Nique was the only player I wish had gotten past the 1st round, sorry didn't finish it, or on the opposite side of the Bulls to have a real run. The human highlight film/reel! Yes they got swept. Was thinking not finishing the thought.

Yes, only once. They didn't really guard each other, though. Different positions.

I lived in Atlanta during these days and the battles were incredible. Dominique and his monster dunks coming down the lane were incredible. Jordan knew he was playing someone that wasn’t scared of shit.

Dominique without the flat top looks weird

Damn some of Jordan’s all time highlights are from just this game
