1993 NBA Finals Game 6: Jordan scores all but three points in 4th, Bulls finish three-peat
There was only one player that hit a shot in the fourth quarter of the 1993 NBA Finals for the Chicago Bulls that wasn’t Michael Jordan: current Bulls general manager John Paxson.
Sure, Jordan literally carried the Bulls to the finish line with nine of the Bulls’ final 12 points, but Paxson’s shot sealed the Bulls’ third consecutive NBA title.
The series itself was one of the weirdest in history, with the road team winning five(!) of the six games, including the Bulls in Game 6.
