[yaboy1414]

2;37 clean ass play

[shine2345]

KEVIN HARLEN IS SOOO OVER EXCITED, TERRIBLE

[Beez827]

the dunk @ 6:43 was nice

[BobyCasasola87]

What's the name of this comentator?, he's really good at blast moments.

[unclebob5]

Lebron travelled.

[rmur23]

I bet if you were in a gym by yourself for 48 minutes you couldn't shoot 64% without a turnover.

[rsx2]

THAT'S WITH A CRACKED KNUCKLE!!!

[MrEyadhamad]

Scottie Pipen is so underrated... he is almost as good as MJ

[ta4life27]

@MrEyadhamad his really good but not really jordans level

[szaret1]

8:05....dennis rodman has the best run ever

[CroPETROforever]

I am watching basketball 20 years... I watched Michael and I watched Kobe on TV all this years... I'm opsessed with basketball... AND I CAN SAY ONLY THIS: MICHAEL IS THE BEST OF ALL TIME... Kobe is excellent and he will be for sure among top 5 best players of all time, but MICHAEL... man... he was from another planet :)

[Dkouts57]

@CroPETROforever

kobe wont be top 5 sorry

[SrustinLim]

Zero Turnovers. That's impressive.

[Dkouts57]

@SrustinLim

he had a 51pt game no turnovers

[energytic]

what do you mean by better? 46% FG?

[bigezee11]

Kevin Harlan is great..

[ergopex7]

super mecz

[dalampiras]

Well 40 points is the best Kobe can come up with in age 32 Jordan could come up with 40 in like every night in age 36 why is people comparing them?

[jonnyrisas]

@dalampiras kobe can still score over 40 at will...charles barkley ate his comments...in the playoffs...who says kobe can't score 40 anymore...can't for kobe or jordan is a bold thing to say...and very ignorant...don't throw the word can't around like that...you can't...kobe can..

[dalampiras]

@jonnyrisas Lol Kobe fan,here you haven't read my comment well i never used the word "can't"I know Kobe can will him self like the playoffs to score 30 or 40 plus to win the game but the difference here is more than obvious.If you are trying to prove that Kobe is better than Mike then you are an idiot.

[jonnyrisas]

@dalampiras im not trying to prove anything....im just trying to stop the hate....people make the comparisons...and start the arguments....it's all bullshit..on every MJ video i see...everyone is anti-kobe...im from L.A and i know kobe is along with jordan the best all around player the game has ever seen...there is no rivalry....kobe can score...as many as he wants...81 my friend..81...and many more incredible high scoring games...the best perimeter basketball player i've ever seen since MJ...

[dalampiras]

@jonnyrisas So that's what i'm saying stop the comparisons MJ>Kobe for ever.But Kobe is the closest ever to MJ plus he is the only reason i watch NBA nowadays i hate nobody i'm a huge Kobe fan.

[jonnyrisas]

@dalampiras i would never say kobe or anyone else is better than jordan...

lets let kobe do kobe...and jordan well....what can i say...lol

[dalampiras]

@jonnyrisas Well said;)

[energytic]

@jonnyrisas 81 points with a poor defensive team

[energytic]

@jonnyrisas kobe cant score 50 pts at age 35-38 anymore

[jonnyrisas]

@energytic are you sure about that?? he does not need to....cuz he plays with a great team..

but to stay he can't, did he tell you that personally? cuz i don't see how you could know....and i know what his answer would be...i mean, his jumper and footwork is better than ever...i don't see why not

[energytic]

@jonnyrisas he doesnt need to tell me cuz he knows he cant. are you sure his jumper is better than ever? 46%FG? are you mentally challenged or what????

[jonnyrisas]

@energytic i watched the game agaisnt the celtics and then the knicks a couple nights back....and yes he has perfected these things...but he plays a different game today....i can tell...and it works better,,,not so many highlights but they win championships.....im not mentally challenge,,, im just not a hater

[ta4life27]

@energytic  kobe is slowing down

[BlackCatAllday]

Lol Kevin Harlan sounds like he creamed his pants like 10 times this game.

[timfosho]

I like how MJ does this simplest dunk and the announcers go crazy. OMG MICHAEL JORDAN WITH THE INCREDIBLE PLAY WHAT HANG TIME INCREDIBLY BODY MOTION AMAZING PENIS GIRTH

[dogeban]

MJ was so great even at 96-98.No competition..he seemed to be wiser saving energy but when it was needed,he would put his superman suite again and fly to the basket to open the defence

[DrakeBellsGirl27]

Thank The Lord for These old NBA Videos. NBA Rocks forever and ever.

[rnm88]

gotta love the broadcasters who aren't used to calling MJ lol

[SwaggerLikeUz]

Great Post man i love watching these Games! MJ & the Bulls..Rocked

[actoman1]

kobe bryant is the greatest basketball player ever

[actoman1]

kobe bryant is better than michael jordan

[jagemobe]

@actoman1 well I'm happy that even though you lost the criminal case against your Kobe, you were able to recoup something in the civil court.

[SwaggerLikeUz]

@actoman1 Kobe Bryant isnt even better than Magic so how is he better than JOrdan.  Magic will always be the Man when it comes to the Lakers no disrespect to Kobe. ..Peace

[DrakeBellsGirl27]

@actoman1 Are you mad Man. Michael Jordan is better than the Mean Rotten stupid Kobe.

[thebigaznguy]

love the crowds  going crazy when rodman hit that 3 which was pure too

[uberathlete]

Whatever Kevin Harlan is smoking I want it.

[PEPEelZAPATISTA]

Layup switching hands by Jordan at :28 seconds is monster. That play is underrated.

[waihong001]

jordan's assists are as exciting as his shots and dunks

[jaa0702]

at 6:45 he looks like he steps on a step when he is dunking on the replay..

[itakewhatismine]

0:53 that spinning fade-away shot is really hard to pull off

[aak7230]

If you enter, and there is a player introduction of Bulls of this match, would you show it by all means?

[03svt04]

GOAT

[jwatts456]

KG IS THA TRUTH

[mafoco82]

lol @ the worm with that final 3

[letmesee911]

Damn He's just abusing Anthony Peeler. Then Rodman backing up hitting a jumper as the shot clock expired!

I feel so blessed to have grown up during the Jordan era and the Kobe era. Once in a lifetime.

[Patriotsa11day]

I like Al Michaels for his commentary I like Mike Breen's Bang@!!!!!!! and Bob Costas calling the NBA finals was epic.....But Harlan makes the game crunk

[Kidz24]

wow this guy needs a chill pill

over excited xD

[Airman32292]

my two favorite players Michael Jordan and Kevin Garnett

[abomination2118]

same here but u have 2 out kobe in der lmaoo

[miteyboosh23]

fuck kobe he's a poser

[DrakeBellsGirl27]

@miteyboosh23 Ya Kobe Bryant Sucks. He is no better than Michael Jordan and Shaq and Kevin Garnett.

[jonnyrisas]

@miteyboosh23 Stop with all the hate bullshit.....kobe isn't trying to be or do like anybody...he  learned from the best in MJ,.gathered what he could from MJ's game....and thats why he is the best in the game today....i don't wanna hear about no lebron james or KD...kobe is the closest thing to MJ...stop hating...please!

[bengolsal20]

same here dude! those two are my favorites too..

[ronaldok20]

5:48

[videosensei]

this is his old style i love when he does nfl

[BigBidNess45]

Kevin Harlan Pwns

[ThaTruth223]

4:55

[Pimpdaddy992k]

You idiots most be some Pat Summerall-Lovin as bitches. Kevin Harlan is fukkin awesome!

[xcgull010]

fukkin haterz yall live 2 hate kevin harlan iz one if not the best commentator d0ing his thing who else has catch phrases 4 basketball damn dont listen if u a hater turn ur volume on zer0 cuz minez g0nna be turned up

[tawfiqmp]

lmao Kevin Harlan is too entergetic, I didn't think I would see him like this...

[arkade2345]

god kevin harlan is annoying. he has a fucking heart attack about everything and overreacts to every move!

[popeyeisgood]

yea.

he actually makes the game less watchable. the way he talks doesnt give me more info on what i dont see in the tv. and i much rather have the old emotionless commentators speaking like a machine than this overreacting freak.

[nunadas]

I dont like his style either. Gets too corny. Specially that "WITH NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE!!" line he uses, get a grip for god sakes

[ThaTruth223]

Would you like a dull commentator to call the game or someone like rick kamla who is way annoying than harlan

[eoinmccorry]

just gotta love that commentator... love the passion for the game! but MJ will do that to ya! he is the greatest of all time and the best sports person ever...! Ireland.

[falkner23]

kevin harlan is tha man, hes a sick commentator how could you not like him

[JCR1992]

i hate kevin harlan too fuckin dramatic

[peteandjordanlover09]

laugh my ass off u got to be one of the most dumbest stupidest person to say that i mean Kevin Harlan is one of the most dramatic commentators of all time"RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES"

[JCR1992]

who the fuck are u and why are u always answering one of my comments

[roncarl9]

kg and steph, the good ol days (sigh)

[MClonet4]

i agree with Flames this announcer is awful..he gets excited way too much watching men play with a ball

[hoangal]

I think Kevin Harlan is the best announcer in the game. Definitely my favorite when he gets excited. A young KG and a young Marbury together was a pretty awesome combo. Til Steph left and became a cancer everywhere he went. Had he stayed they might've been unbelievable.

[FlamesXT10]

harlan always over-reacts though, how do you like him?

[mirasolcarlo21]

hes a great announcer! what kin of commentator u like?a boring one! hahaha! poor judgement!

[dimedropper1992]

tht announcers awsome when hes intense yo!

[FlamesXT10]

this announcer is fucking annoying

[mackcrusher]

Try turning down the volume and watch the game instead of listening to him. That ought to do it.

[SPMJ]

LOL! Kevin Harlan used to be nuts back in the day. Losing it over the most routine plays. He's really toned it down it since getting paired with Doug Collins 3 years ago.

[ForEmily23]

I think Kevin Harlan wants to go on a romantic date with Michael Jordan. I'm talking fine wine, authentic Italian dinner by candlelight. Maybe some Barry White in the background.

[mackcrusher]

I hope you're not serious, man... XD XD

[vidaa11]

Kevin Harlan is hlarious to me. Every time he says BUCKLE UP! it's so funny. He's on edge on every play.

[mnysvr]

Paging OP, "mlynch07": Where are KG's stats? Good post though, 5/5!

[dv122]

the white announcer is too loud and uses too much of catch phrases, i get headache listening to this

[FlamesXT10]

kevin harlan ruins every great game, he is a terrible announcer, fuckkit

[mackcrusher]

Well, instead of listening to the announcers, how about muting the sound and watching the stars play? Will that help?

[Wardfolio]

when Dennis Rodman start making threes you can pretty much go home. Game Won lol

[topoy6]

"Michael Jordan pulls a houdini!!!" Buckle uP for Michael Jordan!!!" gotta love kevin Harlan...

[Sicklesale]

Mj's dunks for so amazing yet he never hung on the rim and never slammed it down any harder than necessary.

[Flowerofchaos]

RODMAN great 3point shooter

[mars040520]

i love how the announcer sounds amazed around 20-24 when garnett goes 2 FOR 2 TO START THE GAME lol

[uberathlete]

lol Mr. Intensity Kevin Garnett met Mr. Super Intensity Michael Jordan.

[jeanrollan]

Jordan and Pippen are out there like their out on the playground. Like the commentator said, buckle p for MJ!

[jeanrollan]

That's how you're supposed to sign. He's one of the best.

[blackadam06]

As highlighted by the commentator on this video, MJ played that entire year with a torn ligament/cracked knuckle bone on his index finger..on his SHOOTING hand! He shot 46% that year & that was a "DOWN" year for him LOL!!

[jordanlover23]

Yeah, it took Jordan about 15-20 games to adjust to the injury on his shooting hand. He shot something like 41-42% from the field and 69% from the line (for a career 51% FG/84% FT shooter, so you know something was wrong). After he adjusted his form/technique after that initial 15-20 games, I think he shot around 48% FG and 85% FT.

[Tom87O]

Gotta love the commentator:-)

[basketballfreak24]

peeler seemed like he submitted after awhile. i dont care if he scores 100; u never supposed to quit. have some pride for yourself.

[topoy6]

right between the eye!!!

Kevin Harlan one of tha most unique commentators in sports...

[topoy6]

buckle up foR michael jordan!!!

michael jordan pulls a houdini!!!

[hoopsencyclopedia]

Back when KG was thought to be the '7 foot MJ' and Marbury was 'Starbury'. I love that reverse at 6:00 since MJ doesn't even use the glass. I remember around this time, Marbury was interviewed in Slam Magazine and his quote on MJ: "I knew what MJ was about before playing him but MAN, how can one person have that much game? I mean, I know I got game, I know I got game but man, to see him play is just incredible."

[hkchrisnz]

da commentator is too excited .... lol

[jordanesquemike]

Thanks a lot for this gr8 vid dude, I hope u can keep uploading this kind of rare game for us to enjory! cheers.

[glr311975]

the jordan xiii black toe is being re-released along with the jordan x in january 08 as a package.310 bones is alot but after watching this...i have to get those shoes man.

[MIKESOWELL]

Simply the greatest

[blaman6]

this announcer was sporting wood the entire broadcast

[LiveUSsports]

Live NBA on your PC this week:

8:00pm ET Houston Rockets @ New Orleans Hornets

10:00pm ET Seattle Supersonics @ Sacremento Kings

10:00pm ET Milwaukee Bucks @ Utah Jazz

2:00pm ET Maccabi Tel Aviv Elite - New York Knicks

[furyofdawolfx]

thanks for showing highlights of the whole team and not just MJ. That was really a special team.

Btw I know MJ has superior quickness, strenght, and great head fakes, but Peeler just stood there!

[Retrolock]

probably Peeler was feeling helpless, he probably thought it was no use challenging MJ's shot coz it was gonna go in anyways lol

[toekneeshin23]

Thanks for the regular uploads mlynch, especially as it seems you have a lot of rarely seen games. I agree with you, btw...I love watching the 1984-1993 MJ just for the wow factor, but in many ways, I appreciate the 1996-1998 MJ even more.  His evolution as a player is definitely one of the most compelling things about his career.

[mlynch07]

Thanks guys. Even though MJ was more aerial and spectacular in the first phase of his career (84-93), I really enjoy watching him play in 96-98 where he demonstrates a complete mastery of the game. He's so much calmer and wiser, and scoring seems to come to him almost easier since he doesn't try to force anything at all. He just takes what the defense gives him, and it looks so effortless.

[DALMX006]

thanks mlynch for another great game. I especially love 1998 games from michael. he was definitely at the top of his game. Not forcing anything, doing exactly what he needed to do in order for the team to win.Plus, what a vertical for a 35 year old player , just simply impressive.

[popeyeisgood]

hahah i hate the way kevin got way too excited!

i remember seeing some old mj games from the 80s and the commentators were not as excited even though jordan's plays were even more ridiculous.

[jmcorpuz23]

forever jordan! fcuk kobe!

[char4ever]

i love dennis' 3 pointer. lol!

[andgar923]

That was lovely.

Thanks!

[SPMJ]

LOL, Kevin Harlan sure has calmed down over the years.

MJ was such a master in the post. Undoubtebly the greatest post-up guard of ALL TIME. Phil even called him the great post up player of his generation. Hmmm...I'd say he's 2nd behind Hakeem.

Thanks for another great game, mylynch07!

[bChow12]

haha did you see that???
