Michael Jordan scores 39 points, with 11 rebs, and 4 assists to lead the Bulls to their 5th title in 7 years. Scottie Pippen adds 23 points, 7 rebs, 2 steals and 3 blocks. Steve Kerr hit the game winner with 5 seconds left to go. - Sport
That last play is one of the best in NBA history, from the steal, to the roll pass, to the dunk. Legendary
Michael Jimenez Toni got a piece from that inbound pass. The best inbound passer - defender.
Whose the guy that steals the ball? Is that Michael or Rodman?
@@jaimeescobanas4440 its jordan
@@jaimeescobanas4440 If you're talking about the last play of the game, it's Pippen. 9:42 you'd see 33 on the back. 9:43 Marv Albert says "Pippen steals the ball! Rolls it to Kukoc!"
His last shot as a Bull in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals, his shot over Craig Ehlo, the switch from left to right handed layup, the Flu game in the Finals. Michael Jordan has some of the most iconic moments in the history of sports, not just the NBA.
Jordan giving Scottie his credit is pure class.
speacial
He sure deserves it..in my opinion he was highly underrated
mj gives scottie credit, but the jordan jockers dont give scottie credit 😢✋
@@dynamic6645 facts
He sure was underrated. I loved SP graciousness, style and finesse on the court. And always got the job done.
I also love how Jordan praises Pippen during the award ceremony. Kills me every time.
I wonder if he really gave him a car lol
@@leannefresquez3490 maybe he did based from what their earning is just a piece of cake
Lebron James would never praise any teammates on his championship wins. Look at Kyrie in 2016 finals averaged 27ppg in those finals and Lebron James went off and said that finals made him the goat lol.
Leanne Fresquez i think it was "call" as in called the finals mvp lol
Lmao Pippen was horrible im this series compared to how he usually plays. KUKOC is the reason why they won this series.
Jordan & Pippen, man Both fed off each other and it resulted in six NBA titles in six tries, never once playing in a Finals Game 7. Both were elite defenders and even better competitors who pushed each other to become the best. When it comes to the greatest NBA duos of all time, look no further than 23 & 33 in Chicago!!
Yup😀. MJ was that physical and mental player. SP was that gracious player, I loved his style and finesse on the court.
The fact there both top 10 in steals history
Dynamic Duo🦸♂️🦸🏀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

90s bulls. Jordan and Pippen best duo of all time!!
The NBA on NBC intro gave me chills!!! OMG I miss these days! Marv Albert on commentary. The Bulls starting lineup theme, Michael, Scottie, Phil.......Man nothing like it ever!!!
I felt the exact same way
This is what is lacking in today's NBA, the excitement. Now all they care about is only money
I agree NBA on NBC was the best! The build they had to the game is nothing like today. People say I'm living in the past oh well don't care. 80's and 90's ball was the best! Being in Chicago my bulls did they thing epic season and most definitely epic playoffs.... On NBC!
Calm Killer aaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAaaaaand now the starting line up for the CHICAGO BUUUUUUULSSSS! Storyline of my childhood.
i had to sign into my accnt to respond to u on my momma the intro gave me chills as well. i remember this like it was yesterday.
Scottie pippen is the most underrated basketball player of all time
I agree
He is ranked top 50 all time but yeah...anyone would be overshadowed if they played with the great Michael Jordan.
chris marte dude, he is a top 50 player of all time. How is he underrated to you?
I would say Moses Malone
Cuz he played w the GOAT
Last action, when Scottie threw himself on the floor and pass Kukoc for dunk, was icing on the cake.
I love this game!
The 90s Bulls had countless amazing defensive plays to seal playoff games just like this, without which they would've lost the game. It was rarely ever just the memorable shot that did it. It wasn't always to do with Jordan, but in a way it was because he tolerated nothing less than greatness from everyone around him. The effort on all of these plays comes from Jordan rubbing off on everyone. That's the difference between him and everyone else. He's the GOAT, without question.
I got the chills when Toni dunked it. I remember jumping in the air screaming like warrior animal when that happened. Great memories.
steven frederick I remember this game also, even though I’m not from Chicago, but MJ has been my favorite player back in the 90’s, 6-0 in the finals 🐐 23MJ
I jumped so high my knuckles grazed the ceiling in my apartment. I was screaming and bleeding and drunk and high as hell with all my college friends 😂
Great summer 👍
Haha what an end to a game like!
I was watching this and the 98 finals on TV at night/early morning in Poland, where I’m from. In the 90s in this part of the world everyone was playing basketball and wanted to be MJ. I wanted to be Kukoc. He always seemed underrated to me.
18 years later, Steve Kerr is back in the Finals...as a head coach.
taurusve and won! He's got the heart of a champion.
taurusve as a rookie head coach
KoachKrab127 but he came back and beat him
And then he became the first head coach to ever blow a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals...
Greysen Gagné And then he got revenge
i miss the old NBA music
Me too. Hope in todays NBA it should same sound as it was before
jeffb1988 didn't know they had new music.
John Tesh!
And I miss everything of the 80-90s nba
Jordan is a legend for letting everybody know Scottie is Super underrated under his shadow
Dont forget, that Utah was a really good team. I think, the best team that never won a championship.
The Greatest Finesser Utah Jazz are the best team in nba history to not win a championship
Yeah 93-96 Orlando Magic too. Shaq with Penny never win a ring
Lol. '96 SuperSonics are just as greater, if not better than all those teams.
@Mike Lopez you are so right" The two teams on the east they had to deal with to go to the finals
Shannon Anderson
it will never be that cinematic again,
Damn Kerr fucking splashed the shit out of that shot
R Bernard The shot almost did not touch the net.perfect!
Pippen is the only guy that could make that steal at the end.
+Johnny Polo John Havelichek (spelling?)
+Mst3kfanatic1 Havlicek*. Yeah Havlicek could have make that steal but that's about it. I don't see another guy with that amount of tremendous anticipation, coordination, wingspan, endurance and decision making ability other than Pippen and Havlicek to pull that off when stakes are this high.
Johnny Polo ummmmm fucking L lol, LeBron, Leonard, Kobe, Kidd, Rondo, Payton, Horry, Cooper, Isiah, McGrady, Wade, Davis, Westbrook and many several others could've done this
@@waylenwaddlefinsup9876 not when it mattered
Ulysses432 Read my comment above dumbass Leonard did it last season. You obviously can’t read tho because you’re a dumbass. There is no gap in my argument
THE LAST 5 SEC OF THE GAME GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS & CHILLS!!!
Anthony Niroshan lie
Yes indeed
Everybody leaves kukoc out of them great bulls teams Toni was huge coming in the games filling the score role for Scottie and mike
Doug Fresh44 Pippen repeatedly said kukoc deserves HOF recently.
Toni KUKOC is main reason why the bulls even pulled through in this series. He had 31 points in game 5 when Pippen had a massive slump and even Jordan was arguably playing worse the usual. Even the last shot of game 6 was drawn up for Toni, and MJ ended up taking it .. if KUKOC took that shot no game 6. Now game 6 Toni bailed them out again being the only other player besides mike in double figures which was 15 points (52% of the bulls offence) he was crucial in the bulls second 3peat.
@@xxxxxJAYMILLZxxxxxxx they won’t give Kukoc credit like how Rodman completely dominated the boards and clamped up Shawn Kemp in 96.
Toni was a decent defender as well. Awarded Sixth Man honor in 1996.
The Bulls always had the White boy who would make the open jumper in clutch times.
Arch Hades yes like #paxson
Because the players played within the system. Unlike someone today who plays hero ball and gets his teammates labeled as 'trash'. 😂
Kerr, paxson.... i agree !
susan dela pena because that guy wants all the glory but when they fail, it’s his teammates fault 😂
Yea Kerr wasn't just a shooter / avg player
He was a champ
Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time
Hard to believe this was 20 years ago today. Time sure does fly.
M K so does Jordan
About to be 23
It’s been 23 years by now and the Goat number is 23 as well ..... what a catch ha
You hear the first few notes of the NBC intro music ... and it’s like a flood of nostalgia.
Scottie should watch that ending, especially with all the uncalled for shots he takes at the 🐐
best ending to an NBA FINALS ever listen to that crowd.
Jordan the best player of all time
Lebron cant win record MJ
And lebron not star NBA in 90th
Mj most ispiring in NBA in 90th when mj break in NBA all player NBA want Mj play again
And MJ still champions with bulls
39 likes. Jordan scores 39 in the title clinching game!

Lewtoons I second that emotion
Scottie did everything in key moments and MJ well MJ is just a fucking monster, having those two guys in a team you dont need a dominant big man
HOLY SHIT PIPPEN WITH THE HUGE PLAY
This is prob my favourite of all the Bulls championships. The way it ended, in Chicago, and the interview with Scottie and MJ afterwards....its as awesome as Legendary gets!!
Bulls were a great organization during the 90's. Great coaches, and players (Phil, jordan, pippen, kukoc, kerr, Rodman, Longley) that played together like a team. Beautiful chemistry.. Have not seen any other team accomplish consistent success the way they have since I was a young boy. Honor to watch
I think one team comes in mind and that is the spurs of course they didn't dominate like the bulls did through the 90's but I think they can sort of relate a bit
+Issacc Martinez
yep, i think Pop has like 10 or 11 maybe? straight season with 50+ wins on the season
warriors
Warriors
Spurs is a great team in my opinion and gsw, but aside those two teams, free agents made the nba look like a trading system as player to players trade to form superteams.. Against other superteams.. No more consistent team who sticks one for better or for worse! Love the 90s game! Their the best bball nba of all time!
Best NBA's team ever without any doubt

I’m a Celtics fan, but no: this was the greatest team ever.

@@michaelterrell2108 nope. they are fishing now
Even though the '98 Finals is more famous, to me this was a better series. I'd say this might be one of the best NBA Finals ever played between two of the best teams in history. Each team traded 11-point wins and the other 4 games came down to the final buzzer. Plus, unlike '98, this series was tied 2-2 so there wasn't that inevitability of a series that is 3-1.
My lovely best defence Dennis Rodman and also my offence goat Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen
80's and 90's were the best decades of the Nba. Most of the teams had their own allstar players, there were team rivalries and competitiveness was on a different level. Now look at the nba today, all-stars are bunched up in 5-10 teams and finalists are easily predictable(for e.g. Cavs and Gsw). I'm a millenial but I still prefer the classics.
I agree 100%. 90s BBall was on another level. They earned their championships. Not saying teams today don’t earn theirs. They just worked harder for them back then.
Tony B the dudes back then weren’t that great compared to now the bulls were literally a superteam
@@kalix975 bulls definitely bot a super team lmao
Ammar Napata compared to the league back then bruh nobody was even close to the bulls in the 90s no matter how much they try to prop the pacers and knicks up
@@kalix975 uh no the bulls were not no damn super team try again lol 😂 it’s ok we get it Lebron is ur idol but come on now.
Jordan for three, yes!!! gotta love Marv Albert...
Memory can be funny. i would have sworn that Kerr's bucket was the last scored in the game. Forgot all about Kukoc's dunk.
That opening sounds already make me cry for that all good days.
Same as me to hear that intro sounds I remember the old days makes me cry and excited
I got the shoes on Pippen feet. sure a Pippen fan.
Tristan Davis lie
Uptempos?
Me too bro. Wear em all the time
The last play by Pippen is among the top 5, maybe top 3 clutch plays in NBA history. But it is rarely mentioned by media. It just shows how much Pippen is underrated.
Greatest team ever!!!! Man this brings back memories Chicago was an unstoppable force in the 90s GOAT!!!
#LongleyFam
The chicago fans are the best
Roger Laboy lie
@@boma2484 bite me
I mean they have the highest attendence record but I think the Sonic's had the loudest fans
This is real NBA.
There is no way you could have wanted any other team to win during this time. The Bulls were just too perfect and iconic!
Man, the United Center (and before that, Chicago Stadium) used to ROCK back then!

I got goosebumps by the opening music the NBA on NBC.
Me too. Hope in todays NBA it should the same intro music.
I could still hear it when I was a kid, my uncle is a die hard basketball fan and he would always watch the NBA.
Pippen was straight up abusing Hornacek!! Lol dude had zero chance to stop Pip lmao 🤣
Juice 730 Dude was just bullying him with fouls.
9:00 Just heard Kerr talk about this play where Jordan knew he would get double teamed because earlier in the game they did the same thing, Stockton stole the ball from him, he told Kerr to be ready.
I love the love with Scottie and Jordan. That's why they're just amazing.
Damn I forgot the bulls played the jazz in 97 finals too
Legendary games
The NBC intro never gets old....Bill Walton's know-it-all attitude however never ceases to get very old, very fast.
I loved when Bill Walton and Steve “Snapper” Jones (R.I.P) used to work together. They were so funny!
dat nba on nbc theme song was the best!!!!!!
You and MJ are the greatest players in the basketball history and you really inspire the new generations until today to love this game
Thank you
The memories and nostalgia are just dripping here. Thank you so much for the upload.
I'm so happy i watched this games back in the day, and i'm from Chile!
I love the move with pippen rolled that ball to tony like come on man here. And then he dunked the shit out of it. So great!
This is Beyond Amazing. This that type of BBall that will have you crying tears of joy because it was so good ❤️....The Goosebumps of the 90s....Basketball just ain’t this good no more.
It was always amazing to watch Jordan improve his fundamentals as his body naturally succumbed to age. Wizards Jordan had some of the best post play and footwork ever, bordering on Hakeem level. Just a fundamentally sound player. I’d love to be able to put old Jordan’s mind into 87 Jordan’s body and see what happens.
Scottie- we brought it back home for number 5!
Mj- Yesss sir ...
Man, imagine if we could go back and relive all of those wins. I still remember where I was for each championship win of this monster team. Those final plays are still exciting. Makes me hate the passage of time.
Steve kerr ass wasnt no joke he was a big part of those championships 96, 97 he had the hot hand him and kukoc. I loved them as a team period cuz scottie pippen was ill to along with jordan. He didnt just win those rings alone but he was just a great player mj was amazing i will give him that. Anybody who played against him got balled on at least once
I was 10 years old back then, some beautiful nostalgic videos 😢 the reason we fell in love with this game.
the greatest big 3 who ever played.
Rodman. Pippen. and Jordan.
Jordan the best ever
This was Scottie Pippen’s Year🔥
When i see this game.bring back old memories! Salute chicago bulls! My all time favorite NBA team
Thanks for putting these videos online. Growing up a Bulls fan during the 90s, their dominance was common place and expected. Now that I'm older, I can truly understand the greatness of Michael Jordan and the entire Chicago Bulls team during their championship runs.
Better times!!
Honestly play the NBA on NBC theme song at my funeral
Nobody in sports, period, interviewed like Michael. He was flawless. Always about the game and his team.
Thank you, this brings back so many memories. I was 15 and in 10th grade when this game happened. Seeing the Bulls in the 90s was must watch tv.
i love all of you guys!!!
Waoo que emocion. Por tantos años ninguno pudo con ellos. Momentos gloriosos. Los mejores
I never get bored...Chicago Bulls always gonna be my Fav team, MJ, SCOTTIE n RODMAN are my Fav players all times
Congratulations Chicago Bull's,... I love all of you guys,..God bless Always,...👊👊👊👊👊👊❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪💪👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a beautiful, perfect ending to the game! I can't really imagine what it must have been like to see it live!
Agreed! We watched this game and all the other bulls championship games and they were just amazing. Specially being from Chicago
Greatest fuckin team ever!!! Followed by the greatest ever MJ, and PIP#Thebulls....
26yrs ago and i am still watching but boy this was just an amazing damn game happy 2023 to you all
The most magical time in all of sports IMO. Watching the Bulls dominate the 90's the way they did...And of course being able to watch The greatest of All-time! Just a beautiful time in sport's history!
God I miss THIS Bulls team!! :)
The Bulls are just different... with this lineup, they would still dominate and be champions in today's rules... i mean seriously, who would defend MJ, Pippen and Kukoc in a free flowing game???? The Warriors??? Cmon please...
still gives me goose bumps now, the best game of basketball i have ever seen.
While I was. sitting around playing Super Mario SNES, greatness was taking place. Thanks Scottie for the upload 👍
The real big three
Dickey simpkins, jud buechler, and Jack Haley?
Andy Kilker
Westbrick, Melo, Playoff P
I miss the old NBA music
the best years of the NBA and Chicago Bulls!
I'm so happy, i sew these games in that time. I say "I Love This Game".
MJ acknowledged Pippen and called him MVP.
On the other hand, Kyrie hit the 3 and Lebron claimed he's the GOAT. Same with KD took all the credits after Curry and his team worked their asses off to beat the cavs. lol
This was probably one of the most exciting NBA Finals series ever. If you see the score either teams won by 2, 6, 1, I mean, was so competitive. I am a die hard Jazz fan but this game 6 was just horrible to watch. We had a chance to tie series again but what da hell John Stockton wanted to pass when the game was on the line to a rookie Shandon Anderson??? WTF! And why B.Russell wanted to pass to him afterwards? But truth to be told, if then had replays Pippen`s touch on rim during Anderson`s shot would gave us the 2 pt lead. And why everyone says Flu game 5 when everybody knows we put poison on MJ`s pizza. No flu but stomach problems which is way worst. First time I ever saw a black bball be palid.
So much happynes so much energy!!!! Thanks for so many many great times of great basketball!!!Jordan Pippen Rodman Harper Kukoc Luck Steve.. and all the benchand the great coach!!!
My favorites dou players in the planet
good ol' days, when the game was exciting...many of those teams could have won the ch'ship....great competition...nowadays somehow u know who's gonna win!
You ain't lying.... Back then I watched my bulls from start to finish. Today NBA I just catch the highlight's on ESPN. I still watch my bulls. But back you had a lot of teams that had some great games and teams.
So you watch basketball? American basketball? Have you heard the word two faced? There is another word for you but you wouldn't understand it's meaning.

Kels3618 Keljo Speaking not to you but ms sth sth,best..
Why don't you make a prediction who is gonna win this year and let's see if you're right in June.
amazing steal at the end by Scottie wow
I remember watching this back when the reception of tvs were really bad, but I was sure it has some time left on the clock lol.... I was still so happy we had that win against he Jazz team... Man I love my Bulls :D heheh
Still get goosebumps watching this now. My favorite ever ending to a championship.
No flops MJ and the gang do not have to resort to such crappy tactics like the false king in L.A.
amazing decade for basketball. lots of super teams and potential champions that could rival the Bulls. being a Bulls fan, I have to admit that the Bulls aren't the most stacked-up team in the NBA, but have the best chemistry. that's what made them dangerous. the top 8 seeds were really strong teams back then unlike now where every team is just barely making it to the playoffs via quotient system. the Knicks, Magic, Heat, Sonics, Utah and Rockets of the 90's were ridiculously strong and would easily beat the previous champions for the past few years. that's how competitive the 90's were. I would say this is the reason why Lebron should not be even put in the equation. poor competition and weak conference. Lebron can't even win against a lowly team like the Warriors, no offense.
you only thinking of the east. West 1-8 is just as good if not better than the East 1-8 in the 90s
nope, read my post again.
Green Maverick I see your point they had great teams back then. but I doubt either conference had all 8 teams winning 50 games like the west has these days. Yes the East isn't as it used to be but the west had gotten better
Let The Game Begin! Every time I listen to the NBA on NBC Opening Theme! Goosebumps and a smirk!
Here in Chicago everybody was glued to the TV for this game. When Kerr hit that shot my house went crazy lol! Great times👍
