    No, he did that against the Jazz. The Mutumbo play happened later on in his career.

    There are tons of Jordan moments, I also have his DVD's. The "Last Shot" of course is one moment. But there was this play-off game against New York, where Jordan drove down the lane hard and Ewing fell. After making the basket, Jordan was talking trash (hard) to Ewing while he was still sitting on the floor. And this was in Madison Square Garden. It showed MJ's intensity.

    My favorite Jordan moment is when he beat the Sonics on Father's day and started crying. I liked the symbolism, etc. [​IMG]

    "The Shrug", easy for me, as I was going through all of the posts, I couldn't believe it wasn't on any. I also love the Cavs buzzer-beater.

    On the other side, I think the most overrated moment was "The Switch" against the Lakers. I know it looked great and it showed how long he can stay in the air, but there was no reason for it, lol. I've watched it many times, and he could've easily dunked it, Vlade doesn't come over all the way, lol. Maybe I'm just a bitter Lakers fan, heh, but it bothers me when people look at all of his great moments and choose that one.

    I just posted my top 10 and it somehow exited out of it so I'm pissed and I'll just say my most memorable Jordan moment.

    Game winner against Utah in Game 6 of the 1998 Finals

    This is very likely the most overrated move ever. Like you said he couldve easily dunked it, or just layed it up. It is in EVERY jordan or any bball highlight reel i swear.

    The switch move is overrated. But it has to be in the top 15 moves all-time

    ^^ no way. Imo you will see a better move every game of the nba season. It was a LAYUP on NOBODY. he just switched hands because he thought it was gonna be blocked. The only reason why it looks so cool is because they show it in slow motion.

    While it is slightly overated, how can you say you will see a better move in every game of the NBA season? It was still a sick play even if you don't pick it as your favorite.

    If you check the sportscenter top ten every day during the season, there are at least 5 plays better imo. I just dont think the move is that good at all. It looks cool, but a sick reverse layup is better imo.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting NaKz:</div><div class="quote_post">That reminds me. When Mutumbo calls out Jordan saying Jordan has never dunked on him. Next game Jordan dunks on Mutumbo and waves his finger at him. Now that is classic.</div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">4. Showing Mutumbo that he can make a free-throw with his eyes closed. Classic.</div>

    Beautiful Jordan moments.....Man....I loved Jordan. There truly will never be anyone like him. [​IMG]

    Okay, thank you... I was worried that all of the Jordan fans would attack me for putting down the move, lol. Glad to see that someone else agrees.

    There are my favorites:
    1992 NBA Finals Game 1 first half when he made 6 3PT's and scored 35points,shot against Jazz in 98 finals and there was one sick play from him versus Knicks (PO game) in early 90's when he was dunking the ball in the air and 2 guys were stopping him like Manu did with Dirk alone in West finals this year and he still got the shot to go in..it was just amazing.

    The End

    My favorite Jordan moment....when he retired for good!!! Dont get me wrong, Jordan was the man, but I was a huge Barkley fan, and with Jordan there, Charles couldnt get over that hump! But Im glad now that he is with my homeboys! The Bobcats,,,give them three years...and we will see.
