All right, let me just remind you, when Jordan made clutch shots, they really, really mattered. They endured, they were historic clutch shots because he first introduced himself as a freshman at North Carolina in the 1982, the college, the NCAA championship game. He makes the walk-off shot, a jump shot, and Dean Smith called his number, not James Worthy's number, not Sam Perkins' number.

He called Michael Jordan's number as a freshman. He was called Mike Jordan at that point. And then, remember, he introduced himself to the NBA world against Craig Elo in Cleveland, game five. This is the closeout game. This is for all the marbles. And he hits a hanging walk-off shot jumper over Craig Elo and it became iconic. We all see it.

You can just call it up on YouTube right now and look at the highlight and look at his celebration. It won the series, okay? His first playoff series. And then obviously I was there on press row, court side, game six at Utah. A little subtle push off Brian Russell against the Jazz, and he hangs and holds the pose just beyond the free throw line and rips it, and it's a walk off.

Stockton got some heave at the buzzer, but it was a walk off. It won the championship. It won game six. It closed them out. All of his shots had magnitude. Jordan, but then I look at LeBron, and all of his walk offs, and I'm giving him that little tip in the other day. It's a little buzzer here. let's call it seven walk-off shots. They didn't matter. They didn't get you anywhere.
