Second-year 5-foot-10 Stoudamire outscored Michael Jordan 26-24 and had 11 assists without a lot of offensive options for the expansion startup Toronto Raptors against the vaunted Chicago Bulls defense at the United Center. I don't know who would call rookie Camby a great offensive option. Stoudamire had lots of high-scoring games against the Bulls during his first two seasons in the league. He's taking them off the dribble, crossing them up, going left.

As he usually did, Michael made sure to get his early, but then he stopped shooting and only took 16 shots from the field. He also got a gripe in to the refs on a foul.

Ron had to deal with an ill-informed heckler during the game and maybe several.

Michael made sure to get his early





That's because the game was a blowout and won early on, so that's when Jordan got his points.. Once it was garbage time, he shut down - he always does that - see the 96' Finals.

Btw, what were Pippen's stats in this game?... As usual, he was destroyed by the opposing 2nd option, so the Bulls had to win in spite of him (just like they did in the 93' Playoffs or 96-98' Playoffs when the Bulls won in spite of his worst-ever performances).






As he usually did,





Jordan got his points whenever the game was won - if the game was a blowout early like this game, then rest assured that's when Jordan got his... If the game was tight down the stretch, then his goat clutch stats came to the fore - Jordan's clutch stats are 2nd to none (last 5 within 5, or 4th quarter stats)

Food reivew on a website/social-media: "This restaurant gets a 2/10. The service was bad. The food had no salt. And the decor was weird."

3ball in the comments: Pippen gets a 2/10. His service to Chicago was bad. He never "cooked" on the court. And he always appeared to be weird/clunky.
