Before the game

Spoiler-free context

Houston and New York arrived at Game 7 after a grinding series that placed Hakeem Olajuwon against Patrick Ewing, the center selected one pick after him in 1984. Both franchises were chasing a title that would redefine years of near misses.

  • The series was tied 3–3, with Houston hosting its first Finals Game 7.
  • Olajuwon was trying to complete his MVP and Defensive Player of the Year season; New York sought its first title since 1973.
