One
of the game's all-time great guards,
Clyde "The Glide" Drexler was known
for his high-flying yet seemingly
effortless swoops to the basket.
After almost a dozen seasons with
the Portland Trail Blazers, Drexler
left Portland with his name all over
the franchise's record books. During
the 1994-95 season, Drexler was
traded to the Houston Rockets, the
defending NBA champions, who needed
more firepower at guard. A perennial
All-Star and a member of the 1992
U.S. Olympic Dream Team, Drexler
twice led the Blazers to the NBA
Finals. It wasn't until he joined
the Houston Rockets and helped them
win their second straight title that
he finally won a championship
ring...Book
