"The Shot" - A GOAT Trilogy

[Nero Christ]

"The Shot" part 1 - May 7, 1989

On May 7, 1989, Chicago Bulls superstar Michael Jordan delivered one of the most legendary moments of his career when he hit "The Shot" to eliminate the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 of the 1989 first-round NBA playoffs series.

"The Shot" part 2 - May 17, 1993

Who says sequels can't live up to the original Jordan once again breaks the heart of the cavs as the Bulls would go onto sweep the cavs and advance to the ECF.



"The Shot" part 3 - January 31, 2002

Now on the far other side of his career, Old Man Jordan still proves himself to be the clutchest player the game has ever seen. There was no title on the line...the next round wasn't in the balance; it was a regular season game but the GOAT didn't treat it as such and it lead to the third spectacular finish of this trilogy

his series ender vs the Cavs in 93 was "the shot 2"

I've been doing the Craig Ehlo flail all the time.

LOL @ Ehlo's lack of lift to alter that shot.

MJ killed the crappy defensive SG in the NBA era

No hate, OP, but I always had a different version of Jordan's "The Shot" trilogy. I never thought of it as three Cleveland-endin shots.

'82 ncaa championship
'89 shot over ehlo
'98 crossover and finals clinchin jumper

The GOAT of this hoop ish regardless.
