For Old Time’s Sake: MJ ’91 season Opener

Not a bad way to start the season… We could do a Jordan clip everyday for the next 5 years and still have material to work with. MJ went on to to win his second title as well as regular season and finals MVP in ’92. Man, it would have been dope to watch Jordan play in HD.

    Ha, good one Erika. I roll with EBoy on most of his comments but you got him on that one.

    Just a look into how things are in the U.K. If I were to go into a normal street and say ”Chamberlain. Kobe. Celtics. Free Throw. The Forum. David Stern. Series. M.V.P” almost no-one would know what the hell I am talking about.
    If i said ”Micheal Jordan”, everybody knows the name

  • JTaylor21

    @Overtime just because those blokes with rotten teeth know his name doesn’t mean he is the G.O.A.T.

    Yeah….cause the foul call is what everyone watched this for….fuc$ing dope.

    And yes, there is a GOAT, and its Michael.

    Someone with connections at the NBA really needs to push the idea for the league to release entire seasons of teams to purchase over teh interwebz. Imagine going back and watching the entire 71-72 Lakers season where they whooped everyone? Seeing the entire MJ runs again? Imagine if you could do a whole season for $50 or something? I’d buy seasons in the summer to hold me over.

    @Barnabusb, I’ll pay double maybe even triple for that service. The team I like to see the most; either the 71 Bucks (Kareem/Oscar) or the 83 Sixers (Malone/Dr.J/Toney).

    I actually agree with you on this one JTaylor, I’m quite shocked we can agree on something. I’d personally like to go back and watch Bill Russell’s Celtic teams who obliterated the league for a decade. Then I would like to go back and watch every single game Jordan ever played. I would pay big bucks for that.

    I’d like to watch all of Walton’s trailblazers during their championship year

    I would pay to watch Antoine Carr’s workout routine!. NOT!!!

    Didn’t the Bulls end up losing this game?

  • barnabusb

    It’s kind of a niche market for the hardcore fans, but what else is the league doing with all of that footage? Release it online and make some bucks! I guess one issue is that the games just might be pretty boring/crappy to watch, and the league doesn’t want us to see that. Like maybe they’d rather us have a certain memory of Pistol Pete based on highlight packages they’ve put together instead of actually watching his games, which migth have been a little bit painful. But I still think it’s a good idea.

    MJ = GOAT , End of story

  • Overtime

    @Jtaylor, does show that he is a global icon unmacthed by any other to play in the NBA though. Maybe all american sports, i dont think theres another american sports star that comes any near to being as recognizable here.
    (Also, not all of us have rotten teeth, but good to show ur maturity levels)

    The stories I’ve read have said that Oscar dominated folks athletically early on, but wasn’t flashy. He was all fundamentals, but with the athletic ability to make that scary.
