grant was the major body in the path, jordan was right there. i thought they had em after that. pippen losing his mind and getting tossed. it was all going in the knicks favor.

This is beyond lame. Jordan goes up and almost swipes at the ball, just way too late. How the hell is that considered "not in the frame?"

Donovan looking to get a better shoe contract or something?

I have friends who try to argue this all the time. Jordan stans are just as insufferable as LeBron Stan's.

Man, I would trade the whole team to have a passer like Jay Williams to watch. Poetry.

Mitchell isn’t used to defenders physically putting their bodies on the line in the crease and help defense so Jordan not being directly under the basket means he might as well have been in a different zip code

And then Stern and the refs gifted the bulls game 5


Oak got in foul trouble so early in the game for nothing. It’s like you blinked and he was gone

MJ was selling sneakers and getting record tv ratings. They could have kicked Smith in the bawls no foul was ever getting called

It's a stupid argument, actually. I'm actually a Jordan fan, and I appreciate that he didn't go all DLee and actually get out of posterization range immediately.
A split-second earlier shift to the baseline and he probably gets that huge mitt on the ball and there is no "The dunk"...

The dunk was mostly on Grant, but hey man Jordan was in the frame and it was the 4th quarter of a playoff game by the ultimate underdog player with his left hand. That was a special moment in my young life.
