You've seen the shot a millions times. But the setup to Michael Jordan's heroics in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals make the moment that much more beautiful. Staring down his imminent retirement, the 35-year-old Jordan put his team on his back after Scottie Pippen left the game with an injury. Trading blows with the pesky Utah Jazz, led by Karl Malone, MJ had the ball in his hands with a chance win one last NBA title, a climax to his illustrious basketball career.
