Well 22/50 Is not that bad overall. If my maths is right I believe that's 44%From the field. Which just happens to be his Career percentage anyways...And He had 4rbs 4ast 3stls. My point is he wasn't just being typical Kobe Jacking up Shots. He was actually getting guys involved and playing a Lil defense as well. And most importantly they Won the Game. Had they not won the game I would agree with you!
That's Kobe in his last game after 20 straight seasons playing the better conference, after coming back from catastrophic injuries toward the end. I recall Jordan, still in his prime, taking 49 shots against the Magic in '93 and scoring 64 in an OT loss. Statistical comparisons across years are a waste of time in for this sport.
@ 7:13... Check out Steve Kerr's reaction after the MJ bucket. I will never forget this shot. Simply incredible! You know what else is incredible? So many of Jordan's made field goals are nothing but net. He was the best ever!
The amount of nuttin' but net is also related to the technology. They changed the ball quality years ago, it was in 2008 or 2010. The ball is slightly lighter than back then.

He was on his ass and sliding when his shot went in.
He was past his prime. He wasnt as explosive and quick as he was in the earlier years so he used maturity, saviness and fundamentals to dominate games as he got older
One of the games I'll never forget. My second year of watching basketball being an 11-year-old kid and watching Michael Jordan I was in awe. When he retired, I cried because he was the only reason I watched basketball. He did it with such ease and had a killer instinct and was she really a pleasure to watch (same as Kobe Bryant)
Green eyed Monster Me too man I'll never forget that day in 99 when he retired I was 10 years old I cried like I lost my best friend cause at the time if you'd have told me in 97-98 that'd be my last time watching them I'd said you was bullshitting! And I didn't become a Kobe fan until MJ retired from Chicago!
So true, just watched the video..he saw the double team coming on left and stopped then went left using Howard as a screen ..haha..he was unmatchable..especially in games like this
"The bullets are a fabulous team. They're a team of the future" -MJ. Wow was he hinting at something here. He was selling them way before he became owner
Dude, he was saying that because they had Rod Strickland, Chris Webber and co. on the team which could’ve been a good core for a future contender if they’d acquired a few other players. None of those guys were there in a few years.
Same here. Saw this game live, was really exciting. I watch it now and am baffled by how easily he scored 55 points. Lot of one on one coverage, no help defense and he spammed that 13 foot fade away in the paint.
This was after he went into the Wizards/Bullets locker room and said "who gonna check me today?" Do you know how cold and savage you have to be to do that, AND drop a double nickel(55 points) in a playoff game!? That's some real G.O.A.T. ish right here!!!!!
Playing MJ with single coverage is just begging for 50 points. But also Calbert Cheaney even managing avoid bumping into Howard at 8:15 is impressive. He was a solid defender for sure.
Just look at the spacing and how clogged the lane was back then bec there wasnt a lot of 3pt shooting threat. This is one of the reasons why people believe that MJ can average 40 ppg today. He's a midrange god and very crafty within the perimeter. If the lane is open he would love to attack it and wont care if he gets fouled bec. he's a very good FT shooter.
He may have highest point of all times if he did not retire to recharge himself. He is already in top 5 scorer despite playing less games than the rest.
The Bullets' Head Coach had his team in an "upset mindset." Fortunately MJ recognized it and with assistance by Kerr (Game 1) and Pippen (Game 3) had just enough to sweep them.
+Ricky Moss That's not a travel look at it again, he planted that foot a split second before he lifted the ball up above his shoulders. Difference between him and players today is a lot of them will pick up their dribble earlier than how Jordan usually does his moves because they don't have the combination of skill, coordination, mentality and physical attributes to do it without travelling when they are under pressure. But it is not today's players fault, the NBA rules these days just don't challenge them at all, they know they are not gonna get called for travel so why not pick your dribble earlier to give the defense less chances to knock the ball loose.
+Amjbmcg Supersonics,Pacers,Jazz,Trailblazers,SUNS,91 Lakers and future Lakers,Rockets,Knicks,Pistons,Magic...don't hate and undermine Jordan's achievements,these were all great teams
The difference between him and LBJ is MJ had a all around game from jump and the best midrange game ever tbh but shot 3s when he wanted peope thought he just couldn't shoot them🤣 nah it was a choice.... prime example Portland in the damn finals a record still 6 3s in the 1st 1/2🤔 he went 6 for 8 as well smh, LBJ had the game but couldn't shoot as better but his last 5yrs his field goal % has risen to add his 3 point % has too meaning he had get there MJ was already there another example rookie yr 28.2 ppg... LBJ 20.6 which is still damn good and it has nothing to do with MJ's 2yrs at UNC because he did lead the with James Worthy to a title at 19yrs old so yeah again just proves a couple of ways MJ is fucking insane and LBJ is behind but still Great just not the greatest.
@@spitshinetommy3721 just imagine in 1997 still a physical league compared to the NBA today which is extremely fragile and soft? Remember Michael Jordan set records from 1984 to 1998 through the physically toughest era of the NBA. That's why its comical to think what Jordan would do to todays NBA with no hand checking or forearms on offensive players. 45+ppg would be Jordans average in todays NBA. It's really hard to believe that a player was just so much better then a player today like Lebron James, but Michael Jordan was. The proof is in the pudding with 10 Scoring titles, highest ppg average in the regular season and playoffs, 6 finals mvps, Defensive Player of the year, averaged 37.1ppg an entire 1987 season which was the most physical era of the NBA, 5 mvps, 6-0 in the finals, more 30/40/50 point games then Lebron James. This list goes on and on in Jordans favor! Keep watching The Last Dance documentary hopefully you can learn about the true GOAT Michael Jeffrey Jordan!
i know Im asking the wrong place but does someone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my account password. I appreciate any help you can give me
I was in High school watching this poerty in motion. I tell my kids this is the best of all time no let the new news fool u. The real goat retired for the final time in 2003
DOWN SOUTH u hillbilly inbred down south dk head. He was 40 years old can still avg 20 points. Scored 40 against Nets which was the east conference champion.
DOWN SOUTH yes at 40 it’s called challenging yourself and taking on the best something bron knows nothing about ,Jordan is the best ever it’s not even close so to bring up Washington where he berated 20plus a game shows your low IQ in basketball
@@downsouth3493He was still getting buckets when was on wizards he almost took them to the playoffs untill he got injured. He said himself he came back to mentor the next generation of players and championship wasn't his goal when he joined the wizards
MJ was amazing. I honestly was inspired by him. 20 freakin years later and i only compare this man to himself which mj was better the guy that played against lakers portland phoenix sonics or jazz. even then its hard he was so great that all are so special. my personal favorite was the jazz last series cause i knew it was last time i see him in the finals and after all the years he mustered up all he had and won it! Mj love you forever!
He scores 55 and the rest of the team scores 54. The bullets did the best thing to try not to double team him and just let one man beat them. That would have normally worked but, with MJ can erupt for 60 if needed. If they had double teamed Jordan then the rest of the team would have scored another 20 points and the end score would have been 120 - 105. This was the best coaching decision on the bullets coaching. WOW!
How can I express what I feel? The fadeaway is the most difficult shot and did you see the number of fadeaways/toughshots the guy takes... like it's nothing...and he was 34 years old...not even in his prime anymore !!! He does it so easily and so smoothly !! In a playoffs game...! Shame on anybody who tries to disrespect not only basketball but MJ comparing him to LJ...that's crazy ! And none of those tough shots(besides the last one) surprise the announcers ! Another day at the office for MJ...
Calbert Cheney was one of the best Big Ten players I’ve ever seen as a kid. I believe still the all team leading Big Ten scorer. He was a good defender too. And Jordan just steam rolls him. 😂
That NBA ON NBC tune though... hahah I love it. Man, I spent 6 weeks in the hospital as a kid, and I remember being wide awake at night watching any games that were on. And I used to look forward to watching any games I could, even on school nights. I feel so lucky to have grown up with this era of basketball and MJ. I was old enough to appreciate and understand all of his championships.
RetroCNY Me too man I'll be 30 next week although I can remember seeing his first two at a very early age but the first ring I really got an understanding of was the 93 one when I was 5. Being born in 88 I'm blessed to have grown up in the Jordan era and the Shaq and Kobe era and I agree with you man it don't get no better than NBA on NBC! They need to bring it back!!!!!!!
Just a regular, degular double nickel in the playoffs. I watched this live thinking, "Washington really can't play much better than this...and MJ is just swatting them away like a gnat". He was demoralizing to compete against...and that's the ultimate advantage I give him over Kobe and LeBron. He didn't just beat you, he took your will. Washington played their asses off in Game 3, but they played like a team HOPING to win a game vs a team that knew they would.
Easily, but probably only for a few games. Then he would retire from basketball, because he would get bored with today's NBA. No real challenge for him. It's so good to watch these old videos, very exciting skills there.
this is a jordan video it has nothing to do with lebron but people like you always bring up Lebron? i watch so many jordan videos and every comment i see lebron will never be jordan.. but how come every time you people always put lebrons name next to jordan? Jordans time is over and Jordan will always be the greatest. but right now in this ERA Lebron is the best. people should be glad the NBA has a player like Lebron and to inspire kids to play ball, just like Jordan did
MJ in the playoffs has had 8 50 pt games, 63 Boston 1986, 50 Cleveland 1988, 55 Cleveland 1988, 50 Cleveland 1989, 56 Miami 1992, 54 NY 1993, 55 Phoenix 1993, 55 Washington 1997. I do not think Lebron has ever scored 50 in a playoff game am I right?
remember when kobe scored 60 and took 50 shots and everybody thought it was a big deal. Jordan took 22 shots and scored 55, that's pretty good.
sorry 22 for 35 shots.
+D Lowe Yeah kobe was 22/50 I think
damn I had no idea
Well 22/50 Is not that bad overall. If my maths is right I believe that's 44%From the field. Which just happens to be his Career percentage anyways...And He had 4rbs 4ast 3stls. My point is he wasn't just being typical Kobe Jacking up Shots. He was actually getting guys involved and playing a Lil defense as well. And most importantly they Won the Game.

He was on his ass and sliding when his shot went in.
You mean is the best ever lol
This performance was unreal!! Wow MJ
JORDAN was past his prime at this point. And he still schools a young BULLETS team for 55. Goat
Nah, he wasn't past his prime. He just wasn't at the apex of his physical skills, but still better than anyone else.
He was past his prime. He wasnt as explosive and quick as he was in the earlier years so he used maturity, saviness and fundamentals to dominate games as he got older
This is NBA on NBC, nuff said
The theme music is basically the soundtrack to my childhood.

I love that intro!
Yes it does! I also love how it gave a little back story on the teams too before the theme music started!
that sound of nbc in the intro reminds me of the bulls and michael jordan era!!
Unlike any other athlete watching Jordan is inspiring 👈💯#theGoat
08:15 he used the double team as a screen .....don't do it to em like that Mike...they just kids
+Harri v'Jah This comment is fuckin' hilarious but completely true. This guy was 34 doing this to guys way younger than him. What a fuckin' beast.
So true, just watched the video..he saw the double team coming on left and stopped then went left using Howard as a screen ..haha..he was unmatchable..especially in games like this
How privileged are we to be alive to witness this. Time will show this man was, always and will be the greatest basketball player ever
Mostly amazingly, he shot well over 60%!!
On jump shots! That's when you know it's over.
"The bullets are a fabulous team. They're a team of the future" -MJ. Wow was he hinting at something here. He was selling them way before he became owner
Dude, he was saying that because they had Rod Strickland, Chris Webber and co. on the team which could’ve been a good core for a future contender if they’d acquired a few other players. None of those guys were there in a few years.
Moreno12 remember gm 3 tho? The ending was sic with Jordan and Pippen going off during those last couple of minutes. Amazing duo wrk
Greatest of all-time king Michael Jordan
it seems like yesterday when I watched this on TV
Same here. Saw this game live, was really exciting.
I watch it now and am baffled by how easily he scored 55 points.
Lot of one on one coverage, no help defense and he spammed that 13 foot fade away in the paint.
that midrange game is lethal with the syringe
This was after he went into the Wizards/Bullets locker room and said "who gonna check me today?" Do you know how cold and savage you have to be to do that, AND drop a double nickel(55 points) in a playoff game!? That's some real G.O.A.T. ish right here!!!!!
Playing MJ with single coverage is just begging for 50 points. But also Calbert Cheaney even managing avoid bumping into Howard at 8:15 is impressive. He was a solid defender for sure.
Jordan made only 30 million throughout the '98 season while these scrubs today make more than 40M 🤦♂️
MixedBoyUS they're better and face better talents tho
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T the fuck you say
Just look at the spacing and how clogged the lane was back then bec there wasnt a lot of 3pt shooting threat. This is one of the reasons why people believe that MJ can average 40 ppg today.

How many pump fakes is Chaney going to go for?
Jay Scribe He never learns!
It's Jordan
Jay Scribe Calbert Cheaney was a good defender. Jordan's pump fake was on 🔥 that night.
MJ had him on skates the whole game. He was literally at Jordan mercy...
It's Jordan, you have to honor everything he does, because, well...he can do it all! lol
Man I miss the bulls NBA on NBC and Marv Albert theses was the days
Special game with some special players!
those intro brings back my childhood. miss those days ☹️
Look at chaney muggin mike n no complaining or flopping just takes it to the rack..that was just good physical defense
22-35 and played 44 min this game... You just don't see near 60 point games with a 63% FG percentage from a guard in games today.
9 of 9 from the free-throw line as well. lol!
and this is playoff, not regular season, which makes it even tougher
And just about all of it from midrange J's.
7:14 I used the bathroom, came back, he was still in the air! LOL! DAMN!
...out there giv'n dem boys dat woik
that was 3 tough wins for Chicago. remember watching this. 11th grade
yeah michael jordan scored fifty five points in this playoff game but i still give the bullets credit for not getting blown out in this 3-0 sweep

Jordan would destroy any team he plays against today!
No perimeter player has ever scored like that with so much effiency!the closest scorer with that much effiency is Kd tbh
If there was a way to like,favorite or retweet ,I would have done all to the comment below
The difference between him and LBJ is MJ had a all around game from jump and the best midrange game ever tbh but shot 3s when he wanted peope thought he just couldn't shoot them🤣 nah it was a choice.... prime example Portland in the damn finals a record still 6 3s in the 1st 1/2🤔 he went 6 for 8 as well smh, LBJ had the game but couldn't shoot as better but his last 5yrs his field goal % has risen to add his 3 point % has too meaning he had get there MJ was already there another example rookie yr 28.2 ppg...

When he says bullets are the team of the future....Lol did he kno he was gonna b playing for them in about 5 yrs hahahahaaha.....
Did he not shoot a three?
hate comparing..just find someone can reach 33 percent per game..then he is better than jordan
val goozy what
People don't understand just how amazing this is. He's doin it wit Jumpshots, not Lay-ups and Dunks.
Ahmad2423 - exactly. Too many are clueless.

Yes... people do understand. That's why he's labeled as GOAT by most.
According to that chart, he had 4 baskets in the paint and shot 22/35. 9/9 free throws. Best midrange game of all time. It isn't even close.
+HPM Royale I always have a good laugh at that nonsense. Jerry Stackhouse dunked a lot and he shot less than 41 percent from the field for his career.
+HPM Royale MJ has the best mid range jumper. He didn't dunk a lot in his 2nd 3peat. U don't know bball quite well.
+HPM Royale you wrote ”see”, not ”say” in the first comment. That was misleading.
Bar none!
tony tonyt Jordan did not have a great team in the 80s. And he was 40 years old with a bad knee in the wizards. And Lebron is a 30% midrange shooter.

Jordan with the harden stepback j in 1997
19 jumpshots, 2 lay-ups and 1 dunk for 45 pts.
Add 10 FTs for 55 pts!
The Goat can score in all possible ways, this time with 2pt jumpshots!
Looking back, it's surprising Washington only got to the #8 seed. Pretty solid lineup!
That dunk on Juwan.....just incredible.
MJ has EIGHT 50-point games in the playoffs... No other player has more than three.
WOW . . .THE BEST

Easily, but probably only for a few games. Then he would retire from basketball, because he would get bored with today's NBA. No real challenge for him. It's so good to watch these old videos, very exciting skills there.
this is a jordan video it has nothing to do with lebron but people like you always bring up Lebron? i watch so many jordan videos and every comment i see lebron will never be jordan.. but how come every time you people always put lebrons name next to jordan? Jordans time is over and Jordan will always be the greatest. but right now in this ERA Lebron is the best. people should be glad the NBA has a player like Lebron and to inspire kids to play ball, just like Jordan did
faced stronger teams
Should have retired for good as a Bull
Jordan is the 🐐

Jordan amazing but that defense was bad lol
Bro is this a joke?
Probably the best 40+ point game of his 2nd stint with the Bulls.
if MJ is playing in this present championship game. I think he could average 40+ points.
sure he would

MJ in the playoffs has had 8 50 pt games, 63 Boston 1986, 50 Cleveland 1988, 55 Cleveland 1988, 50 Cleveland 1989, 56 Miami 1992, 54 NY 1993, 55 Phoenix 1993, 55 Washington 1997. I do not think Lebron has ever scored 50 in a playoff game am I right?
Think about it back then the bulls were struggling to pay the greatest 30million a year, now you got guys like Ben Simmons making more than that.
