I’m Back
All MJ had to say to the press when he announced his return to the NBA was “I’m back.” While the Bulls fans were ecstatic, you can imagine the sort of misery that his return meant for the rest of the league. This time, he’d return to the Bulls wearing #45, a callback to his first jersey number in his college years.
In the 1994-95 season, MJ appeared in only 17 of the 82 regular-season games, but he helped his team win 13 of them. They were the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference and wet up against the fourth seed, the Charlotte Bobcats, beating them 3-1. However, they lost in six to the Orlando Magic.
