Michael Jordan game saving... goaltend?

MJ comes through clutch to take the game into overtime with a block on an easy layup attempt...... or was that a goaltend?

it was actually a rebound cause the ball hit the rim after hitting the background into jordan's hands.

Looks like that guy just missed the shot n jordan just got the rebound

No goal tend. the ball never even made it above the rim! it was on it`s way down outside the rim. of course that`s after it touched the rim then the backboard!

clearly a very close call, but a rebound it is!

Now!....lets talk about the 12-2, 2012 Bulls! and D Rose

it's a rebound as the ball hit the rim, missing it, but with jordan's hand behind the ball, it' s hard to see if he touched the ball right after it hit the glass and causes the ball to miss, then that would be gt.  the ref had a clearer view, not that it means anything..

The shot did look like it might miss. But you can't hit the ball right after it hits the glass. That's an easy goaltending. Of course all the zombie Jordan jockers are coming here and voting that it wasn't goaltending.

I don't get it. whenever Mike jumped it look liked he could float but the laws of physics state otherwise. Someone explain this phenomenon.

[Hazardkyd]

it hit the glass and jordan got it so its goal tending

[berserkgatsu10]

first you can see in slo mot that ball hit the rim from bellow it can't go in to the basket then touch the glass and then MJ just take her like a rebound that is clear!!!

[ncsu24fan]

Clearly goaltending.

[chrisil1]

I love MJ but its kinda obvious that this was goaltending. People just cant believe it cause they like MJ too much.

@backyjr This is hard to see. It looks like it bounced off the backboard then may have hit the rim. If thats the case, then its a rebound. But if it didnt hit the rim off the backboard, then its a goaltend. Hard to tell. I think it hit the rim and Mj touched it. Which came first (Mj touching the ball or the ball hitting the rim) is the difficult thing to see.

@mhlakersfan Dude, if you shoot the ball, and it keeps on twirling round on round on top of the ring, you can not touch it. If you do: goaltending.

But about this shot, I do not know. Only MJ has this kind of wizardry up his sleeve. And I allow him to trick us , because he is: his AIRNESS
