Bulls @ Knicks, April 1988. Jordan 47 points April 19, 1988 78 games into the 1987-88 season, the Bulls were 48-30. They needed to win 2 out the final 4 games to reach the 50-win mark for the first time in 15 years. Scoring 47 points on 18-27 (67%) shooting, Jordan made sure they got the first one. He had various great dunks and drives along with the jumpers. This is the game in which he accidentally kicks Ewing in the head after one of his well-known alley-oops. And yes, commentary wasn't English. Enjoy. Post game notes and quotes: ========================= BULLS 121 KNICKS 118 NEW YORK -- Michael Jordan put on a magic dunking show and brilliant all-round scoring performance Tuesday night that had the local media, as well as himself, thinking MVP. He scored a game-high 47 points, including six sensational dunks, to lead the Bulls (49-30), the league's hottest team with six wins in a row, to a 121-118 victory over the Knicks before a sellout Madison Square Garden crowd of 15,591. "Do you think you should win the MVP this year?" a writer asked Jordan. "Sure," Jordan said. "I thought I played well enough to win it last year and didn't. I deserve to win it this year, too, because I'm playing even better. They've said in the past that to win MVP, you must be on a winning team and you must be a good all-round player. Well, if those are the credentials, then I believe I qualify. "Of course, that doesn't mean I'll get it. It depends upon you guys. I would like to get MVP for our fans, our team and myself. But more than anything, I want us to go all the way. And I want us to get 50 wins." Jordan has been fighting a stomach virus for the last four or five days, according to his coach Doug Collins, who simply shook his head in amazement at game's end while trying to describe Jordan's play. "He is just that rare athlete who finds a way to get himself mentally prepared for a game when he's not physically up to par," Collins said. "A mediocre player will use being sick as an excuse not to play well. Michael uses it to make himself better, to psyche himself up to a different level. It's a level a lot of people have never seen before." "I was struggling just trying to get through it," Jordan said after scoring more points than any player the Knicks have faced this season. "I felt bad before the game, but as it went on I just figured why stop now." "I don't know if there's anyone better than Jordan," New York Coach Rick Pitino said. "We tried to stop him, but he's Superman. You can't stop Superman. I don't have any Kryptonite. Several players can dominate a game, but none like him." The Bulls took control of the game with an 11-4 run in the last 3 1/2 minutes of the third quarter and took an 11-point lead going into the final period. Jordan had 12 points in the third period, but the best was yet to come. He had two straight thunder jobs in the mid-fourth. One was on an alley-oop feed from Vincent, capping a fast break and turning into a three-point play. His dunks electrified the Garden crowd that cheered him on. Jordan, hanging on the rim after Mark Jackson fouled him, swung around and added insult to injury when he accidentally kicked Knick center Patrick Ewing smack in the face. "That was the funniest thing I've seen in a while," Paxson said, "and probably the most exciting quarter of the season." On the Bulls' next possession moments later, the 6-6 Jordan drove the baseline and dunked over the seven-foot Ewing, again triggering a roar of cheers. "Jordan was unbelieveable," Collins said. "He broke their press consistently, took it right through their defense and scored." "He was simply amazing," Ewing said. "Nobody could stop him tonight." ''We needed a win and they needed a win,'' said Jordan, who shot 18 for 27 from the field. ''The challenge was there. I tried to disappoint them as much as possible. I really felt good in terms on my game. Once I'm hitting the outside jumper the way I did tonight, it makes me a more deadly player.'' The Knicks came back with a three-point play by Gerald Wilkins, a Trent Tucker layup, Ewing's short hook and another short jumper by Wilkins to get within 119-118 with 47 seconds left. It was Jordan's turn again. Everyone in the rocking arena knew he was getting the ball, and Jackson had no choice but to foul him as he drove to the basket with 12 seconds left. Jordan made both free throws for the final margin, but the Bulls still had to sweat out three final shots. Wilkins fired first from three-point range and Jordan partially blocked it. Tucker got the rebound and forced another shot that was rebounded by Ewing. Immediately, he fired out to Jackson. "The last shot felt real good leaving my hands," Jackson said, "But I kind of rushed it a little. I was real concerned about getting it off before the buzzer. But what can you do, we've won some like that, too." Tags: Michael Jordan Bulls Knicks 1988 Chicago New York Bird Kareem Wilt Lebron Wade Kobe Tmac Iverson |

Bulls vs. Knicks 1988-89. Jordan 37pts/9rbs December 29, 1988 Bulls and Knicks also met in the playoffs later in the season and this game was kind of a warmup for that series. Prior to this game (25 games), Jordan was averaging 35.4 points on an absurd 55.2% shooting. He comes out very aggresive for this game, has 4 dunks, one alleyoop, and numerous great drives and layups. The game is also important because it's Pippen's only the second start in his Bulls career. With the help of some good fortune he manages to make the game-winning shot at the buzzer. There were some minor video problems at the end of the game, but the replay for Pippen's shot was fine. (no Jordan basket or move is missed). Post game notes & quotes: ========================= BULLS 108 KNICKS 106 Scottie Pippen's basket at the buzzer gave the Bulls a 108-106 victory over the New York Knicks last night in Chicago. Jordan, who finished with 37 points, provided the oppportunity for Pippen to play hero when his layup with 44 seconds left tied the score at 106-106. Patrick Ewing, who gave the Knicks the lead 15 seconds earlier on a 3-point play, tried to put his team ahead again before Jordan's basket but missed an off-balance shot. Neither Charles Oakley nor Grant could control the rebound. The Bulls gained possession when the ball went out of bounds off Oakley. Jordan had the first chance at the winner, driving through a defensive maze of Knicks for a twisting bank shot that rimmed out into Grant's hands. "I got the ball and found (Patrick) Ewing right upon me," Grant said. "He bothered my shot and I got it up off balance. It bounced off the rim right toward Scottie." ''It was a sweet shot,'' said Pippen, who also had six rebounds. ''I was looking at the clock when Horace took the shot. There were two seconds left and I knew the ball was going to come out high." "This is probably the most exciting winning shot I've ever made because this was a great, great game from start to finish. This game meant so much to us. And the shot I made was a dream shot, almost a once-in-a-lifetime shot." Jordan was as relieved as anybody. The fate of the game did not rest totally upon his shoulders for a change. The victory snapped the Bulls' two-game losing streak and left their record at 14-12. The Knicks are 18-9 and remain atop the Atlantic Division. "This was justice served because the Knicks beat us at the buzzer just like this two years ago," Jordan said. Rick Pitino was not around to see the Knicks suffer their second 2-point loss in three nights and fall to 6-8 on the road. With 7 minutes 56 seconds remaining, the Knicks' coach was ejected from the game by Ted Bernhardt, one of the 18 new officials hired when the league went to 3 referees this season. Bernhardt charged Pitino with two technical fouls about 10 seconds apart. Craig Hodges converted the two foul shots to put the Bulls ahead, 94-92. Stu Jackson, Pitino's chief assistant, took over the team. ''The first technical foul was well deserved,'' admitted Pitino. ''The second wasn't. It was the ref's first year and it was a rookie mistake on his part.'' ============================ For other Jordan games, check below. http://www.youtube.com/user/hoopsencyclopedia Tags: Michael Jordan Bulls Knicks 1989 Chicago New York Bird Kareem Wilt Lebron Wade Kobe Tmac Iverson |

Toronto Raptors vs New York Knicks Mar.29/08 Chris Bosh is rounding back into form and T.J. Ford's confidence is on the rise, and that's good news for Toronto with 10 games to go in the regular season. Bosh had 29 points and 10 rebounds, and Ford added 10 points and nine assists in one of his best games in months, to lead the Raptors to a 103-95 win over the hapless New York Knicks on Friday. The win wasn't a particularly inspired one for the Raptors, but it was their second in a row after an ugly stretch of poor performances, and it was good enough to propel the Raptors to sixth in the Eastern Conference. ``It's really important, we definitely want to go into the playoffs on a roll,'' Bosh said. ``It's all about momentum and if we can start some momentum up right, I think that will look really good for us and be a big confidence booster.'' [ ] Rasho Nesterovic added 18 points and eight boards in another strong game for the Raptors (37-35). ``I thought Rasho, for the last month and a half (played well),'' said Raptors coach Sam Mitchell. ``We just have to keep him going the way he's been going. He's played great.'' Anthony Parker added 15 points and Andrea Bargnani chipped in with 12 points. Jamal Crawford led the struggling Knicks (20-52) with 26 points, while Jared Jeffries added 21. The Raptors led from the opening whistle, and looked headed for a relatively easy night, taking a 17-point lead in the second quarter. But instead of putting the Knicks away for good, they squandered their lead in a matter of four minutes as the Knicks cut the lead to three points. ``For whatever reason, we just could not put this game away,'' Mitchell said. ``We would make a little spurt but they would come down and get a three-point play or hit a shot or we would come down and turn the ball over, but we just could not put them away.'' Toronto took a 76-68 lead into the fourth quarter in front of a capacity crowd of 19,800 at the Air Canada Centre, and stretched it to 11 points early in the frame. New York fought to within eight points several times in the final few minutes, but could get no closer. With 2:31 left in the game, Ford brought the crowd to its feet when he faked out Jeffries, leaving the Knicks forward sprawling to the court, and the Raptors went on to secure an important win. Ford played well in only his second start since injuring his neck Dec. 11, shooting 5-for-7 from the field. ``I'm just trying to play, trying to get wins, trying to get a better seeding, understanding that we had a tough couple of weeks and we're trying to get things turned around,'' Ford said. ``The only way you can do that is continue to play the right way and play team basketball.'' Bosh, who shot 10-for-17 on the night, played 47 minutes and looked like he's finally over the knee injury that sidelined him for 10 games _ an ugly stretch for the Raptors who went 2-8 without him. ``Just (need to work on) conditioning, today I was pretty tired,'' Bosh said. ``Best way to get in shape is playing games. ``I feel good, it's basketball at the end of the day to me, so it's just going to take a couple of days, couple of games just to get back. I've been working pretty hard in practice to get my legs back and working hard in game situations. I feel that I can really help this team out and I'll be 100 per cent when it counts.'' The Raptors shot 51 per cent on the night, and held the Knicks to 39 per cent. Toronto also outrebounded their visitors 45-38. Since the game went down to the final few minutes, Raptors newcomer Linton Johnson didn't get in the game. The Raptors signed the forward to a 10-day contract on Thursday, waiving veteran guard Darrick Martin. ``I'm just fortunate to be in the position to do something I love doing,'' Johnson said at the morning shootaround. ``I've been playing basketball all my life and I just appreciate the opportunity this organization's given me.'' Mitchell said the move wasn't made to send a particular message to his players, although he added that the team could play better. ``It's on everybody, pick it up, play better,'' Mitchell said. ``It's a message that we're trying to improve. ``(Johnson) is a really good young man, hard worker, and we just want to take a look at him. It's not a message purposely being sent but if someone in that locker-room perceives it as a message, then maybe they should wake up.'' The Raptors took a nine-point lead midway through the first quarter on a driving hook shot by Nesterovic. Toronto took a 32-23 advantage into the second. The Raptors stretched their lead to 17 points in the third quarter on a three-pointer by Carlos Delfino. But a 14-0 Knicks run cut the Raptors' lead down to just three points with 50 seconds left in the half. Toronto led 49-44 at the break. A three by Bosh capped a mini Raptors run in the third to put the home team up by 12 points, and Toronto headed into the fourth quarter ahead 76-68.

Retro NBA: New York Knicks 1970 In the 1969--70 season, the Knicks had a then-NBA record 18 straight victories en route to 60-22 record, which was the best regular season record in the team's history. After defeating the Bullets in the Eastern Division semifinals and the Milwaukee Bucks in the Eastern Division finals, the Knicks faced the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals. With the series tied at 2--2, the Knicks would be tested in Game 5. Reed tore a muscle in his right leg in the first quarter, and was lost for the rest of the game. Despite his absence, New York would go on to win the game, rallying from a 16--point deficit. Without their injured captain the Knicks would lose Game 6, setting up one of the most famous moments in NBA history. Reed limped onto the court before the 7th game, determined to play through his pain. He scored New York's first two baskets before going scoreless for the remainder of the contest. Although he was not at full strength, Reed's heroics inspired the Knicks, and they won the game by a score of 113-99, giving them their first championship Tags: new york knicks |
