Rockets fans told not to leave because of severe weather
By Mike Dyce
The Houston Rockets are telling fans to stay in the arena because of severe weather.
If you were watching Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals between the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors, you probably remember hearing commentator Jeff Van Gundy saying he heard lightning.
He wasn’t the only one who heard it.
First time I think I've heard thunder while inside Toyota Center.
