There should be no excuse for a guy who is 6'9', 250 lb to have the track record of some awful flops that Bron Bron has.

Per Chicago Scanner and Spot News on Twitter....
Yesterday a guy walked in to Northwestern hospital with two bullet wounds to his shoulder.
He was shot TWO DAYS earlier.
Meanwhile, 6 feet 9 inch tall 250 pound LePuss rolled around on the court in agony after being out muscled by 6 feet tall 180 pound CP3.
Ok, maybe he landed on his shoulder but clearly he was ok enough to continue playing.

Flu, food poisoning, or hung over any of those three are still quite an accomplishment to play at the level MJ did that day.

I think it was very VERY much embellished but he was under the weather for sure.

I think the gambling theory makes the most sense.

Unless you are Michael Jordan or the Bulls doctor/s, how do you know what he really had - or didn't have?
Anyone with a pulse who watched the game could see something wasn't right with him.
If it was nothing and just an acting job, then he deserved an Emmy.

He wasn't sick.
He faked it.

Look at the fan bois getting defensive!
Gotta love it.
As someone who watched at least 500 games (probably close to 200 in person) that Jordan played, I think I have a pretty good reading that he legitimately didn't look well in Game 5 of the 1997 Finals.
If that's being "defensive", so be it. Guilty as charged.

Fantastic!
The 1997 Emmy for best actor in a staring role in a drama goes to Michael Jeffrey Jordan.
Yet another well deserved accolade for the man.
All kidding/seriousness aside, I have no problem saying I felt MJ was an actor on the basketball court. Plenty of times he was overly dramatic. Still feel LeBron is a bigger actor and bigger puss boy.
Doesn't mean I don't think LeBron is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) basketball player/s of all time.

I saw a youtube video with reliable anonymous inside sources that say it was an elaborate point shaving scheme to pay off gambling debts.
