(WBBM NEWSRADIO) — As the Utah Jazz celebrates its 50th anniversary, owner Ryan Smith has changed the name of the Wi-Fi network inside the team’s arena to “JordanPushedOff.”
The name, as Bulls fans know, references the game-winning shot that Michael Jordan made in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals to defeat Utah for the second year in a row.
