Before Michael Jordan got to enjoy his first ring, he had to go through teams like the Bad Boys, Detroit Pistons. Every time they played it was a statement game for both teams.

24 years ago today on Easter Sunday 1988, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls played a classic game vs the Detroit Pistons, which some say it was the most important game of the “Jordan Era”. While rocking the Air Jordan III, MJ put up 59 points on a incredible 21-27 shooting, putting Chuck Daily’s words in his mouth after he said, “MJ would never beat the Pistons again” (before the game). Check out the vintage video below and let us know what is your favorite memory of MJ’s younger days?
