Too lazy to search, but would someone as competitive as MJ really be that hungover for such an important playoff game?
Considering that this was a night game that started at 9:00pm, that would have had to be one hell of a hangover.

Please list for us all the prime stars that wanted to join Jordan in Chicago the first 8 years of his career?

I’ll wait . . . . . . . . . . .

I watched every single game the Bulls played the Jazz in the finals in back to back playoff seasons. That Jazz team was historically great. Not just because of Stockton and Malone but they had great players surrounding them like Hornacek, Russell, Ostertag and were so well coached. That Jazz team could beat the Warriors team with KD and that's not an exageration.
Jordan won both series almost singlehandedly. I can never see LeBron beat those Jazz teams. I just can't.

TBT, you took way more time to shut down all his bs talking points then I do. It's just not worth debating and with so many more people putting Jordan ahead of LBJ public opinion will not change until people in my generation that watched both are dead and gone. KCC I'd Ahab chasing that white whale at all cost.

I find it much easier to just not give a shit.

Public opinion also thought Derek Jeter was better than Alex Rodriguez and continues to think Tom Brady was the best QB ever to play football.

1. For now, Tom Brady is the best QB to ever play football, even if he’s a bit overrated and given too much credit for his last 2 SB’s.

2. It’s not just public opinion. It’s also the media along with former and current players/coaches.

The mid 90s Jazz are now somehow better than a 73 win team that added a top 10 player in history to it in this warped reality.

A guy who was worse than Peyton Manning for the 1st half of his career and worse than Aaron Rodgers for the 2nd half of his career is not the best of all time at anything other than being overrated.

It’s hilarious that you value stats over winning.

I hate Brady, and do think he’s overrated, but he’s the GOAT for now. To argue otherwise is just ignorant.

[Ignores the fact that the Cavs lost 3 out of 4 times to this team in the Finals and the only series won was due to a key injury for said Warriors that allowed Cavs comeback and the ‘greatest championship ever’ :-)]

I'm under the belief that Jordan was hungover.

Which IMO is more impressive.

That really was a damn good Jazz team. Even back then I felt they were probably gonna beat the Bulls. If MJ didn't get that strip of Malone and then the game winning jumper in game 6 in Salt Lake, the Jazz damn well may have won that series.
