Jordan didn't expect that once the Finals date was postponed, it would lead to a Game Seven.
After the Bulls and Pacers tied 2-2, back at the Chicago home court for Game Five, the Bulls didn't give the Pacers a chance to seize the match point.
Pippen, who made a fatal mistake in Game Four, redeemed himself at the United Center, scoring 20 points, grabbing 8 rebounds, and making 7 assists for the entire game.
The Bulls won a major victory over the Pacers at home, giving them a chance to finish the series in Indiana and enter the Finals for the sixth time, meeting the Trail Blazers for the third time.
