And some people still have the balls to say that MJ faced no good defenders in his career. 90's basketball was a low scoring era because defense was a real deal back then. Now you have a lazy James Harden not defending at all and who ever is guarding him won't even put a hand on him and will just watch his ass dribble like an idiot while both teams fall asleep.
Both teams were locked in their respective seeds. Ewing, MJ and Pip have been playing ball non-stop since October '91 (Olympics included). Every star including Starks was nursing injuries, yet, they all PLAYED! Check out this concept: Fans pay their hard-earned money to see the league's biggest superstars battle it out on NATIONAL TV, on the world's biggest stage, in the NBA's most heated rivalry at the time, and nobody is resting! lol. It made it even better that they met again in the playoffs. Incredible.
blade brown - and back then, you had a couple of back to back games in the playoffs. It was different and more difficult. I remember playoff games where MJ was just burned out and fatigued and played poorly for his lofty standards because he played the night before. Of course, he would come out like fire in the next game with a few days rest. Today's commercialized game is much easier for these guys.
You saw Starks play like this and it made you feel you could do better at something. Jordan gets the best of Starks and the Knicks but the fact that a guy with mostly heart could take him on and do well every once in a while made you believe we all have it in us to be greater at something.
Have it now he had a lot of heart but he was a very good player as well... very athletic, knockdown shooter, good defender, solid size for a combo guard at 6’3(especially in that era)... it wasn’t mostly heart... he was far from a bum
What I love about watching games like this is that it dispels the narrative that MJ wasnt a good passer. He was a great overall player and quite frankly the best playmaker on all the bulls teams
I'll give John Starks a ton of credit. He really played Jordan tough in those games. He gets his finger dislocated, runs to the team trainer, gets it popped back into place, and returns and finishes the game. If LeQueen James had gotten his finger dislocated, he would've whined and left the floor.
MJ earned every bucket that day, shout out to Starks he is gritty as they come. Nd the Knicks supporting cast was hitting when necessary, this era of basketball is always fun to watch.
Starks was always known for getting finger dislocations, it’s quite painful watching the trainer put it back in, but the man had a great threshold of pain
Anytime you start to think so and so might be as good or some people think even better than MJ, just go back and watch MJ highlights and then you’ll quickly realize he’s still the 🐐 by a good ways.
Damn, I forgot Starks was a pretty good defender on top of his offensive game. He even blocked Jordan several times and stole a lot of good passes from opposing teams and whatnot. I guess I'm used to idiot know it alls who think they know everything about basketball telling me he sucks just cuz they dwell upon the one game he choked. Yet they don't think about any of the other games he basically carried the Knicks though. Even more and better than Ewing who no one seems to say anything bad about. Also I realized that Jordan even fucked up on the court at times. I have been so used to saying his game was so perfect and hearing everyone else and their mommas say it too, I forget he's also human. A still live otherworldly human, but he's still just human like the rest of us. Starks will forever be my #1 favorite Knick of all time and I'm gonna honor that nigga as one of my top 5 favorite shooting guards of all time too. He deserves better than what the public says.
This was the NBA that I watched and enjoyed, and not the current NBA which has kind of pushed me away from the sport. I still enjoy watching these old games, though, it's so great they are available. Download them while you can!
I really think that the only people who could survive that particular NBA back, then was a non-complaining, LeBron James, Giannis, of course, and maybe even Draymond Green
That's style Michael Jordan playing the game is beautiful he was doing everything in that game number 1 in the league stealing rebounding I mean he was doing everything
Can you imagine how frustrated and how shut down the splash brothers (Curry and Thompson )would have been in that era vs this ferocious and lock down defense of the KYK's. and 'm pretty sure that Smith would have put the clamps on Durant....I mean Pippen was locked down....smothering and suffocating defense, where it's difficult to even get the ball.
Two just absurdly talented defensive teams. Perhaps two of the best ever. I mean, man oh man, it may not be as pretty as 32'ers but, this was mean, good ball. Love this.
Forever Respected how hard Starks played Defense against MJ... He didnt lay down like most people did .. They bowed to MJ .. Where as Starks knew in his heart MJ is the best on the planet.. But let me just play my heart out anyway.. Forever RESP3CT
John starks was a warrior and made MJ earn every bucket. When your greatest like MJ you cound only hope to make him work for every basket and perhaps make him shoot a lower percentage, and starks did that on many occasions. MJ loved JOhn Starks
Those were some great times back then, the Knicks at that time were my absolute favorite team (definitely not the post Dolan franchise) Starks was a ferocious defender even though a prime Rolondo Blackman was probably one of the best defendors of Jordan there was. Charles Smith was absolute booty, I don’t know why the Knicks didn’t work harder to retain X-Man. As much as I love Starks, once MJ did that lean in the post, you were pretty much finished.
The Knicks won the season series, and choked in the ECF that year after leading 2:0. Charles Smith should have been crucified for getting stuff 4 times under the basket in Game 5
When Charles Smith got blocked those 4 times I’m sure he was highly embarrassed. Professional athletes don’t let themselves get blocked consecutively like that. Although New York won this game and won the season series, but Chicago always proved to be better in the playoffs.
starks blocked jordans fadeaway, stole the ball from him, dunked on him, even got under his skin and jordan wanted to fight starks. stop the nut riding.
I believe the knicks had a better record than chicago that year but didn't matter, chicago still owned the east... hell owned the league at that time. The 92 semi finals series between chicago and NY is probably the best and most intense series of all time
One of the many Good Games Starks has against Jordan history and the Media covered up. Jordan shot horrible this game at 10-28 and was clamped. Refs tried to free him up tho. The same way they did when this powerful Knicks team dismantled them first 2 games in the ECF before the Big Machine that Pushed Jordan decided to step in.
I'm Chicago to my core. Hated starks w a passion. He was the most annoying player. Knicks bulls rivalry was legendary but Jordan pip n Chicago could never be beat in finals in 90s.we ruled.
Jordan fouls terribly and gets away with them.....Starks owned Jordan and frustrated Jordan....more than the irritating Jazz...and Malone.antics.....that´s not basketball....its theater....or cheating....Starks was up to the task better than anybody else back in the day....I wonder if Starks could have fit in with the Pistons....interesting thought...
@Ulysses432 still here you butt hurt mj groupie trynna restore his destroyed fame and dignity???

Starks was kicking his ass you cheerleading loser of chi town!!
Cwm368 MJ shot 10-28 this game and in the playoffs against the Knicks that year he shot 40% for the series. WTF are u talking about "tough D never bothered him?"
Highschool LBJ better than Overated prime MJ W asf I swear MJ is overrated asf bruh. Keep this between us he better than MJ, but on other channels I'ma say MJ better bro
m Khan EXCUSES like a typical MJ fan. During the 1996 finals he shot like 41% and the next year in the playoffs for a full series against the Heat, he shot 38% against tough defense, look www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/1997-nba-eastern-conference-finals-heat-vs-bulls.html
well did you see the game or even the highlights? Starks guards Jordan. Jordan rarely guards starks. I guess the bulls didnt want to tire out his airness by chasing Starks around screens all day long..
Michaeljordan by lifting weights so much lost a step he became big way too big his arms or not as long as before and his speed was a little bit slower so most of those guys we're able to guard him a little bit much better because the weightlifting then he had to realize that he has to change his game to a post-op top of game there were no flashy dunks penetration dribbles and fancy moves it was more now of a mostly michaeljordan with slow-speed and kids like just Starks we're able to Garden much better because of that but he needed the muscles to withstand a little bit more the physicality of the game but at the same time he f***** up his game so much that he became a Slowpoke he still was a monster but guys like John Starks were able make a dent in his offense
LOL Who the hell is John Starks? We have guys in this league today like Durant, Curry, Leonard, LeBron, Westbrook and John Wall.... yet Michael's biggest competition was some overrated scrub named John Starks who was barely 6'1, 180 pounds. I'd like to see Jordan try those same moves with Jimmy Butler or Kawhi guarding him. He'd get locked down 🔒🔒🔒
Kevin Costner Wizards jordan was still schooling kobe, t-mac, Allen iverson, Vince carter, ray allen, Dirk, KG, and duncan all in their primes while he was a 40 year old man and was still having mulitple 40 to 50 point games. So it wouldn't matter.
HE GOT GAME23 Yeah....he averaged 20 points a game with a 47 TS%....which is pretty bad. MJ was a high volume shooter on a bad team back in 2002. Stop overrating his abilities. Yeah, he was old but he was an objectively below-average player. Yet you bring it up like it's a positive.
HE GOT GAME23 but yeah...if John Starks is able to do this to Michael, imagine what would happen if he faced Kawhi Leonard and John Wall? LOL it would be abuse. Starks doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as these guys. MJ was just ahead of his time, that's all.

Man, the Knicks really had a squad back then. Patrick Ewing, John Starks, Charles Oakley, Anthony Mason (R.I.P.), Doc Rivers... 60-22
Just not good enough. But damn good.
Even as a native Chicagoan, that whole 93 season was "yeah, let's get to Bulls/Knicks in the playoffs".
Those were the days!
I'll take these low scoring games over any high scoring games today, this is just so fun and beautiful to watch
I miss watching the 90's 😔

Anthony Davis would have been out for the season 😂
Starks was always known for getting finger dislocations, it’s quite painful watching the trainer put it back in, but the man had a great threshold of pain
the younger generation really MISSED OUT! This was back when basketball was physical, where "no blood no foul" was real
Two of the greatest players for their teams. I wish this basketball was back again.
Those were the good ole days...LOL! Knicks vs Bulls was always a battle.
Anytime you start to think so and so might be as good or some people think even better than MJ, just go back and watch MJ highlights and then you’ll quickly realize he’s still the 🐐 by a good ways.
I've noticed that MJ truly jumps at least 3ft off the ground when he releases his jumpers. The best jump shooting form of all time.
48 inch vertical. Think about that a moment. That’s where the hang time comes in. He got up higher and took longer to come down.
Not gonna lie JOHN STARKS was a BEAST at 6,5 when he was on his game 🏆💯🔥
He was really 6'2", but don't tell the NBA that.
Starks was tougher than his "can't breathe on him" refereeness...
good times when you had intense defense. Stark was a great defender and had a good game, MJ passed so much out of double teams. That guy was smart.
All those hand checks and bumping, backing down a defender and being allowed to push back
I don't think today's nba could handle all the contact of yesterday's NBA.
NOPE KD, MELO, and HARDEN would be average with this era.
@@jamesschultz3706 They'd be wanting a foul for every handcheck and whining about any hard contact when coming down the lane.
Watched this as a child in New York City...90s ball was so great... But admit they weren't as fast as the league is today

Before there was Stephen Curry.... There was John Starks making it hard on Jordan MADD and the Bulls

Why did the NBA change from this style of play? Strong defense, body-checking, etc...
Good question. And people actually say the league was diluted at this time and the quality was worse than what it was today.
why? the league no longer has Michael Jordan
New commissioner, too many divas playing, the owners having no balls...
MJ was quoted saying Starks was his nightmare and the fiercest competitor he ever faced.
