Bulls avenge the rout in game 2 Bulls 105 Cavs 96 Michael Jordan hit 13 of 27 shots for a game-high 36 points. Bulls lead series 2-1 -- Props to Ronnie K.
As much as I like MJ and the Chicago Bulls, man I gotta say seeing Brad Daugherty dunk on MJ @ 7:40 was priceless. That dunk kinda reminded me of when PJ Brown dunked on Kobe Bryant at the end on the 3rd quarter in game 4 of the 2008 NBA Finals. Sometimes even the best superstars can be caught by surprise.
Whether is was Paxson from long range, Pippen out in the open court, or MJ from 15 ft or baseline.....the bulls were always deadly. You just never knew which starter or player coming off the bench would have a break out night. MJ always demanded the very best out of his supporting cast and they all lived up to their expectations. Well..... at least 6 titles, says they did,lol. =)
it's nice to meet you and i'll say the goats are wilt chamberlain and bill russell and michael jordan wasn't quite as legendary as kareem abdul-jabbar oscar robertson wilt chamberlain and bill russell
I remember Jon Starks dunking on him at the end of Game 2 of the Knicks/Bulls 93 ECF. That was the moment it felt for me that the Knicks could win it since they grabbed a 2-0 lead and had home court advantage since they had the best record in the East…and then the Bulls won four in a row😂. That’s only one of two times the Bulls trailed 2-0 during the championship years, Indiana in either 97 or 98 is the other.
the bulls in 1991 were down 1-0 vs the lakers before winning 4-1 they were down 1-0 to the knicks in the 1992 semi finals before winning 4-3 they were down 2-0 to the knicks in the 1993 conference finals before winning 4-2 they won 4-3 over the pacers in 1998 by winning games 1 2 5 and 7 and in 1998 they trailed 1-0 to the jazz before winning 4-2
no disrespect but the 15-2 highly elite 1991 bulls would've lost to the 1980 1982 1985 and/or 1987 lakers when the elite years were still present for legend kareem abdul-jabbar
these legends stats go in this order the #1 scoring from kareem abdul-jabbar #2 scoring from michael jordan and #3 passing from magic johnson so the 1980 1982 and 1987 finals mvp should've been kareem abdul-jabbar
now looking back into jordan's prime prime it is safe to say that this guy was a lot more athletic than the prime prime lebron we are seeing now. crazy quickness and fast leaping ability.
This was back before the Gund Arena and whenever Jordan touched the ball he would constantly get booed by the crowd because of "The Shot 89". At 6:15 you see MJ had his back to the basket with Ehlo all over him, spins around Ehlo ONE dribble baseline dunk. That is pure speed.
i'm not certain why the cavs played the bulls better in the 1992 playoffs than the blazers because these rankings are #1 legend michael jordan #2 star player lenny wilkens #3 scottie pippen #4 clyde drexler #5 head coach phil jackson and #6 head coach lenny wilkens
I love basketball a lot ,whether watching or playing it,but the thing that it shouldn't have is picks/screens. I say that because it's impossible for a person to guard 2 people.Jordan is one of the greatest players barnone,no doubt,but when he hangs his tongue out,its unnecessary and a showoff move.I can't stand showoffs and screens.

The best MJ was during this 91-93 bulls season were he was very athletic and skilled. Then they've won their first three peat! GOAT

Damn he dunked on jordan
Put It on NBA TV Hardwood Classics ASAP
that shot at 6:08 is so graceful. and the baseline spin and dunk is so damn quick ! no one reads the defense better than mj.
at 7:43 was probably one of the very few times when jordan actually got dunked on.

I enjoyed the first 3 minutes of this video the most...thats how you start a game if you're the Bulls

Wow they lead 19:2
Sure, Daugherty got him that one time, but how many times has MJ dunked on Daugherty?
Brad Daugherty had that Al B. Sure line-up lol
TheRatedIX7 lol

Yoooo! That dude dunked on Michael Jordan & here all this time I'm thinking John Starks was the only one who dunked on him
Brian Horsey John Starks never dunked on Jordan.....
completely agree.
please tell me who you all feel was the most elite between the 1978 and 1980 sonics along with the 1992 cavs
Lmao ppl act like Jordan never got dunked on haha guys it happens to even the best of me
Funny to think there’s a guy from UNC on the court who was the #1 pick in his draft, and it’s not Jordan.

37 fucking Pts in the FIRST quarter!? Did the Cavs even think about playing any sort of defense!? Lol
Bulls were a bunch of showoffs that made things very difficult for the Cavaliers and other teams and the screens are so darn unnecessary.
MJ abused Ehlo.

Cleveland was another team that Jordan had to overcome in order to get his first championship. Kobe has never had to overcome anything in the NBA.
