And honestly, MJ could've taken that shot, he had a clear look but Kerr was in a much better position so he made the smart play...idiots who think MJ was a ball hogging shot taker couldn't be more wrong.
He looked the GOAT dead in the eye and said “I”ll be ready!” and came through in the clutch. Kerr has ice-water in his veins, put some res’pek on his name!
***** Geez he did make mistakes which he admitted to but he was not all that bad. It's not like Phoinex are doing so much better once he left after two western conf finals, rather the opposite.So if Kerr was bad look at Phoinex the last 5 years, they suck big time!
Rohit Shinde lol why are you calling people dumb when your the one who is wrong? Stocktons Jersey number is 12..Hornaceks Jersey Number is 14. You can clearly see the 4 of Hornaceks Jersey when he is on his Knees!! So who is the dumb one again?? Hmmmmmmm
I remember thinking at the time that it may have been Kerr who got the clutch shot, but it was Pippen who won that game with probably the most important steal of his life. The way the Jazz were shooting jump shots that night, there was a good chance that had they gotten a shot off, they would have won that game. Pippen stole it out from under them, quite literally. Not to take anything away from Steve. Talk about a clutch shot, but no one ever mentions that inbound steal and getting it to Kukoc for the last slam. I truly believe that is what won the game.
GunterJPN Incredibly underrated player, I agree. Though, he had at one fan who gave him the credit he deserved and that was MJ. Kudos to Jordon for that.
Steve jokes and all but dude is mentally strong. He looks small but is a real man. He took a beating from MJ but didn't take it personal just took it like a man shit happens in practice and moved on. The love and respect that grew between them from that moment on is beautiful to see. Nothing but love. Through pain and joy. All that pain they suffered led to their joy.
In the documentary "The Last Dance" after that altercation with Steve Kerr during practice. Michael Jordan personally asked for Steve Kerr's phone number. After that he called him and they became friends.
You can literally see Jordan look at realizing Steve is gonna be open, look at Steve, shake his head that he has to give the ball up, and then tells Steve he's getting it. You can see the genius work out that it's better to fake and give it to Kerr.
The fact that MJ could have taken that shot and won once he was clear from the 2 defenders he chose to stick by his plan and give the highlight moment to steve kerr! GOAT !
I this was the moment that helped Steve Kerr's confidence and made him believe he could accomplish anything. Like Jordan's North Carolina shot. All it takes is one moment. Good for Jordan sharing the glory he has become accustomed too.
I remember seeing this live Was 9 years old!!!!!! From chicago living in chicago I remember these 2 plays krystal clear in my head and when toni went for the dunk chicago went crazy. Everybody was jumping Golden times
I agree about the look. Pause and look in Jordan's eyes before he speaks. It's like he's drilling his confidence into Kerr. Then he hits the shot. Then the great, great steal by Pippen. Finally the hilarious "true" story of the huddle. Classic game. Miss this NBA.
can anyone do that?i mean can any player think or done what MJ had?he knew that the jazz were going doubled him thats why he told steve to get ready bcoz he knew that steve will be unguarded and Mj also knew that steve can hit the shot..he is a superior leader..truly the greatest ever..
there was some play before that, where he already got doubled, so it was predictable. what outstands is the communication that he told kerr to be ready to potentially take the last shot. that's great leadership.
It really was. The 80's were Bird and Magic (and a bit of Dr. J) but the 1990's were phenomenal. So many great/exciting teams even beyond the Bulls, each of those teams had great future Hall of Famers and without that level of competition, the Bulls' championships would not have seemed so great.
Kerr's mental toughness to take the shot from the GOAT came from taking that elbow from MJ in practice. MJ demanded excellence and brought the best out in his teammates. MJ wasn't just a game winner rip your heart out type of guy. He could mix passing at the right time.
Ahh I remember this game ! I was in primary school then and I stayed awake all night(I'm from Poland) to see this game. I have it still on old VHS tape xD Great times for the NBA.
Steve is very sweet at the end. Good sense of humor. What I love about this video is the line "Michael, in traffic, to Kerr" and the rest. In US, everyone's called by their last name, only those who have achieved a different level of success get to be addressed by their first name. Michael, Kobe ... When you say kevin, I'm like "who the f is that", I think Kevin Garnett, not this unlikeable douche durant. Shit I said too many things in one incoherent comment
Kerr had a memorable series with the Bulls against the Jazz. 1. The game winner on this video.2. marking HOF and one of best point guards in history Stockton( Jackson gave Kerr flack for being pushed around by Stock, so next game he became more physical , one play they tangled on the floor and I saw Stevie give a sneaky punch. 3. Kerr gave a crucial screen (sacrificial suicide) to Malone who elbowed Kerr face then trampled over him on the floor, his team-mate received a open shot which he made from Kerr screen.
The way MJ approached situations like this...it just shows you...he is the master!!! Just watch his 55 point performance vs Phoenix...the whole attitude..unbelievable.
we all know that michael jordan can predict plays. he predicted that stockton would come for a double team and he predicted that kerr could do it. what a goat.
Even if you don't like basketball, Michael Jordan is more inspirational than any other athlete! I love MJ he is the best Basketball player of all-time and one of the best athletes in that sense!
The bulls were a super team. I always forget about toni kukoc who at the time could arguably be top 2 or 3 European player of all time. After Petrovic. People mention jordan pippen and Rodman. And forget about kukoc the bulls had a legitimate big four.
He played the whole scene out in his mind, you can see him shaking his head knowing that Steve would have to take that last shot, so gave him the heads up and the rest is history! Pippen with that amazing inbound steal and diving push pass to Kukoc to seal the game !!
And... Attention to detail: Jordan is trying to cover his mouth with the glass so nobody could hear him... And Steve Kerr reacts speaking loud and moving his hands letting clear to everyone the "secret" play... :DDDD With all my respects! I admire Kerr as a player and a coach... but that was hilarious!
This is one thing Bron lacks,its not skill or athletisism,or IQ,he has tons,but he aint got this quality,a certain kind of intensity, steeliness that makes Jordan who he is.
Teams that had never been to the Finals in that era besides a slightly different Lakers team and a Portland team that made it to the Finals to lose to the Pistons in '90. The best team they faced in all 6 Finals was the '93 Suns. The Lakers were the only team they faced that had won a chip anytime close to their appearance in '91. All the other teams hadn't won a chip in a long time or never!
I’ll never forgot this day, I was sat in the stands as a kid and I poured my Fanta orange on the lady in front of me because I was screaming and jumping with joy, so glad I got the live this moment.
that hesitation and long stare down from jordan as he was in the middle of deciding on handing the torch to someone else for the final shot. he knew he would be double teamed and nobody would expect scrawny little steve to take the shot but he's was a great shooter. that says it all how serious and how much it takes for jordan to trust you. jordan had to look in steves eyes first to see if their was any fear in those eyes before calling his name and telling him he's taking the shot. everyone else just looking off in the distance , tired, drinking gatorade and steve was the only one close to jordan figuring out a plan of action.
FACT: Jordan could have taken that shot. Even though Stockton pulled like they thought he would,Jordan was open enough to take the shot. But he stayed with the plan, he trusted his teammate, he wasn't arrogant & he let him take the shot.
With that shot, he lived out every basketball fan's fantasy-catching a pass from Michael Jordan to hit a game winning shot in the Finals.
Catching a pass from MJ and hit the game winning shot
That itself is greatness
Lindsey Day underrated comment
Lindsey Day getting a pass from mj is amazing itself
And honestly, MJ could've taken that shot, he had a clear look but Kerr was in a much better position so he made the smart play...idiots who think MJ was a ball hogging shot taker couldn't be more wrong.
I think just receiving a pass from kobe would be better 😂😂
Steve Kerr is freakin hilarious, lol.
He is indeed lol
He looked the GOAT dead in the eye and said “I”ll be ready!” and came through in the clutch. Kerr has ice-water in his veins, put some res’pek on his name!
funny af i was cracking up for real...
Extra loud, IF HE COMES OFF ILL BE READY 🗣 lol
How could anyone dislike Steve Kerr?
I know right he's such a classy and humble guy
David McKee I dunno, he's a halfway decent commentator now, it seems. :P
David McKee Hes also coached Golden State to a 65-15 season. Good chance he's about to get another ring as a coach.
David McKee MJ punched him in the face
***** Geez he did make mistakes which he admitted to but he was not all that bad. It's not like Phoinex are doing so much better once he left after two western conf finals, rather the opposite.So if Kerr was bad look at Phoinex the last 5 years, they suck big time!
I know this is about Steve Kerr, but that behind the back pass from his knees by Stockton was one of the sickest passes I've ever seen.
Don Gilsdorf Are you dumb or something? That was Stockton
Rohit Shinde lol why are you calling people dumb when your the one who is wrong? Stocktons Jersey number is 12..Hornaceks Jersey Number is 14. You can clearly see the 4 of Hornaceks Jersey when he is on his Knees!! So who is the dumb one again?? Hmmmmmmm
That was Hornachek with the pass.....
Drewbeh Stockton's Best Pass Yet
mpix00 Oh wow its been 63 weeks since this comment. Well anyways sorry for the bad info.
My man Steve had that swagger. You may not be MJ but's it's all about having that confidence
Kerr took a punch in the face from Jordan during practice, earned his respect.
MJ softly "If he comes off, be ready".
Steve Kerr loudly: "If he comes off I'll be ready".
I noticed that too lol. Oh well it worked
😂😂
The camera was right there. He was prepping for his next contract.
did you catch Kerr's remark via the "Last Dance," documentary?
@@MOTM1234 Dont have cable....so no!!
I wish I was old enough to experience/remember the 90s bulls
+Vumilia I feel old now
urjr lol sorry !
Same, it must've been awesome to watch
+blksung I know man I miss the 90s
blksung yes sir
Steve Kerr is the best, great to see him get that first ring as a coach with the Warriors this year
+AlwaysInBeastMode8 You mean first ring as a couch?
+Saivon Desper No first ring as a futon
Don Johnson XD You funny asf
Ben Severson Lol you funny asf
Thank you for your support
steve kerr doing stand up comedy at the end. hahahhahhaha!

Dave Green As a HUGE Scottie Pippen fan, I can tell you this - don't hold your breath waiting for anyone to give Scottie credit.
GunterJPN Incredibly underrated player, I agree. Though, he had at one fan who gave him the credit he deserved and that was MJ. Kudos to Jordon for that.
GunterJPN Apart from MJ who gave credit to Pippen for ALL his championships you mean?
Yes. People tend to ignore that.
Phii
The eyes at 4:05 before Michael says anything to Kerr. 💯🔥💥☄️
He was always thinking we will win this!!
He was thinking deeply. Looking in Kerr's eyes. Seeing if he looked ready
If he didn't look ready, he would've never gave him the ball. Believe that!
Michael was a man possessed
Steve kerr was ready!
Steve Kerr = GOAT
At making clutch theres at the end of game six of the finals to win by three 89-86 yah I agree
Xcodie54
Threes

his dad was also a diplomat who was murdered, so i can only imagine the ups and downs in kerr's life
In the documentary "The Last Dance" after that altercation with Steve Kerr during practice. Michael Jordan personally asked for Steve Kerr's phone number. After that he called him and they became friends.
So true
He LOOKS small next to Shaq, but he's a big and strong guy.
I'm so happy that Michael did that for Steve! Now he's already a one time winning coach and likely to repeat as well.
Not really
+jonathan gasana Too soon, Lol.
sike
maybe this year.. who knows?
Yup, two-peater as a coach, now.
the way kerr deliver the joke and michael appreciating it, it was priceless haha
You can literally see Jordan look at realizing Steve is gonna be open, look at Steve, shake his head that he has to give the ball up, and then tells Steve he's getting it. You can see the genius work out that it's better to fake and give it to Kerr.
I read all the comments jus for this one😂😂😂swea he ain’t wanna give dat rocc up
i'm really fortunate to have grown up in chicago during the jordan era, 20 years later i still smile ear to ear watching this
I second that sentiment 👍🏽
❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥 facts
Hell yes me too, best time and place to grow up as a fan of basketball
What about the Blackhawks dynasty?
I feel similarly, this is how I know I'm getting old.
I remember this game like it was yesterday still one of the best games I ever seen
that speech was funny as hell man lol
nothing beats the 90s NBA. So many incredible players and teams, what an era.
What about this NBA?
@@Brandon-hg7ic Like 2020+ NBA? There's a reason everyone complains about everything lol
The fact that MJ could have taken that shot and won once he was clear from the 2 defenders he chose to stick by his plan and give the highlight moment to steve kerr! GOAT !

I will NEVER forget this game! Rock on Steve!!!
I love this watched from Chicago with my grandma! To live there is such a time.
Steve Kerr (still) doesn't talk much, but when he does, it's gold =D
Damn these were the years. I'm so blessed to be from this era.
I remember seeing this live
Was 9 years old!!!!!!
From chicago living in chicago
I remember these 2 plays krystal clear in my head and when toni went for the dunk chicago went crazy. Everybody was jumping
Golden times

Not that complicated lol
No wonder your english is bad.
I remember this like it was Yesterday
shinistrue yes!!
Back on the bench, Michael couldn't stop his mind thinking of a way.. briliiant Mike!
the best decade of basketball ever..
Lee Xie the 80s was better
It really was. The 80's were Bird and Magic (and a bit of Dr. J) but the 1990's were phenomenal. So many great/exciting teams even beyond the Bulls, each of those teams had great future Hall of Famers and without that level of competition, the Bulls' championships would not have seemed so great.

that last part was the best part of the video haha :)
MJ makes everyone around him better. GOAT
I remember it like yesterday....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Steve Kerr: a class act and a champion x 5.
Steve Kerr was the Greatest 3pointer on Chicago Bull's ever The 3pointer Beast Steve Kerr⭐✋
When Steve Kerr says 'I'll be ready' he doesn't fuck around!
Ahh I remember this game ! I was in primary school then and I stayed awake all night(I'm from Poland) to see this game.
I have it still on old VHS tape xD
Great times for the NBA.
my god Utahs ball movement was amazing.
This was one of the best finals in 97.the next year they beat the jazz again .jordan himself hitting the last shot
When Michael comes to you for celebration, you know who you are.
He did also hit multiple threes on his Championship final game on Spurs. I always admire Steve Kerr! Kudos from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir
Steve was pretty badass here but that dunk by Tony was straight up legendary
Today’s players think they invented shooting. Steve Kerr was a deadly marksman and he wasn’t the only one.
Mark price as well.
Each time Kerr and kukoc got in the game you knew that there will be 3s raining. loved them
4:05 that the look of a GREAT player trusting his team mate! What a guy!!!
Job Cruz I would be scared knowing MJ would trust me because if I ever failed him he’d hate me.
My all time favorite moment in basketball!
Jordan trusted Kerr to make the last shot🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Steve is very sweet at the end. Good sense of humor. What I love about this video is the line "Michael, in traffic, to Kerr" and the rest.

I just barely remember the 90's Bulls since I would've been 8 or 9 during Michael's last season, but I definitely remember how big of a star he was.
I love steve kerr.
Favorite player ever
Michael Jordan is good but he's no Steve Kerr.
Detective Loki Shut up Detective Loki! Your joke isn't funny.
Hahahaha
A clutch big shot from steve kerr one of the memorable chigago bulls champion 97 i watch tape that game,,

Steve Kerr Is a Beast !!!!! #Beardown #steeeeevekerr
trust your teammates, trust each other -Steve Kerr
Man this gives me the chill's
Come KD listen too Steve Kerr today! And Monday!
steve kerrs speach was pure greatness haha, great moment in nba history right here
Shot was pure
the best is how Jordan was trying to whisper to Kerr to be ready and Kerr just blurts it out all loud, lol.
Amazing shot Steve Kerr!!!
I give props to Scottie Pippen! Intercepting the inbounds. Great job Pip. But of course props to Kerr!
we all know that michael jordan can predict plays. he predicted that stockton would come for a double team and he predicted that kerr could do it. what a goat.
NICE SHOT LITTLE STEVIE!
He always passes many Legends and people that guarded him say that he is unselfish.....
Even if you don't like basketball, Michael Jordan is more inspirational than any other athlete! I love MJ he is the best Basketball player of all-time and one of the best athletes in that sense!
Ratfink820 I know one athlete more inspirational and that is ray Lewis

Good move. Giving the ball to the NBA's All-Time 3 point percentage shooter of all time...
4:13 - the look of stone cold concentration when you realize MJ is about to put you on for the city!
Steve kerr a clutch jumpshot he never forge the moment,,
November 2019, and Kerr looks as old then as he does today. ♥️😂🏀🇺🇸
Steve Kerr is such a cool guy holy f___ lol
MJ knew exactly what was going to happen.
yeah, he knew john stockton would double team him and passed to steve then shoots
amazing, he knew
He played the whole scene out in his mind, you can see him shaking his head knowing that Steve would have to take that last shot, so gave him the heads up and the rest is history! Pippen with that amazing inbound steal and diving push pass to Kukoc to seal the game !!
That was great I.Q. by the greatest player
And... Attention to detail: Jordan is trying to cover his mouth with the glass so nobody could hear him... And Steve Kerr reacts speaking loud and moving his hands letting clear to everyone the "secret" play... :DDDD
With all my respects! I admire Kerr as a player and a coach... but that was hilarious!
Best 3 point shooter ever
steve is a great guy. i'm really happy for him
thank you!!
Man, I miss those 90's nights.
Stuff of legends.
This is one thing Bron lacks,its not skill or athletisism,or IQ,he has tons,but he aint got this quality,a certain kind of intensity, steeliness that makes Jordan who he is.
Hahaha Steve's comments were great at the end
Steve Kerr is the man!!!!! WARRIORS ALL DAY!!!!!!
thanks!!
+Steve Kerr sorry about losing
Sorry y'all lost
It’s not just that the Bulls went 6-0 in the NBA Finals, it’s the all time great teams they denied titles in the process.
Teams that had never been to the Finals in that era besides a slightly different Lakers team and a Portland team that made it to the Finals to lose to the Pistons in '90. The best team they faced in all 6 Finals was the '93 Suns. The Lakers were the only team they faced that had won a chip anytime close to their appearance in '91. All the other teams hadn't won a chip in a long time or never!
Abd Russell still talking ish
I’ll never forgot this day, I was sat in the stands as a kid and I poured my Fanta orange on the lady in front of me because I was screaming and jumping with joy, so glad I got the live this moment.
Little Stevie spot-up!!!
This is painful to watch. Will always love that Jazz team!
What a great guy
When the greatest of all time looks at you and tells you to take the game winning shot..... You've done it right.
Gives me chills
that hesitation and long stare down from jordan as he was in the middle of deciding on handing the torch to someone else for the final shot. he knew he would be double teamed and nobody would expect scrawny little steve to take the shot but he's was a great shooter. that says it all how serious and how much it takes for jordan to trust you. jordan had to look in steves eyes first to see if their was any fear in those eyes before calling his name and telling him he's taking the shot. everyone else just looking off in the distance , tired, drinking gatorade and steve was the only one close to jordan figuring out a plan of action.
thats hilarious bro what steve said its gotten all in his head right that moment but im glad he said those things about michael..
Who here watching this after that wtf shot from Danny Green?
I immediately came here after seeing that shot
word
Yes sir
Lol. Me 😂
He could've been a steve kerr, a game winning shot in game 6, with a goats assist
"I'll be ready". How powerful.
FACT: Jordan could have taken that shot. Even though Stockton pulled like they thought he would,Jordan was open enough to take the shot. But he stayed with the plan, he trusted his teammate, he wasn't arrogant & he let him take the shot.
Steve kerr is a sensational three pointer wayback in his time. Now he will teach stephen curry not to miss every shot , i swear that.
Nice speech by the li'l fella.. :)
