Bulls vs Heat 1997 - Game 5 - Michael Jordan 28 points

This was personal.

MJ came out with guns blazing, finished with 28 points and the Bulls closed out the Heat in game five of the Eastern Conference Finals, 100-87.

Still not a great shooting performance for MJ - he hit just 11 of 31 shots. But with Scottie Pippen out for most of the game with a foot injury and with all the hype around the game, Jordan admitted to pressing things a little and trying to do too much.

Nonetheless, the Bulls got a solid team effort and earned a spot in the NBA Finals for the fifth time in seven years.

The Utah Jazz would join them after beating Houston in the Western Conference Finals.

"And Michael would serve notice to the Heat that he was on a personal misson".
