Michael Jordan Famous "Con Man" Revenge game On Jeff Van Gundy and The Knicks - 51 Pts!

- Michael Jordan didn't like Jeff Van Gundy calling him a con man, and he didn't like the New York Knicks thinking they could beat the Chicago Bulls. So Jordan responded to the challenge the way he knows best, scoring 51 points | Van Gundy, in his first full season as the Knicks' coach, said recently that Jordan tries to "con" fellow NBA players into thinking he's their friend."His way is to befriend them, soften them up, try to make them feel he cares about them," Van Gundy said. "Then he goes out there and tries to destroy them. The first step as a player is to realize that and don't go for it."
The comments resurfaced in Tuesday's Chicago Tribune, where Jordan saw them.
"It was probably a tactical mistake by the coach of the Knicks to attack Michael in the press. I thought he went out and played with a vendetta, a score to settle," Bull Coach Phil Jackson said.

After Jordan reached the 51-point mark with a 20-foot, fade-away jumper over Houston--giving the Bulls an 88-81 lead with 26.7 seconds left--he yelled at Van Gundy.
"Some choice words," Jordan said. "I guess I didn't make any friends out there tonight."
Jordan said Van Gundy's comments were misguided.
"I think they were more geared to motivating his players. But I don't think, on the court, they have befriended me," said Jordan, who counts New York's Patrick Ewing and Charles Oakley as friends.
"I don't go on the court expecting to make friends. But when I leave the court, I don't take what happened on the court away from me. We're only playing a game. I don't view it as a war away from the game. If he feels like I take advantage of my friends, that's fine."
The league's all-time leader in points per game, Jordan was 18 for 30 from the floor, including five for eight from three-point range, and 10 for 11 from the line. The rest of the Bulls shot 35% from the floor, and Jordan scored 12 of the Bulls' 14 fourth-quarter points.

the reason why all the former players that are "analysts" now say that Lebron is better is bc Jordan literally destroyed all of them during their career and they're salty about it
olive garden . It’s not like these days where all the players are friends. Yes I’m sure some were friends back then but above all these guys were all rivals and went at it as if they hated each other
Lebron is Michael + Magic. Jordan did shit without Pippen
I mean he literally changed a franchise overnight and drug a team of guys you've never heard of to the playoff in an era of the greatest players ever. Lebron was able to win with loaded rosters in the most depleted conference in sports over the last ten years. Seriously what competition has there been in the east for the last decade. Literally every time a team got good enough to challenge them their star player got hurt. Rose, George, Thomas, Irving.
I don't think I've ever heard a former player say Lebron is better. Can you supply some links?
Scottie Pippen said that Lebron was a better basketball player than Michael Jordan. Is Scottie Pippen salty at MJ for giving him 6 rings?
5:25 is just a thing of beauty. How fines is that fadeway my goodness. GOAT
He scored 51 of team 88 points haha. MJ really took that personally. Poor Jeff, Jordan gave him a mouthful after. LOL 😂
Let’s hope this gets included in the Jordan edition of NBA 2K23.
LBJ couldn’t even carry MJ’s gym bag. Jordan was a warrior…James, not so much.
Its levels to this. Ppl just dont get it. Jordan is levels above
One of many reasons MJ is the G. O. A. T. and my favorite player... I remember the "con man" revenge tour
It's like when Jeff Van Gundy made those comments, Michael took it personally, it fueled the fire in him, he took offense to it and it drove his energy.
Jordan was pissed but van gandy had some truth in it . Back in the days jordan had some ways to be frinding other players of other teams. Back in the days this was not nessary a good idea to Do that
@@sammyboateng3155 Nope and neither did attacking Michael in the press.
Randy Brown. That brings back a specific memory. He was the only player on the bulls roster the year after Michael Jordan‘s second, and final retirement.
It still pisses me that the Bulls did not bring Jordan back
Calling Jordan a “conman” is like killing John wick’s dog 🐕
It's basically suicide
That's funny. "Give me your son"
@bee boo Sorry, what was your point again? I read your comment and I lost some brain cells trying to make something out of all this gibberish.
@bee boo seriously man you're comparing MJ's off court persona to his on court. If Charles called MJ on the court, MJ would not be blushing, he would fucking own him
@bee boo I can't recall too many games Charles owned Shaq. Don't get me twisted for a 6'5" guy to be one of the top 5, definitely top 10 greatest power forwards of all time (IMO that is). Much respect. But to me Shaq was more dominant, especially prime vs prime.
Pissing off mike was the best way to get 50-60 pts dropped on you that night......and I’m a knicks fan!!!! Lmao
@Jerod S
Speaking too much truth
@NonyaBusiness! ain't anyone getting in Jordan head
Not just that... it resulted in a WIN for the Bulls. Even Kobe, he could score somewhat when motivated, but not nearly like MJ, actually took his team out of the game, often losing. That's the greatness that is MJ.
And in that moment when Kyrie hit the game winning shot against the 73-9 Warriors, LeBron realized he was the greatest of all time. 😂
@NonyaBusiness! Ewing: Please shut up now, Coach.
MJ proved 3 things in this video.
He is not a con man.
He can pass.
He can shoot 3s.
Yeah but the 3 point line was closer in
@@blakeleeberggren8644 so.......its just the era
@@MrFrost009 yeah I thought about this more and if mj was just coming into the league today he probably would have a better three so idk why I said this
Blakelee Berggren
Doesn’t matter^
Every time Michael jordan took a spot up 3, he held back the force in the shot a lot. That type of; “yeah but the 3 point line was closer in” bullshit is a poor argument
Alphonsus LFA just accept the fact Jordan was a below average three point shooter and occasionally had hot streaks shooting the 3. Case closed,& sorry to tell u but the fact he shot higher with the line closer in then before that and then right after it was extended back out he shot worse immediately shuts down your case. Case closed!!!!!!
Nobody looks/plays like Jordan. He just "looks" different than any other hoops player I've ever seen.
Kobe definitely. Watch Kobe vs jazz playoffs 2009 GM 4
Kobe Bryant with Russ’s athleticism
BS my 2k player way better than MJ
It's the release
Cuz MJ is perfection, the biggest freak of all.
That final shot for 51 is an absolute gamebreaker. It conveys the message "If this was war, all of your soldiers would be dead. And they would've been killed in spectacular fashion."
"If this was war, all of your soldiers would be dead. And they would've been killed in spectacular fashion."
...with a Fu@x!#g pencil
@J DOE 2 years later it still is
He’s the reason why van Grundy became a broadcaster lol
true … but van grundy was a good coach
He is the reason Ewing, Barkley, Stockton...etc didn't win a single ring, the freaking goat
@@mamindhive they didnt win also bcoz of olajuwon
Houston won because Mike was playing baseball
rockets won the 2nd title when jordan was back with the bulls in 1995, even swept the team that eliminated jordan's team

jer bo Airness ❤️
I love how he let his game do the talking. I feel most players just go to the media or twitter to express their frustrations.
I think the frustration every other player expressed, was because, try as they might, with all their might, none of them achieved the greatness that Michael did.
Yea nowadays ppl talk more and do less
Jordan let his game do the talking... but he also talked himself.
88 total points and MJ scored 51 of them. That is crazy.
Just thinking the same. Rest of team scored 37. Crazy
in today’s game. He will be avg 40
51pts against the toughest defense in the NBA that year
Imagine how much he could average today with teams hovering around 100

That's possibly the best comment ever regarding Michael Jordan.
Good job!!
Jim Croce?
Jordan was the John Wick of basketball . The Boogeyman!!!
John Wick was the guy you sent to kill The Boogeyman
Lol yes
This is one of the reasons he's the GOAT. No one stepped up to the challenge the way he did time after time again. Any sleight made against him and he'd kill you and then remember the sleight for the rest of his life. He didn't just want to beat you. He wanted to break your will and make you cry.
And MJ is probably the only one with the skills that he could do so at will.
Well said
He just said in the interview that it wasn't that serious to him. Yeah, it pushed him like it would anyone, but in the end, he didn't take it past the basketball court. He said Oakley would try ti take his head off during the game, than have dinner together afterwards.
@@jeffalbillar7625 Exactly. Pure class while being absolutely ruthless.
The post game interview was practically baiting him to call out Jeff Van Gundy (which was obvious to all watching he was mad about) but he let HIS BASKETBALL PLAY do all the speaking that it needs, he didn't need to tell everyone how great he is, he just showed it during the game.
People might get 51 points these days, but think how tough that NY Knicks defense was - holding the Bulls to only 87 points. And Jordan got 51 of it!
@@MikeBrownLegend go find someone else to fawn over your here with you.

How about 84?

Kobe copied his moves to the closest, but still his moves are kinda stiff as compared to the Goat's gracefulness.

Sal Velasquez 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Exactly my feelings and thoughts buddy!!!!😂😂😂😂🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Sal Velasquez I’m sooooo glad there are people that think a feel the way I do about the NBA now. People think I’m a hater this n that. It’s not hating. It’s called truth. Realistically speaking. I’m not saying that the NBA donyhave talent. There is a lot of talent and athleticism. But☝🏼, the NBA does not have....... repeat.... DOES NOT HAVE HEART!! Back then the players played like if they don’t perform, it’s their lives on the line. Meaning, to make a living because they had to prove themselves to get a paycheck. They worked hard. They pushed through some injuries, sickness, etc. These clowns now take a “BREAK” because they are worth too much.🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ What a comedy. Thing is, the NBA and it’s counterparts make the league like its just entertainment. All show. No try. Just watch the allstar game and that is pure comedy.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sal Velasquez we same generation buddy no wonder we see things the same. Just turn 40 last month. My heart hurts the way sports in general is now man. These kids playing and watching now never had a good whooping on the ass.
Sal Velasquez love the talk buddy. Aloha.🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
And people Put lebron james in the same breath as MJ????? HELLLLL NAAAA. Jordan GOAT
kou moua ppl don’t young ppl do the internet and the other great knows Jordan tho goat the fact is when u go on the internet and look up who the greatest u see Jordan he is even the greatest athlete of all time
Ikr 😂 😂
I'm 35 grew up watching loving bulls and Jordan. My favorite all time and number 1 all time in my book. But to say LeBron is not on his level is crazy. You can't have
He's not and it isn't close skill wise.
@@swalker9482 tons of people watched MJ growing up. doesn't make you some expert if you think Lebrons on his level. Why exactly do you think Lebrons on his level. Because ESPN told you so? Nah man. Lebron failed to lead waay to many times to be in the same area code as MJ. He's a great player, but guess what. there's tons of other great players through NBA history that did a better job than Lebron like Tim Duncan, Kareem and Shaq.
When he yelled at VG after he put up the 51 was absolute classic. #9/11
Mj the greatest baksetball player ever to pick up a basketball
@Mitchell D stop hating
@Mitchell D Then who is the greatest?
Mitchell D probably the worst basketball take I’ve ever heard in my life
Lew Alcindor was the greatest high school and college player of all time. And then became Kareem who was the 2nd greatest NBA player. So Kareem/Lew is the greatest person to ever touch a basketball
@Mitchell D Definitely not a basketball fan.
Nobody in basketball got revenge the way Michael got revenge. NOBODY!!
Facts!!
Dwayne Austin NOBODY!
Kobe
For sure!
When it's personal.... You better be prepare to be own by Jordan
Steven Barry damn right best believe black Jesus was exist fo real
I feel so honored to have watched MJ plays hundreds of times. I wish the new generation of young people could have seen him with the Bulls.
NBA in the 90's had more of a rugby league version of Basketball than today's game. Tough era and tough players. RESPECT!
Yeah, then they started pulling out the whistles super heavy it seems, to me, in mid to late 2000’s....
One of my favorite MJ moments ever! An absolute priviledge to have watched him. Now I know what it felt like for fathers to tell their sons, they wished they would have seen Babe Ruth play. All the highlights don't even do him justice. You would only fully appreciate him if you witnessed his game it first hand. 21 years after his career ended (I don't count Wiards MJ), I am still in awe of his game.
This man's game was just DIFFERENT 🔥🔥🔥
GOAT, the greatest basketball player of all time. Not that guy that gets cramps and cries like a baby.
This a Jordan video why you bring up LeBron?
Who lebron the Goat, I do get A lot of cramps and cry
MJ not the goat...
Wilt is the GOAT
pop Basketball no, you are a dummy.
1-9 yeah we know Lebron cries lmao
Before doc rivers got that raspy ass voice 😭😭😭
This is just more proof there is no one better than Jordan. He literally destroyed the Knicks by himself because Van Gundy called him a Con Man. We have great players today, but this is the "Greatest" at his best. Just pure determination and passion, though driven by anger, lol. Today have great teams players, but they use to create teams just to beat Jordan personally in the 90's. Not the Bulls, but Jordan personally. And he beat all of them and made it look easy. Think about that during the next GOAT debate. Also remember, he left for a couple years, played baseball, came back and destroyed them all again when he changed his number back to 23 from 45, lol. I think the number 23 should be the new lucky 13
One of my favorite MJ moments. I was screaming at the tv yelling at Van Gundy
That 5:20 turn around shot was so insane!!!!! Only the GOAT can do that!!! So gracefull to watch.
5:23 Can we just take a moment to admire how amazing that fadeaway was.
Lebron will never play with as much heart as Jordan did.
True statement, the dude gave his all...
Andry Hernandez I really don’t think you’ve ever watched LeBron James play. You should try it sometime it’s pretty entertaining. I guess it doesn’t take heart to take down the winningest team in nba history while down 3-1? Yeah, no heart.
@@lnd1998 he didnt say no heart, he said not as much. and cmon everyone has seen lebron play
lnd1998 you another dumb as rocks guy.🤦🏽♂️ Did bron do it by himself? And you said one thing right. He’s entertaining. That’s it. No heart. Having heart and being entertaining is two different things you dummy. You must not have watched 80’s and 90’s ball because you clearly care about ENTERTAINMENT. Those days guys played with heart, passion, and a mindset to achieve because they had to prove themselves for a paycheck. These circus clowns are paid prior to proving themselves. That leads to laziness. Mind and body. Don’t get me wrong, LBJ is a supremely awesome bball player but no way near the mindset of an old school player. Spoiled Kids play the game now. Men played in those days with class.
@@lnd1998 yea curry fouled out for the first time ever. Bogut got hurt, green was suspended a game and kyrie literally won the fkn series for them. Or let's bring up the Finals vs Dallas when Jason Terry old ass outplayed him every single game. Foh lol. Bron ain't in same league as MJ
5:21 NASTY
I agree that was sick. Technically a travel cause he picked up the pivot foot. so Idk why people point out Lebrons travels and not MJ's but yea that move was nasty. MJ the GOAT
+Tyson Tenney I don't see him pick up his pivot after he gathers the ball until he actually goes up for the jumper though. He does jump into the back to the basket position both feet off the ground but at that point he's still technically dribbling the ball. Looks like a clean play to me
technically a travel? you blind? he only took one step. still cant see it? play with .25 speed.
May I have this dance??? 😂😂
i thought the same..
#1 rule in basketball. Never make MJ upset.
Confidence/Athletic Ability has a tendency to SPEAK for itself..the🐐
Jordan is in a league of his own. Textbook definition of a warrior. Relentless. Consistent. Intense. Passionate.
Lol I love how Mike always played coy in the post game interviews
8:23 "I did" 😂
Verce 919 that’s a pro!

MJ was so great that he scored 51 in a game that end 88-87 and not like now 130-125!Knicks had great defense in 90s but he was the GOAT
So the lesson is simple , don't make mj angry cause you pay the price 😂👍🏼
If that happened to L3-6ron he would prolly go to social media and drop 51 tweets
Nah that's actually Kevin Durant, but you tried.
for all those people still trying to say LBJ is the GOAT!!! i will slap their face . the guy was 3- 6 in the finals :) while MJ was 6-0 in the finals and played in a ULTRA INSTINCT LEVEL!! DAMN!!!!
I mean yeah finals records don't mean u a goat if that's the case Bill the goat i mean MJ is the goat just stop using that to determine the goat and also MJ never played the warriors or spurs man in a better skilled league than Jordan's

If he dominated in the 80's or 90's vs Hakeem, Shaq, Robinson, Ewing, Jabbar etc. I'd give him some respect. But he did so against only Russell, Reed and Bellamy who were top of the line centers back in the 60's

Nobody is better than Jordan. My childhood hero has never looked better. I can watch this over and over again, and it never gets old.
5:23 this ish is just iconic
I don't know how he's "lulling" them into anything. Jordan talked shit to the other team the entire game, every game.
It's not even a a bad thing. Isn't the point of the game to try to win? Van Gundy just mad because he doesn't have any "by any means necessary" competitors on his roster.
A pissed of MJ is a dangerous one, Knicks couldn't handle air jordan
True Champions of men understand when/where the game is won. In the gym (court, weights, field, mirror) not at dinner.
That dagger shot and dagger shout at NY bench and Van Gundy's face. Classic.
The Greatest!!
I'm a mj fan I was born in 1980 I saw all of his NBA games some college. Hes the best I've ever seen. With all that said it had to be hard to play along side of him he shot the ball a ton.
Great video i remember watching Michael Jordan play on the Bulls as a kid on television it was just something about him I liked my dad told me since i wasn't from Chicago that technically I couldn't be a bulls fan i was probably about 7 or somethin at the time and i hopped on the laker bandwagon ever since but it's videos like these that have me remember why I was fascinated with Jordan he proved his point out on that court all the time even if he didn't have to do it with words he did it with action put up or shut up it
The worst mistake you can make against Jordan is giving him motivation.
Once you give him that small reason he will not only beat you, he will crush you.
Patrick Ewing was probably yelling at Van Gundy after the game.
"I told you not to piss the guy off, but no."
You could put 2 hearts in LeBron and he'd never get close to MJ
This is the best edited sports reel I’ve ever seen on CZcams
exactly what I was looking for. great work
Jordan is not to be played with on or off the court. I will say it now & when I die Jordan is the greatest basketball player that played the game.
But wait! I thought Jordan couldn't shoot the three. 🤣🤣🤫 Colin Cowherd said if Jordan played now he would be Demar DeRozan. Bahahahaha. Mj , the greatest of all time.
MJ would definitely have added a 3 point game if he played today, his work ethic proves itself
awesome highlights
Goat. Period. I’m glad I’m in my 40’s and got to watch this man’s entire career.

MJ is savage. Felt like Van Gundy was gonna cry and ask "wth have I done?". 😂
An absolute savage beast! Nothing more, nothing less. Jerry West is the logo. Michael Jordan is the standard.
oh lawd have mercy 5:24
People do not understand that there was a generation of excellent basketball players who did not win the championship because of Michael Jordan. These players have hated him ever since. Especially John Stockton and Karl Mellon. Some of these players come to sports programs and say that Labron James is better than Mj just because they think that's how they hurt back the man who ruined their career.
Only an idiot will think that a 3-6 player is better than a man who has never lost any final series and has not let things get to game 7
I absolutely agreed with you.you know what,when i was younger i dont watch basketball but i am already hearing a name michael jordan who is the best and most skillfull player.nowadays,after more than 20 years and i am now watching basketball and watched mj playing time and i compare both mj and the present.this is not just a conclusion,i say to those who can read this message.nothing and no one can be goat or better than mj in basketball no matter who ever say that someone has or had surpassed him or the goat than mj unless he make a 7-0 championship games,slum dunk champiom many times,rookie mvps,season mvps,champion mvps,all star mvps,world basketball league champion mvps.dont dare campare lebron or kobe to mj coz theyre nothing.
The Goat period!!!
Jordan took EVERYTHING as a challenge...”don’t come for him....” 🤣😂🤣😂
It's hard to believe, too, that Jordan wasn't the # 1 pick when he was drafted. He was # 3.
The pick of Hakeem Olajuwon was defensible but not Sam Bowie no matter how you slice it up even though the Blazers had Drexler already and it wasn't defensible then either. It was one of those "Well, we have a shooting guard so time to get a center." Those were the days when everyone felt you had to have a center to win and it's why franchises often get stuck because they stick to old theories rather than just getting the most talented guy and if they play the same position then figure it out from there. Drexler and Jordan might now have worked great together but you would have had a great trade chip plus the best player ever combined with another all-time great shooting guard, you find a way to make it work.
@@jamesmarhen It actually might have worked, Jordan playing at point guard would have been insane, statistically at least.
@@jamesmarhen Even the Bulls wished MJ was seven feet tall.
Big men were trending back then
I don't understand, me and my best friend compete and on some occasions have gotten in heated arguments on the court playing 1 on 1 and we stopped talking to each other for a lil while yet we're still friends like idc if ur friends or teammates when u get on the court it ain't friendly on the court that's for sure. Why did VanGundy feel the need to bring up this topic I will never understand was he upset MJ was hurting his players feeling what a joke Vangudy was.
Mj is psycho. He’s looking for motivation. He even sometimes made some fake enemies to motive him. He said he’s cursed by the competitiveness. Kobe is similar. But only on court. Mj is on off court.
Best move at 5.25 vs Allen Houston who was a very good player too. Used to watch this on vhs and Jordan is the reason I learned to shoot jumpers. We all imitated his moves...just imagine being 17 on 1990. That guy changed our lives. Goat
When people say he couldn't shoot the 3 pointer...
He could do everything he wanted in the Court
Game 1 of the 1992 Finals should've ended that.
