(CLASSIC) Michael Jordan Crosses Byron Russell and Game Winning Jumper Vs Jazz

[blankshell]

His name is BRYON Russell. Not Byron.

[VannakN]

Crosses? Are you blind? That was an obvious push off.

[SBVike11]

i was born the day this happened

[tacoma09]

no push-off at all, more of a touch to Russell's body. Russell was going too fast and slipped, great no call ref

[jmanschools]

jordan knew there was a wet spot so he lead byron to it

[meridiantelekoms]

Even if the push was called by the ref, it would still have been 3-3, and The Bulls would still have won it in game 7. hehe

[formeyousee]

MJ did a Salt-N-Peppa move. He "pushed" it real good.

[FrancisRivers]

MJ kinda pushed him a lil bit....but it was a sensational play for sure

[THETOYOTAable]

mj shot over russell in 97 final game 1, game 6 final 98 dont forgot mj made a miracle final steal from malone and shot over russell again, it look like a push but it not because you can tell bryon russell is a 200 bl guy noway mj a little touch and he fell

[stuartlax13]

Jordan did push him, right on the back of the upper thigh. Not hard enough to Russel to do what he did, most of the movement was do the the push Russel was doing and a very good cross over.

And REALLY adib? Overrated. The most famous basketball player of all time drills a last second shot to win the NBA title, which would go down as the last shot that he would make on the team he turned into a dynasty. What more would you want?

[kotton304]

@stuartlax13 thank you. sure, mike's hand was on his hip but the cross over did the damage. his arm barely moves. in my opinion it would take a lot more effort to throw a full grown man.

[shawnchon117]

@kotton304 is a smart guy he said it all.

[DuhIdiot1]

Mike did not push Russell out of the way. Russell went flying from a combination of a great crossover and all the pushing Russell was doing on Mike.

No matter how many lies are told by how many liars, Russell was not pushed out of the way.

[juantamad20]

i think he hold on to russel for support, :) great play!

[adib17]

he did and this shot is vastly over rated

[Repstellar]

Is it me or did Jordan push the other guy outta the way?

[ZLG4Ever]

@Repstellar it's not just you...even the announcer said he did
