Ridiculous - Jordan has so many signature performances that a 46 pt game with the series tied at 2-2 never even gets mentioned when you talk about his best games
Now that I remember Jordan's play I realise how great his jumper was. There's nobody today who can pull up a jumper that high, that quick, that effective while fading away.
Great edit. Look at the Faaade at 3:23. This a true fadeaway covering over 4 feet - unlike the turnarounds covering 1 foot that really should be called baby-fades. MJ is the only player ever to have had the peak athleticism with peak skill to cover that distance and hit the shot with maximum efficiency. He is also the only ever to fade left, right, up, down, backwards AND forewards with equivalent efficiency. He mastered the moving shot on top of everything else.
Dam this man is doin Clyde Drexler like he ain't Shit. And this one of the 50 greatest player's were talking about. That just goes to show how devastating Jordan really was!
@@conni70 Drexler had a nice stat line but not a great game. I remember Marv Albert saying that if you just looked at his stat line on the papers,you would assume he played great,but that wasn't the case. Grabbed some easy rebounds and didn't score his points when it mattered. Sorry btw,this comment came in late lol
@@conni70 uh, it clearly showed it in the video and the person that did this video could have edited it out. That 30/10 is impressive on it's own, but shows he got clearly outplayed when jordan scores 46pts/5rb/4a.
The common NBA fan these days did not know that Jordan shot 43 percent from 3, 53 percent fg overall and 89 from the free throw line during this finals series. I wish he would have shot the three more during his career because if he did he would have passed Kareem in scoring.
MJ was the greatest. But Scottie Pippen and Clyde the Glide in the open court were wonders to behold. Those guys were probably in the top five all time when it came to covering ground and finishing on the fast break. Right up there with Dr. J, James Worthy and Lebron. The long strides and the gliding ability made them unstoppable once they were off and running.
Chicago clearly dominated this game from start to finish. Outstanding defensive effort by the world champion Chicago Bulls and once they build an insurmountable lead they’ll lock the game up completely.
WOW!! Does this bring back good memories!! Remember how I used to tape and then watch highlights on VHS video tapes and then look and try to mimic the most minute details of Jordan from body language, to how he chewed his gum, to his tube socks and how he tied his shoe laces........funny because I believe that Kobe did the same thing..
mj was so good that he could have won 9 in a row definetly. If he did not retire those 2 years and if bulls kept goin for 1 more year. Michael was not a basket ball player he was a artist! Every year they played a song for him simply the best was right!!!
Hassan Abdallah actually it was a year & a half ( 2 years if u consider the fact that Houston won back to back titles in 1994 & 1995). He only took that time off because his father had just got killed just b4 his announcement.
Yeah. By having a super team playing in a league with a shortened 3 point line while getting guarded by a 6 ft 1 midget like Stockton who played no defense and had no defensive team selections
@@MistahUnknown Payton said stockon was way harder to guard than Kobe. Plus that Utah team made Kobe and Shaq their bitch. If MJ stayed, no Phil Jackson for the Lakers, they would have kept losing. Don't you feel stupid you minimum wage earning idiot.
@@at1212b im wondering where was the super team he was talking about, mike and Scottie was the only all stars the bulls had lol i mean rodman was a all star once when we was with detroit
Aside from Jordan's raw skill set and fundamentals, knack and flair for the game the other thing that people never really gave him much credit for was his endurance, perseverance and tenacity that he demonstrated that was unparalleled!! I mean the man hardly ever was injured, it seemed like he had a mutant gene. The only other person that comes really close to his tenacity, conditioning, and perseverance is LeBron James.
Jordan was 6 and 0 in the finals six final MVPs he was so good never let it get to a game 7 if he started on the road he won if he started at home he won if he won the regular MVP in the finals he won if somebody else he was playing against in the finals won the MVP he beat them let that marinate that dude is the goat
I hate how the announcers always tried to act like Jordan was losing his abilities. They always wanted other teams to dethrone Jordan, especially against the Utah Jazz in 97 and 98.
The defensive philosophy of the Blazers was non existent in this series. Jordan knew he was not going to get hit, bruised, chipped, smacked, bumped, or even get a mean mug from the Blazers! Jordan was allowed to get a mental rythym and the series was over. Heck, and Drexler did not match his Jordans intensity. By shoving the ball back down the Bulls throat. I like Clyde, but he failed to will his team.
I always wondered - Just HOW STUPID it is to have, whether it's cameramen, or spectators, VIPs... I don't give a fuck who they are, SOOOO FUCKING CLOSE to the court, so that the players could get injured (nevermind that they could smash them, actually CRUSH THEM, if someone like Shaq falls down on them with all of his weight!)!!!
NOW WHY is THAT MAN Magic Johnson talking about "If there be a seven game" at the end of this game with a minute left and the Bulls got a nice 10 point cushion lead and about to go up in the series 3-2 with the final two game back in Chicago.......that man was a definite hater of the success of Jordan and the dynasty of the Bulls as they we're BOUND to eclipse the Laker dynasty.
4:40 i see this trend often by these players then. including Lebron i dont see players one dribble drunk from the 3pt line like back then. They may be bigger now but in my opinion they dont move as fluidly
Ok. Since nobody posted a response to my question. I will give you the answer ( LA, Portland, Phoenix, Seattle, & they defeated Utah & Utah ( I listed Utah twice because Chicago beat them 2 years straight for the last 2 titles)
Jordan was far more efficient scorer and better scorer.. better passer defender and rebounder.. he’s stronger quicker and has 10 inches more vertical leap n waaaaaaay bigger hands... but other than that oh n he’s way more clutch according to stats
I loved this series for 2 reasons. First is put to rest the 20 idiots who didn't know that MJ was the best 2 guard and player in the league...how dumb could they have been for thinking Drexler was on Jordan's level?!?!? And second is was great beating Adleman with that gay 70's porn mustache and finally shutting up all that whining and bitching he did throughout the series. RIP City HAHAHA! Well RIP was right...Rest In Peace to your title hopes!!!
@soullessSiIence There's nobody in the game today you can hit a 15 foot jumper while not fading away. The NBA is horrible, nobody can shoot, the scores at the end of games now is equal the end of 3rd quarter scores from the 80's and early 90's. Everyone wants athletes now not basketball players.
@@75samuel75 did porter/duck/buck/ainge play in at least one asg absolutely, but pippen was top 50 all time arguably top 30, winning a chip is all about top tier talent, same reason shaq/kobe was able to beat those stacked blazer teams, jordan had as a sidekick no one else in his era had, someone good enough to win all star game mvp
Nba is rigged. Officiating crew had mission and goal to help Chicago take series lead. Look how many foul shots Jordan took compared to whole Blazers team. After Tim Donaghy it all makes sense.

It's awesome in 2018.
bahahahahahhaahahahhahahaahah
@@MistahUnknown How?
Mistah Unknown uh if u like a flopping contest with zero defense
The teams in this video shot a combined 89 free throw attempts but they " let 'em play"

I agree, Jordan's not even trying hard in these finals, just playing with the blazers. Knowing he can dominate anytime he wants. BEST EVER
that has to be one of the most idiotic things I've ever heard...you're a moron..
The best when it really counts the goat forever

The Bulls played better on the road in their first three Finals
8-1

It almost went seven.. real close but Jordan hit a dagger in game 6 n sent them home
Did anybody see that look on Mike 's face after that one shot he hit.
Nice high top Ahmad

Hill was the first person Mike had to guard
93 for sure
Of course, he misses that shot. But it's still beautiful.
how bad do YOU want it?
Damn great game
but Clyde got posterized alot in this game
7 dark charcoal aka raptors i think
how the hell not pick the 98 bro!
What is the difference between Kobe and Jordan
Jordan didn't have a dominant center like shaq

They play the exact same, only difference I see is that Jordan is not comfortable going left,
