd could see the difference in how the Rockets were playing in game 2 versus game 1. They took the lead in the beginning of the game and continued to dominate the whole game.
You can hear the crowd cheering on the Rockets during the game. There were a lot of fights and fouls that caused the game to stop. Most of the game was really fun, and we had a really good time!
