Bulls vs. Sixers - 1996 (72-10 season) Michael Jordan 48 points in 3 qtrs

http://youtube.com/Scottie33Pippen

More trash-talking in the media preceded this game with Jerry Stackhouse saying he beat Jordan in some one on one games and Vernon Maxwell saying "to hell with Jordan and Pippen". Jordan came out on fire and ended with 48 in 3 qtrs while also making life hell for Stackhouse and Maxwell on the defensive end. Pippen added 20 points, 10 assists and 5 boards. The Bulls scored 42 points in the 3rd qtr and put the game away and the 4th qtr was basically garbage time for the bench.

Jordan Rule #1 - Don't cross MJ through the media. You will not win.

Jordan Rule #2 - Don't cross MJ AND Pippen through the media. You will not win.

Jordan Rule #3 - If Jordan has the flu, don't show up. You will not win.

Jordan Rule #4 - Do not engage in any mind games with Jordan, Pippen, and least of all, Rodman. You will not win.

The Bulls seemed to take great pleasure in throttling this team. What kind of dumbass would talk trash in the media about Jordan and Pippen? Why get them fired up? Jordan especially. Vernon Maxwell = idiot.

@MIKESOWELL Yeah, i know what you mean, i was a little dissapointed Phil took MJ out as well. He would have hit 60 points easily in that game, i guess since the Bulls we're torching Philly so bad on they're home floor, he decided to take MJ out. The Bulls were up by more than 30 points going into the fourth period. The Bulls had so many games like this in '96 and '97, where MJ, Pip & Worm hit the bench early, and that definantly costed them points, rebounds,assists,steals,blocks­, etc.

@delfra70 I was mad that Jackson took him out. I wanted Jordan to score at least 60 this game.

I remember this game very well, i remember the hoopla leading up to this game with Stackhouse and Maxwell popping off at the mouth talking trash. Now trash talk is a part of the game, i understand that, but MJ is that one dude you don't talk shit to, you just don't. Just let your play do the talking. I remember watching this game and just seeing MJ absolutely torch and annihilate both young dumb Stackhouse and MJ's so called rival Mad Max. MJ had 48 points in only 3 quarters,'96 bulls was sick.

This is just sick @ 5:35 when the commentators are like "...and listen to the crowd, they're on their feet for that one..." with Scottie-to-Dennis... and they're in freaking Philly! That is sad when your home crowd is cheering for the other team!!!

42 pts in a qtr is just...no comment.

Pippen's subtlety kills teams without them even knowing.

They almost always focus on MJ, but Pippen is like killing them softly.

Stats tell very little story about Pippen, LBJ has alot to learn.

Freeze 4:10. Sums up the entire vid.
