2 reasons:
Utah in that time played a "double-team zone" meaning that when they double teamed the nearest defender would cover the top of the arch, in this case Stockton. He got late.
Also, MJ's three point shooting has always been underrated by defenders and the media, so Russell felt that Pippen in the post against Hornacek was more of a threat than MJ in the three, which is in theory is true, but MJ proved them wrong (as always...).

Ok let's see. It's the NBA finals, he has the flu, critical game, he scores 38 and the eventual game winner. Hmmm yeah i'd say this guy is pretty good. I remember one time i played with the flu in a pickup game. I was on fire, in a zone. I guess it does heighten your senses. My team still lost though, lol. I felt like Mike that day.

Once you throw, your body releases all of the nutrients/water that you have had. Add that to the fact that Michael was doing that all night PLUS getting no sleep is remarkable. What he did was by SHEER WILL
