This is PRIME Michael Jordan 

Have you ever asked yourself why the Miami Heat retired Michael Jordan’s jerseys back in 2003?
I mean we all know how great he was but a franchise retiring it’s jersey for a player who’s never ever played there is kind of strange isn’t it ?
For that we need to go back to the 90s
To be exact, in the year 1992
Kriss Kross entered the Hip Hop Scene with their major hit “Jump”.
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was a box office success
and Michael Jordan, who came fresh off from winning his 3rd MVP put up one if not his most dominating Playoff Series of his Career against none other than the Miami Heat!
Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round of the Playoffs started with a bang !
MJ and the Chicago Bulls dominated the Match from the start and the Heat probably knew at Halftime that they have no chance at winning this Series.
Jordan dominated on both ends on the floor and made it for everyone clear why he has been the Most Valuable Player in the NBA.
Even his own teammates couldn’t believe how good he was in that game!
Game 1 ended in a blowout and His Airness finished the Game with a near 40 Point Triple Double!
You have to remember the nba back then was probably the most physical era ever so that fact alone makes the Statline even more impressive!
Game 2 ended in similar fashion
Although Jordan wasn’t as elite as he was in game 1 he was still dominant!
Watching those old games also makes me wonder how many points mj would average in todays NBA
Let me know in the comments if you got an idea!
To go back to the point , the Bulls won the match by a whopping 30 points
With Michael Jordan dropping 33 points , 13 Rebounds and 6 Assists!
But the best is yet to come for MJ..
Game 3 was highly competitive
One the hand the Miami Heat desperately wanted to avoid the sweep
On the other MJ and the Bulls wanted to bring the Series to an end
and it looked like the Heat were on their way to win their first game in this Series
They even led by 18 Points in the first quarter,
Even the great Michael Jordan had zero points in the first 10 minutes but like I said , the best was yet to come for Jordan
MJ quickly found his groove and from that moment on, it was a wrap!
MJ exploded for 35 Points in the second half
Hitting clutch Buckets and crushing all the hopes for the Miami Heat
His Jumper was on point that night and it showed in the Statsheet
Jordan Finished the Game with 56/5/5 while shooting over 66 % from the game
To sweep the Miami Heat
Jordan’s 56 Points were at that time the 3rd most points scored by a player in the postseason! Only trailing behind Eilgin Baylor who drooped 61 points in 1962
and guess who ?? MJ himself at number 1 with 63 points back in 1986 against the GOAT Boston Celtics team!
Even the Heat Players themselves couldn’t believe what they’ve witnessed
with one player saying He could score 100 Points! if he wanted too
Jordan’s Final averages are literally NBA 2K Numbers!
MJ averaged an astronomical 45 Points /10 Rebounds and 7 Assists on 61 percent from the field!
What the Hell!!
