I believe that regular season Home Game record o believe still stands today. That is one of the Arguments that the 86 Celtics were the best team to ever play.
@@whataboutrob442 I don't think so because the teams in the NBA then were not that strong except for the Lakers and maybe the Sixers. These Celtics are overrated lol.
Game 2 is where it was at. Michael Jordan verses the soon to be World Champion Boston Celtics. 63 points. Still the NBA single game playoff scoring record.
@@bobthabuilda1525It's a fundamental rule of basketball - can't walk with the ball. Enough with the "boomer" bullsh1t. Today's NBA is a 3 point shooting contest with extra guys on the court, no defense, and they can take 9 steps without a traveling call. It's garbage.
The only way I could see that being a travel is if he slid his right foot before he stepped with his left to shoot. If they called the travel because he stepped with his left foot to shoot that is not a travel as long as you shoot or pass, once you lift the pivot foot….. maybe it’s because he didn’t jump. Hard to tell what they thought maybe not a good angle so it confused the ref. He did get pushed though. Some questionable calls in this game also that traveling on Jerry sichthing (spelling) was not a travel that was more offensive foul, but they didn’t want to give him one. He was an amazing role player man
Fucking Basketball thank God. You could really post these games daily and you would get more attention then the NBA now, but Thank you really. I been wanting to watch some real basketball for some time now ❤
There's a still from game 3 showing he was averaging 56 for the series. A slight preview of how elite his motor would eventually be for future postseasons (amazing for most fans, purists, casuals, etc)
And LeBron fans like to point out all the time about Jordan getting swept by this Celtics team in only his 2nd season in the NBA. Dude was just coming off a broken foot that kept him out for most of the season!
MJ coming off a broken right foot early in the season... 1st playoff game ever for him... 2nd playoff game ever for Mike it's a Smithsonian performance against the mighty Celtics... Bulls still got swept but # 23 put the world on notice at the Old Boston Garden big time
Classic team basketball by the Celtics, too many weapons for the young Bulls. Little did the world know what game 2 had in store in terms of fun basketball and historical performances
April 17 , 1986 .. im pretty sure that Len Bias from University Maryland watched this Game then went out an Worked Out when it was over, getting Himself ready to Play against Jordan in the 1986 - 1987 Nba Hoop Season
@@oscarfairley6600 Not True . Len Bias did the Exact Same thing as i did after the Game was Over, He went to the Gym to Work on His Game to get Ready for the Nba.
@@1968-b3nno, he focused on partying, and doing drugs, that eventually lead to his death, even if he didn't die, he will become a bust because of lack of dedication in the sport.
@@zinjgreen3398 Len Bias went to the Gym after He Watched this Game an how Jordan Exploded to go Work Out, He was like that an so Am i , all that other stuff is your opinion .
I like the 80's Chicago.mJordan was amazing and the team pla fast and clever. But I adore the Celtics choreography: they don't play, they dance. But most of all, it delights me how DJ play against MJ, the allegedly best player of all times. Of course Denis Johnson was one of the great players of the 70's and 80's.
I never wanted Chicago to lose so badly as this game. "Where's Michael? Where's Michael?" If he has the ball, he's shooting 'cause he sure can't pass. Three assists---big whoop. He seems determined not to be a team player.
Dropping 63 pts on what most people agree to be the greatest team ever is just one reason why he is the goat, and there was no-one better than him during THIS particular time too.
I found Game 2 on RU-vid for those who wish to continue the series (or see MJ's scoring record): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wFMN_IQR3lM.html
Too much iso ball he says. As compared to today??? Moron watch the video the Celtics were dropping dimes all game. Even the commentators kept harping on the Bulls iso style of play
Today is boring, that's why your ratings ARE LOWER THAN WHALE FECES! ratings were higher here. Ratings matter! Nobody cares about AAU. Schematics and real set plays are far more effective.
