NBA's 60 Greatest Playoff Moments: #43

Kerr's Game-Winner; Game 6, 1997 NBA Finals:
"After Michael Jordan beat the Jazz at the buzzer of Game 1, the Bulls expected MJ might be double-teamed with the score tied at 86 near the end of Game 6. Reserve sharpshooter Steve Kerr said he'd be ready to knock down the game-winner and he was, hitting a 17-footer to send Chicago to its fifth NBA championship." - NBA.com

It's hilarious that Kerr hit that shot and he probably still couldn't get seated at Michael's restaurant.

Why is this and Paxson's game winning shots only on 47 and 32? Just because they weren't Jordan's?

@chabowker...he didn't travel. He stood on his pivot foot, moved his other foot and jumped off both feet and then passed it.

[chabowker]

Does it look like Michael travelled to anybody else? Not hatin', love MJ but it looks like he took extra steps.
