Ultimate Jordan: 20th Anniversary DVD. What are the 5 complete games?

The new Ultimate Jordan 20th Anniversary DVD being released this Tuesday features 5 complete games that are referred to as "Jordan's best games". Does anyone know which ones are on the disc? I'm just trying to find out what's included on the DVD so please don't turn this thread into a debate about Jordan as a player. Thanks.

This looks like a incredible pickup!!!!
I wish the major sports leagues would pick up on the complete game idea!!!

There are a LOT of NFL games I'd love to see in their completeness!!!

And two of those are on the Chicago Bulls set, released earlier this year (1997 Finals: Game 5 and 1998 Finals: Game 6).

Dammit.

It's a little unclear, but it looks like the Best Buy versions will include a bonus DVD of the 1988 Slam Dunk Contest. Pretty cool. They're selling it for $23.99.

Amazon's got it for $20.99, but they don't list anything about the bonus dunk contest disc.

I'm a sucker for all things Jordan, so I guess I'll be hitting up Best Buy this week. . .

Dammit.

There are the 2 NBA Dynasty Series sets...the L.A. Lakers, and the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls set has 6 complete games, one from each of their NBA Finals appearances...and the Lakers DVD set has either 8 or 9 games on it.

The closest thing you'll probably get to a complete game from the NFL outside of the release of each of the past few Superbowls, is what you find on releases like the complete history of the Oakland Raiders DVD, or Green Bay Packers...they've got sets for the Giants, Cowboys, Eagles, Raiders, and Packers that I know of...and since I have the Raider set, I can tell you that a majority of the disc is taken up with a 1977 game against the Baltimore Colts...only its not really complete as it is intercut with interviews that were taped later, and shows the beginning of the game, and a lot of the key drives...and big moments...but it runs for a good while. I think the ICeBowl is the game on the Packers DVD.

Matt,

I'm also a little ticked off that two of the games on the Ultimate Jordan DVD were already included on the Bulls Dynasty release. Instead of the '97 and '98 Finals games, I think they should have included the "double nickel" game(55 pts. against the Knicks in March of 1995) and "The Shot"(1989 playoffs game 5 vs. the Cavs). These are 2 classic games that easily could have replaced the duplicate games(assuming people buy
