| North Carolina at Maryland, 1984 (Jordan - Len Bias) |
 |
January 12, 1984
This was a vintage N. Carolina - Maryland matchup
featuring players like Jordan, Len Bias, Sam
Perkins, Kenny Smith, Brad Daugherty and more.
Bias had a great first half scoring 16 points.
Finished with 24pts and 4rbs. (24pts was his
career-high at that time). Perkins was with
26/12.
Jordan scored 21 and he was a monster on the
boards with 12 rbds (7 off). He also had 2 blocks
and at least 4 steals that I put in the video but
could be even more.
He came up with all the big points, rebounds and
the steal at the end of the game. And of course,
he has his famous dunk at the buzzer. There were
also 2-3 questionable calls on Jordan plays which
I also included.

========================
Two 'Madmen' in Blue Put Md. in Depression By John
Feinstein, Washington Post Staff Writer
13 January 1984
The game was over, Michael Jordan and Sam Perkins
had seen to that. But Jordan wasn't quite
finished. The ball was loose at center court, then
he had it with no one blocking his path to the
basket. In about two strides he was past the foul
line, his 6-foot-6 body uncoiling, the ball
seemingly at his knees as he rose above the rim
once again.
North Carolina's reserves were on their feet in
anticipation. "We knew it was coming," Matt
Doherty said.
He was right. Jordan, sailing through the air, the
ball cupped in his hand, twisted his body, brought
the ball from far behind his head and, wham!
slammed it through the hoop as the buzzer sounded.
"I wasn't really showing off," he pleaded a few
minutes later, a guilty grin written all over his
face. "I was just trying to cap off the victory."
But, he admitted, "It was fun."
Most of the game was not that much fun for the
top-ranked Tar Heels. With 14,500 spectators in
Cole Field House roaring, with Len Bias and Adrian
Branch shooting more like demons than turtles,
Carolina had its hands full for 34 minutes.
"Then those two madmen took over," said Maryland's
Mark Fothergill.
"Showtime," added Carolina point guard Kenny
Smith. "It was their show."
The madmen putting on the show were Jordan and
Perkins. One year ago in Cole Field House, the
Terrapins humiliated the Tar Heels, 106-94,
blowing them out on a night when Perkins and
Jordan didn't look all-state, much less
all-America.
Last night, they got even. Perkins did it with 26
points and 12 rebounds, playing with intensity
that surprised even his teammates. Jordan, who is
intense about a card game in the dorm, was
everywhere, with 21 points, 12 rebounds and what
will be remembered here as the dunk.
"I think Sam's heard the people saying stuff like
he's lazy and he's determined to prove how wrong
they are," Jordan said. "He's been doing it all
year."
Doherty agreed. "In the second half, Sam hit a
layup and got fouled and he started jumping up and
down and shaking his fists in the air. I had to
stop for a second and say, 'Is that really Sam
Perkins?' I don't know if he's doing that
consciously or not, but it sure is working."
Perkins has been casual about his new-found
intensity. "I'm just trying to work as hard as I
can," he said. "Tonight, I thought I did a good
job inside, but I want to do more, to dominate in
there as much as I can.
"They blew us out in the second half in here last
year and we know what a good team they have. We
wanted to show them that we're pretty good, too."
They did. While Perkins was constantly controlling
the inside, Jordan seemed to come up with every
loose ball. He had a little trouble controlling
the ball on the fast break a couple of times and
had to come out in the first half to get a sore
knee iced. But when it came down to decision time,
Jordan soared.
"I just felt the momentum building inside me as it
got to the end," he said. "I like that time of the
game."
It was 57-56 when Jordan went to the hoop with
6:06 left and was fouled. He made the first free
throw, missed the second but grabbed the rebound.
He cut to the base line and sank a reverse layup
to make it 60-56. Herman Veal missed for Maryland
and Jordan came around a screen, spun to his left
and hit an 18-footer. It was 62-56 and the
Terrapins never caught up.
"They don't think about taking over at that
point," Doherty said. "They just do."
"How do you stop Jordan?" Bias asked rhetorically.
"I don't know, how about putting four guys on
him?"
"That was just an average Michael Jordan dunk,"
Fothergill said, rolling his eyes. "I've seen him
do more spectacular dunks during summer games. Of
course, average Michael Jordan is better than just
about anything you'll see anywhere."

UNC Beats Maryland; By Michael Wilbon Washington
Post Staff Writer
Those who argue that two great players can't make
a team No. 1 in the nation obviously haven't seen
enough of North Carolina all-Americas Michael
Jordan and Sam Perkins.
Jordan had the presence of three players at times
last night, shooting, stealing and rebounding in
surreal sequences. His 21 points and 12 rebounds,
and Perkins' 26 points and 12 rebounds, enabled
Carolina to remain undefeated with a 74-62 victory
over Maryland in packed Cole Field House.
The Tar Heels, all-Americas or not, held no big
edge until the final minute. The Terrapins, for
the most part, played like a team ranked fifth in
the country. Sophomore forward Len Bias, with a
career-high 24 points, and Adrian Branch, with 19,
at times matched the splendor of Perkins and
Jordan.
But it was Jordan who scored five straight points
to turn a 57-56 lead into a 62-56 margin with five
minutes to play. Jordan made the first of two free
throws, then hustled incredibly to save his miss
on the second shot. After scoring inside for a
60-56 lead, he followed Herman Veal's miss with a
twisting, lean-in jumper for a six-point lead.
After Maryland (10-2, 1-1 in the Atlantic Coast
Conference) had pulled to 63-62 on a bank shot by
Ben Coleman with 2:03 remaining, Perkins made two
free throws for 65-52. Bias missed a jumper,
Jordan rebounded and the game, essentially, was
over.
Maryland held a 43-40 lead with 14 minutes to play
after a jumper by Branch, who took over the game
after intermission. The Terrapins had a chance to
move ahead by five when Coleman made a steal, but
he tried to dribble downcourt and shoot off the
run and missed badly.
Perkins dunked at the other end for 43-42. Another
big sequence came with eight minutes left, when
Branch forced a shot. He missed, and Perkins came
down and scored on a three-point play for a 55-52
lead for the Tar Heels (11-0, 2-0). "I thought I
was going to draw a foul, but I shouldn't have
made the move, anyway," Branch said.
"When we had that (three-point) lead," Maryland
Coach Lefty Driesell said, "we should have slowed
it down and worked for a real good shot. But we
made a couple of hurry-up moves that cost us."
Or as freshman guard Keith Gatlin said more
succinctly, "We did some silly things at a crucial
point in the game."
As well as Perkins and Jordan were rebounding,
every Maryland mistake at either end was
magnified. The Tar Heels outrebounded Maryland by
seven, and scored on nine of 19 offensive
rebounds. Maryland, unofficially, scored on only
two of 12 offensive rebounds.
Even North Carolina Coach Dean Smith was forced to
use a rare superlative. "Perkins and Jordan were
great," Smith said.
It seemed Jordan and Perkins were there for every
important basket and rebound. "They did what the
great players do," Driesell said.
Jeff Adkins, who shared time with Veal and Bias
trying to guard Jordan, had talked Wednesday
afternoon about how Jordan beats teams with second
effort more than anything else.
"You know he's going to the offensive boards,"
Adkins said last night. "You can block out if you
want, and half the time, he still gets the ball."
Jordan and Perkins each got seven offensive
rebounds.
Of the often-unaggressive Perkins, who hasn't
played especially well recently against Maryland,
Branch said, "I've never seen Perkins play as
hard."
Also determining the outcome was UNC's defenses --
man-to-man in the first half, zones in the second
-- that kept the Terrapins shooting from outside.
Center Coleman scored only eight points, and made
just three of 10 shots. "When he gets eight points
and Perkins gets 26, there's a big void," Driesell
said. "I don't know what the problem was, but he
didn't have one of his better games."
Nine of Bias' 11 baskets came from outside, as did
at least half of Branch's eight field goals.
"We're usually an inside team and this is the
first game we've played predominantly from the
outside," Branch said. "It was fine for a while,
but it hurt eventually. When you get into a
jump-shooting pattern with a team that's going
inside, the jump shooters lose nine out of 10
times."
Both teams played fairly well defensively,
especially in the second half when the Tar Heels
shot 49 percent and Maryland 46 percent.
Driesell, despite slapping Smith's hand at the end
of the game instead of shaking it, seemed to have
calmed considerably 15 minutes after Jordan had
thrown down a "rock-the-baby" dunk -- one for the
ages -- to end the contest.
"It was a good, hard-fought game," Driesell said.
"I'm looking forward to playing them again (Feb.
19 in Chapel Hill). If we can get some better play
out of a couple of people and make some
adjustments, we'll be right up there. I don't like
losing to North Carolina any time, especially on
our home court. But we played the No. 1 team
pretty well for 39 minutes."
