Throwback NBA Finals 1991. Chicago Bulls vs LA Lakers Game 2 - The Move Jordan 33 Full Highlights HD

[@Thetruth11033]

Damn Jordan was a great passer

[@76JStucki]

An often overlooked part of his game. Early on he didn’t have much of a team. But when he had a good team, and learned to trust them, he passed very effectively.

[@JC-Utopic-Gauntlet]

@@76JStucki he always trusted his team but he was not playing the point except for this series and 88. The only year he took to many shots was his 4th but that was after they blew up his team.

[@AHMAD-2324]

Michael Jordan's court vision was the most underrated part of his Game.

[@dallasdaniels7796]

I watched this as a kid. That move is STILL to this day the most wtf nba moment of all-time for me. 😳😲

[@ObiWanGinobiliTopFan]

You mean the 2-handed Bill Cartwright dunk..right? 😝 Hah in all seriousness, that Jordan move was INSANE. I kinda wish he'd done a tomahawk power dunk instead, but everyone's seen dozens of those... His switch-hands layup was something new. And mind blowing. 🤯

8:29 Phil Jackson tryin to play it off like he's not impressed with Jordan taking risks to showboat in the finals, but couldn't help but smile. 😆

[@chimaera078]

It was never a 'showboat'. MJ thought the center guy wants to block the shot so he adapted mid-air.

[@jayscribe7547]

Jordan is the greatest basketball player I’ve ever seen

[@eastwood_ib2126]

God made the perfect basketball player when he made him smh ! No weaknesses in his game damn

[@johncullinane8061]

This was the game that started the Bulls dynasty imo

[@c.o.g7375]

Hell no it was when they swept the pistons in the series before this

[@TheSands83]

[@FlyAwayChi]

​@@c.o.g7375Wrong, if they loss this game and went down 0-2 the Bulls would lost their confidence and never recovered. THIS game changed everything

[@evervictorious007]

This was the game where Pippen became a man possessed, scoring 20 points (8 out of 16 shooting) handling out 10 assists. But the iconic image of him hounding Magic Johnson like a pesky insect, battling the Lakers legend into frustration and limiting him to just 14 points on 4 out of 13 shooting

[@JC-Utopic-Gauntlet]

you could always watch the game and see that the bulls help defense saved pippen's ass.

[@claypool85]

"Houdnding Magic John Like a pesky insect" Magic Johnson in Game 2, 14 pt, 10 assist, 7 rebound. Ok, you never play this game.

[@evervictorious007]

@@JC-Utopic-Gauntlet more like saving MJ’s ass. Magic was MJ’s assignment but his Airness picked up 2 early first quarter fouls that his teammates had to come over to help bail him out. Pippen who was guarding Worthy had to leave him to Cliff Livingston while he come over to help his buddy to guard Magic. John Paxson despite scoring 16 points on perfect 8 of 8 shooting had his game time limited to just 22 mins coz of MJ’s foul trouble.

[@JC-Utopic-Gauntlet]

@@evervictorious007 well after his teamates collectively choked game one a game that should have been easily won I can not have in my heart to feel bad for their extra effort.

[@evervictorious007]

@@JC-Utopic-Gauntlet Game 1 was a wake-up call for the Bulls. They were leaving everything to MJ. Sometimes the Bulls need games and losses like G1 in order to have them to wake up their goddamn ideas or else they take everything for granted thinking MJ is God and just throw the entire load and responsibility onto him but the fact that he’s also human no matter how GOAT he is.

[@buckwildboys1]

MJ went 15-18 for 33 with 13 dimes.. damn thats efficient. Best of his era! With Magic, Bird, Isiah and Hakeem in the next group.

[@ObiWanGinobiliTopFan]

Isiah is forever underrated but I'll take Barkley or David Robinson over him any day.

[@slydEvil35]

@@ObiWanGinobiliTopFan agreed but only because of their height. Pound for pound Isaiah is easily one of the most naturally gifted players ever.

[@coreyortiz9913]

MJ is the greatest of all time and I only started watching NBA in 2006 about 3 yrs after his second retirement I was born in 1999

[@mmucc073]

​@Corey Ortiz one of the rare youngsters who never saw him play actually speaks facts...I like it...

[@mmucc073]

​@@ObiWanGinobiliTopFan Barkley had heart and yes I go with him and I'd take Karl also... not a fan of him but I respect him. Reggie could be in the convo...idk I fuckin hate Isaiah lol

[@SPtheGREAT]

I witnessed this as it happened...still get goosebumps...

[@hjpev6469]

Man, you can see just how much basketball has changed when you watch those handoffs to Paxson at 7:13. He's JUST inside the 3 point line several times. You would never see that in today's NBA.

[@joshnic6639]

I remember watching this when I was a kid, im 42 now and I remember after the game the Lakers talking about Jordan hotdog’n it. I never really believed that, but after watching these highlights I can tell that leading up to the switch hands layup, Air Jordan was feeling himself a little too much.

0:36 Wow!…Beautiful!…right over the top of MJ! It was this game that the torch was passed from Magic to Michael! But after the game 1 Laker win, Magic was still numero uno in the NBA, up until the middle of this contest when Bulls pulled ahead to win game 2

[@kestutisjurevicius3177]

[@natedablack7857]

Bronsexuals: "The '91 Lakers were old when MJ beat them!" Me: * Elden Campbell (21 yrs old) * Vlade (22 yrs old) * AC Green (27 yrs old) * B. Scott/S. Perkins/J. Worthy (29 yrs old) * Magic (31 yrs old)

[@natedablack7857]

@Tim Tate The false narratives about MJ and his comp, that these bronsexuals push, just to elevate LBJ in stature in these comparisons is just mind numbing...SMH

[@TimWing23]

And Magic had won the MVP the year before. Byron Scott should've made the All-star team in 1988 and was still a good player. Always shot well in the playoffs look at his career playoff stats.

[@jessekittrell2946]

Lol Riley had left as coach, Kareem had left, Worthy was so hurt he couldn't even finish the series, & Magic was months from retiring with HIV. They weren't close to '80s Lakers bud. 🤦🏼‍♂️ They were a pretty good team that's it. And THATS the only team the Bulls played in the Finals that had more than 1 or 2 HOFers on it.

[@jessekittrell2946]

@Tim Wing Scott was hurt this series (which is why he went from avging 14 pts that season to 4 pts this series). Worthy was so hurt he couldn't finish the series (suffered an injury from the series before then it got worse). Magic was months away from retiring with HIV. No Riley or Kareem. I would have LOVED to see how these Bulls would have done against the mid '80s Lakers ('85-'87). Pippen is EXTREMELY underrated .....just the 6 years the Bulls won rings Pip made 5 All NBA Teams & 6 All Defensive Teams.... ALL EIGHTEEN seasons of Lebrons career he's had ALLLLL his teammates COMBINED make 5 All NBA Teams (Wade '11/'12/'13, Kyrie '15, & AD '20) & TWO All Defensive Teams (Varejao in '09 & AD in '20). Mjs had 2 seasons were he had as many All Defense teammates in ONE season as Lebrons had his ENTIRE CAREER... thats pretty crazy to think about. So is Horace. PER is a good stat to show overall contribution/how well overall a player played (the MVP is usually top 1-4 in PER). In '91 Horace finished 46th '92- 16th (so they had THREE players in the top 16...Lebrons Heat didn't even have that) '93- 39th For contrast to gage how good that is - the 4 seasons Bosh played in Miami he finished 31st, 41st, 24th, & 36th. He never made All Defensive Team either ... Horace did. When left in his prime Pip & Horace led the Bulls to just TWO fewer wins, made the playoffs, advanced, & pushed the eventual EC Champs to 7 games barely losing by a few points. Lebron left Wade & Bosh in Miami & they finished 10th in a weaker East. They were perfect to put around MJ. Allows him to focus on scoring & spurts of elite lockdown defense. It's why in '95 with no Horace they got beat... but then signed Rodman to fill that role & it completed the team again. Pip actually led the Bulls in 3 or more of the 5 major categories (points/rebounds/assists/steals/blocks) in FOUR of their Finals.... MJ did it only ONE Finals (Lebrons done it EIGHT). Like I said would love to see the real showtime Lakers vs these Bulls. Never got to see the Bulls go against a great/dynasty type team from '91-'98. Great teams make more than 1 or 2 Finals. Most of the time they have 3-4 HOFers on them... which is WHY they keep getting to the Finals lol. Easier to dominante when ur the ONLY great team... harder to when there are 2-3 in the league.

Andddd that's the ONLY Finals out of 6 where he led his team in 3 or more categories out of the main 5 (points/rebounds/assists/blocks/steals). Pip did it FOUR of their 6 Finals. Lebrons done it in EIGHT of his teams 10. 🤷🏼‍♂️
