In what seemed like a great way to cap off his career, Jordan approached the game in a way that many fans had grown to love and admire. The level of unselfish play emanated gave the opposing team difficulty and it showed.
Allowing Michael Jordan to handle the ball in the game’s closing seconds, only to leave the winning buzzer beater in the hands of his teammate, Steve Kerr, must not go unnoticed.
Kerr was a career 45 percent shooter from deep and during his time in Chicago, and he showed time and time again how valuable he was. Kerr’s buzzer-beater holds entertainment value in the way the greatest of all-time leaves the crowd guessing.
Will Jordan shoot the ball or will he dish it off for the assist?
All Chicago Bulls fans know how that story ends. Certainly, this moment holds great significance not only to the team, but also to the fans standing in the crowd and watching at home.
