Can you picture a Michael Jordan highlight against the Pistons. [They showed it a lot over the years.]

MJ drives the middle of lane and goes up with his right...
He is fouled while holding the ball...
Still hanging, MJ switches the ball to his left...
He scores and then goes to the line.

The Bulls wouldn't play the Pistons in the NBA Championship as they are both in the Eastern Conference.

However, the play you refer to did happen in the NBA Finals against the Lakers. And he didn't get fouled.

I believe you are correct and that I kicked another one.
Thanks, PA Coach!
