Ewing, Jordan and Worthy? Like we're witnessing the future of the prime years of the NBA.

Patrick Ewing couldn't imagine the nightmare he was going to have to deal with every night

Senior year at UNC. One of the most stressful games to watch in Carolina history. Remember everyone piling on in front of the TV at the Sigma Nu house when Jordan hit that shot. Then down to Franklin Street. Dad was there in 1957. Daughter in 2009.

Where the LEGEND of Michael Jordan was BORN!!! Shout out to Jordan, Sam Perkins, James Worthy, Patrick Ewing, and Eric" Sleepy" Floyd, who all went on to have long and GREAT careers in the NBA!! R.I.P. Billy Packer. R.I.P. John Thompson, R.I.P. Dean Smith !

Sick of people saying Michael Jordan won the 82 Natl Championship...sure the talented freshman hit the last shot...but the MAN in the house...the MAN who carried that team...not only in the final game....the tournament....the season....was the unstoppable JAMES WORTHY......Worthy was a beast and proved it throughout his career...I will give MJ his props as the NBA GOAT...but i believe Worthy set a burning example for MJ at UNC..One the talented freshman would ride to glory...SO at least lets give the 82 game...and Patrick Ewing says it best....GEORGETOWN HAD NO ANSWER FOR BIG GAME JAMES WORTHY !!
