Top 30 Moments in Chicago Bulls History

8a. Scottie Pippen (and the bench) lead the Bulls to back-to-back titles in 1992

Scottie Pippen remains one of the NBA’s most overlooked superstars in the game’s history. Without Pippen’s all-around versatility, not only is Michael Jordan not the game’s greatest player, the Chicago Bulls don’t win six titles.

Those thoughts were proven true during Game 6 of the 1992 NBA Finals. The Bulls were attempting to clinch back-to-back championships at home, but found themselves down 15 points to start the fourth quarter against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Enter Scottie Pippen and … the bench.

Without their leader at the start, Pippen and the reserves led one of the greatest comebacks in NBA Finals history.

With all of the momentum in the world, Jordan reentered the game and the Bulls would eventually go on to win 97-93 and clinch their first of two title wins at home during their run of six championships in eight years.

Something else happened in that series … oh, right!

8b. “The Shrug”

Michael Jordan scored 35 points during the opening 24 minutes of Game 1 in the 1992 NBA Finals and hit six threes.

Let me repeat that, 35 points … in two quarters … while hitting six threes.

Who ever said Michael Jordan couldn’t shoot threes?
