1978-04-02 - Rockets at Nuggets - Enhanced CBS Broadcast - 1080p

Didn't have to do much with the color or contrast on this one. Used Topaz to clean up noise and to upscale. Original audio had MAJOR hiss and low volume and I addressed these two issues with Audacity

Prime David Thompson footage is always welcome; thank you.

[@BOBBY1006]

Love anything from old-time Houston teams, Oilers, Rockets, Astros, and Cougars football and basketball. LOVE, LOVE this channel. Thanks for the updates, Dave.

[@stevenyanchak549]

Amen. #Oiler4Life

[@BryanX64]

What I’m constantly looking to see if anyone uploads is 70s Rockets games played at the Summit. There’s a few road games like this one but no home games.

[@jonhowe2960]

Thanks, Dave! Lucas and Murphy, what a backcourt 🤩

[@brianb.5473]

Thanks for the game. I enjoy watching any game with "The Horse" Dan Issel in it. Kentucky's all time leading scorer and NBA HOFer.

[@romelovesdan]

Loved when my favorite ABA players and Team became part of the NBA. A great injection of enthusiasm, and a chance for other cities in the nation to see some skilled players.

[@JavierDunk]

Thank you Dave for uploading more classic NBA games 🏀

[@genesmiley9866]

I was never a huge basketball guy but I'm loving this - just enjoying being in the era I guess.

[@dmichael100]

The 77 and 78 Nugget teams with Issel, Thompson and Bobby Jones were my favorite teams of all time. There is a real lack of complete games from this era. Love this upload!

[@_thatscrazy]

It's great to see broadcast footage of other games to see the players. Thompson, Erving, Hayes, McAdoo, Kenon, etc. This was mostly what CBS did during the 1977-78 season. Thanks, Dave!

42:08 Dallas premiered in friggin APRIL?!? That is amazing.

[@joejoewest]

It premiered on that same night, April 2, 1978 as a miniseries before it became a hit show.

[@Goat1229]

Great video. Funny , you no longer hear the sound of the ball bouncing or the sneakers pounding the court like you did back in these days

[@dmichael100]

The view is closer to the court in these games. I liked it much better than the faraway view of today.

[@3243_]

Thank you for another classic game.

[@stevenqbosell]

Thank you for the NBA action!

[@DrSeuss-nv9hw]

Awesome!

[@DiversityDragons]

Bobby Jones as a Nugget!

[@stevenyanchak549]

We lose John Lucas next year for the Rick Berry free agent signing.

[@TroyBrownTV]

14:00 The physicality if Issel is valuable

[@brianbachmeier34]

Excellent

[@michaelskurski912]

Wow so clear

[@TroyBrownTV]

5:12 Murphy is such a lethal shooter, he fakes Issel out of his shoes and gets into the lane off the off-ball screen action. How many more points, games, series' and chips does Murphy win if he has a 3 point line? He went to the finals 2 years after it was added

[@3243_]

1:32:10--a little '70s action, or Mitch Kupchak makes his presence known.

[@michaelskurski912]

It be something if somebody could find The Game in which Kermit Wahington punched rudy T

[@tonyt3955555]

some scrubs on both teams, but really clean video

[@TroyBrownTV]

This is shocking to see. Why is everybody playing so far from the bssket? It looks like 2024 but without a 3 point line 😮

[@NOcode]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TroyBrownTV]

15:17 Issel is a bull in there

[@edscottable]

Where’s my man Moses at?

[@jonhowe2960]

injured. 😪

[@rustyshackleford1114]

How about some Orlando Magic games ? The win against the Lakers in the first year or the Jordan game where he wore 12 because his jersey was stolen are good choices.
