Cigarette Sponsors!!! influencing people to smoke and get lung lung cancer. Nothing good about that. Players adapt to the era they play in. The current crop would have been just fine in the 90’s. The irony is the league got “soft” to protect MJ. If you blew on the man it was a foul. Why can’t we just enjoy the game and not compare all the time.

I believe if the Knicks had home court advantage in this series/ game 7 at MSG THE KNICKS WOULD HAVE WON! They were the ONLY team who had a legitimate shot of beating Jordan's Bulls in this 3 peat era!😳😳😳.

[@your_royal_highness]

I was at that game. Turning point was the incredible MJ sequence where he scored, stole the inbound, got stripped, chased down X and knocked the ball away. The energy in the building went through the roof. My nail biting subsided a lot.

[@jamesgoines7663]

7:52 Relentless! Michael doesn't take a shot and relaxed. He chases down the ball even after he lost it. Let's teach this to the next generation - Be committed. Give your all at all times.

That whole attack and defence from MJ (7:50) is something remarkable...No contest on the GOAT.

[@fundyspokerblog]

No he didn't. If you're talking about that baseline extremely overrated dunk in '93, he didn't dunk on Jordan. Watch the baseline camera angle. He maybe gets Grant but Jordan wasn't the one he dunked on

[@kevinames6215]

What does Starks dunking on Jordan have to do with the play noted by beatlecost?

[@andremarceau2736]

Jordan wasn't defending Starks. And Jordan jumped up with others to try to defend the dunk. I would say that Starks had a nice dunk on the Bulls, but definitely wasn't a personalized dunk on Jordan. And it certainly wasn't a player to player dunk in the face on Jordan. Not sure why you would allude to this being a personal dunk on Jordan.

[@beatlecost]

It seems that the only reason we'll remember John Starks is that alleged dunk on Jordan (I think Horace Grant was the one that got dunked)...That's why MJ is the best.

[@supedaddy699]

beatlecost Starks was also a ruff defender also. MJ being so great always got the better of him..but Starks definitely had ❤.

[@IgnorancEnArrogance]

Players are too highly paid. You have Duncan Robinson making more on his last deal than most of these guys made for their entire careers. Do you think they actually give a fuck if they win or lose? Does LeBron even look like he cares if he wins when he is taking at least a dozen defensive plays off in an elimination game? Players really only care about their stat sheet, and the way the game is handled facilitates stat padding to keep those players happy.

[@rvpals]

I like what McDaniel did here. He knows he's just a role player and MJ and Pippen are superstars, but come playoff time you compete and never back down even against a Jordan or Pippen. Something you will rarely see on today's NBA.

[@toddsands6000]

X-Man was a bad man during his time with the SuperSonics. Playing for the Knicks rejuvenated his career. Starks and X-Man were consistent key players on the Knicks other than Ewing that was giving the Bulls problems. When the X-Man wasn't signed, it took a bit of air out of the Knicks when they played the Bulls the following year. The X-Man was a free agent and there must have been complications on signing him at that time.
