1992 NBA Playoffs. Cleveland are up 3-2 coming into Game 6 at Boston. Elimination game. Nobody knew it then.. not even Bird himself, that a few months later he would be retired and this would be his last NBA game on the parquet.
Since Jordan and company left in '98, the truly great moments for a Chicago Bulls fan have been few and far between. Although we lost this epic, best of "8" series, it was perhaps the most exciting moment as a Bulls fan since Jordan posed near the free throw line, "goose neck" and all, at the raucous Delta Center. To us, this moment is simply remembered as "The Dunk". To Joakim, it's the moment he earned himself the respect and admiration of Bulls fans around the world. Thank you, Mr. Noah. May we have many more moments like this for years to come.

NBA Bulls vs Celtics Game 6 2009 NBA Playoffs 1/6 (HQ)
BOSTON (AP)—After a record-setting seven overtimes in the first six games, the Celtics made an early night of it with a dominating stretch in the second. Thats second quarter, not second OT. Ray Allen followed his 51-point Game 6 performance with 23 on Saturday night, Paul Pierce added 20 and Boston pulled away from Chicago just before the half to finish the Bulls off 109-99—a rare regulation victory in what might have been be the best first-round playoff series in NBA history. The Celtics will play Orlando in the Eastern Conference semifinals starting Monday. The seventh-seeded Bulls return to Chicago knowing they took the defending NBA champions to the limit—and quite often beyond. Ben Gordon scored 33 for Chicago and Kirk Hinrich scored 14 of his 16 in the fourth quarter to help Chicago cut it to three points—thanks in part to a bizarre scoring change that added a point to the Bulls score two quarters after a first-half 3-pointer was mistakenly ruled a 2. But Boston made all 11 of its free throws in the last 2 minutes to hold on and keep its drive for an 18th NBA title alive. Kendrick Perkins had 13 rebounds, Rajon Rondo had 11 assists and Eddie House scored 16 points—going 5-for-5 from the floor, including four 3-pointers. After three consecutive overtime games, the series went from Odyssey to oddity when an unusual scoring correction helped the Bulls cut the deficit to three points in the fourth quarter. With 5:44 left in regulation, the public address announcer said ...
one of the best playoff games ive watched in a while. The Bulls had a control most of the game. They were at one point able to build a 12 point lead early in the 4th. But the celtics went on a big run to take a 9 point lead with around 3 minutes left. Brad Miller helped rally the Bulls back into the game with a clutch 3 pointer and a layup and the game went into overtime and soon after yet another overtime. In the 2nd overtime, the bulls lead 118-115 with a less than a minute left but Ray ...
