Man that retro sportscenter really takes you back. Back when u didnt know what highlight was next so you had to sit through the whole thing so you didnt miss your team or sport haha
..and this is why kids, Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time. You can pack your stats, that's fine and dandy...but there is something called "winning the game"...
People don't understand. To score anything above 15 points per game is a great average for any star player, this man scores 38 and grabs 7 rebounds when he's sick as a dog. This is what legends are made of.
Danny Chill I remember this game. SP was literally helping MJ Walk off the Court. MJ was gassed before the game started, but somehow scored 38 in game 5 of NBA final tied 2-2. 🐐
Whenever I had a flu or had a symptoms that made me sweat bullets, I could never get out of the house so easily and do my daily chores or work, and encouraged to stay at home. For MJ to get out there, and play even at his best, and better than any other player is beyond comprehension. This game really solidifies the reason for MJ to be the greatest of all time, regardless of a sport. Even the flu couldn't stop MJ.
where we you during this game? can't believe it's 20years me watching TV here Philippines, crying that he is sick and may lose but crying again when they won because he just refuses to lose. respect to my hero , legend! I miss mj so bad
I watch this game live with my cousin. After the game was over my cousin says that Michael Jordan is for real.. I was so amazed n what he says were true cause I cant do nothing when I have the flu n I've seen it confne many people to their bed in including myself.
Shut up lebronsexual. John Stockton has the most steals in nba history. There are more white players in todays league. Anf LeBron choked against a team lead by a white dude. So shut up.
Thing that stands out to me here is that they seem to use the actual background noise from the stadium/fans reactions. Muting out the broadcast commentary. I don't feel like you hear that very often. Usually I think highlights mute all the sound or lower it with some of the broadcast audible or just have their own background music edited over it.
I would NEVER think that a guy like MJ would ever party before a game. Dennis Rodman - aight 100% but MJ? He was strict as heck when it came to training and Basketball. Worst thing he did was playing Golf the whole day but NEVER would he party before a game. Especially a FINAL game.
Michael is amazing, but it's funny to see how the three pointer was used back then, more often a shot at the end of the shot clock! Those days are over!
Aw man RIP Stuart Scott ❤️🙌
Davezilla he's been my twitter overhead picture since 1/4/15.
"Must be Jelly cuz Jam don't shake like that." Classic Stuart Scott.
Looking like Carlton
Who
Who
RIP Stuart Scott! The Goat anchor covering the Goat basketball player!
Howard Cosell, John Madden, Johnny "Red" Kerr, Chick Hearns, Chris Berman, uh... Slow down homie.
i got the chills when i saw him :(
Iambigjones absolute GOAT!!! I miss him
@Joe Sacco Stephen A is an idiot... can't stand that guy. Or that other dude who stares at the camera as if he's trying to melt it....
wow really? RIP very good at what he did
2:20 "Jordan on the bench looking absolutely ill...and I'm not talking ill as in good"...classic Stuart Scott..we miss you...RIP Stuart
jake sheilds oh i didnt know you were there with michael the night before. Thanks for telling me he partied, didnt know u had connections like that.
kai zen that was an amazing line
@@juanlewis4335 calm down with the disrespectful sarcasm
He was dead drunk!
@Greg A sure simp
'Micheal Micheal Michael, why cant you see, Sometimes you 3's just hypnotize me' - Dang that might just be the greatest sports commentary ever...
Must be jelly cuz jam DON'T SHAKE LIKE THAT!
Man that retro sportscenter really takes you back. Back when u didnt know what highlight was next so you had to sit through the whole thing so you didnt miss your team or sport haha
Man I miss Stuart Scott. ESPN ain't been the same since. Rest in power!
This is why I love the 90's
If Sportscenter were still like this, I'd watch it 24/7
What's wrong with it now?
Players today cant walk off the court with a cramp. Mans was playing half dead
We have to come up with a better word than G.O.A.T for MJ. The man scored 38 with the flu.
Roger Thomas hangover*
Cramp? I see what you did there 😂.
oanimal007 have u ever had a cramp before. Not defending LeBron but... trust me you’d want the flu until your cramp is done. U really can’t walk
He's the GOAT
Rip Stuart Scott🐐☝🏽🙌🏽♥️
38 points and was sick.. insane
42% of the Bulls entire points!
38 points and drunk, Rodman must’ve hung out with him the night before
Jonathan Schroeder if he was drunk that’s just as impressive!!
Jonathan Schroeder I don’t know where you got “drunk” from but MJ had stomach virus
@Greg A from where. There was no room service where the bulls were staying in Utah
Michael Michael Michael can't you see sometimes your threes just hypnotize me!
The best in the game RIP
back in the day when both teams in nba finals weren't shooting 3s every posession
Who gives a fuck though?
tony tonyt that has nothing to do with my comment, learn to read and come back
kyle mcentee people who actually enjoys watching basketball, for sake its like watching a circus in nba finals these days
+Beats S Bruh if you don't lime it, "Don't Watch" Simple
* like it
whether it was the flu, a hangover, or food poisoning it’s still impressive
FACTS!
100% facts
Well I doubt it was a hangover cause I’ve had hangovers many times in my life and never once did I have a fever.
I saw that game as a kid. It immortalized his legendary status for me beyond legend. It was just unbelievable game.
..and this is why kids, Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time. You can pack your stats, that's fine and dandy...but there is something called "winning the game"...
Bill Russell got 11 of those things...
@@demarpoindexter frfr. If it was based off rings Russell would be the GOAT but it's not so we going off stats.
Kenneth Rodriguez exactly so bron the 🐐
Yeah he ain’t have no flu
This is one of the best comments I’ve ever read because it’s so true
Michael Michael Michael can't you see sometimes your threes just hypnotize me
my left ear loved this.
Hands down one of the greatest performances I’ve ever seen! Long live MJ #23
The greatest there was, the greatest there is, and the greatest there will ever be.
saud alharbi Brett hart?
The excellence of execution
This what was said about magic and then MJ23 happened

Man I love Stuart Scott man! Class act, more entertaining than anything on ESPN today.

Mj dropped 38 with covid19 and NBA now is suspending season games 🐐
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😱😱
That old 80's porn intro..
Omdsss😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂
I had the flu I couldn’t get out my bed for 3 days this guy dominated a nba finals game playing against 2 hall of farmers smh incredible
Yeah he had the flu alright
James Terrell hater
Doug Fresh44 yeah the flu is no joke I had it in High School felt like the whole world was on resting on top of my head lol
The fact that he was not having a flu it was food poisoning
he had food poisoning
MJ hugging Pippen at the end of the game..
Danny Chill I remember this game. SP was literally helping MJ Walk off the Court. MJ was gassed before the game started, but somehow scored 38 in game 5 of NBA final tied 2-2. 🐐
Man there'll never be another MJ or Stu Scott. RIP to a great one.
r.I.p stu Scott
I actually remember watching this game live. Great stuff! I'd love to see more throwback videos like this :)
I love how Scott brought that hip hop flare rest easy.

#RapistKobe arrested on July 4 2003 #Wikipedia yes we are and so? you think laughing at us makes you better? you are rude.
Back when sportcenter was your main source for a national highlight the internet was too slow.
Michael Michael Michael can’t you see sometimes your 3’s hypnotize me…classic 🎤 drop…Stuart Scott legend…
This was my favorite NBA game Ive watched ever. Unreal.
Micheal micheal can’t you see your threes just hypnotize me😂😂😂😂
This man was throwing up before the game and still said he wanna play.
This is amazing! Back when there weren’t crazy graphics flying around or useless stats popping up...just pure highlights and Stuart Scott.
Stewart Scott RIP bro! You'd changed the way how sports broadcasting use to be done to how it is today!
Legendary game i will never forget this game
"Even with the flu Michael proved to be better than anybody else..."
Times were simpler
90’s espn was beautiful
Flu-like symptoms: any player would just skip the game yet he finished it with 37 points and a win! One of the reasons why MJ is considered the GOAT.
woow.... I mean.... WOW... A lot of talent on both those squads... Truly legendary stuff from MJ
Thats gotta be one of the most iconic and heroic moments in sports history Jordan GOAT
Stuart Scott was wayyy ahead of his time. RIP Stuart, you are greatly missed.
Wow Rich and Stuart two legends
I remember this. it was amazing to see I was 5 or 6 when game happen it's amazing so many years later it's so remember this game
This game illustrated the greatness of Jordan but also illustrated the greatness of Pippen, at times literally carrying Jordan through the game.
Man RIP Stuart Scott! Nobody did a sports center highlight like him especially Bball. #BooYa #TheBest
Never allowed finals series to 7 games
That sax in the beginning☺
man I miss Stu. What a great team Rich and Stu were.
Nice job on the highlights by Stu Scott. When you know a game like that is going into the time capsule you better be on your game too and he was.
Wow stuart Scott and rich esien I watch them as a kid they were the perfect team.# throwbackESPN
" MUST BE JELLY 'COZ JAM DON'T SHAKE LIKE THAT! " - Stuart Scott ...Best ever.
And to think that this was our best tv quality back then before 1080p HD and now 4K
That Hypnotize reference 😮
2:52 that was smooth 😎
And Big died three months earlier R.I.P.
Skip Bayless:"LeBron needs a Coronavirus game to one up Jordan, there I said it!"
God damnit, I miss Stuart Scott's iconic catch phrases! RIP
“Yo b that’s mike” classic, rip Scott
Jordan’s basically went ultra instinct in this game. It was pure repudiation and conditioning that allowed him to play this well.
I watch this game live with my cousin. After the game was over my cousin says that Michael Jordan is for real.. I was so amazed n what he says were true cause I cant do nothing when I have the flu n I've seen it confne many people to their bed in including myself.
country shuts down for the flu now, jordan drops 38 in the finals
The game that set MJ apart from the rest of the legends 💪🏿 🐐 🏀 🏆
I love these old Sports Center vids
John Stockton looking like the neighbor next door going to his office job 🤷♂️
Shut up lebronsexual. John Stockton has the most steals in nba history. There are more white players in todays league. Anf LeBron choked against a team lead by a white dude. So shut up.
Stuart scott you're the true GOAT RIP
Logan Paul: can’t fight properly because of sneeze.
Michael Jordan:
Good ol days damn I miss those days
0:31 Didn’t know Russell talk back at MJ.
Don’t poke the bear! 😆

I don't feel like you hear that very often. Usually I think highlights mute all the sound or lower it with some of the broadcast audible or just have their own background music edited over it.
If Jordan had caught Covid, he would have scored 40 points just to prove that Covid can't beat him.
That was sick
When I have the flu I can barely get out of bed and this man scored 38 points in a nba game
RIP Stuart Scott. We miss you.
Thank you for posting this
I like how people say “it was a hangover, not the flu” like that makes it any less impressive 😂
😂😂like either way his ahhs could of passed out
It most def wasn’t a hangover cause last time I checked you don’t get a fever from a hangover. I know for a fact cause I’ve had plenty of them.
I would NEVER think that a guy like MJ would ever party before a game. Dennis Rodman - aight 100% but MJ? He was strict as heck when it came to training and Basketball. Worst thing he did was playing Golf the whole day but NEVER would he party before a game. Especially a FINAL game.
Stuart Scott is a legend ❤️
The heart of a Champion 🤘
GOAT....i think i've covered it all right there.
2:52 😂😂🤣🤣 truly bars
Van Gundy called him a con and he lit them up for 55 not 51.. RIP man
“Michael Michael Michael, can’t you see? Sometimes your 3’s just hypnotize me”
who's here finding out its actual food poisoning?
Man I miss Stuart Scott
The best basketball player I have ever seen is no doubt MJ. The second best? MJ with a flu.
Hey Jerry Krause, this is the man you didn’t want to pay $1M a year. MJ FOREVER
This is why MJ is the GOAT!
Seeing Pipen help Mike off the floor always touches me
Back when sportscenter was watchable... And aestheticslly pleasing looking
Used to love having espn on in the background in the morning but definitely doesn’t have the same feel
I still wear my flu game XIIs when I’m sick but have to tough it out. Gotta be like Mike even in middle age. 😂
😂😂😂
Michael is amazing, but it's funny to see how the three pointer was used back then, more often a shot at the end of the shot clock! Those days are over!
Marvelous video.
Look at MJ so inspirational man
Jordan hits three pointer. Flight: Jordan has been watching Curry
He’s so tuffff man 🐐🐐🐐
This guy is the real GOATmentator
