- Short interviews with Kobe/Jordan before the game, and an interview with Jordan after the game.

- 3:58 - 4:12: Kobe hits a nice fadeaway over Jordan, few seconds later, Dick Stockton, "You're looking at the present and the future, right there".

Side notes - Shaq/Pippen didn't play, Lakers were 18-5 going into the game, Chicago was 14-9. Lakers lost this game 83-104, but won the rematch 112-87 on Feb 1.

Amazing.

I wish all the best players could somehow have entered the NBA all at the same time, what a league that would be.

Jordan knew that Kobe was the next great. Kobe was in the race for 6th man of year I believe that year.

All I want for Christmas is a Laker girl

Jordan knew that Kobe was the next great. Kobe was in the race for 6th man of year I believe that year.

Yeah off the bench in the last 2 games he'd scored 30 and 27 and then 33 against the Bulls. Kobe was going to be special. It is great how Jordan got to face off against Kobe one last time when Kobe was in his prime in Jordan's final year.

I'll always remember that game.

If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.

You should reach more often
