I love how MJ busted up laughing near the end of the game, when the Ray Charles song played, as that one dude fouled out, 😂! He did that during game 1 of this series as well!

[@oluwaseyi07]

was he laughing about the song or at douglas for stripping him?

[@truthhurts3524]

Jordan laughing at Douglas at the end there, Douglas was complaining he was fouled and he had proof. Claiming his hand was red from the foul. 😂

Jordan's shots were flatter in that season compared to the previous 2, and his misses tended to be short. By the end of the playoffs he toke more shots closer to the basket or around the basket. I think Pippen's absence in the first two months of the season put so much pressure on Jordan and fatigue caught up with him earlier than before.

[@oluwaseyi07]

great observation. how’d you know?

[@davidschmidt227]

He was also dealing with an injury in his index finger for most of the season, I remember Isiah mentioning it mid-season and he also mentions it at 6:10

DR WENNINGTON AND STEVEN QUESTION KERR HELPING THERE BOYS OUT Y MIKE ON THE BENCH

[@oliverqueen444]

MJ and Phil Jackson laughing at Douglas and Calipari complaining about non-calls favoring the Bulls. Douglas actually holds the all-time losing record as a player vs MJ, he is like 0-30 versus Jordan (with Douglas being on different teams throughout his career). In classic Mike-way he took the barking from this game personally and scored like 39 on like 4 missed shots in the next game and blew them out in Jersey, finishing the series.

Don't remember but, where is Luc Longley in this series?

[@jxn23]

He was injured at the end of the regular season and first round of the playoffs but came back for the Charlotte series

🎵🎵Another one bites the dust 🎵🎵 Another one bites the dust 🎵🎵 Another one bites the dust 🎵🎵 Another one bites the dust 🎵🎵 These other teams in the 1998 NBA playoffs were sleeping on Chicago for reason this season - how in the hell you going sleep on a team that has just won 5 out of the last 7 championships 🤷🏾‍♂️ after Jordan dunked on Kendall Gill in overtime of game 1 (it was on, and the bulls were ready to roll) after the slow start in game 1

[@hlf_coder6272]

1:09:00 How do you look away from Michael Jordan? Even JV high school players know not to lose sight of the guy they’re defending, let alone Michael freaking Jordan in a playoff game. Obviously he’s going to immediately back door you every time

[@candymoore153]

Kerry looks like Kobe

[@gabrielhutchinson4708]

these east teams were so weak during the 90s. this bulls team wasnt the greatest of all time. sorry.

[@sacrifyse]

That's why that was the last dance...

[@Wintersoldier2085]

still stronger than the Eastern conference in the 2010s called the leastern conference.

(you)

[@denigster]

you re right the team 2 years ealier is the best team of all time without a question

[@davidschmidt227]

This is just a 1st round series and all 3 games were still difficult. The Pacers team they faced in the ECF was arguably the best in franchise history.
