In this series deciding game, MJ attacked the basket with his usual finesse/ferocity to make sure the Bulls advanced to the next round. This is the game that features "The Shot" - the famous hanging jumper we keep seeing in all those highlights and commercials. But, people forget that that shot merely capped yet another masterful performance. MJ attacked the basket like man possessed to get his 44 points the hard way. People also forget that the Bulls lost to the Cavs in all 5 games during the regular season so they were not expected to challenge them at all. MJ's 39.8 ppg, 5.8 rebs and 8.2 asts during the series made sure that the playoffs told a different story. As usual, when it mattered most, on national TV, Game 5 in the playoffs, MJ raised his play and continued his flair for the dramatic to add to his legacy as the greatest playoff and clutch performer ever.

Ahhhh......those were the days. This game (with MJ as the star) layed the foundation for the dynasty in the decade to come. Now the tables have turned. The Cavs with LeBron are now a chocolate city powerhouse while my Bulls are playin like some vanilla suburbanites. I hope Derrick Rose puts some flare and swagger back to my team. Someday, we'll go all the way.

LOL Never thought of it that way.

This game just goes to show how great Jordan was. He hits a shot, which by today's standards would be a game winner. Ehlo comes back and hits another "game winner" but leaves 3 seconds left on the clock. Jordan still wants the ball, gets it, and hits another game winner. He basically hit two game winners this game. Unbelievable.

And all were really spectacular to see except for Red Right 88, and The Fumble.

Yeah, it's pretty weird that nearly all the greatest moments in North American sporting history have resulted in a disappointment for Cleveland teams.

that shot, that haunting image ...that moment is definately up there with images of the first moonlanding, jfk assasination, and elvis's death, what a moment in history, it will never be forgotten

GoCelticsNow (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
The Drive, The Catch, The Shot, Red Right 88, and The Fumble. Cleveland's a cursed sports city.
