Clyde Drexler's 17 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists would help the Rockets emerge victorious over Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and the Chicago Bulls.
I remember this game perfectly. It was an NBA on NBC game. These 2 were the heavy favorites at the time to meet in the finals. A shame it didn't happen. This was the finals that all us 90's fans wanted to watch.
@@user-fv2sz2wi4w Stern robbed me of Knicks Bulls that year the Knicks was gonna beat Jordan but if they didn't Houston was gonna beat Jordan but Miami and Utah was easier for Jordan
No matter who You prefer or I between this two Giant of the Game , for me Drexler vs Jordan is the one of the best battle ever. We can see Clyde is one of the rare players who could make us watch MJ on pressure
This is a prime example of what Michael Jordan was without Rodman or Horace Grant. Great player but needed other great players to win. The only difference between him and other great players was the NBA needed a golden child and decided it would be him. He got all the media hype (not to mention the phantom calls from the referees)
And I'm sure Jordan still ended the season via more accolades and ahead of Drexler in PPG? Worry about D Wade or Iverson those are Drexlers actual area. 23 red there's nothing to talk about.
@@Glidelights lol, the internet is so overloaded with Jordan highlights, that people really believe he never had bad games! Some of us that was there to witness it know he had his off nights. But we also know, most nights, he was a superhero, lol. But even they can take an L every now and then.

Jordan and Drexler look like brothers almost. And they both have so many similarities it's incredible.
The NBA Finals we never got to see

2:32 Jordan looks at Drexler.
Good evening my friend revendo amigos a lendas do passado.past American basket plazer sempre nba
Jordan ended with 26 points, 14 rebounds, and 5 assists, shooting only .320 from the field.
It was also the same game when Hakeem accidentally elbowed Scottie Pippen in the mouth.
Obviously, the Glider had much more options think I am
The same game when Michael Jordan tried to trash talk Hakeem Olajuwon after the Rockets made 8 consecutive baskets.
Jordan always said Drexler had just as much talent as himself and often times better then him.
Glide always beat MJ straight up.
😂😂😂😂😂
Youre crazy
Um.... guess you completely missed the 92' playoffs then.
Lol delusional.
MJ owned the glide 1-1 iso every time.
And I'm sure Jordan still ended the season via more accolades and ahead of Drexler in PPG? Worry about D Wade or Iverson those are Drexlers actual area. 23 red there's nothing to talk about.
No need to get defensive just because someone had a great game against MJ… this just proves that he had great competition
This comment reeks of insecurity. I think Jordan is the GOAT, but in this particular game, he was not very good.

@@depannist MJ has never admitted that each and every game of his career was perfect.
Mj fans…. Pitiful baby’s
Jordan 6 rings Drexler 0
Should we tell him? 😂
Drexler won one
😂😂
Tell me you don't know anything about basketball without telling me you don't know anything about basketball.
Drexler also played in two finals in Portland with mediocre teams.
