This kinda game really quintessential Jordan. Making plays on both sides of the ball in crunchtime. He did that until he was on his last legs during the 2nd 3peat. "That's what greatness is all about. You gotta want the ball in crunchtime." BTW, those late 80's Knicks teams were lowkey stacked. And way ahead of their time in terms of style
yes. GOAT at 35 yrs of age needed to save that energy for offensive load thanks to pippens injury and shenanigans. Today's NBA fans just dont understand how unprofessional Pippen was in 1998 season. He was sabotaging the team chemistry just for a trade. I think 1994 MJ baseball made his body heavy in 2nd 3-peat. He had big shoulders and heavier legs thanks for baseball muscles. 1995 comeback season, he used up all his athleticism for remaining games and playoffs at age 32. that was the last MJ who played all out despite lack of conditioning. 33 yrs old MJ was heavier, getting winded, couldnt chase on defenses as he was clearly passed his prime and baseball heavy legs did not help either. reason, that 2nd 3-peat is extra, extra special. 1998, 35 yrs GOAT was done. Pippen and Krause sabotaging the team, you got very old team, opponents got way better both UTAH and INDIANA. I remember telling my friends in 1998 EC finals vs Pacers, game 6 when MJ fell. I was like. 5 rings are great. 3peat, repeat isnt bad at all. so glad, MJ did not had to play two game 7s in 1998 season, They barely escaped pacers. Pippens back was done. cant imagine winning Game 7 in utah. MJ knew it and that is when GOAT happened in Game 6.
Those Knicks teams were very good 88-91... Then 92-95 they were great. 96, very good. 97 Great, 98 good, 99 very good to great and 00 very very good. Never enough tho. Got really close numerous times consistently and beat alot of good playoff teams and dominated a few

Still To This Day Nobody In NBA Gotten 10 Steals In A Single Game. My God!!! When The Announcer Introduced Michael Air Jordan To The Court. It Was Just As Loud Or Louder At The 75 Great Players Celebration
WTH?!!! That was thee most aggressive, intense, unbelievably hardcore basketball game I've ever seen!! My God man... The players walked off the court like they just left the Octagon!! Wow. Basketball was so fun to watch back then, it almost brings tears to your eyes.
Yes,I agree back then, excitement rocked plus we get a chance to see some the other players skills.I didn't no Mark Jackson was such a great defender, ofcourse MJ was the thriller.

Not true. Looks like 17 have 10 and Kendall Gill had 11.
