Michael Jordan 1991 Finals: Gm 4 Vs. LA Lakers, 28pts.

MJ entered this game with a severely bruised toe which he suffered at the end of Game 3 on a miraculous clutch shot over Vlade Divac. Limited in overall mobility, one would have thought MJ would take more jumpers or resort to taking 10+ three pointers like most perimeters today. But of course not. MJ picked his spots and opponents and attacked the rim as usual with gorgeous, spectacular moves to the hole for maximum efficiciency and psychological damage to the other team. Shooting 11-20 and dishing 13 assists, it was a supreme performance on the greatest stage. In addition, he and Scottie switched on Magic throughout the game. With an intense LA crowd, MJ was in steely control with crisp passes to teammates, calm aggressiveness and confident poise. And as Marv caps it perfectly at the end, it's a good thing LA didn't see a healthy MJ that night.

For the record, MJ would end the series with some preposterous numbers: 31.2ppg, 6.6 rebs, 11.4 assists, 2.8 steals, 1.4 blocks, 56.64% FG, 50% 3FG and 85% FT).

Jordan has the best everything bro.

THe only thing he wasnt number one at was the post and thats due to size and position.

HE IS THE GOAT

To hell with all these people saying Kobe or Lebron.

man, i was two when this happened. i take it from the video at the beginning that this was when MJ was peaking in fame and glory. i wish i'd been old enough to watch him during this time... must have been really exciting watching him finally earn his first championship
