Jordan heads- #12

[EDouble]

Y'all know the story with the when he had to wear a 12 jersey because of the team's jerseys bein stolen? well reportedly it was against the Magic of course in a game and think its been said it was while visiting them.
well, wherever you go, theres different stories on what season it was, where it was, how many points he scored, whether or not the Bulls won...etc etc. Anybody know that shit for sure? internet's a bullshitter.

edit- oh here's a picture

Here you go cutie pie. Google is my lover.

Jordan wore four jersey numbers in his career: his customary #23, #45 after his return from his first retirement, #9 in the 1984 and 1992 Olympics, and #12, an "emergency uniform" worn during a game against the Orlando Magic during the 1990-1991 season after his uniforms were stolen from the visitors' locker room. Wearing a jersey with no last name, Jordan scored a game-high 49 points in a victory over the Magic.

^yep..-the bulls played in orlando once that season, on january 16th. and the bulls won. And MJ did have in fact the game high in points, but it was only 29.

oddly enough, the other time they played the magic that season, in chicago on april 2nd,..the bulls won, and jordan had the game high total of 44 points.

----On another website, sell.com, (where i got that pic above..), it claims:

With his No. 23 jersey reportedly stolen before the Chicago Bulls' game at Orlando on Feb. 14, 1990, Michael Jordan was unfazed. With many fans surely expecting to see that signature number on the court, M.J. came out wearing No. 12 against the Magic and scored a game-high 26 points.

so i looked it up. that game jordan had a game high of 49 points, in a loss. the point totals of the two teams also on point from that game.

It might be likely that that was indeed the game (valentines day) but the points bein incorrect in every instance has got me feelin shallow (where the hell does the 26 come from.)

edit: and its tough to point, bein that they plaeyd each other 7 times between them two seasons. But hell its gotta be put into somethin official at some point or on the DAMN PIECES THEMSELVES

edit- okay the 26 came from game @ orlando in yet another season. march 14 '92, bulls beat magic 112-96 and mike had game high 26.

(they just pickin fuckin random numbers?!)

So now thats about 2 or 3 games of information clashed over 3 seasons.
