Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, and That Unforgettable Series From 1986


The Era was about to dawn. His time, individually, arrived in this series. It took a superior team -- perhaps the best in league history -- to overcome him. Jordan sent notice in Game 1 against the Celtics, scoring 49 points in a 123-104 defeat. His Game 2 performance would render his brilliant Game 1 a mere footnote. (Boston Globe)
