Michael Jordan's 69 Point Game - 1990 Cavaliers vs. Bulls

[kanyeezys]

2:27 thats not the only thing you were thinking of.

[kevinsaramayaan]

I had this game on video tape (I had all Bulls games from 89 to 92 on tape). I borrowed it to a friend and he taped over it. May he RIP.

[horaiyo]

Poor ehlo haha.

[ichenqlabbzo9]

Michael Jordan is the Best ever

[SausageFrosted]

haha... 69

[kidjoker281]

"we're gonna see a new single game scoring record in the Colosseum, unless jordan is run over by a bus" lol, 

[kelvinnuamhwow1]

maybe the reason jordan played so good and disrespected the cavaliers was because in 23 years they would have lebron james

[anthony44g]

What documentary is this, ?

[Kdubslugga]

I went to church with Mark Price in Akron, i asked him once, what did Michael say to you towards the end of the game that night. Mark said "were in church man"! HAHAHA

[VATO187GD]

Kobe watched this video...

[paulie1984t]

what doco is this fotage from

[GNinjaProductions]

Haha 69 great number!

[gn01167661]

i found it hard to do Jordan's famous celebration

[lilcrazyaznboy]

69 is dirty..

[SuperMakintos]

jordan could've scored 10000 on todays cavs playing 1 vs 5

[LukeBCtown]

good thing i wasnt born yet. of course as i was born the cavs were busy blowing a 4th quarter lead vs the sonics.

[Bulls23331]

I don't think it was a great idea by the Cleveland newspaper to write an article of how great a defender Craig Elo was, because your just feeding Jordan's competitive fire. The only other player who could and i said could do that would be Kobe now. And when i say could thats a big could. Jordan is was and still is the greatest of all time most skilled maybe not most competitive and motivated yes sir his drive and desire to win unmatched by another player in history

[CaveKanem]

@Bulls23331 ....Indeed..

[rubenmorales19]

 MJ would average 50 PPG today.

[neverwin189]

"unless he gets ran over by a bus"

LMFAO

[gofeedtina]

81>69, its simple math.

[nwilliams11111]

@gofeedtina

69 points against a playoff team > 81 points against your little sister, its simple math

[nwilliams11111]

@gofeedtina

Shit 63 points against an NBA champion IN THE PLAYOFFS > 81 points against your little sister, its simple math.

[gofeedtina]

@nwilliams11111 Do you know how to count? Look at a damn number line, 81 is greater than 63 and 69.

[jaranarm]

@gofeedtina

Jordan's 63 against a championship Celtic team on the road and 69 against a playoff Cavs team on the road are way more impressive than Kobe's 81 against a mediocre Raptor team at home. I don't think Kobe can score 30 during Jordan's time when players were allowed to hand check, use their forearms beyond the post, or camp in the lane.

[AznAndy562]

THUMBS UP ON THIS( i hate, hate, hate how people say jordan would of been bad in NBA TODAY when they are all young and NEVER seen his dam games its annoying they have no idea what they are talking about, acting as if they where born and watching michael jordan during his prime. PLUS they probally wouldnt be watching basketball right now if it wasnt jordan in the first place, basketball wasnt as popular till jordan came and amazed people with his air hopes and fade away shots

[VinmanMJ23]

I saw that game live on TV back in 1988 or 1989, whenever it was. I was hoping he would hit the 70-point mark, but it was not to be. It wasn't really a very exciring game compared to some of his others.

[batmanrocks245678]

go bulls and lakers!!!!!!!!!

[Jackbookowski89]

If you are really fan of nba you must have heard about NBAPremium(.)tk one of the best movie database

[LEAFBLOWA3]

Yeah fuck Cleavland!!!

[blackezi3]

this 69 point game will always be better than Kobe's 81 point game. Jordan had a complete game along wit 18 rebounds

[TheDukeWontFreeMoses]

@blackezi3 i would agree but think of how incredible the defenders are now a-days, as well as the difficulty to play that long while still playing effectively

[blackezi3]

@TheDukeWontFreeMoses even if the players today were better defenders, the NBA doesnt allow perimeter defenders to thrive (hand-checking, touch fouls). And 90's defenders were far superior than now, which today players look for highlight plays instead.

What players today could match up with defenders like Payton at the 1, Jordan or Hardaway at the 2, Pippen at the 3 or 4, Malone and Rodman at the 4, and Mutombo and Mourning at the 5?

[CaveKanem]

@blackezi3 ...He Was Playing A .500 Team & It Went Into Overtime...Kobe Outscored The Championship Mavs With 63 Points In Only 3 Quarters....Regardless...It's 2 Different Players From 2 Different Eras...Either U Live With That Or Accept The Fact That They're Both The Greatest Of Their Eras...

[blackezi3]

@CaveKanem Get a life and stop tryna pump up Kobe to be on Jordan's level. I'm talkin about the 81 point game...against the Raptors!! When Did I even mention the 63 point game against the Mavs????

[CaveKanem]

@blackezi3 ...Why Did U Even Mention Kobe, Dickhead? Because U Wanted To Compare & Downplay His Feats..U Could've Just Said "THIS WAS A GREAT PERFORMANCE BY JORDAN! NO ONE COULD EVER TOP THIS!" But U Mentioned Kobe's 81 Points Like It Was Nothing.So Why Can't I Mention His 62 Points In 3 Quarters? Stop Gettin' All Butthurt..Haha..When It's All Said & Done They'll Both Be Hall Of Fame & @ Top The Record Books..So Stop Making It A Competition & Crying When Someone Thinks Or Says Different, Chump.

[blackezi3]

@CaveKanem LMAO look at you getting bent out of shape. I bet you have a shrine and pray to Kobe everyday lol. By the way, im not a huge Jordan fan so stop assuming. You're trying so hard to put Kobe on Jordan's level when its not working. Yes Kobe has offensive talent, but thats it. David Thompson scored 78 points in the 70's, but we don't see him being compared to Jordan. Kobe's only famous cause he copy's Jordan so much. Get a life smh

[CaveKanem]

@blackezi3 ... Kobe Has Plenty Of Moves That Jordan Didn't..I Watched Both...Jordan Was More Athletic @ A Time When Most Weren't...Hence Craig Ehlo Being Regarded As A Defensive Player & Bill Cartwright Still Being A Starting Center Back Then..Haha..If Jordan Got A Fastbreak, WHO IN THE LEAGUE COULD EVEN ATTEMPT TO STOP HIM BACK THEN? NOBODY...Different Players For Different Eras...& David Thompson Scored 73..Wilt Scored 78 + 73 Twice In The 60's..That's Y U Never Hear Bout Thompson

[blackezi3]

@CaveKanem You really need to read your history. Micheal Cooper, Clyde Drexler, Dominique Wilkins, Charles Barkley, Shawn Kemp, Dennis Rodman, Joe Dumars, Alex English, Dennis Johnson played in his era and were all athletic and could keep up with him. And those are just off the top of my head

[CaveKanem]

@blackezi3 ...Jordan Killed Drexler..Was Barkley's Worst Nightmare..Joe Dumars & The Pistons Had To Invent The Jordan Rules By The Way He Was Killin' Them....Dennis Johnson Didn't Even Matter To MJ Anymore After '88....Dominique Wilkins Was More Of An Offensive Matchup If ANYTHING...I'll Leave U Coop, Reign Man & Rodman...But Those Other Cats Weren't A Factor...They Were Good/Great Players...But They Couldn't Stop Jordan...

[blackezi3]

@CaveKanem Jordan never really killed Drexler. Portland leaving him open in the '92 Finals for him to make those threes isn't "killing". I still put Jordan out of the top 5 all time though. And for Kobe, he could be stopped. Tashaun Prince neutralized him in the '04 finals. Pierce neutralized him in the '08 finals. The reason I can't put Kobe in the top 20 is his lack of leadership/clutch moments, and his ability to be neutralized against great defenses

[shaqpopcorn34]

@blackezi3 ....in case u missed it,the 1992 finals went 6 games.......jordan making those 3's happened in game 1,and that wasnt even mikes highest scoring game of the series....

mike= 35.8 ppg vs drexler in 92 finals...and drexler wasn2 2nd in mvp that yr to mike

mike= 35.2 ppg vs drexler in head to heads in reg.season

drexler was a great player,but mike definitely played better

kobe=sidekick for life

[blackezi3]

@shaqpopcorn34 Yeah, exactly totally agree with you. Jordan is a way better player than Drexler. And thank sportscenter/NBA TV media for overhyping Kobe. I think it due to Jordan's retirement and Grant Hill's injury plagued career. He's just a glorified role player

[ItsFatBigNGreek]

@blackezi3 stop comparing maaaaan!!!!i hate guys like you!!!they are two different players.even kobe says stop that comparition mj is better and i learned a lot from him!!81 points are not easy thing to do!!!WHY DONT YOU GUYS JUST SAY KOBE IS AN AMAZING PLAYER TOO??

[blackezi3]

@ItsFatBigNGreek Nooo he's not. He is a great offensive player, just like hundreds of other great offensive players in history. Especially with all the hand-checking being outlawed, 81 points would be easy for a perimeter player

[75samuel75]

@blackezi3 U forgot to mention that Cleveland had real basketball players on their team.

[TheReason77]

@blackezi3 Only a HATER would say as much. He got 81 in REGULATION, No OT!! Wilt and Jordans' were both in OT....

[chichoos07]

@TheReason77 yeah against one of the worst teams in the league and of the past years..

[shawnchon117]

@TheReason77 in REGULATION, No OT???

well yeah they sucked lmao and i was there haha

[Gikanks556]

@blackezi3 Give kobe some props, damn, Stop riding jordans dick

[AndreasHallem]
