Michael Jordan 1986 Playoffs: 63pts, Gm 2 Vs. Celtics
MJ's 1st 50+pt game is this Legendary Game. It's still the playoff record and is ranked 3rd in the book "Michael Jordan's Top 50 Games".NBA Sophomore MJ was just 23 years old but he would show the world in just his 6th playoff game that there would never be another player like him again.This Celtics team was considered perhaps the greatest team ever. Having won 67 games, 40-1 at home, 31 straight at home and on a 14 win streak, MJ single-handedly almost dismantled them. After scoring 49 points in Game 1 (which I also have up on youtube), McHale said, "That will never happen again." The Celtics went back and brainstormed to stop MJ and came back to hold MJ to 63. At times, putting 4-5 bodies on Jordan, Jordan was well, still Jordan.MJ missed 64 games in the regular season with a broken foot and returned just 6 weeks earlier but in this game, the legend of Michael Jordan was born. Scoring on vicious attacks, athletic jumpers from everywhere and finesse and power moves all at once, MJ displayed an intensity to win and take the entire Boston Team all by himself. It was chilling to watch.Scaring the guts out of the Champion Celtics in their unbeatable home court, MJ played a game that still stands as the greatest post-season record of all-time with 63 points. The only quote you need to remember is Bird saying, "That was God disguised as Michael Jordan. He's the most awesome player I've ever seen...he was getting his points in the flow of the game...scary." Celtics coach KC Jones added, "I was watching and all I could see was this giant Jordan and everyone else was just in the background."

Hey faggot, Elgin Baylor had 61 points against the Celtics YOU FUCK BEAST, BUT IT WAS THE 60S FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. Guys like Wilt Chamberlain dropped 100 points. The toughest defensive league was THE 80s. Elgin couldn't drop 30 on those Celtics. ASSHOLE. LEARN THE LEAGUE.

The part of this vid most people overlook was the clutch free throws by Mike to send the game into the 1st overtime with no time left. That's what greatness is all about. To 328823, yes there was illegal D back then (eg u couldn't double a player before he receives the ball). Now it's basically if a defender is in the lane for 3 plus secs without guarding anyone.

MJ made Dennis Johnson - one of the league's best hard nosed defenders at that time his puppet.

that doesn't make sense, it was in the early 2000's that illegal defences were actually legalised.

i love kobe but he would not get to the rim as much because there was no such thing as ilegal D

Not only that, they were the top defensive team in the league and one of the greatest teams of all time. The most points ever given up by them to a single player was something like 30 pts. This guy exploded in the playoffs for 63!
