thanks for the highlights, MJ and Spurs. plus, Governor Ann Richards waiving the rowdy rag!

This is from one of the best games ever of my young Spurs fanhood. Just what I wanted to see back then. Incredible games from MJ, the greatest, and a Spurs win. Too bad the Spurs could never make it past their Western Conference competition to make it to the finals back then. They were always ultra competetive with MJ's Bulls.

This game is just packed with highlights for both teams - a steal and dunk right past MJ for David Robinson, and a spinning, reverse alley-oop dunk by same. We see MJ throwing a couple down on David, and getting blocked on a couple by David as well. A couple of sweet dunks,including a great follow jam by my all-time favorite sidekick, Sean Elliott. There are a couple great plays by the original Big Dog, Antoine Carr, and then SCOTTIE PIPPEN almost jumping right over the Big Dog for a Vince Carter-like dunk in the first half. Why this game isn't available on NBA.com digitally remastered, I don't know. Maybe because it's a meaningless regular season game from 1992. Ah, well.



and here's the second half.
