Monday marks the 25th anniversary of the flight of the infamous white Bronco carrying O.J. Simpson and his sidekick Al Cowlings, which led Los Angeles police down the San Diego Freeway in Los Angeles while the Rockets and Knicks played Game 5 of the Finals. "It was the strangest broadcast I've ever been part of," longtime announcer Marv Albert said.
