RIP KOBE, you’ll be greatly missed
What an intensity! The players are so fired up, the fans are so fired up, the commentators are so fired up. Deym! This is 90s basketball at its finest. Defintely the greatest era in the NBA.
+DaSonic1 the best players seemed that much better for that very reason
+Vincent Zumel 80s>90s
+Vincent Zumel yeah eye remember watch'n this game..this junt waz tha sh!t
+ninefive naw I think the 90s they were more polishe
Kobe can't hit free throws, but Rodman does it effortless
.
I wish the NBA was more like this today
We all do. Unfortunately, the era of the legends has ended.
Maybe we just became older)
Chris Flores me too
Too many 3's now a days
you know how to speak pls speak more
I remember this game. Absolutely amazing. Jordan scored 30, Pip scored 35, and Kukoc had 31. I don't know how many times there have been teammates who scored 30-30-30, but this is the only time I remember seeing it. The Bulls let the Lakers know that you guys may be the team of tomorrow, but we're still the team of today.
+Tom Mattson Bulls generally had a hard time against the Lakers. An older team generally has a harder time against a more physical team. But if they played in the playoffs, the Bulls would have spanked the Lakers much like the way Utah did, who didn't do that well as well against the Lakers in the regular season.
+at1212 b that bulls team was a true championship team.they had big balls.not in a gay way
+Joel Villarreal well maybe rodman....
+at1212 b . This was the '96 Bulls whose record just got broken, 20 years later, by Golden State. The Bulls went on to win 6 championships from starting in '96. The '96 Lakers were not getting passed the Bulls no matter how tough they were.
MrSupernova111 Hmm, this was the 96-97 Bulls Team (69 win). They were on their way for 5 championships that season. They won their first in the 1990-91 season. The 95-96 team, Kobe wasn't in the NBA and Shaq was with the Magic.
Everything Jordan did to kobe he absorbed and remembered and added to his arsenal for later use. Kobe was the ideal student. In some cases he seemed to invite certain scenarios just to see, up close, how Jordan would handle it. Kobe is one of the Great minds in the history of the game. And he took advantage of having access to the NBA God that is Michael Jordan.
Kobe Is Also An Hard Worker
rest in peace to the mamba…
Golden age of NBA.
Kobe's mind was messed up at the end of this game! He had never seen anything like this in his life. I believe this set his standard of excellence and made him strive so hard.
Not yet, check out the four airballs he threw against the Jazz in a huge playoff game in 1997.
Oh give me a break. I know Im not going get a reply from a three year old comment. But theres nothing that was ever reported, admitted or said in any way shape or form that Kobe had never seen anything like it in his life. You homers guys are seriously delusional.
I happen to have this game. Kobe went at Jordan whenever he got the chance which wasn't often Due to stubborn Del and the rest of the old school NBA being hardcore about their seniority back in those days before the influx of high schoolers and taking shit slow. That was his mistake. Kobe was NOT in awe as you'd like to believe. Seriously you guys treat Jordan as if hes Jesus.
Btw the officiating in this game was HORRENDOUS and grossly one sided (90s status quo: Jordan must win because MJ was making NBA a global product. which had some truth to it but i digress). Campbell was getting assaulted by longley (not literally but you get my point) while he was getting ticky tack and phantom calls. Even Hubie Brown the commenter was pointing it out (this was before NBA sent memo to evry organization and media that they werent allowed to talk about bad officiating on tv anymore).
And he became better than Jordan.. why does people act like Jordan was so ahead of everyone and treat him like a God.. when in terms of basketball skill Kobe stomps him
@DeWayne Phillips I aint trynna be like anyone lol.. im just tellin that MJ aint a God.. his skills was average
@@drlight6677 Yeah Kobe may have thrown up some airballs at the end of that playoff game against the Jazz but i remember thinking it took guts for a 18 year old to take those shots in a playoff game when the other guys on the Lakers wouldn't. I knew then that this kid was going to be good and he would soon be making those shots in crunch time as he got more experience. Even at that age you can tell the players who want the ball when it counts and those who don't. You can't teach that.
Bulls were an absolute nightmare in the 90's....pippen jordan and Rodman made everyone on the team feel like they were better than they were.
Pippen just smiling everytime one of his guys tries to start a fight. Love it
Wow.. Rookie Kobe misses clutch free throws, Van Exel couldn't miss, Toni Kukoc lighting Shaq up repeatedly.. I miss the 90's.
Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hartsickdisciple The 90's was the shit. Everything was better during that time!
The 90's basketball was amazing! Miss watching the Bulls on WGN with Jordan back then, like watching a playoff game everytime. Especially when the Bulls went up against Shaq and Penny a year before this.
That was the best replay of a game I've seen in years.
I’ve never seen someone so entertaining as Nick van Excel! And Toni Kukoc draining 3’s like a madman??? Awesome!
Kukoc easily one of the top 5 NBA European ever
This was a great game. Coming back from 16 to win.
R.I.P. Kobe Bryant
Now that was a game, havent seen one like that with the Bulls
in decades
So glad I got to watch Michael Jordan. So many kids wear 23 and never got a chance to see him live. But thanks to RUclips, you can catch a glimpse of him.
Rodman making free throws late game and Kobe misses . Didn't even remember this.
A lot of people also don't remember during a playoff game vs Knicks Rodman drove down the lane and kicked out to Bill Wennington for the game winner.
And all the Kobetards forget that late in games Shaq was actually clutch when it came to free throws. They have this myth that in the 4th Shaq always sat out and Kobe took over by himself.
Rodman 2 points, 17 rebounds. very useful.
Are you being sarcastic because 17 rebounds is incredibly impressive...
really useful. no sarcasm intended. not to mention his defensive presence
Akhil Patel not really considering it's the only thing on his stat line.
jack mehoff LOL Rodman is one of the greatest rebounders of all time. You clearly must be 10 years old to not know or acknowledge how valuable he was to the team. Not to mention his clever tenacity. He has broken many records in rebounding throughout his career. The man was a defensive legend. Plus, 17 rebounds means he denied between 34 to 51 points to the other team and helped his own team score up to a potential of 51 (assuming they shot and scored only 3's from each of his rebounds). You're a special kind of stupid son.
he broke rebounding records? haha. see Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell. Rebounds don't mean denial unless they were offensive which gives another opportunity. You're a chump.
Man i miss the old NBA . This shit sent chills up my spine watching again. Real basketball
same for me bro and then after the games , hit the park and play for another 4 05 5 hours screaming out the name of your fav player with every jumper u take
Kukoc TWICE a three!!! in shaq's FACE! I've watched this game over and over and will never get tired of it!
2 points, 18 rebounds. What a player, what an athlete, what a man. Dennis Rodman
When you realize Rodman can shoot and play, that timeout was so clutch
Real Basketball! I went to high school with Van Axel, He was great then too! I miss the 80's and 90's Basketball.
MICHAEL JORDAN....THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME
Who's here after hearing about Kobe. Rip #24 #8
I was in my teens when Kobe came in the league, comparing mj vs kobe caused fights between friends! haha mj still GOAT!
+Kito C Kobe Had His Own Video Games During The 90's
I remember this game. I thought for sure LAL would win. Tony Kukoc was the hero of this game and the reason they won. Despite the title of the video, MJ struggled and Kobe wasn't a factor as he played less than 10 mins. Van Exel was a killer in this game. Pippen had a great game. Kukoc already mentioned. MJ got his points. Rodman had 18 boards and could still defend Shaq.
Yup the Lakers Still would have Won this game & the Bulls Still have the Best Winning Record in the 90's
During the Final Years of the Millennials era 1981-1996 The GREATEST DECADE EVER.
What an epic game with many epic moments:
Van-exel hitting everything.
Kukoc getting on fire.
At 05:03 referee slips and falls.
At 06:35 this is how you construct a wall. Back then it was called defense.
At 08:25 Jordan speeds-up to guard his man, but slips, and yet, he made Jones lose the ball delaying the last shot and making them miss.
At 10:00 Absolutely no helping the other team.
At 11:22 Pippen and Jordan intelligently stopping Rodman to avoid a technical.
At 11:48 some random angry fan how probably call-in sick the next day of work.
At the end Rodman got 18 rebounds and just 2 very important points.
8:25 jordan gets broke*
Strongest Bulls ever! MJ 4 LIFE
MC CABE I would've love to see prime kobe and shaq duo vs those bulls though !!!!
It's amazing how the Chicago bulld come back from a 19-20 point lead by the LA Lakers what a game
What people don’t realize about MJs greatness is he didn’t over complicated his reads on offense. He took what you gave him. And he was impeccably efficient. There’s no wasted movement. The margin of error was so small for a defender position-wise.
The NBA will never be the same
10:01 Pippen's like "Don't help him up!"
Two greatest players of all time
when basketball was great
Man, what a trip. I went back to the 1990s for 14.54 minutes.i even shouted when Tont Kukoc hit that three pointer, twice.Unbelievable..What a game.
Crazy how much more fans were into the game without cell phones.
THIS IS BASKETBALL! and my two favorite players .. KUKOC & RODMAN.. these guys were UNSTOPPABLE!!
Young Kobe Bryant meets Michael Jordan on their first meeting to play Basketball🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
the difference between Lebron and Michael Jordan are Lebron said he was the best player on the planet but Michael let his play show he was the best player on the planet. Ultimate confidence.
Rd rdxcak
mr. w. But Lebron meant he was the best player in the world at that time
@@breezxy9420 Lebron is a loser
LeBron try to convince himself of him being the greatest but deep down he know he aint on Jordans level
so Lebron did both..he said he was the best player and he is....3 rings and all..still..just like Ali said i am the greatest..reasearch friend
Love you Kobe! Thanks for the great memories
This era of the nba was amazing i really wish todays era was more like this no disrespect but this 90era was real ball
i remembered watching this game, MJ wasnt feeling it that night, luckily Kukoc n Pippen was on fire that night. I was also very impressed with Van Exel.
Damn, sometimes I forgot how great Kukoc was.
Toni was damn good, very clutch when you didn’t expect it! Easy to forget behind MJ, Pip, Rodman memories - but more often than not, he was solid player and very good on offense! He is a very big part of why the bulls had success after Michael came back 💯
Toni was ice cold when it came to clutch shots
Toni was nice good pick up by Jerry
Wow!!! Classic game
The Bulls just knew how to wow the crowd 😊
Slick Nick was a beast even putting Cinci in the mix back when ACC n Big 10 had college on lock. So many story lines in this game all the way to Rumeal Robinson
MJ: 10/32 for 30 pts. (47 min)
Pippen: 13/26 for 35 pts (44 min)
Kukoc: 9/16 for 31 pts (35 min)
Shaq: 12/20 for 27 pts (44 min)
Van Exel: 14/21 for 36 pts (42 min)
Kobe: 2/5 for 5 pts (10 min)
That whole game was great. A lot of moments.
One of the SICKEST game ever...VanExel,Jordan,Kukoc,Rodman MVPs
This game was a battle of the lefties: Van Exel vs. Kukoc.
The improvement Kobe made the following season was remarkable
I love that moment at 10:00 minute mark of this video where Rodman knocks Shaq down for a hard foul and Pippen pushes Kukoc's hand away after he was trying to help him up. That's good ole fashioned basketball, man. I still remember watching this game live on Optus Tv and have it on DVD now as well.. Classic
Right!!! No time to be nice....#classic
I FUCKING LOVE YOU RODMAN HAHAHAHA AND THAT LAST FREE-THROW WAS GOLD
I remember when I was younger watching this in my mom living room man! good times
the dude at 11:47 was extremely pumped
Lmfao. He fucking was!!!!!
Man looks so passionate lol
He's my hero
Hes like I love those taxis!
I love em too brother
Greatest team in history of the game !!
I love the intensity both team are my favorite Bulls and Lakers throwback game...still watching here 2022❤
Somethings telling me that was the game loss that made Kobe push it to the limit. RIP “BLACK MAMBA”
I bet next day he was shooting ft for hours
classic classic game! i m lovin' this
Kobe had just arrived on the seen. It was Nick The Quick show baby...Killing it!!
Kobe was a champ straight out of high school and The Shaq attack threw a good block to win the championship. MJ always had an excellent shot it was a close game.
This is a good video to show how great the n a used to b...and how great some unknown player r...nic van exel was a baller un known to young ppl these days
he was a beast with dat left hand
Unreal. Eddie Jones. Misses both clutch free throws up by 3. in overtime, down by 2 gets the rebound tosses up a brick.
This is fuckin basketball right here!!!
Damn dennis is good
On 17 Rebs of Rodman, imagine how many points made by his rebs.
10:01 Kukoc tries to help up Shaq and MJ tells him "His teammates can help him"
It's Pippen, not MJ but great find
After Pippen pulls Kukoc's hand away, MJ attempts to help Shaq up lol
it was a hard landing, lucky Shaq's legs are still strong, otherwise it would have been hyper-extended with the body weight he have
LOL wow I saw it completely different at first, but Pipped must have slapped MJ's hand away as well, although its not a huge deal, you should never help the opposing team up.
Hahaha! Priceless!
omg! I'm glad to see this video about rodman vs shaq in overtime! lol!
Imagine being 18 year old kid playing against the greatest player in the planet
Imagine kobe play like luka doncic will shock the bulls.
RIP Kobe Bryan 🙏
What a game...
Nostalgic
I smiled all Thur this thanks for best playback
Amazing game
What a game
MJ schooled kobe there woow! And what a game by Pip and T.Kukoc
Kobe was a rookie coming off the bench. He only played 10 minutes
Yeah I know that he's a rookie on this but actually I am impressed with how MJ played like those kinds of quick moves to the basket that kobe hasn't. Although kobe is better in terms of 3 point shots than MJ but overall I can still judge their biggest difference because MJ can carry his team to a championship unlike kobe when shaq left from the lakers in exchange for odom they didnt even entered the playoffs. They needed some star big men like pau gasol which I think was one of the reasons for getting his 4th and 5th championship. Otherwise he couldnt able to win a ring without a star big men. The bulls won their championships without a star big men not because of MJ and Pip can dominate their game but they also make their teamates play much better on defense and offense.
Intense game, intense era.
With this great show, we can easily forget the confrotation Jordan vs Kobe...
this game was lit jprdan was gettin it
this is what I call basketball. Big time rebounds by Rodman, Big time 3-pointers by Kukoc. Breath taking intensity in the 2nd half. Jordan and Pipppen delivered as usual but it was Tony and Rodman helped save the game. Lakers had a very strong lineup but the whole team was still too young. Really miss the good old days when players really fought!
Great Mate
Uuuf! What a game! Movielike
I saw this game live. It was basically MJ, Pippen, Randy Brown, Toni Kukoc, Phil Jackson and the ghost of Artis Gilmore all against Nick Van Exel..... and Van Exel almost pulled it off.
You forgot Granville Waiters.
Those lakers were pure talent... van exel, eddie jones, kobe, dereck fisher.. guards and sf ..
That was 1 heck of a contest! thnx for sharing.
Pippen wearing the J12 same shoes with MJ😍. Kukoc was on fire, that's why he deserves to be in the hall of fame👏👍
Rodman's presence is fucking crazy.. he doesn't score but more likely he wants to control the boards..
Real Sakuragi
"I don't get five championships here without him." - Kobe on MJ🐐
At 13:21, Del Harris was like, "Kobe, you're gonna ride the bench all season long for missing those free throws.".
Can’t believe my boy gone man😢 rip bean
I remember watching this game. I was 11 at the time. I was nervous that the Lakers were gonna win the game. I hated the Lakers, and more specifically, Shaq. But I was glad Kukoc caught fire like he did to help Chicago come back and win in overtime.
This team would obliterate the Golden State Warriors
+Scott Freebass #beats Maybe but Reggie Miller's Pacers and Patrick Ewing's Knicks both pushed these Bulls to 7 hard games. I think the Ws are better than both those teams so I think it would be a close series. I would tend to lean towards the Bulls but I think obliterate it way overdoing it.
Don't get me wrong this Warriors team is good. But I don't see Curry doing too well against Pippen and Jordan. They would take it personally and make the game a nightmare for Steph. Plus Rodman will cancel out Draymond.
Scott Freebass #beats
Again I'm not saying the Bulls wouldn't win but Rodman would not "cancel out" Draymond. He's a great defender but Dray would still get his. I think the Ws bench is better than Chicago's. But yes I agree the perimeter defense that Jordan Pip and Harper could play plus Mike's scoring ability would be a monumental challenge for the Ws. But then again not many people thought Detroit(Chauncey, Rip, Wallacex2) could beat the Lake show and Detroits mollywhopped the Lakers. My heart's with the Ws(been a fan for over 20 years) but my head's with da Bulls.
+James Reese Idk. With that defense Jordan, Pippen, and Harper had Steph and Clay wouldnt get off nearly as many three's as they do now. And they with the triangle defense, it would be hard to get by the bulls.
Ronnie Hall Jr I agree the warriors wouldn't be getting as many easy 3s against the bulls
this is when nba got so much respect and aspiration arou d the world.
MJ was present,Kobe Bryant showed he was the future NBA legend.
The Goats!
pippen was melting threes like its nothing
Fast foward to my man in the stands.. LMAO... 11:47-11:51... Dude is HYPED up... LMAO
Justin Owens you know that guy in the stands yelling was having the time of his life. Nothing mattered at those moments to him outside that arena just that game and his Bulls team. I believe my reaction 2600 miles away in California was the sameway watching this game lmao!
lol... Look at Byron Scott keeping the bench warm.
