- folks, i like that,,,, its the greatest game in the 90's.......my opinion.......the rivalry between the knicks and the bulls ,,especially between Michael and Patrick were intensive,emotional and that was inbelievable games,,,,,,season and playoff-games...........but this playoff game in 1993 was the greatest .......the knicks could win this game,,,,but charles smith couldn't finish the game ,,he had 3 chances making the biggest shot in his career,, but scottie pippen stopped him with 2 block shots...........thats it,,,,,great game ,,,watch it
The energy in that building was crazy 27 straight wins at home, two wins against the Chicago Bulls and now game 5 at home it must have felt like fight night. These were the day the classic days of bulls vs knicks. although I was a Knicks fan I would watch these games over and over and over for the sheer excitement. These moments can rarely be captured by today's NBA.
MJ destroy Ewing, Knicks And 27 Straight wins at home ...
MJ Is The Greatest Of All Time ...
Kurt Cobain Jordan wasn't why they won this game.. The Knicks choked it away.. Fuckin Charles Smith..
+dbreiden83080 I bet there are some people in NYC who still want to fight Charles Smith. LOL. I think the Knicks would've beaten the Suns that year.
lol Jordan strips him twice and Scottie blocked his shot. Bulls had the lead because MJ.
Jason Jusino but in the end Chicago win.deal with it
To me this is still the best playoff game I ever saw
Charles Smith will be remembered forever for this play😅
Jordan AND Pippen in their primes? nothing can compare.
My goodness, what a game! I had forgotten how much Pippen had contributed offensively in this game. Jordan was obviously off offensively as there was no way the Knicks were going to let him light them up for 54 points, like he did in Game 4. But these clips show that Jordan did all the LITTLE things it takes to help his team win other than just score: double-digit assists, offensive rebounds and putbacks, blocked shots, steals, etc. Whatever it takes!
There is nothing better then early 90's bulls, Knicks! Regular season, and playoffs.
Hard fought games
I will NEVER forget this game. As a Knick fan it scarred me to my core. Smith lost this game and thus the series.
What a game! I remember me and my father and uncles all in the front room watching this game. My father just got us a big screen tv that winter with a surround stereo he hooked up to the TV. Living here in Chicago watching the Bulls was must. Those last seconds my house was going crazy 🤣
This is probably one of the top 5 best playoff games ever. Most people think of MJ as a scoring machine but he actually KILLED the Knicks in this game with all the intangibles: offensive rebounds, finding the open man, hustle plays, and getting it done on the end where it really counts: defense. It’s hard to say if Smith was fouled at the end there for sure but unless it was BLATANTLY obvious they weren’t going to call it in a frantic situation like that.
This game shows why Pippen was important during the championship reign of the 90's. Scottie in the last two games against the Knicks he basically helped Jordan carry the Bulls to the Finals and my favorite part of the game was the facial dunk on Starks (7:45).
Maybe even more nasty then the Dunk on Ewing (in my opinion)
One of the best and most gut-wrenching playoff games I remember watching during the Bulls' dynasty years. Smith being blocked over and over was classic!
Man was Ewing silky smooth or what? What a jumpshot
For me, this game just confirms that Patrick Ewing was screwed as an NBA player. Jordan had guys who could step up for him, Paxson hit the big shot in 93, Kerr the big one in 97, obviously Pippen always came through for Jordan when he had to. Ewing's guys? Get point blank layups blocked over and over again like Smith. Or go ice cold in Game 7 of the Finals like Starks. Ewing's no Jordan, but he'd have gotten his ring if he had teammates that could deliver in the clutch.
True
kerr and paxson both averaged under 5 ppg wtf are you talking about. Pippen, who became an all star in 1991, never averaged over 20 in a playoffs. John Starks and Charles Oakley became All Stars for the Knicks and they had tough guys like Xzavier McDaniel and Anthony Mason to wreak havoc in the post. Chill.
@@3245mair You're ignoring that the Bulls' played great team defense, too, plus their size and length. Their depth is underrated. The supporting cast and role players under Jordan did so much that they get undervalued: defense, big shots, smart play. The Knicks were tough, but they were hardly as talented as the Bulls. Jordan had Dennis Rodman, Horace Grant, Ron Harper, Scott Williams, Stacey King, Luc Longley, etc. These guys were banging for him, getting rebounds, perimeter defense, and helping keep the team in games from a defensive standpoint.
one of the all time great big men always respectedd pat ewing
Great Defense as always by the two Greatest Defensive Wings IMO of All-time!
This game had so many storylines, even two nicknames. Bull fans call it "The Block Party at Madison Square Garden" Knick fans call it the "Charles Smith Game."
Chicago vs New York; Jackson vs Riley, so-called grace vs so-called power; Jordan vs Ewing & the best teams in the NBA, who were on a collision course all year.
There were great plays & bizarre plays, like Jordan & Pippen in transition, mistaking an official for a teammate & throwing the ball at him. (even Phil Jackson laughed)
Bulls went up 8, then Ewing hit a "3" Bulls next chance to regain control, Grant missed a free throw, Cartwright fouled out going for the rebound & "control" was replaced by anxiety of Ewing vs Will Purdue or Stacy King
Marv Albert said "this game could define Ewing legacy." not long before Knick's biggest off-season acquisition was stuffed over & over, with the game on the line.
When my legacy is defined, I hope I play the way Ewing played that night.
Bill Murray poking fun at the all-consuming Jordan media coverage, which I feared might drive Jordan into retirement after '93 Postseason. Seems crazy to think about that now.
Thank God the Bulls were there to carry Cub & Bear fans like myself thru the 90s
In my opinion, the most exciting game I have ever seen !
Facts
This and the '92 NFC Conference Championship are my two favorite pro games of life.
Smith. Smith. Smith. Smith again!!! LOL! Wow! I just relived that moment. Thanks for the upload. Great memories.
That facial on starks by pippen was vicious!!!!
Pippen point blank defense. Crucial.
Pippen was point blank crucial, period. He's a legit top 30 player of all time who was disrespected by casual fans his entire career.
I've even heard some idiot "Bulls fans" who say that Jordan would've still won without Pippen. Just foolish. Pippen was legendary. Just a really good all-around player.
Like someone else said: Pippen may not be the best guy on the team, but hes better than the best player on the other team
OMG! I was in Sr High, and remember be all of the game in the edge of the seat in my parents' home. Really brought me memories these highlights. I wish we can see games like this again.
Probably my favorite Bulls game of all time.
...not a Scottie fan at all.
But I forgot how NICE dude was, DAMN!!! He had a diverse set of skills...and he had baby-Mike like intensity.
Last play be Charles Smith, he gets blocked by Grant, recovers and ball stripped by Jordan, recovers and blocked by Pippen, and another block by Pippen. How is Charles Smith a bum? He just got stopped 4 times by one of the greatest defensive teams of all time.
The old NBA theme music...so much better
Great video quality of "The Block Party"
This game Reminds me of the old days when the Knicks were men. and not the useless losers we suffer with now.
Ironically the Bulls (as currently constituted sans Derrick Rose) is like a poor man's Knicks team of the 1990s.
Este es el mejor juego de la serie de ese año. Y uno de los mejores juegos de Pippen en su carrera.
and,what happened to the centers of today?Patrick Ewing's low post moves will always be a joy to watch.his turnaround fadeaway jumper from the baseline was one of my favorite moves,a move that that you can't see to the centers of this era.and Patrick was a warrior during his time and always will be.he could've have won a championship or two if not...for MJ!!
What a move
8:17 - 8:31 perfectly sums up Jordan & Pippen. helping each other win.
+Unknown111 45pts
I love watching this game. Every possession counts
So many games in the 90's were about every possession. All those games that were low scoring 89-88, etc. Much more suspense and thrill. Defense made the game twice as exciting. Now it's just a shootaround contest, easier dunks, and almost no floor IQ.
Jordan defense in the lower area pippen at the upper back area it never been plan its just a combination of two great player
Scottie Pipen the best defense
From my perspective of the first 3peat team. This was the greatest game played where legacies were at steak. Would fans still consider MJ as an all time great and would haters change their opinions on Ewing not being able to step up in crunch time. This game decided the fates of Jordan and Ewing.
Ewing had a great Series especially Game 5, but he lost
To me legacies are pointless. Jordan's includes great teammates; Ewing's doesn't
But the GM's were the tall, thin guy with great hair & the pudgy guy covered in doughnut crumbs; not Jordan/Ewing.
92 Knicks better, IMO X-man McDaniel & Gerald Wilkens no longer affordable, because of blockbuster Clipper trade & payroll that came with it.
Riley obviously expected a lot from Smith & if he admits he should have replaced Smith with Oakley for the game winning play, well that tells me Smith didn't meet Riley's expectations. If that's true, then blame goes to Riley, not Smith
Anticipation for this series began 30 seconds after Game 7 of 92.
Most sporting events fail to live up to their hype. This series exceeded it
Here's why it's unfair to judge players on titles. Dynasties prevent a lot of great players from winning or even reaching them.
In the '60s, '80s & 90s, a lot of 1st ballot Hall of Famers failed to win titles due to the Celtics, Lakers/Celtics & Bulls Some failed to even reach the championship round.
The 93 bulls is my favorite team!!!! They went through hell and back to win a third straight championship!!!!!! As much as I love the 91 bulls, the 93 bulls is my favorite championship team!!!! Chicago bulls nation for life!!!!!!
This was when NBA Basketball was great, now its watered down crap. Thank you for posting this
Sorry Jordan haters. Those were all clean blocks on Smith! Deal with L. You had PLENTY of other chances, with, AND without Jordan, to win in the 90's. Knicks were an all-time great team..very emotional. But it was that same emotion that destroyed them...they just couldn't handle pressure
The Knicks killed themselves from the FT line shooting 20/38 the entire game.
You said. There was the difference of the game.
And NO one says anything about this!
They blocked the shit out of Charles Smith 😂😂.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the best playoff games in league history.
The 93 bulls went through so much adversity during ththe 93 playoffs but they were able to stay tough and win their third straight championship!!!!! Chicago bulls nation for life!!!!!
I was 7yrs old watching this with my older brother..this was the NBA.
smh* I'm a Bulls fan true and through... Scottie Pippen is my favorite player of all time... but even I have to admit... Ewing was alone out there.
EmpireArcadia
Knicks had the best record in the East at 60-22 that season and was up 2-0 in this series.
NBA on NBC always had the best intros!!!
One of the plays that ALWAYS stuck out in my mind was the play @12:12
Did y'all see HOW HIGH he got up on that release, and how long he hung in the air?!!
blackadam06 he shot one like that against the Pistons in 1991. smoki has that game too.
+blackadam06 That high flying fade-away was pretty normal for Mike, and you can tell by the less than enthusiastic response from the commentators back then. No one can touch that.
Absolutely my favorite Bulls/Knicks game. This is the only year as a Bulls fan I wasn't sure we'd win it all. The Knicks were that damn good and that hungry.
sportjames23 I got nervous after games 1 and 2 when Chicago fell behind 0-2. Needless to say they showed New York why they were the 2 time defending champs.
@@rodneybenbow1787 Indeed.
15:34 The funniest moment in Marv Albert's career!
That's one of the greatest games of the 1990s Chicago Bulls...Thanks for uploading!
8:50 nice coast to coast. Classic playoff game Bulls were on a mission that year
I never knew patrick ewing was this good lol.
Man those NBC intros always got me hyped to watch some epic showdown. I miss those NBA on NBC days!
Great game great win! Patrick Ewing always gave the bulls problems. Great player!!
scottie was killing in this game. he carried them. this game was so intense. i am sweating watching this game!
This was the first and only game Pippen did well in. MJ dominated the entire series through game seven.
lol, right. a guy who averages 22.5pts, 6.7rbs,4.0ast,1.8sts & .5blks played well in one out of 6 games. here is the link to the series www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_1993_ECF.html#CHI-NYK
NBAGOATS There was no game 7.
That NBA on NBC theme song man gives me chills, I would give up everything I own in this world just to live a week back in those days. The Games, the players, the physical play and heart that the players had for the game has just diminished in todays game its all about twitter and facebook, it sucks.
I miss 90's basketball.. An era where power was actually allowed in the paint / post. Now all anyone has to do is flop when being backed down and it is an offensive foul. So annoying watching a team try to take advantage of a switch with a big player v small player in the post. It is almost an automatic offensive foul for the big player.
I remember watching this game... The nod to "Poltergeist" He's BAAAACK! After MJ lit the Knickerbockers up for 54... Yea, NY had plenty to be scared of that night!
15:34 X-Man watched from home like “they traded me for this shit? FOUR MISSED ATTEMPTS”
15:48 salt on the wound as the buzzer sounds and Mike runs off into the New York summer night for what the world thought was the last time (for the first time)
Do you notice the guy's bodies back then were muscles and cut up now the guy's bodies are fat, super skinny, or have no muscle tone at all. Man, I miss these days! Life was different.
EWING FOR SMITH.... SMITH, SMITH,SMITH,SMITH, STOP SMITH AGAIN, WHAT A PLAY BY SCOTTIE PIPPEN!!!!!
Pippen was money on both sides of the ball this series!
High quality basketball. That's how the game is supposed to look.
What a great play by Ewing from 5:55-6:00!!!!!:D
The last 30 seconds are epic!!
This game was an absolute battle, this was when the NBA was actually worth watching and not this washed up league that we see today. I think the early-mid 90's Knick's team would beat any team today. No way that Dwight Howard and any other center today could hang with Patrick Ewing. Scottie Pippen on the open floor was just murder.
Players of this time are barely rookies to the ones back then. MJ Ewing and all the others will score 40+ in almost every game of the season in this league of today.
Ewing for Smith...Smith...stripped...Smith stopped! Smith stopped again! By Pippen!
"the alley opp to perfection"
legendary
Can we just imagine if MJ went to Knicks after 1998 title?
10:25 this one of the coldest moves i ever seen from mj
Ewing and knicks was awsome, the only reason that the knicks didn't won a championship was Jordan
like always scotty pippen
Four tries and got denied four times
The fight in the stands was the best!
1993 was the year the Knicks had the chance to dethrone the bulls…the 1992-93 Knicks had a monster year…they were rising in the early 90s but Knicks blew it in this game, after the game 5 killer loss, it was over, that was the series, the Knicks never recovered again.😢
I love this game.
smith, smith, smith, bulls stop smith, smith, smith, smith............damn what was that name again?? lol............
man,,, thats right......also my fav game
Smith was so mad at the end lol
My fuck was this great ball in the 90's!! Todays game just lacks any cohesion and team play, all about showboating/dunks and there isn't the same feeling as was then
nor fundamentals. Back then, most the great big men not only could power dunk and rebound but also had outside games and could hit FTs, and if they were open from 10 ft, they'd bury it. Nowadays, all the C's are horrendous FT shooters who have no finesse game what so ever and god forbid they can hit the shortest of jumpers, or even take em because they are that bad. DeAndre Jordan would of been a scrub in these days but in todays NBA, hes gonna end up getting a fat contract next summer. Ewing could do it all, as could Olajuwoun, Admiral, Brad Daugherty, and Vlade Divacs, Alonzo Mournings..etc
imagine Ewing in Todays NBA. he would dominate so hard.
Miss this kind of BALL
dont forget rodman he set the tone on defense and played with heart and shut down the other teams post player!
That version of super mike was amazing!
This video is basketball game between Newyork vs Chicago . But, this is not just game. This is war of represented 2 cities.
this years heat team reminds of this bulls team, didnt have homecourt through both east finals and the finals against the sun
Cuatro jugadas defensivas en los últimos segundos: Grant con el bloqueo, Jordan con chispar el balón, y los dos últimos bloqueos de Pippen. Sí, algo que en estos días ya no se ve en la Nba: el básquet se gana por defensa.
I cried at the end of this game as an 11 year old knick fan. We had a packed house & we were all deflated. Imagine busting ur butt all year for home court & it comes down to the last play? X man should have stayed
EXCELLENT!!!!
this still hurts
Mj said use only 3 fingers when shooting jumpers on hes vhs vids i was kid back then i still use it now
The Knicks were 60-22 in 1993...and the Bulls wiped the floor with them.
Still, the Garden was so alive back then. It was the hottest ticket in town. There were so many celebrities at Knicks games (besides Spike Lee). Now, no one gives a shit. People care about the Knicks as much as they care about the NY Liberty.
+Peter Parker The Knicks cleared defeated the Bulls in games 1 and 2. But they lacked the strong mental savvy that Detroit possessed and always lost their cool in pivotal moments. The small factors is what did them in as a die hard Knicks fan, i watch these games over and over and analyze what could have been. Today's NBA is not close to the suspense and intensity that this old school basketball brings!! KNICKS!!!
+Shawn Thomas We just didn't have a good enough supporting cast for Ewing.I love Starks and Oakley but they had Pippen plus better role players than us.
I just tortured myself again watching Charles Smith miss 3 layups - life of a Knick fan, wound still fresh after all these years - I still hate the Bulls
+Wesley Alexander maybe you can watch 93-94 game5 bulls vs knicks in playoffs as a consolation.
7:47, it was brutal.
Uhhh noooo I was so siiick after this game...
4:23 That dunk was good
MJ and Scottie torched the Knicks. They were the Knicks worst nightmare.. 😝😝😝😝
+KEYC2009 You're also forgetting Reggie Miller
+DASCO2136 Of course he forgot Miller.Why not?We made it to the finals twice,the Pacers made it once,when the Ewing era was over in 2000.Miller is overrated.
All ball at the end. Smith didn't even complain that he was fouled.
let's always remember that MJ's Bulls was not a super team unlike the Heat of LBJ and the Lakers' of Kobe in this era.he may have Pippen but the rest were just role players,but still got through w/ 6 rings and it could've been 8 if Jordan did not retire when his father got murdered.
The 96-98 Bulls had Rodman too tho, thats 3 hall of famers in one team
@jaboo82681 wrong . U forgot the dpoy awards and rebounding titles Rodman got in Detroit while winning two rings. Rodman was solidified before coming to Chicago
I wish they never took out hand checking in the nba :(
Had to rewatch this game for entertainment and nostalgic purposes. Yeah, Charles Smith is under the microscope because of the finish, but the Knicks lost this game at the foul line: 20/35, and they lost by 3. Only a handful of free throws would've changed how this game and possibly this series ended.
Back when basketball was worth watching...
