Steve Kerr hits the 1997 shot for the Chicago Bulls' fifth NBA title

The 1996-97 season closes with the Chicago Bulls going for two straight titles and their fifth overall in the NBA Finals vs. the Utah Jazz. The Jazz, down 3 games to 2, lead going into the fourth quarter at the United Center in Chicago. However, the less drained (from the flu) Michael Jordan and the rest of the Bulls rally, and the game is tied at 86 with under 30 seconds left. Everyone is expecting MJ to take the final shot, but Steve Kerr at the beginning of the clip say that he'll be ready for a pass. Sure enough, the Jazz collapse on MJ defensively, the pass goes to Kerr, and the rest is history. Pippen preserves the game defensively to prevent Utah from tying the game.The announcers (in order) are probably Brent Musberger (likely national radio play-by-play), Neil Funk (the Chicago radio play-by-play), and Brent again. For entertainment purposes only, internet download/fair quality, ABC/NBA Finals commercial. Have not, am not, will not make anything off of this.
