NBA Finals: Ranking the 5 Most Clutch Shots of all time

#2 Michael Jordan - 1998 Finals, Chicago Bulls vs Utah Jazz

Similar to the 1997 Finals, the Chicago Bulls were up 3 games to 2 against the Utah Jazz. The Jazz led 86-85 with possession of the ball and under 30 seconds to go in the game. Stockton fed Karl Malone in the post with 22 seconds to go. As this happened, Michael Jordan came up from the baseline and stole the ball from the unsuspecting Malone.

Now with 20 seconds to go and the shot clock turned off, Jordan dribbled the ball up the court and used some of the clock. Then, with under 10 seconds to go, Jordan drove to his right as Byron Russell stayed with him. He crossed over his back to the left as he gave Russell a little nudge that left him off balance, and Jordan wide open. Jordan rose up and sank the jumper with 5.2 left on the clock, giving the Bulls a 1-point lead.

The Jazz used a timeout and scrambled to get a shot off as Stockton shot a desperation 3 that bounced off the front of the rim as time expired. Winning this series gave both Jordan and the Bulls their 6th championship.
