    In an interview with Chapman, he stated, “It was a lucky game. We had eight players and were in the middle of a trade. We didn’t have a full complement of players.”

    Rex then revealed what the Chicago Bulls were doing in Miami the night before the game. “They were in Miami out all night on south beach and I know they were because I was with right there with them,” Chapman confessed. “They thought that they had a night off and I went in and I just caught fire and we beat them. That was the year they went 72-10. If not for that, they would have gone 73-9.”

    However, the next time they went up against the Bulls, Rex had to face the competitive side of Jordan. “Jump Ball… two weeks later, ball goes in the air, and Michael went CRACK! and got me right in the sternum with an elbow. And I went, ‘Oh f***! It’s going to be like that tonight, I guess’ and it was exactly like that tonight. He got like 40 in three quarters and I went 3 for 13 for 13 points.”

    Has anyone won a finals mvp while a teammate of his averaged less than 10 ppg but still managed to get finals mvp votes?

    By winning more than 2 Finals without a FMVP sidekick or elite-scoring sidekick (25+), Jordan won with what no one else could - everyone else in history that won more than 2 Finals needed a teammate to get FMVP or 25 ppg for at least 1 of the Finals... but Pippen is 0/6 in FMVP and peaked at 21 ppg, so Jordan won way more with way less

    Jordan got lit up by a footnote in NBA history then played Pistons ball to ensure the victory thereafter, the refs looking the other way. I wonder how he’d react to a Lebron elbow to the face and why he only goes after guys of a certain complexion
