Seeing as there was exactly nothing else remotely worth watching on television last night, I decided to actually do some wash and tune in to CSN's replay of the Sixers hosting the Bulls in 1987 at the Spectrum, where Michael Jordan had 49 points (19-35), 5 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks but couldn't push Chicago past Philadelphia because Charles Barkley had an even better game than Jordan, with 40 points (12-17), 21 rebounds and 5 assists.
Interesting note, former Sixer all-star and current Sixers coach Doug Collins was still employed by the Bulls as Michael Jordan's first NBA head coach. He was just 35 at the time, the youngest coach in the NBA.
