"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan
@M Greatest sport? Sport cant be considered great if its popular. For example if saying stupid things (such as your comment) was the most watched sport that doesn't make it "by far the greatest". I have nothing against football but hear me out. It's too boring (imo, many others agree) , basketball, handball are boths more dynamic thus being more interesting to watch. And if we don't look at the spectator side of it football isnt much complex (example: wrestler, gimnasticks guy, karate dude can play football 1000 times better than footballers can do their sports). Physique wise footballers have strong legs and running endurance, not all round as many other sports. Soo...why is football "by far the greatest sport"? Bcs you are biased? Bcs its tHe mOsT pOpULaR? Neither is a valid reason.
This is MJ’s most impressive ring. Unlike 96 & 97 where everyone else stood no chance against them, the 98 bulls were a shell of that. Scottie was rarely healthy, Dennis was not productive for big chunks of the year, the other role players all visibly declined, MJ himself wasn’t getting younger, and the massive internal turmoil within the organization between Krause, Phil, and the players. Yet, they won because they still had Michael Jordan on their team who carried and willed the bulls to this title.
Michael not only scored the *winning shot* that gave the Bulls their last championship, he also scored *45pts* in his final game for them - the number he wore when he came back from retirement in 1995. Truly the stuff of a Hollywood movie!! 🐐 #23
This game is better than any game ive seen since Kobe's prime. I don't watch soft basketball. I dont watch what they call the NBA today. If they wanted to rename the league to the WNBA they should have just done it by now instead of pussyfooting around it. 00s NBA basketball on back is what i like. Actual TOUGHNESS and AGGRESSION coming from these tough athletes.
The last three minutes he got: 8 points in total 4 free throws made 2 steals 1 rebound 1 clutch layup AND 1 amazing cross over to put the game away GOAT

Its nuts. In the last 1:11 of live play no Bull touches the ball but Michael. He got a rebound, 2 free throws, a quick score, a steal and a game winner. The amount of pressure he played with and accepted is insane. His teammates allowed this because they knew he would bring them home in the clutch. How could his GOAT status ever be questioned?
@@acornsucks2111 its definitely not the same. Hitting a wide open shot, compared to doing every single thing neccessary for your team to win. If you want to expand it, you can say in the last 3 minutes not a single Bull scored. But Jordan was tired, evidence of this is in his short front rimming jumpshots. Yet somehow, he managed to perfectly sink an 18 foot jumper with just seconds to go. Everyone knew where the ball was going, yet he still managed to make it happen.
@@dontatme__ You just posted that no one else was shooting the ball down the stretch and I pointed out two examples of your flawed comment. Reading your post is lowering my IQ.
@@acornsucks2111 😂😂😂 your IQ wasnt high to begin with. You provided two examples that have absolutely nothing to do with the sequence referred to in my comment. Trying so hard to "appear intelligent" and you can't even stay on topic🤣
Layup, Steal, Stepback, Title The last 39 seconds of this game PERFECTLY sums him up. Has there ever been a series of plays that personified a player any better?
LeBron 2013 finals- Titanic block on Splitter, Hustles back on offense and finds Ray Allen in the corner for 3, next on defense pokes ball out for a steal, follows it with fastbreak dunk. MJ and LBJ are the two best ever by a mile. No one like them.

Who wants to watch a bunch of 120 lbs guys lightly jog around a field for 3 hours and score once or twice? Make the field smaller and implement a shot clock and make it more violent and it will be some entertainment.

Don't care what anyone says, that was the golden age of the NBA. Every team had a mega star but then there was MJ, not getting past him. What a great time to be a Chicagoan
I agree the golden era foresure. Every team had a megastar and at least 2 other superstars. So many players were overshadowed by the mega star but yes best time to be a ball fan
It is still incredible to me that no Chicago Bull possesses the ball in the final minute and 42 seconds. Michael grabs every rebound, takes every single shot, every free throw, even steals the ball. The only thing he didn’t do was inbound the ball to himself.
facts! and you see his poise and ice cold delivery from the free throw line like no one was there.. it's like the pressure did nothing to him he already seen him self and the bulls winning. that man was a cold blooded killer ! so many legendary players will go to their graves ring less because #23 stood in their way. GOAT!
@@raidersacdc4892 all I wanna say to further prove your point is 2011 finals and 2017 game 3. Jordan would never have that type of performance like lebron did
Anyday anytime Bron gonna smoke any team. Game has evolved alot in current NBA. Haven't seen any player till now toying Bron like Iverson did with Jordan back then.
Jordan with the lay up, Jordan with free throws, Jordan with the rebound, Jordan with the steal, Jordan with the Game Winner... The man put Chicago on his back...
+Realjayrome Exactly The refs suspending Draymond and like you said Kyrie hitting the game winning shot. No game 7. Jordan never played in a game 7 in the NBA Finals
He went to the free throw line on two very questionable calls. I think Stockton got there on time and I didn't see how the other was a foul. Jordan missed 3 shots in the last three minutes and passed the ball probably 5 times. If this is your GOAT. Y'all can have him. I'll take Kareem every day
+Bryon Carter lololol. Lay up, steal, final shot. Win. Bye bye. 6 final 6 rings. 6 fmvp 10+ scoring champ. 5 mvp. 40 years old still could score 40 points. Career 30 ppg. 50% fg. That's many ppl goat. U cherry pick a certain period of game and then compared to ur goat. Lololololol.
Basketball isn't the same without MJ. I recorded every game of the Bulls and Michael. They're on DVDs now so every once in a while I'll relive the excitement of watching him play, it's awesome.
Unlike the bad boy pissedons, the Jazz at least showed class. Stockton and Malone both had the decency to go congratulate the Bulls on the team bus. All I've ever heard from Thomas or Laimbeer were excuses for acting like jerks
Jordan was so clutch at the end, he single handedly finished the game. Drew a foul to stop the clock then sank both free throws, quick 4 second score to put the Bulls down by 1, forced a takeaway, then let the clock run and sank the final bucket to go up by 1 with 5 seconds left. Simply amazing. He knows how to win.
@Lisa Rose Why are you hating on Stockton for no reason? He wasn't the one guarding MJ for those last two shots, Russell and Malone were. Stockton hit a 3 to go up by 3 with 41 seconds left. He IS clutch.
@Lisa Rose Just stop while you're behind. Jordan missed a wide open 3 at the beginning of the video, and a field goal that he should have made at 4:06. It happens, but that didn't make him any less clutch because he scored when he had to, just like Stockton did with that clutch 3 pointer to take the lead by 3 points with 41 seconds left. Quit hating for no reason.
@Lisa Rose You brought Steph Curry into the discussion of all people, so you don't decide it's not about MJ, who actually happened to be in the same game as Stockton. Take your unnecessary hate elsewhere, because you sound like a fool.
*Everything about this moment is so perfect.* Down by one point. Has the ball. Crosses the opponent. Hits the shot. Forty-Five points. Six championships. Second Three-peat.
Nobody gonna talk about the fact that Jordan had 23 first half points and 45 at the end? It always blew my mind that even numerically his final game as a Bull was so fitting.
@@JakeKoenig Lol that's bullshit. Jordan did not push off, it only looks like that from one angle. If you watch multiple angles there was no push off.
The last 3 minutes of that game shows why Jordan is the greatest ever. They needed every point, he got to the line and made all 4 free throws, got the steal off his missed 3 pointer. And to not clear to get the steal from Malone was just having bball iq.I mean damn he played both sides of the court. BBall IQ, defense, offense and that killer instinct. So he had 8 points and 2 steals in 2.5 minutes
Speaking of basketball iq, look at how he immediately notices the error in the refs offensive foul call against Rodman, who was never given a chance at a legitimate possession by planting both feet on the ground first. Jordan IMMEDIATELY notices that, shows his awareness and iq in the midst of high pressure moments.
True leadership and greatness is when the pressure is on , not his best shooting night but he was smart enough to attack the rim and get to the line keeping his team in the game, then he makes three consecutive plays to win it as Kerr said “your fucking unbelievable”
Yep the likes of Gary Payton, Shawn Kemp, Charles Barkley, John Stockton Jeff Hornaceck, Karl Malone, Reggie Miller among other great players that never won championships because of Jordan
@@Filmbuff1979 You mention Shawn Kemp and Hornacek as “greats” who missed out on rings because of Jordan, but forget one of the most obvious - Patrick Ewing. Ewing and the Knicks could never get past the Bulls with Jordan.
He went Thanos in that last 41 seconds. NO ONE ELSE on the Bulls touched the ball. MJ literally went and snatched a title away from two of the 50 best players who ever lived, on their floor, with a skeleton cast of teammates. It's just unreal how he ended his Chicago run. It's beyond sports...it was theater. The most watched game in the history of the NBA and MJ ended with the greatest flourish of all time.
How is it a skeleton cast of team mates Scottie and Rodman forming the best big 3 ever. Rodman leading the nba in rebounds that season (possibly the greatest rebounder ever) Scottie still a top 5 gaurd in the NBA Toni kukoc, the reigning 6th man of the year Steve Kerr- the most efficient 3 point shooter in history And big game Ron Harper
@@zaindiwan7614tbf, Rodman was unplayable in 98, Scottie had no back in 98, Kerr literally took 10 shots tops throughout the 97-98 season, and "Big Game" Ron Harper had a whooping 8 points in 28 minutes. Kukoc contributed a nice 15 points, which was good in the 90's, but still not big 3 type of a performance. It was MJ's game
@@zaindiwan7614 IN THAT GAME, Pippen was useless. Rodman had been depreciating returns and was relegated to the bench in the Finals. Jesus, some of you are so quick to hear yourselves talk, you don't even stop to fucking READ what others wrote. In THIS GAME, he had a skeleton cast of teammates.
MJ was dominant offensively and defensively in this game 6 to give Chicago Bulls their 2nd 3 peats. The greatness of MJ should never be questioned by anyone regardless of era.
MJ will always be known as the greatest player of all time Edit a year later this comment blew up with arguments 😂 I loved seeing the replies of arguing about who is the goat y'all can argue all you want MJ is my goat and I think he is and may forever be the greatest player of all time.
@ATLANTA FALCONS When enough time passes, those "young fans" will be the only ones left to tell the tales. The rest of us will be dead and gone. Be careful with that "forever" word.
That video where Jordan gets asked "Final seconds, games on the line, who takes the last shot?" Jordans answers with a disguised look on his face that you would even dare have to ask that question because you should of already known and never have asked. He was that offended. He goes. "Me" and walks off. UA-cam it.
@J G your argument makes literally no sense. You say that soccer is the "greatest sport on earth" without presenting a single argument to back up that statement. All you argument proves is that it's the most POPULAR and widely played sport on earth. News flash: most popular doesn't mean greatest. Dwayne Johnson is the most popular actor on the planet. Is he the greatest actor? No not even close. Popular doesn't mean greatest. Michael Jordan is the goat of basketball. Lol this has nothing to do with soccer
I'm a Magic Johnson and Showtime fan but good lord Mr. Jordan is a GOAT, UNICORN of Basketball, MASTER of the Game, and a KILLER to your basketball soul. No one come close to this man.
Seriously bro there’s no question and I met John Stockton in Spokane and he was mean and stand off ish and I see why after seeing this Jordan messed him up same for a lot of players 😂😂😂😂😂

So poetic. The undisputed GOAT. May be another 100 years until there’s another person close to MJ. Plus he played in the toughest era in the NBA. The greatest basketball player of all time.

I remember watching this game. I knew it was NBA history, the last sequence, MJ layup, steal and game winning jumper. The greatest clutch sequence in the history of the NBA finals. Still gives me goose bumps to this day. Always and forever grateful I got to see MJ play…
To do this in his final game as a bull is just incredible. He played every game in his final three championship years, three full 82 game regular seasons along with three title winning playoff runs. He was head and shoulders above everyone in his era. The term greatness is thrown around too freely these days, but he really was the greatest to ever play the game.

the last minute sums up the Greatness of Michael Jordan for me & why I call him the best of all-time. He hit the quick layup, he then gets the most pivotal steal of his career, & hits the shot to go ahead in the NBA championship. It was a perfect ending to a player that captured the heart of the entire world! Man do I Miss him balling!
NBA has never returned to the 90's level. With w0ke virtue signalling and all that it's kind of over for the NBA. Not to mention that there aren't players worth watching. Lebron is good but he's not clutch and he's not really fun to watch. The whole game is ruined too now with it just being a 3 point shoot out.
players like jordan just once in a lifetime , Mike was probably the greatest athlete in the history of the sports. NOBODY gonna touch his legacy , and probably we will never see again a human being like him.
Got to see this live on TV as a kid. As I got older I realized how special this was. 2 3peats and has never lost more than 2 games in a row as a Bull in the 90s. That's crazy! GOAT.
@@goldenokoko3211 fck no. Lebron would've shrunk after that Stockton 3. He shoots 0/6 in the finals when his team is trailing by 1-3 under 24 secs. How you the goat but can't hit a shot to tie or take the lead when your team most needs you. Mj hit a fg to cut it to 1 and then gets the steal on Malone and took it down the court to hit the last shot with all the pressure. That's a real goat
@@margaridacosta270 Lots of reasons but if I had to pick one and to make it short so you don’t have to read so much, he plays the game of basketball the way it was meant to be played and he does it at a high level. He’s always going to make the right play. He has the perfect build for being a basketball player at 6’9 about 260. He takes cares of his body. He can play 1-5 and guard 1-5. Again, he does everything at a high level. This includes scoring, rebounding, passing, defense, playmaking, sportsmanship, anything you can think of. The guy has the highest basketball IQ we’ve probably ever seen. Not to mention he’s been doing this for 20+ years now and he’s still performing at a high level. I could go on and on. MJ is my favorite player due to his mentality. I like the badass/asshole/arrogant mentality. The guy will take the last shot even if he’s being doubled or tripled. LeBron, however, will make the right play and pass. While I prefer MJ, I cant be like others and bash LeBron for playing the game the right way. People bashed him for passing and not taking the last shot in game 1 of the 2018 finals. That’s unfair to me. First, the guy had 51, 8, and 8 and second, ITS THE RIGHT PLAY. I hate the amount of crap LeBron gets. But anyway, I’m still an MJ guy.
@@Gk54493 in terms of mentality no one beats jordan in any sport,last shot for the title who will you want jordan or lebron? lebron top 5,i put jordan, magic,kareem and russell ahead of him. Lebron needs two more titles to pass magic and kareem,at least one. Btw Duncan can be in the debate for the top 5..
Phil Jackson talked about this in an interview before. He mentioned how Michael’s jumpshot hadn’t been falling this game, he was letting his hand go early and not following through. So when Bulls called the timeout at 41 seconds, he told michael as soon as you get the ball attack the basket immediately, don’t settle for a shot, then after you score (which I love how Phil was so confident predicting MJ would score), he told Michael that on defense Jazz are gonna run the cross baseline pick to Malone. Phil told MJ to come around and try to see if he can get a strip on the ball. Same play Michael goes down and scores, on a jumpshot I might add, which he makes sure to follow through lol. Crazy how in unison Phil and Mike were, Phil with the awareness and advice for MJ, and of course Michael went out and executed to perfection. Shows how much they both trusted each other.
Had Malone had that [IQ of a genius], he would/should have known that he'd be doubled, and would have passed to ball to the guy that MJ was supposed to be on...well, as much as I like KM, he is no MJ, that's for sure. ;-)
I am you look there's a interview Phil Jackson did where he told Jordan in the time out they was gonna go to Malone down low an Jordan was gonna strip the ball. He told Jordan to picture it then he went an did it that's crazy
11:59 Completely forgotten but Ron Harper does a great job getting in Stockton's face and forcing him to miss the potential game-winner. He even gets a piece of the ball according to Costas
‘That may have been the last shot, Michael Jordan will ever take in the NBA’ Man I can’t even describe the feeling of that commentary. The GOAT of all time and after time.
@@bonginkosinkosi8546 i mean it kinda was he wasnt as lush on the wizards, and in this game he was tired coming short on his shots so in a sense this was the last Michael Jordan prime GOAT bulls 90s shot, a magical commentary indeed
Remember going coming across this video years ago when I was broke and leaving my ex wife's place after she kicked me out. Don't ever give up in life...no matter how bad you're hurt by the people you love, keep pushing.
And even as you watch this video, the rich get even richer, 🤔 I don't know who really needs to hear this, you need to stop saving money. Invest some of your money, if you really want financial freedom. I'm happy your story changed for good
The best thing about Jordan is that he NEVER gives up. Most people, there at the end when Malone had the ball would have just ran down the court to get ready to defend. But not Jordan. He is simply on another level, beyond even the best then and now. And on the winning shot, he really didn't push Russell. His hand was on Russell, yes, but when Jordan stopped on a dime to make the shot, Russell got his ankles broken basically, and caused the illusion that he was pushed. I watched it live, and it seems just like yesterday. Since Jordan left, I really haven't watched much basketball, though I did watch Lebron through the playoffs this year. He is very good, in the ball park of Jordan talent-wise, but here's the difference: Lebron makes mistakes that Jordan never did, such as errant passes, passing when he should continue a drive to the hoop, complaining to a ref while the other team is taking the ball back across the court.
Stockton was a beast! When he hit that three point in the end, I thought it was over...... but MJ doing GOAT things. I still have the DVD of all the Bulls dynasty.
I mean he is the goat but Lebron did carry his team on 2018 but he didn’t beat the warriors but it was as impresive as Jordan carrying this old bulls team

KoachKrab127 Erm, the offense of the Bulls were never ever 'very limited' when that man is on the court. And what do you mean they should have tried to get Kukoc a bit more involved? The Bulls were trailing for almost the entire duration of the 2nd half of this game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Bulls used the triangle offense to make the most out of everyone, regardless of their talent levels, to get everyone on the same page, to pull everyone along for most of the season, it was a huge factor for most of the regular season games, much less for the play-off games obviously but when it comes down to the most important possessions of a game to get back in the game and take the lead to win, the Bulls depended on MJ, more so for play-off games and even much more in Finals games.
Shay Butta look at Jordan, so confident, his skill is so high that as long as he gets the ball in his hands their safe. Crucial steals. Jordan is too good.
in the 90's watching Michael and the Bulls on the NBA on NBC was unmissable. We were spoiled. Watching this live, I lost my mind on the steal off Malone. So insane. There will never be another MJ.
NBA basketball NBC on Sundays was the shit! Jordan was must see tv.. I remember Chicago at my Team Boston.. Jordan just lighting them up and 1 shot by MJ just sticks in my head.. Ball is going out of bounds by the Celtics bench, shot clock at 2 Jordan saving the ball in mid air falling into the Celtics bench nails a 3 pointer!!! God was he perfect!! I feel blessed to have watched him..And we had BIRD and he was great too obviously..

Michael Jordan and the rest of the Bulls of that era made the Chicago area so proud, talk about a golden age for sports. :)
There will truly never be another player like mike
Where have u been ohm?
Ahh ohm also got this in his recommended.😂
Jordan pushed off
Definitely, for Chicago sports fans, the 1990s was a decade for the ages!
Its nuts. In the last 1:11 of live play no Bull touches the ball but Michael. He got a rebound, 2 free throws, a quick score, a steal and a game winner. The amount of pressure he played with and accepted is insane. His teammates allowed this because they knew he would bring them home in the clutch. How could his GOAT status ever be questioned?
that is alittle freaky when you understand numerical meaning lol good catch dawg
Paxson hit a three than won one title against the suns. Kerr hit a jumper that won game six in 97.
@@acornsucks2111 its definitely not the same. Hitting a wide open shot, compared to doing every single thing neccessary for your team to win. If you want to expand it, you can say in the last 3 minutes not a single Bull scored. But Jordan was tired, evidence of this is in his short front rimming jumpshots. Yet somehow, he managed to perfectly sink an 18 foot jumper with just seconds to go. Everyone knew where the ball was going, yet he still managed to make it happen.

You should patent this quote, put it on a T-Shirt & sell it!!! Great description of Michael Jeffery Jordan
Jordan was so clutch at the end, he single handedly finished the game. Drew a foul to stop the clock then sank both free throws, quick 4 second score to put the Bulls down by 1, forced a takeaway, then let the clock run and sank the final bucket to go up by 1 with 5 seconds left. Simply amazing. He knows how to win.
BEERFEST07 The celebration gives me goosebumps
@Lisa Rose Why are you hating on Stockton for no reason? He wasn't the one guarding MJ for those last two shots, Russell and Malone were. Stockton hit a 3 to go up by 3 with 41 seconds left. He IS clutch.
@Lisa Rose Just stop while you're behind. Jordan missed a wide open 3 at the beginning of the video, and a field goal that he should have made at 4:06. It happens, but that didn't make him any less clutch because he scored when he had to, just like Stockton did with that clutch 3 pointer to take the lead by 3 points with 41 seconds left. Quit hating for no reason.
@Lisa Rose You brought Steph Curry into the discussion of all people, so you don't decide it's not about MJ, who actually happened to be in the same game as Stockton. Take your unnecessary hate elsewhere, because you sound like a fool.

The last 3 minutes of that game shows why Jordan is the greatest ever. They needed every point, he got to the line and made all 4 free throws, got the steal off his missed 3 pointer. And to not clear to get the steal from Malone was just having bball iq.I mean damn he played both sides of the court. BBall IQ, defense, offense and that killer instinct. So he had 8 points and 2 steals in 2.5 minutes
Jawayne 224 yes
@PokemonAddict He would have also given up after that John stockton 3pt at 7:58
Simply Amazing!
Speaking of basketball iq, look at how he immediately notices the error in the refs offensive foul call against Rodman, who was never given a chance at a legitimate possession by planting both feet on the ground first. Jordan IMMEDIATELY notices that, shows his awareness and iq in the midst of high pressure moments.
True leadership and greatness is when the pressure is on , not his best shooting night but he was smart enough to attack the rim and get to the line keeping his team in the game, then he makes three consecutive plays to win it as Kerr said “your fucking unbelievable”
Hes the reason why many greats never got a ring
He put legends out to pasture

The NBA soooooooooooooo boring now. I don't even watch the NBA anymore.
players like jordan just once in a lifetime , Mike was probably the greatest athlete in the history of the sports. NOBODY gonna touch his legacy , and probably we will never see again a human being like him.
agreed, just like mohammmed ali
Mmm
Kobe
Mohammad ali, MJ, Leo Messi....same kimd of people and the only few that comes to my mind
Watching too much ESPN and not enough thinking for yourself.
Got to see this live on TV as a kid. As I got older I realized how special this was. 2 3peats and has never lost more than 2 games in a row as a Bull in the 90s. That's crazy! GOAT.
REAL GOAT!!!

@@goldenokoko3211 nope
@@goldenokoko3211 fck no. Lebron would've shrunk after that Stockton 3. He shoots 0/6 in the finals when his team is trailing by 1-3 under 24 secs. How you the goat but can't hit a shot to tie or take the lead when your team most needs you. Mj hit a fg to cut it to 1 and then gets the steal on Malone and took it down the court to hit the last shot with all the pressure. That's a real goat
real goat is Curry😅

@@Gk54493lol ur high as fuck
@@Gk54493 reasons why?
@@margaridacosta270 Lots of reasons but if I had to pick one and to make it short so you don’t have to read so much, he plays the game of basketball the way it was meant to be played and he does it at a high level. He’s always going to make the right play. He has the perfect build for being a basketball player at 6’9 about 260. He takes cares of his body. He can play 1-5 and guard 1-5. Again, he does everything at a high level. This includes scoring, rebounding, passing, defense, playmaking, sportsmanship, anything you can think of. The guy has the highest basketball IQ we’ve probably ever seen. Not to mention he’s been doing this for 20+ years now and he’s still performing at a high level. I could go on and on. MJ is my favorite player due to his mentality. I like the badass/asshole/arrogant mentality. The guy will take the last shot even if he’s being doubled or tripled. LeBron, however, will make the right play and pass. While I prefer MJ, I cant be like others and bash LeBron for playing the game the right way. People bashed him for passing and not taking the last shot in game 1 of the 2018 finals. That’s unfair to me. First, the guy had 51, 8, and 8 and second, ITS THE RIGHT PLAY. I hate the amount of crap LeBron gets. But anyway, I’m still an MJ guy.
@@Gk54493 in terms of mentality no one beats jordan in any sport,last shot for the title who will you want jordan or lebron?
lebron top 5,i put jordan, magic,kareem and russell ahead of him.
Lebron needs two more titles to pass magic and kareem,at least one.
Btw Duncan can be in the debate for the top 5..
One layup, one steal, one shot
From the edge of loss to the sixth champion
This is why we called GOAT
還有罰球
Yes exactly. I wonder what MJ's FT avg is in the last 2 mins of games? Has to be high
@@CanuckQuest please 번역 to me
He dictates the pace of the game at the end with pure heart .
Phil Jackson talked about this in an interview before. He mentioned how Michael’s jumpshot hadn’t been falling this game, he was letting his hand go early and not following through. So when Bulls called the timeout at 41 seconds, he told michael as soon as you get the ball attack the basket immediately, don’t settle for a shot, then after you score (which I love how Phil was so confident predicting MJ would score), he told Michael that on defense Jazz are gonna run the cross baseline pick to Malone. Phil told MJ to come around and try to see if he can get a strip on the ball. Same play Michael goes down and scores, on a jumpshot I might add, which he makes sure to follow through lol. Crazy how in unison Phil and Mike were, Phil with the awareness and advice for MJ, and of course Michael went out and executed to perfection. Shows how much they both trusted each other.
two brilliant minds synch. its really amazing and inspiring
A Legend
MJ was a leader from the first second as a bulls player. Take a look at his first matches, he was not playing like a rookie.
What absolute amazing coaching.... hard to forget. he helped kobe and shaq as well get over the hump.
That swat on Malone to steal the ball to me is equally impressive as his final shot. The timing and awareness on that defensive play was impeccable.
CORRECT!! I agree wholeheartedly!
Yeah, that's 200 IQ play
Had Malone had that [IQ of a genius], he would/should have known that he'd be doubled, and would have passed to ball to the guy that MJ was supposed to be on...well, as much as I like KM, he is no MJ, that's for sure. ;-)
I second that and also that quick layup
I am you look there's a interview Phil Jackson did where he told Jordan in the time out they was gonna go to Malone down low an Jordan was gonna strip the ball. He told Jordan to picture it then he went an did it that's crazy
11:59 Completely forgotten but Ron Harper does a great job getting in Stockton's face and forcing him to miss the potential game-winner. He even gets a piece of the ball according to Costas
‘That may have been the last shot, Michael Jordan will ever take in the NBA’ Man I can’t even describe the feeling of that commentary. The GOAT of all time and after time.
Only, it was not
@@bonginkosinkosi8546 it was the last shot he took for the Chicago Bulls.
@J G nobody asked lol
@@bonginkosinkosi8546 i mean it kinda was he wasnt as lush on the wizards, and in this game he was tired coming short on his shots so in a sense this was the last Michael Jordan prime GOAT bulls 90s shot, a magical commentary indeed
@J G I hope so, if it means the demise of the NFL with it's concussion culture.
Remember going coming across this video years ago when I was broke and leaving my ex wife's place after she kicked me out. Don't ever give up in life...no matter how bad you're hurt by the people you love, keep pushing.

When basketball was EPIC‼️
The best thing about Jordan is that he NEVER gives up. Most people, there at the end when Malone had the ball would have just ran down the court to get ready to defend. But not Jordan. He is simply on another level, beyond even the best then and now.
And on the winning shot, he really didn't push Russell. His hand was on Russell, yes, but when Jordan stopped on a dime to make the shot, Russell got his ankles broken basically, and caused the illusion that he was pushed. I watched it live, and it seems just like yesterday. Since Jordan left, I really haven't watched much basketball, though I did watch Lebron through the playoffs this year. He is very good, in the ball park of Jordan talent-wise, but here's the difference: Lebron makes mistakes that Jordan never did, such as errant passes, passing when he should continue a drive to the hoop, complaining to a ref while the other team is taking the ball back across the court.
Stockton was a beast! When he hit that three point in the end, I thought it was over...... but MJ doing GOAT things. I still have the DVD of all the Bulls dynasty.
@M nobody cares
@M what are you doing here? 😂
@M Basketball has 2.4 billion fans to correct you
@M yeah but soccer is corny as hell
Stockton was so underrated, but the greats of his era know the truth. I never cared for the Jazz one bit, but I still have respect for them~
9:10 is the most epic moment of NBA history.
for me it starts from that epic steal.
Chicago with the league
It's so iconic and epic but there is one more shot with also exactly 5.2 seconds left which is more epic.
The push off
Ray Allen
Aged like a good wine. Still watching this in 2025
This dude was built different. How many players give you chills almost 30 years later.
Jordan retires after playing against Jazz.
Kobe does the same thing.
Coincidence?
so is that whats going to happen to KD, Lebron, curry, klay they all play the jazz as their final game lol
Out of all the name's you said LeBron is the closest one to be up there with Kobe and Jordan to even mention retiring against the Jazz
LeBron will be next to play his last game against the jazz
A Raichu NO!!!! MJ played in a championship game KOBE played no bearing game against Utah
I THINK NOT
The real legend. Putting the team on his back, defensively and offensively. A masterpiece!
100%, no talk, just action that no one can duplicate
I mean he is the goat but Lebron did carry his team on 2018 but he didn’t beat the warriors but it was as impresive as Jordan carrying this old bulls team
@@GomugomunoojetgatlingLbj got a lot of help offensively

Dude, everyone has a special era. Adults in 2040 that were born in 2010, are going to say that the 2020’s were the bomb and others will say that 2030’s were better. Remember that we won’t be here any longer and they will stay. A lot of people will forget about our Era’s. It will be just history like any other eras.
The last 2 offensive & last defensive sequence for Jordan was pure genius
Somebody unlike it to keep it 23
From Russia with love. I watched this game in '98 when I was still a kid
That is awesome. Were you able to watch it in a legal way? I was watching this during my student exchange when i was a student in America from Germany.
@@BionicOne1 I watched it in Russia too. I was 13 years old )
Yes, this final was shown on the russian TV-channel. But I think it was not live. As I remember it was the middle of the day, not the early morning.
@@АлексейДанилов-ы8н Super cool that sports do unite us across the world
I too, watched live, on ICTV, Ukraine.
I don't even like basketball and yet I find myself watching this video every now and again lol. Greatness is something that we can all appreciate, regardless of our own tastes.
MJ literately got the ball every single time to lead them to victory. awesome
KoachKrab127 Erm, the offense of the Bulls were never ever 'very limited' when that man is on the court. And what do you mean they should have tried to get Kukoc a bit more involved? The Bulls were trailing for almost the entire duration of the 2nd half of this game 6 of the NBA Finals.
The Bulls used the triangle offense to make the most out of everyone, regardless of their talent levels, to get everyone on the same page, to pull everyone along for most of the season, it was a huge factor for most of the regular season games, much less for the play-off games obviously but when it comes down to the most important possessions of a game to get back in the game and take the lead to win, the Bulls depended on MJ, more so for play-off games and even much more in Finals games.
That's why they say Kobe is the closest thing to Jordan.
MJ lol I thought Michael Jackson
Shay Butta look at Jordan, so confident, his skill is so high that as long as he gets the ball in his hands their safe. Crucial steals. Jordan is too good.
Shay Butta exactly. These kids will never learn
Jordan's free throws were so perfect sometimes, the net would hardly move. The GOAT!

bro that’s like every other good free throw player, even i could do that since i practice them a lot, u could too 😂
@@nocapp_ You might want to give Lebron some pointers then cause his FT% is garbage in the playoffs compared to those "hood" free throws.
While lebron ? Hahahah
in the 90's watching Michael and the Bulls on the NBA on NBC was unmissable. We were spoiled.
Watching this live, I lost my mind on the steal off Malone. So insane.
There will never be another MJ.
The NBA on NBC was top tier. Especially the theme song in the beginning
I wasn't old enough but damn no doubt it was a privilege.
La mello ball.
I’m from Houston so the 90’s was just peak basketball for me. It was either getting to watch Jordan and the Bulls, or the best Rockets ever.
NBA basketball NBC on Sundays was the shit! Jordan was must see tv.. I remember Chicago at my Team Boston.. Jordan just lighting them up and 1 shot by MJ just sticks in my head.. Ball is going out of bounds by the Celtics bench, shot clock at 2 Jordan saving the ball in mid air falling into the Celtics bench nails a 3 pointer!!! God was he perfect!! I feel blessed to have watched him..And we had BIRD and he was great too obviously..
I still shake my head in amazement at those last sequences of play by Michael Jordan.He lets everybody play the game, but when it's time to close it out,he takes over and wins it for them everytime.What a player What a legend.🏆🏆🏆•🏆🏆🏆🏀
One of the greatest shots ever by the GOAT Michael Jordan. I get chills every time I see this game...every time.
