Michael Jordan's former personal trainer, Tim Grover, said it was food poisoning, not the flu, that affected the former Chicago Bulls star during Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals, which has come to be known as "The Flu Game."


It's considered one of the greatest games of Jordan's career and in NBA Finals history, as he scored 38 points to help lead the Bulls to a 90-88 victory against the Jazz in Utah, despite battling a physical ailment that made him visibly weak. The Bulls went on to clinch their fifth title in Game 6.

It was flu/hangover... was seen in every park city bar the night before until super late. My dad is fairly tied into the folks up there.

It was huge. And it's not like he played all that great to me but it just seemed like he had maximum effort and energy.

I would have loved to see him get a breakaway dunk..... I bet we would have seen his highest vertical. Dude was buzzing with energy just never really got to totally unleash it.

He didn't **** anything up which was all we needed from him.

Is it true or urban legend that he was pumping IVs before and during the game and soon afterwards the NBA had to adopt rules about what could and couldn't be pumped into a player before or during games.
 
People are calling my phone. Orlando Magic fan, Cavs fan, but no L.A. Clippers fans are calling. They're all jumping out windows.
 
That finger roll style finish by rudy was awesome. So much improvement with his finesse game but still gets nasty with his dunks and blocks. Such a physical presence to deal with.

And I love that he has the swagger to throw no look passes, through the legs passes, coast to coast finishes. No telling what he might improve at next with all that confidence.

First two free throws of his playoff career were nothing but net.

Undercooked food, spoiled food.

Like still somewhat raw chicken or bad fruit. Possibly mishandled food or poor sanitation at a restaurant.

Also contamination from cleaning products.
