@ Nunya Business. First full season of NBA/Ncaa bball I watched and really followed. Still remember thinking the blazers were actually gonna win game 6. Before the 4th quarter began. Because it was the last time I thought a team was gonna beat Jordan's Bulls. Even in 95 i expected them to beat Orlando.
They were ok. John starks too short and 26lbs lighter. MJ shoot over or just post fade away. Not much resistance. Plus didn't see a lot of that magical hand checking they say that would stop current NBA players lol
Man, how can u stop a guy like jordan. Not only that he's 6'6 and athletic, he got a lot of moves in arsenal. He can kill u in penetration and midrange attacks. Worse if he can hit a few 3s. You put a tall guy on him he can beat him using his quickness and footwork. You put a smaller guy on him, he can kill him on the post. And folks this was called a just personal foul 10:35 . A hard, playoff foul back in the day. He was intentionally slapped hard and was hit on the face. He didnt complain to the refs back went back and yelled at the knicks defender to show they cant beat him! Today that's an automatic flagrant 1 and can be lifted to flagrant 2 with the offensive player laying down to buy some time.
Man the way the each game is narrated before each contest by Bob Costas to set the theatrical tone is priceless. 90’s era basketball was something beautiful to watch.
Jordan was extremely exhausted after this series. After a gruelling regular season (despite the 67wins 15 losses, every team wanted to beat the champions), the Bulls would struggel in the playoffs, against the Knicks, Cavs and then the Trailblazers in the Finals.
The fact he went right to play for Olympics with really no break. Then immediately began the season after the Olympics. And went on to repeat again! Is ridiculous. From the beginning of the 91 season ( October 90 ) to the end of the 93 season in June. He only had the 91 summer off. And won the entire time with each team.
Starks was always trying to be the second Isiah Thomas which he wasn't. The whole Pat Riley coached Knicks team were trying to be the second bad boy Detroit Pistons which they were not and failed miserably 😆.
@@habib8961 you are right that they were often compared to the Chuck Dailys Pistons, they failed winning the conference because Bulls were just to good at the time not because they were bad team ,but the battles were something really memorable, it was a great Knicks team , great defense, but on the offensive end nothing like Bulls
6 Championships. If Jordan didn't "retire" to play baseball for a 1 1/2+ seasons they would have won 8 in a row. He LOVED playing NY ... they were the 80's Pistons of the 90's for him. 90's had GREAT NBA basketball ... all the way around. And the Knicks were a very, very good team.
@@fortyforfree so we're the Knicks, the Knicks were equally bigger in size of the rockets bigs in 1993 and 94,and was more physical than the rockets,the bulls were still faster and younger during that time as well
@@kylinmooney167 lol, all I see is 1on1 in today's game. It's called clear the side and run the pick n roll. Mike would tear the league up doing that shit. Mike's the only guy I've seen be able to stop and pop on a dime! In the midrange. He also hit that shot at a 50% clip, no one in the league has done that shit. Do u know how hard it is guard that? It's like Stephs 3 ball at times when he is on.
I know this is an old video and no one is going to respond, but in the off-chance someone will - how is that reverse dunk sequence at 8:14 not a travel?
Never get tired of watching Jordan highlights
Same here. I can't believe 1992 was 30 years ago.

@@nunyabusiness7927 saw this live in 1992.
Stats don’t tell the whole store. The level of skill and difficulty on MJ points is crazy!
No debate, MJ is the GOAT
Never was
That was a very physical Knicks team, no easy buckets
MJ brought unseen style to the game *
That fadaway is unstoppable
That Knicks team look aggressive and outstanding. They fought hard.
Other than the pistons late 80s the knicks in the early 90s and pacers later gave the bulls most trouble.

@@knowledgeispwr U need a short and quick guard to check Mike. He abuses tall defenders.
Look at how many offensive rebs Jordan was getting vs those big men in the paint
The NBA will never again see another dominant athletic force at SG like #23 Michael Air Jordan
Um Kobe says hello.
@Bob-te3le kobe Bryant is not even on Antman level or better than Dwade ,Drexler, and Sprewell
@@reilym979 Thanks for the laugh.
@Bob-te3le you got jokes
No one's ever played at this level. Different energy. Different animal altogether.

Golden era IMO. These kids who missed it will never know just how great it was.
I always respected that MJ was always at the top of his game. He always rose to the occasion and put on a stellar performance
Back when championships were earned not superteaned or bubbled.
This is peak MJ

4-2 is not struggling in the finals.
@@Yawdie590 4-3 against a very physical Knicks defense, along the tough regular season made Michael more human.
That and one would be a flagrant two ejections for life type foul today. Back then it was a love tap.
There's simply no debate. MJ or LJ? Please...MJ all day.
Jordan the goat
29:07 this sequence is unmatched 🐐
23:38 MJ's concentration on that turnaround 3 is insane.
6:04 Underrated defensive play
The greatest ever❤
No disrespect to 2nd 3-peat Jordan, but he ain't want nothing with 1st 3peat Jordan. The hang time on those turn around jumpers was ridiculous.
2nd 3-peat Jordan learned how to dominate without the excessive hang-time needed. #learnlife #andadjust 🐐
@@zoesh2441 2nd 3 peat was no where near 1st 3 peat
Just imagine if you were watching this on live HD TV 😱
2:55 is incredible. Especially at 6'6".
UnstoppaBull! MJ was the complete package!
At times it looks like he’s playing alone out there… I don’t know if any other player had that capability? Atleast in basketball
Jordan form is up and across
Game 7 the refs finally made NY play basketball,
Never going to see anything like Jordan again.
Kills me when they try to make Kobe or Lebron seem equal to him. Both Kobe and Lebron would crap their pants vs the Knicks defense of the 1990s SMH
THAT WAS DISCUSSING WHAT HE DID 2 NYKNICKS YO !MR.43 OUT
Starks never gave up,but he was getting abused!

THAT WAS DISRESPECTFUL HOW HE DID JHON STARKS
The defense sucks Jordan is able to go 1 on 1 with small guards cause of illegal defense rule

I wish Kobe taught it the secrets that MJ teaches him… but I guess, that will always be between them.
Jordan proved he was an all-star. He was great , as a player.
Allstar? 🤣. Not superstar? Not legend?
Goat. Black Jesus

11:08 LeBron would have flopped and stayed down for a couple minutes... might have had to leave the game.
Knicks should have won this series!
Even the Knicks don’t believe that
If the Knicks win game 7, they win the championship.
Skinny Pippen How should they have won the series vs the champs ? Knicks were huge underdogs
The new York Knicks could not beat the Chicago bulls with Michael Jordan and scottie pippen
defense also king
I was there, on my couch watching the game
here....Patrick Ewing career was over
that impossible
Pat Riley never won a playoff series against Michael Jordan lol
