NBA 2K14 Retro Series: ’86 Bulls vs ’86 Celtics
Last time in the NBA 2K14 Retro Series, I played a matchup between the ’93 Bulls and ’93 Hornets. I’m sticking with my favourite team and player for this latest instalment, this time flashing back to 1986 with a showdown between a young Michael Jordan and Larry Bird’s Celtics.
This matchup is of course the one that produced MJ’s 63-point game in the first round of the 1986 Playoffs, a record that still stands today. The Bulls were nevertheless outmatched by the eventual champions, being swept in the series. Even though the aim of the NBA 2K14 Retro Series is to portray actual historical matchups, I will take liberties here and there, especially as I’m always aiming to win the games. Something that is definitely true to life here is MJ racking up buckets with an array of aerial moves and midrange jumpers, and you’ll certainly see that in this highlight reel. The game came down to the wire, much as his 63-point game did. Will history be re-written here? Watch to find out!
As always, a reminder that Dee and I are regularly uploading highlight reels and other video features to the NLSC’s YouTube channel, so be sure to subscribe for more basketball gaming content!
