Players in "takeover mode" in the playoffs

[Fatal9]

Jordan 1991-1998

True but I'm specifically looking for short stretches where the player just can't be stopped, not full game performances. Lot of these games being mentioned he had a brilliant performances, but I want to see some epic takeover shit possession after possession.

Jordan did that too ... see 13 straight FGA.

See Jordan in game 7 1992 v.s. Knicks.

The list could go on and on all day, kid ...

And Jordan usually did that ish for 48 mins in his epic "takeover mode" ... which makes it even more significant.

Jordan was always stuck in "takeover mode" so much so that you mind as well call him Jay Z.

Look at T-Mac cut the deficit in the second quarter of this game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx1IY5ZFAxw

Dude scored 60% of his team's points in this game (scored 46, rest of his team 21). Has that ever happened in the playoffs before?

That alley-oop reverse lay-up at 55 seconds was SICK.

Dude used to be so silky. A shame that all the injuries destroyed his game. He could've been one of the all time greats.

He still is one of the all-time greats ...

Had a great run of 8 years as an elite player.

True. Fatal, we can't list all of Jordan's short bursts or the server would crash. Even if you're talking full games, we'll be here all day. And since we're counting losses (like Isiah's outburst against LA in 88)...

1997 Game 5 vs Heat 4th quarter

1993 Game 2 vs Knicks 4th quarter

1996 Game 3 vs Knicks 4th quarter (leading into overtime)

1997 Game 3 vs Bullets 4th quarter

1990 Game 3 vs Sixers 4th quarter (almost led an epic comeback)

I can go on...

Call. Off. The. Dogs. While. You. Can. Still. Save. Your. Thread.

This was beast and my favorite of the ones you mentioned.

Moving on...

There were other players in history besides MJ, I think?

Man someone needs to upload Pierce's third quarter in game 4 against the Pacers in 2003. The one where he is yapping with Harrington. He had like 20 something points in that and put one of the greatest displays of swag the league has ever seen.

Pierce in the first half (and AI) of this was pretty sick. Kevin Harlan on the mic
