Video: Maryland's Len Bias vs. North Carolina's Michael Jordan
Posted Dec 28, 2007
As games go, they don’t get much more classic than this. Nearly twenty-four years ago, The Greatest of All Time faced off against the Best to Never Get There in a a match-up that saw the UNC Tar Heels take down the Maryland Terps 74-62 in their own building. Kenny Smith, Sam Perkins and Brad Daugherty were all suited up, but the Pope could have been starting at small forward and this contest still would have been a tale of two talents: Michael Jordan and Len Bias.
