3:13 "Superman's in the building, black cat, whatever you wanna call him....Jesus...we in trouble tonight!" HAHAHA
I went to look at the score sheet and this dude really dropped 45 on 23 shots...
AIN'T NO FUCKING WAYYYY 😂😂😂😂
Why its no fucking way?
@ryandavis6245 Because it was on 23 shots. There's no way he planned that. If he did, he's on another level entirely 💀
@@whenisdinner2137 This is the GOAT
He purposely missed his last FT to finish with 45 too. MJ was an entirely different breed.
@@jordanryanethanowona2974 Even then that's still fucking inhuman calculation and ability to deliver it in the middle of a serious playoff game.
That 45 was calculated, damn that was cold as ice
“He said look at the scoreboard” BOOM roasted 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn! that story was COLD 🥶
I love Armstrong great underrated player and personality
He was a roll player
@@EzMoney95an amazing "role" player
Bout like Pat Bell@@EzMoney95
The thing is... The Bills also had an Armstrong, during their *first* Threepeat run *B J Armstrong* , who took over the John Paxon role. Darrell was a wonderful player, always ready and eager. A powerful dunker for his size, my only wish is that Darrell was still here in Orlando!
Thing is, it's an even better story than that. Jordan missed not one but BOTH free throws at the end on purpose to finish with 45!!! Tape dont't lie! SAVAGE!!!
Check the box score.
45 ... on 23 shots.
Damn, just i just googled it. MJ's a psycho man
How many 3s?!
@@jasonjamieson1690probably 2 or 3...rest was that killa midrange
@emanuelporter7029 Cooking!
That's crazy.. MJ is definitely the Goat and very petty🤣🤣🤣
Armstrong was a really good, high energy player.
We’ve been trying to tell you young guys about him!
Damn this is crazy, bruh really finished with 45 off 23 attempts lol. Crazy
He had 45, yes, but he hit a *2 pointer to get him from 42pts to
45pts. Just watched the footage it was uploaded 2 days ago to YT.
It was a 2 pointer... 2 hour 19 minute 10 second mark...th-cam.com/video/TSdmAw3YsNM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=BMaXRTlWD9P6ruB5&t=8350
Yeah you right but at the end he got foul and miss two free throws on purpose to keep it at 45

why does that even matter?
ladies and gentlemen, the GOAT
MJ is the greatest basketball player ever. Best offense best defense best clutch player best winner.
and best Game Showmanship plus a side story to marvel upon.
Even the hate from MJ is different! 45 pts on 23 shots is GOAT level!
Wait DA had hair this whole time? The deception 😂
Shit like leaving 45 on the board specifically is the true goat shit
MJ kept dem receipts! 😂
Damn. I just googled it. 45 pts 16/23 FG 3/4 3s. MJ is just a cut above the rest.
"I remember that bullshit" 😂 (puns too) You can't have it both ways.. if MJ is that dude then hell yeah you're gonna celebrate if you win a series against him lol
Not when he's only been back for 17 games after not having even touched a basketball for damn near two years straight. Horace and Nick were just _askin'_ for it.
Doing a great job with the podcast 👍🏽
MJ the 🐐
3:52 bro sound like a squeaky bed lmao 😂
Technically 45 AINT 23 but😂😂😂
I heard many stories about MJ that shows his greatness, but that is just another one that shows why he is the greatest basketball player ever
The only thing that could make this story better, was if Nick scored 23 that night.
Agreed. And if after the game, he passes by their locker room to tell him "You're right, Nick. 45 really isn't like 23.. It's actually about twice as much. Enjoy your summer" 😅 💀
What would’ve actually made the story better is if Nick Anderson horse, Grant were healthy in that series
this story is cooooold
We can all agree here that we never ever hear Lebron or Kobe's stories like that right ? So why the f...there's still people even debating about who's the goat??
Because kids and LeBron fans don’t know 1/2 these stories, they just watch highlights and think MJ could only dunk…they just don’t comprehend his full legacy.
So you don't know the magical numbers when LeBron passed Kareem? It was very widely discussed at the time. Look it up.
Just saw Legend of the Thunder Bully for the first time- Awesome movie
Magic was doing a lot of shit talking and got swept
Nick Anderson said nothing wrong. 45 was not like 23, he didn't lie.
So much so, that Mike went right back to 23. So thanks Nick
SUPERMAN IS IN THE BUILDING!!THE ONE AND ONLY GOAT!!!
The fact that we remember the steal is a testament of his greatness like no other
Jordan was different man i miss watching him play
I don't know if there has ever been another player fueled by get Back more than MJ.
Ja is really tryna be him😂😂
There hasn't.
😮😮😂😂😂😂😂😂😮😮 🔥 Keep telling yall, Stop playing with that man! MJ jus different!! Facts 💯
LMAOO THATS COLD!!!! MJ THE TRUTH MAN
YOU DON'T GIH DIS MAN NO FRUEL!!!
Reminds me of that 81 olives commercial
How many Leloser stories are there? Exactly!
My favorite Orlando Magic
This is why he’s THE GOAT
This is definitely something Jordan would do. He was that much of a savage.
“45 is not 23”
MJ wear 23: 45 points it is tonight
I remember that series in my teenage years very well. I didn't know that he purposely missed two free throws and took 23 shots! Is the goat's coincidence or what? Lebron might be a better overall player and physical specimen but MJ remains the 🐐 and Bron will be chasing that 👻 forever
Man this is why he is mythical figure because i watched it live, but didnt even know this , where is the debate? bron is good but he cant touch MJ
🤣🤣🤣🐐🐐🐐
1…👑 2…black 🐍. 3… black 👿🎤
Hate how they try to finish the man sentence. Lol. Let him tell the story
adjust it for inflation and that 200K is about $400,000 in today's money. imagine getting fined HALF A MILLION DOLLARS PER GAME until after the finals. in that series alone, the Bulls got fined 2 MILLION DOLLARS. and MJ didn't care!
That was play play money to Mike.. Nike was paying the fine
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Damn that was dumb.lol
Lebron better than jordog doe
Them Mj Hanes underwear 🩲 supporters getting pretty desperate tryna dethrone the king of goats … bow down 🎤 u in the kings👑 court .. and verdict is .. yo no longer relevant 😭
My brother hairline aint looking to good who doing og hair 😮
Same place his hairline was 30 years ago.
45 on 23 shots is insane… that’s not petty… that’s methodical
MJ even missed his last free throw to ensure it stays at 45!!!! 🐐🐐🐐
Let me correct that, DIABOLICAL
Damn MJ left them with 45😂. Man had intent with everything he did.
That’s how u break a man’s psyche lol
And he did it on 23 shots - MJ was on another level 😂
@@NostalgikOne and yet lebron is better right?? how does that make you feel when you see your peers say things like that?
I was the 203rd like on your post, symmetry is very cool
😉
That 45 was for Nick Anderson.
Nick talking that shit got his team ass kicked
I think it was also Grant getting carried off the court cheering
@jonathan…
Oh yes… sitting on 45 points with 2.7 seconds left in the game he got fouled after the inbound and proceeded to miss both free throws. Lol.
@@lorenzoyoung698technically he best they ass when he talked the shit,Mike just spunt the block
Yeah i guess it goes without saying "he took that personally " 😂😂
I dont see why people complain about nba players having podcast, we would never get stories like this on espn

Factz.. the Magic was my team back then.. broke my 11 yr old Heart🤣🤣 Dream cooked Shaq every game

@PIP...33 u sound clueless and its obvious
@@PIP...33 You actin like they beat the bulls 5 times, that was only 1 series.
Just watched this and then I just went and checked the internet and he finished 16/23 with 45 points.
MJ really is the GOAT for that 🐐😂
Yes. And not close.

Purposely missed his last FT to ensure he finished with 45 too…if that’s not the definition of a GOAT, idk what is!
@@NostalgikOne and don’t forget the 23 shots. 45 pts and 23 shots is crazy man😭
And 16 divided in half is 8, which is how many rings MJ would've had if those couple of hillbillies hadn't done what they did to his pops.
Thats another level...I mean....another level.
Must have felt pretty fuckin epic and surreal for players to see MJ in 23 again. It's like seeing a legendary pokemon make an appearance.
It was outstanding! I watched the game on TV, because I couldn't get tickets. Everything about that series was... special - if the Magic could close out and beat Michael Jordan it would mark their ascent to the top Eastern Conference team, but MJ showed what being competitive is about and that he was still "Agent 23" (Jim Lee did an "art card" with that name for MJ, in an Upper Deck basketball trading cards set, back in the late 1980's).
Damn, Jordan really is the GOAT. I enjoyed this one.
I love hearing these jordan stories. That '45' points after sweeping orlando is insane!

@@PIP...33 okay Pip
This is what makes MJ the GOAT… the mystique… the fear… the competitiveness… the killer
I look at things like that the same.. I don't understand why it's even gettin debated everyday
@@grandmarquice3655 BECAUSE U R DERANGED. LETS CALL KLARRY BIRD 6-0 VS JORDAN. BEWARE TELLING JORDAN DIDNT HAD HELP BECAUSE SHAQ IS 1 HOF VS BULLS 1996 WHO HAD 5 HOF.
@@PIP...33 To watch how this whole redemption series (and '95 year) unfolded in real time. . . we all understood what we as fans were watching. Yes, the Bulls acquired Rodman as the missing piece, and he was a HUGE component to Chicago sweeping Orlando and winning the title. However, it should not and does not in any way take away the significance of the moment. Remember, even though the Bulls were on that historic 72-10 run, they still had to go through Orlando, with Shaq, Penny (who was in his prime), Horace Grant, Nick Anderson, Dennis Scott, and the rest. As for MJ. . . for the current generation to claim that he's not as great as the players today, I understand. It's hard to compare players across eras. For those who watched the NBA from Kareem, then the Magic and Bird/LA vs. Boston rivalry, and the Pistons rise, there is absolutely no argument to Jordan being the goat. The fear and deference that was paid to him from his opponents, you just don't see that anymore. . . in any sport.
It must have been such a crazy feeling to know going into a game yall said some shit to Michael jordan that deeply hurt him and you’re about to see some supernatural twilight zone shit go down.
He actually missed both free throws….that’s how you know he wanted 45 in the box score.
There you go, I was looking for this correction lol
No he wasn't. he was trying to score a layup after he scored 45 and theres no awkwardness on those freethrows there isn't anything that suggests that he was missing it on purpose
@@CMCut With 1:20 to go in the game the Bulls are up 7 and Jordan tries to make a play with the shot clock running down…so on a drive he finds himself with his back to the basket so he flips the ball over his head trying to hit rim or get fouled. 1:20 is a lot of time left so of course he isn’t going to stop trying to win to instead make sure he sits at 45. The next time he touches the ball is just over 2 seconds left and that’s when he goes to the line…still sitting at 45 and Bulls about to sweep the Magic. That’s when he badly missed the free throws on purpose because he definitely liked how 45 looked and wanted Nick to never forget. Jordan doesn’t miss 2 free throws back to back and definitely never bricks them…that’s Lebron.
@@danesetner7408 So you did watch it? so he wasn't limiting his score to 45 right? if thats the case then he would not go to the basket with 1:20 left and complain about being fouled and he didnt badly missed it was his normal shot he just missed. i think you got the point or you will continue dickriding Mj?
missing both free throw is unheard of... he wants people to stare at the scoreboard and ask why is he missing it... but Nick knows the message 23 Attempts = 45points... Savage MJ.
Shot 23 times to represent his return to number 23 but left them with 45 points to remind them that 23 is 45!
😂😂 great MJ story!!
There’s only 1 GOAT. It sure isn’t LeFlop James.
45 on 23 shots! MJ like K Dot on the stat sheet SHEESH
Give Armstrong His Props.. Dude Was High Energy Off The Bench.. Dude Disappeared after His Orlando Days..

I watched the series, and at the last game when the bulls are eliminated, the camera was on MJ for a min. MJ had a fucking murderous look on his face, shit was dark looking, and I KNEW shit was going to go down the next year. Supposedly MJ told his trainer tim grover to meet him in the gym at 6 am the next day after the game to start the off season. Grover said usually he takes off two weeks after the season is over. Next year we get 72-10 and the bulls obliterate and sweep the magic in the playoffs.
NO DERANGED MJ CRIED FOR MORE HOF WHEN SHAQ BEAT HIM 1995. NAME 2ND HOF IN ORLANDO 1996 OR JORDAN IS NOBODY. DO U REMEMBER HOW BIRD SWEOT JORDAN.
72 TANKING SEASON 1995/96 MORE THAN 20 TEAMS TANKED FOR IVERSON AND BEST DRAFT CLASS EVER. I SEE U R DERANGED.
Come on man why do ppl still try to debate MJ🤣🤣
Jordan will always be the 🐐
This needs a million views!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Who else googled that stat sheet .. 😁✋🏼
Didn't have to. Watched the game live lmao
Exactly🤣🤣💪🏾💪🏾💯
That’s a fact!It was on a Monday!Memorial Day to be exact!I bought a broom 🧹 after game 3 that Saturday and took it outside and waved it in the air talking the most 💩!
@@gmoneybagz2376 lmaooooooooooo I remember it vividly. Hot asf that spring/summer, too.
I saw the highlights of that game. He had 45 pts. He “missed” the two free throws at the very end to stay at 45.
Fayetteville n c. Stand up...hometown legend Darrell (sky) Armstrong...
I remember seeing that when I was a kid, and thinking "wow how weird that he scored 45 on 23, such a coincidence!".
Narrator: It wasn't a coincidence.
Fun fact: MJ also had 45 points on his last Bulls game in Utah 😎
Sweet revenge! 🤨
And this is why MJ IS THE GOAT! His stories from his opponents are MJ being a savage every time. I love it.
Ashbrook Greenwave in da house! Crazy Darrell wasnt even known as a great basketball player in high school. He was really good but most of us (I was a sophomore his senior year) knew him as a football player and he had hops and could dunk well. It was so cool seeing him make a splash in the NBA some years later. He was always a nice dude too. ✌️
this like babe ruth type ish predicting his homer shot
Only MJ...
Jordan wants you to lose more than he wants to win
Nope. He hits a jumper with about a minute and a half left. For his 45th point, and then just misses two free throws (prob not on purpose). Great game though, but not exactly what he said.
Nope Michael Jordan only made one shot and he miss the second one. 45 was on the broad
@@territurner1407 I mean you can tell yourself that if you want.. but it's not what happened. He was 10-14 ft in the game
MJ so petty he did a make a wish and said "You want 23? I'll pay 200k a game so you could meet him"
All the GOATS were psychos.
"Ohh lawd, I would have said man y'all $%^ if you don't shut the cuff up! What is you doing?? You don't give this man no fuel!" LOLOLOL
I Love this true story!!! MJ was a psychological and mentally trained NBA Assassin a.k.a. Don`t Poke the G.O.A.T. !!!!!!😤
Watch Game 6 of the 1998 Finals, MJ scored 23 in the first half and finished with 45, I don't think that's a coincidence.
Tik tok brought me here…yall too?
Darrell is a North Carolina cat for real.
Yes he is. He sounds like a hybrid of Jerry Stackhouse and David Patten(RIP). I know DP is from South Carolina as opposed to NC.
Talk like everybody I ever met from down east lmaoooooo
If he was so mentally tough then why did Jordan actually think and believe his game was literally affected by what jersey he was wearing?? Boy, if that was LeBron!!!!
Gotta love being the teammate and find out where that smoke came from years down the road 😂
Fkn MJ was the reason Shaq went to LA. Penny Hardaway and Kobe Bryants careers couldve been very different.
Wasn't this the dude who took a layup in the dunk contest?
