This is the first time I've ever seen this game on the internet. It has one of the all time classic Jordan moves, probably best known from Michael Jordan's playground.

sick play... jordan has a zillion super-highlight plays like this that no one in history does.

even if you see a guy do a shot like this, it was probably the only time in their career they did it.

whereas jordan might have a hundred shots like this in his career - that's just how he played - the goat-level.

It was in Michael Jordan's Playground, he did that a few times actually.

Was funny hearing the audible gasp from the Portland fans when they showed it on the jumbotron though.

Yeah, Jordan has done that back-to-the-basket no-look shot while slapping the hands at least a dozen times that I know of, probably more. He just had an amazing awareness around the basket.

13 shots and 0 rebounds in only 36 minutes? He took a whole quarter off. What happened? :wtf:
