Thats how it went down. MJ had 35 in the game. He dunked one time in this game. Yao Ming and Maurice Taylor moved out the way when he came thru to dunk. But....since Jordan turned 40, he's been averaging 30.4 ppg. Thats crucial. Do you think Jordan is tryin to go back to his big scoring style of ball?
Jordan scores 35 to beat the Rockets....
- Thread starter Gordon Gekko
- Start date
Shouldnt have been as close as the final score.....we were up 14 points with like 7 mins. left in the 4th.....But ill take it. a win is a win......And as far as MJ goin to his scoring style of ball again, i think you can count on it......MJ played 50 minutes in a game he was doubtful for this morning......He's going out with "no bullets left in his gun" as he said the other day.
Yeah they got the W...But His Airness is having some trouble with those CLUTCH shots...He`s looking like Webber out there when its CRUNCH TIME...Whats that now 3 oppertunities for Jordan to end the game and he comes up empty...The All-Star game before the OT...Then against Dallas BRICK...And now against the Rockets Brick....That used to be AUTOMATIC FOR HIS AIRNESS IN THE BULLS DAYS!
Isnt this guy injured? I heard he wasnt even going to play, damn. I think Jordan is really getting into the flow of things. Im rootin' for them to make the playoffs to and go as far as they can towards the finals. Mista Sinista, im not in any way saying this is why he's been scoring so much as of late, but on the news they mentioned that if he stayed on the same pace (the pace he was on pre-40 bd) then he would fall behind Chamberlain to 3rd all time in PPG. Its not exactly like shooting for the all time scoring record, but it was a big acomplishment when he was playing with the Bulls, to come back and somehow lose it would be horrible. Just something to think about, im sure there are a lot more factors that play into it. For the most part, I think hes just being Jordan.
Wilt: 30.1
MJ: 30.3
When he was scoring around 20ppg, they said if he continued on that pace he would drop below Wilt on the all time PPG list. I think as long as he starts throwin scoring 23-25 PPG give or take, he will be ok. Im not in any mood to do the math. Also a correction in my last post, he would fall to 2nd behind Wilt, Kareem is down at 24ppg, theres no way Jordan would drop that low.
