1990–91 Chicago Bulls season, NBA Finals, Game 5
The Lakers were facing elimination, and the lack of Worthy and Scott was not any help to the Lakers. This would not stop Magic Johnson as Johnson had 20 assists in the game, but it was not enough. Elden Campbell outscored Michael Jordan with 13 points in the first half, but it was not enough. The Lakers still fought and even led 93-90 in the fourth quarter, but a Bulls 9-0 run, and Paxson's 10 points in the final half of the fourth quarter helped secure the Chicago Bulls', and Michael Jordan's first NBA title.


1990–91 Cleveland Cavaliers season
The 1990–91 NBA season was the 21st season of the National Basketball Association in Cleveland, Ohio. A year after overcoming injuries to make the playoffs, the Cavaliers were utterly destroyed by injuries again as Hot Rod Williams, who played in just 43 games missed half the season due to a severely sprained foot, and Mark Price missed 66 games due to a torn ACL in his left knee. The Cavaliers played around .500 early into the season, but as they stood at a 10–8 start, they struggled and lost 16 of their next 17 games, including an 11-game losing streak. Despite winning eight out of eleven games in April, the Cavaliers were unable to make the playoffs finishing 6th in the Central Division with a disappointing 33–49 record. Brad Daugherty led the team in points and rebounds, and was selected for the 1991 NBA All-Star Game.

1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season
The 1990–91 season was Coventry City's 24th consecutive campaign in the Football League First Division, following their promotion from the Second Division in 1967. The club started the season with John Sillett in charge, three years after he and George Curtis had managed the club to victory in the 1986–87 FA Cup. Sillett left the club in November after a run of poor results, and was replaced by Terry Butcher who arrived as a player-manager from Rangers.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season
Coventry's league form in the season was a contrast between a solid home record and poor away form, as they recorded only one win away from Highfield Road. In the FA Cup they suffered a defeat to Southampton in the fourth round, but the highlight of the season was their run in the League Cup. They beat holders Nottingham Forest 5–4 in the fourth round, before losing to Sheffield Wednesday in the quarter-final.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Background
The 1990–91 season was Coventry City's 24th consecutive campaign in the Football League First Division, following their promotion from the Second Division in 1967. The club had achieved its first major trophy a few seasons earlier, with victory in the 1986–87 FA Cup Final under the joint management of George Curtis and John Sillett, and Sillett remained manager at the beginning of 1990–91. Their league form in the seasons following the cup win was solid with tenth, seventh, and twelfth-place finishes, although the 1989–90 season finished disappointingly as they won just one of their final nine games.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Background
They failed to defend the FA Cup in 1987–88, exiting in the fourth round, and they suffered one of the biggest upsets in FA Cup history in 1989–90, as they lost 2–1 to non-league Sutton United in the third round. They suffered another embarrassing FA Cup defeat the following season, this time to Third Division Northampton, but fared better in the League Cup, reaching the semi-final with a 5–0 win over Sunderland before losing to eventual winners Nottingham Forest in the semi-final.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Background
Sillett did not buy or sell very heavily in the summer of 1990, before the start of the season. Supporters were calling for a strong midfield player to be bought to bolster the team, but defender Andy Pearce was the only major signing, bought from Halesowen Town for £15,000. Greg Downs, who had been part of the Cup winning squad, moved to Birmingham City on a free transfer. Despite this lack of transfer activity and the poor finish to the previous season, Sillett was optimistic that the club could challenge for a top six finish or even the league title.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
The season started poorly, with a win against a struggling Everton side the only highlight of the opening games. Under pressure to change something, and with regulars Dean Emerson and Lloyd McGrath injured, Sillett signed players from Europe to add depth to the team. Winger Zoltán Csucsánszky came from Hungary for a trial, but sustained an injury in his first game, a friendly. Uruguayan José Perdomo had more success, arriving on loan from Genoa and impressing Sillett in six games for Coventry. The club were unable to sign him permanently, however.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
Results did not improve significantly as the autumn progressed, and morale was poor. Star striker David Speedie was dropped from the team after a run of poor performances, and by November the club were in sixteenth position. In November, the club announced that Sillett was leaving his post as manager. Historians do not know if he resigned or was sacked, although he was not working due to sickness at the time and had been planning to leave at the end of the season anyway. The club appointed Terry Butcher as Sillett's replacement.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
Butcher was still an active player for Rangers at the time, and had been captain of the England team during their World Cup semi-final against West Germany in the summer, so he arrived as player–manager and the club had to pay a transfer fee of up to £450,000 for him. His first game, at home to Liverpool, ended in a defeat.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
Despite success in the League Cup, Butcher had to wait more than a month before the club won a league game under his management and supporters feared that the club would be dragged into a relegation battle. Butcher bought Ray Woods from Wigan Athletic, but was forced to sell the promising young players Steve Livingstone and Tony Dobson, who both left for Blackburn Rovers. Speedie was also sold, moving to Liverpool for £675,000, following a series of sub-par performances and a poor relationship with Butcher.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
Butcher then signed Kenny Sansom and Stewart Robson, and the club began to record some better results, recording home wins against Aston Villa, Manchester City and Chelsea, amongst others. By mid-April, with three games remaining, Coventry had moved up to ninth place in the table, but two defeats from their last three games, including a 6–1 defeat at champions Arsenal in the final game, saw them finish in sixteenth.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League First Division
The league season had been a contrast between excellent form at Highfield Road, where the side won ten of nineteen games and were unbeaten after the November defeat to Liverpool, and a poor away record with just one win, at Sheffield United early in the season. The player of the year was Kevin Gallacher, who scored eleven league goals. As a player, Terry Butcher had only started seven games, six in the league, as a result of injury. Cyrille Regis played well throughout the season, but did not score heavily and was released by Coventry at the end of the season, moving to rivals Aston Villa F.C.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, FA Cup
Following defeats to lower-division and non-league opposition in the previous two seasons, Coventry faced the possibility of another upset in the third round against Wigan Athletic. Wigan had some future top-flight players in their team including Peter Atherton, who later signed for Coventry, but were having a poor season, being in seventeenth place in Division Three. The first match, played at Highfield Road on 5 January 1991, ended in a 1–1 draw as Micky Gynn's opener in the 66th minute was cancelled out by a last minute equaliser by Wigan's Darren Patterson. The replay at Springfield Park was four days later and was won 1–0 by Coventry courtesy of another Gynn goal.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, FA Cup
In the fourth round in late January, a few days after their defeat in the League Cup quarter final, City again drew 1–1 at home against Southampton with Alan Shearer equalising after Brian Kilcline's opener. In the replay at The Dell City had eight players out through injury, and lost Steve Ogrizovic after 24 minutes. Southampton went on to win 2–0.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League Cup
After reaching the semi-final in the 1989–90 season, Coventry again performed well in the 1990–91 Football League Cup, also known as the Rumbelow's Cup. The campaign began in September with a two-legged second-round tie against Bolton Wanderers, in which City won both their home and away games by scores of 4–2 and 3–2 respectively. In the third round, on 31 October, they played at home to Hull City. The visitors dominated the first half but were unable to score, and then suffered the set-back of losing former Coventry player Dave Bamber. Coventry improved after half-time, and won the game 3–0 with goals from Speedie, Livingstone and Regis.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League Cup
In the fourth round on 28 November, Coventry faced Nottingham Forest, in Butcher's third match as manager. Forest had won the tournament in both of the previous two seasons, beating City on each occasion, and started the match as favourites. After 35 minutes, Coventry had moved into a 4–0 lead with Gallacher claiming a hat-trick and Steve Livingstone also scoring. Forest responded, however, and Nigel Clough, son of manager Brian Clough, stunned Highfield Road with a hat-trick of his own, scored in just seven minutes and leaving the score 4–3 at half time. Forest levelled the match through a Garry Parker goal after half-time, but Livingstone's goal with half an hour remaining won the game for Coventry by a 5–4 scoreline.


1990–91 Coventry City F.C. season, Season summary, Football League Cup
City had to wait almost two months for their next match in the competition, the quarter-final tie at home to Sheffield Wednesday of the Second Division. Coventry created few chances in the game, with player-manager Terry Butcher sustaining an injury as well, and Nigel Pearson's 9th-minute goal was enough to win the tie for Sheffield Wednesday.
