Michael Jordan’s buzzer beating series clincher over Craig Ehlo and the Cleveland Cavaliers is forever etched in Bulls and NBA history. Though Jordan had announced himself in years earlier with legendary performances in the Boston Garden, the Bulls had only been out of the first round of the playoffs once in five attempts with him in town.
It had also been thirteen years in total since the Bulls had made it to a conference finals. Jordan was on a tear that series though, averaging 39 points with nine assists.
With the series tied at two a piece, the Bulls had three seconds and were down by one.
