“I think he's God disguised as Michael Jordan. He is the most awesome player in the NBA. Today in Boston Garden, on national TV, in the playoffs, he put on one of the greatest shows of all time. I couldn`t believe anybody could do that against the Boston Celtics.”

Anyways, back to the piece of memorabilia that I would gladly pay a $hit load for, I love how they wrote in the remarks section that MJ's 63 was an all-time playoff high and that he was a write-in for the block shots section with a team-high 2. I'm also sure the guy who filled out this sheet would probably love the digital technology available now, but you just can't beat the authenticity and feel of something tangible that can be touched, framed, passed from hand-to-hand and held up in the glorious rays of the sun while angels sing in the background decades later.
