Michael Jordan to Muggsy Bogues “Shoot it you midget“

With the Chicago Bulls up 2-1 and on the verge of advancing to the second round, the Charlotte Hornets had a chance late to take the lead. On the biggest possession of the game, Mugsy had the ball with the Hornets down 1. Jordan backed off of him and told him: “shoot it you f*cking midget.” Mugsy shot it, didn’t come close. A year later Mugsy actually told Johnny Bach that he believes that single play ruined his career. His shot never recovered.
