This was MJ's first truly
great NBA game. In just his
9th game as a pro, rookie MJ
would take over a game due to
necessity and dominate with
his athleticism and will.
While this became MJ's first
40+ pt game (in his career of
217 40+ games), this really
should have been a 55pt game
because MJ missed a few easy
layups and free throws which
were uncharacteristic of him.
But throughout the game, his
knack for the big play and
spectacular drama occurred in
the most crucial moments. With
phenomenal moves, hang-time
jumpers and an innate ability
to create, young MJ took over
the league by storm and this
was the beginning.
