This was better than Bron and Kobe's MSG performances.

MJ is the best but there are so may great players do n't take the charge they deserve!for example dominique was soooo great player and had some great battles vs mj.in this game he ''only" had 28p.11reb,but i also remember many 40+ games and a game he 57 points,of course mj anwer 4 months later when he had a 61points game!so great battles betwwen them,mj also had great battles with magic,drexler,barkley,b.king,i­siah,dumars,hardaway,payton,k.­johnson,mullin,r.miller,rice, but the best were vs bird!

@TheOtherView

Why do U think the league changed the rules to FAVOR perimeter players?

It was done to curtail a league besieged with guys with a LACK of formal training on the collegiate level, not to mention to create an "aesthetically appealing" game in hopes of increasing offense & efficiency, and to bring back longtime fans who'd stopped tuning in BECAUSE they saw a LACK of fundamentals & passion.

The league changed from being about substance & team play to individual style & money..

@mikjord

What "fundamentals" are missing from today's game?

What "passion" and "sacrifice" is missing now? Have you seen Kobe play?

@SPMJ, often I make myself to reminence just what it was like just before I could possibly dunk in bball. Immediately after I made use of the training system at 50-inch-vertical(dot)com - my game has been improving alot

drose just had a game similar to this against the hawks not too long ago :)

[dogeban]

please guys dont compare MJ, the God of basketball with any other player. No contest, he is the best

[mikjord]

It`s so frustrated to read that today`s basketball player is better player than twenty years ago. Well there are a lot of players that can dunk in more ways today than they back then. The handling skills are a little better. But the fundamentals are gone, the team play is also missing and the heart. The passion, the sacrifice is not in the game anymore. these guys just don`t have it. A 76ers `83 team any of the 80`s Lakers team, any of the Celts 80`s team, 89/90 Pistons team would cruise today

The Atlanta Hawks were a very athletic team back then. In fact they were the superior team. But The Bulls had Jordan. If you kids say that today`s NBA basketball is more competitive than the late 80`s you should notice just how many good athletes the Hawks had on Jordan in this game. There are only three major differences between nowdays and the golden days: the players are bulkier, less team oriented and heartless. The thing is no team today, nor player could stop Michael Jordan today.
