The class of Jordan even with microphones all in his face. Normal people could not tolerate being Michael Jordan it’s an impossible task for an ordinary person.
Naw leave it where it was cause that’s the greatest era of basketball and this watered down league now will just ruin it by trying to add a mumble rapper to the song
😭😭😭 its just beautiful to know that I witnessed his career wearing my team Jersey. The real and only GOAT has a name and is Michael Jordan MJ23 thanks for all the memories MJ we love you.
Happy to have sat center court 10 rows back in February of '98 to watch them vs. the Pistons on a Sunday NBC game. Arena and introductions were magical.
@@cut1986 no doubt man, I when to see him Vs Orlando Magics in his last game versus that team and the last time he touched the ball it was all 📷📷📷flashing in the arena.
@@monolithgeometry3221 so true, only an idiot can appreciate a sport that has been gutted of all the things that made it a competitive tough sport, they tried to artificially inseminate a Jordan like player for all teams, and what they ended up with was a joke of a league, that is more akin to entertainment wrestling than real wrestling. Sure it still requires great physical prowess and skill, but the challenge has been watered down, it's like using cordial instead of 100% squeezed orange juice, it's just artificial and not authentic anymore.
@@monolithgeometry3221 Yeah. They ruined the NBA when they got rid of the defense and allowed people to basically score at will. I'm usually not someone that looks back and says ''back then it was better'' but the NBA truly was at its best in the 90s. They had the physicality of the 80's notched up, with the athletic abilities of the 00's. They had the fundamentals, the defense, the post, the 3. Why else do you think the big men have been erased ? The rules killed the big men. Can you imagine Jordan in todays era without handchecking and hogging the paint ? And some of them have the nerve to say LBJ or Curry is better. SMDH at these young nephews.
He retired because the league forced him to, he had a gambling problem. He had other issuies that the league did a great job covering up for him at a time there were no social media.
@@kashkashluben355 B.S. He retired because his Dad was murdered. Mentally he needed a break. His dad favorite sport was baseball, that's why he switched to baseball.
This right here is ANOTHER huge difference with the man who once called himself "best player of the world" with his so called "the decision". MJ23 aka the GOAT is sooo humble in his communication. Yeah there was no social media back then, but the man has always been so humble. Respect MJ23, the best who ever played this sport.
The media and certainly 1 player himself can not change what we saw, what we experienced. We decide who the goat is. He is not the goat because he was the greatest basketball player we ever saw, which he was by far. He is the goat because he is the greatest athlete we ever saw. We all knew it in 93, him coming back just cemented it over and over again. We will never see anything like that again!
@@JoeSmith-iv3sf Uhh?? He is the Goat Because he's the greatest of all time.. just fucking say He not just the Goat of Baskball he's the Best thing thaat happen n sports nothing less....
My stepfather has never liked any type of sports, the only time he would actually sit down, watch and enjoy an sport event were during MJ playing days.
me too, watching basketball without Jordan is unbearable, he was as close to perfection on the court, the affect he had on everyone is unlike anything else ever
@@jamooree gee Your GRANDMOTHER OR A NUN WOULD WATCH MICHEAL JORDAN DATS HOW CAPTIVATING HE WAS AS AN ATHLETE HE HAD AURA D SWAG D SUITS HE WAS COOL U HAD TO WATCH
Not only was he the best but those days in the NBA were the most entertaining,no gum shields,no falling around at the slightest touch,no shooting from the parking lot,just an incredible amount of talent from multiple players who could take it to the paint.Miss those days
Media talking about players returning from coronavirus gonna need to get back in shape. MJ was out 21 months and came back dropping double nickels and 3 straight chips after the Magic loss. Goat shit
The world was different then. Jordan's era was an era of greatness. Man he was great all the nba players admired and looked up to him. They didnt even wanna get him angry while playing him.
I remember seeing MJ play on TV. When he first retired at the peak of his career everyone was shocked. Then he returned.... and proceeded to wipe out everyone in his way because he was the GOAT. He was what elevated every player around him and made them up their game. He is And always will be the GREATEST OF ALL TIME
It's funny the things he said in that press conference about acting professional, not entitled, doing it for the fans, etc. 25 years later I don't know how people could take the NBA and sports in general that seriously. Guys like Michael, Isiah, Magic, Bird, Julius Erving felt they had an obligation to the fans. Not only do alot of players not care about the fans, but even worse the soft ass media nowadays acts like greed is good and shows the people that pay good money even less respect
It is not even close to the same anymore. Never missed games in the 80s and 90s and now only watch the playoffs hoping certain players will lose because of their entitled ways.
19:21 MJ wearing his shorts backwards. this takes me back in time, seeing this again stirs up my emotions. just remembering pure joy upon seeing the words "I'm Back."
I equate MJ with Bruce Lee. Extraordinary. Their style is at a different level and sports figures like these comes very rare. We should colon MJ and see if we can keep him on the courts to brings back live excitement forever.
You know what I never noticed is BJ Armstrong's confidence on that Paxson game winner. He sees him catch the ball wide open and he lays down and starts cheering. He knows it's cash. He couldn't believe he left him open he knew it was over hahaha.
Amazing athletes like Ali, Magic, Dr J, Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Bird, Montana, Rapinoe, Mia ham, Serena Williams, Messi, CR7, Pele, Tiger, Kobe, Bron, Mayweather, Jeter, Bonds, Mariano Rivera, Sosa, Hank, DiMaggio, etc .... ............ then there is MJ all alone. Crazy how much this man means to the world from a sports perspective. Simply a legend
hushg2000 so you tryna tell me that the only man to win the World Cup 3 times is alone from MJ also Mohammad Ali I don’t know much but he can’t be out the discussion
i love MJ but come on. ALI is ALI. He is above MJ. BTW im from Philippines and basketball is the no. 1 sport in our country but u cant compare Ali to Jordan
@@cut1986 Wrooong Jordan never lost a Championship like Muhammed ali have YES he's the greatest but not athlete Jordan woulda won more than six probably 20 or 16 but thaat's not just thaat people already saying Wilt chamberlain or LeBron James is the GOAT...just like thay saying Michael jordan is not the greatest of What he does Wee all know he is & more popular You just can't pick somebody over Jordan in sports Period...
His my idol since i was a young..,the most i admire MJ..was his wisdom and strength really great.,he always know whats his desire ,what his goal. .a man of great wisdom .i miss MJ..
I wonder why people even compare LBJ to MJJ. Like come on! Dude was even singlehandedly deciding the course of the American stock market 😂🤣😁. He's a cultural phenomenon, not a statpadder
i started watching MJ in the 80's and never stopped watching until today.....and i will watch MJ until i DIE! LeClown is not even in the same stratosphere
I don't understand how anyone can say lebron is better its utterly ridiculous. I don't argue with them anymore it seriously makes me mad enough to fight
Wow 😊 It's just so inspiring! I had the privilege to watch MJ playing since 1991 and I always tried to watch every single game, because it's just so inspiring! Wow 😊
Damn it boroughs me chills when he was being interviewed after the game! It was like I was watching this yesterday. I was 2 months away from graduating from High School!
I remember this day, could not believe it even as I watched this press conference live like WHAT! RETIRING??? Then the comeback & 3 more consecutive Larry's holy cow man, LEGENDARY! I don't care what ANYONE says, JORDAN=G.O.A.T. for me as far as the NBA & one of the greatest American Athletes of all time...
Jordans TOWERING Legacy is cemented in History and he is all ALONE at the Top of the mountain as the GOAT...No player in history or playing now will ever Touch him...Maybe 1 day in the Future a player will come along to threaten his Legacy...Doubt it though...Jordan had and has that once in a lifetime "IT" factor
NO DISRESPECT BUT IN 100 YEARS TIME HE WON'T GET THE SAME SATISFACTION OR PRAISE BECAUSE OTHERS WILL THREATEN HIS LEGACY. NO ONE IS UNTOUCHABLE FOREVER. SOMEONE CAN GO -0 IN THE FINALS AND WIN MULTIPLE DPOY, REGULAR SEASON AND FINALS MVPs.
The King Arthur and Excalibur was a tremendous reference 19:50 and so true. These players did then and today still do not understand the commitment required to be great.
I remember watching the bulls in the 90s. One thing people forget is how good Dominique Wilkins was. He was a true challenge for MJ, but he gets very little credit.
@@nickwilsonxc Weak argument. He retired. Meaning he wasnt under a contract, he wasnt getting paid, and the fans knew he wasnt playing. Nobody felt they were cheated by him. He was physically banged up by the bad boy pistons and mentally stressed with the tragic death of his father. Every fan in Chicago didnt hate him when he 1st left bec. he led their team win 3 STRAIGHT championships. And were extremely satisfied after giving them another 3 STRAIGHT championships before his 2nd retirement.
I was working as dietary aide and I was pissed cause Chicago wss playing Indiana, mj first game back. The cook was upset with me that day!!! I kept running to lounge to see game.
Mj, the ultimate professional. Made fans and people in general, to see athletes, along with Ali of course, etc to put more respect to professional sports and their roles in society and culture.
back then the only time some arenas got a full house, was when MJ came to town , he had a statue erected outside the united center, WHILE HE WAS STILL PLAYING , they should retire his other jersey too , (# 45 )
Lebron can retire and I wouldn't care, As a child having Jordan retire and come back was just like watching your Favorite Super Hero coming back for vengeance lol. 18 min mark MJ wore his shorts backwards 😂
Actually MJ's shorts weren't backwards. The NBA logo was mistakenly stitched on the back instead of the front of MJ's shorts . I remember thinking his shorts were backwards too when first watching the game live on TV in March 1995.
Good one. I remember rooting for the lakers then he beat em so next year I just wanted the bulls to lose but they beat the blazers then the suns! I disliked mike. Then his pops was killed and he retired so I felt bad for him. And appreciated his greatness I was he is the greatest. Then I remember hearing news he is coming back I was a fan and loved it.
2024 Happy Anniversary of Im Back phenom Thank you for coming back, MJ! Cable was only our way of watching him in 1996 here in the Philippines. The best of my childhood! ❤
Michael would be the dude in this era that wouldn’t even have an Instagram or Twitter. Or if he did he would have someone on his staff run it. He’s about that action, unlike this era of athletes.
From around 20:00 minutes mark….a lot of new players should take note of what MJ said on that interview….What a class act….that’s why he’s the GOAT to me.
I miss marv albert he was the best commentator and i love the way he used too say oh a espectacular move by Michael Jordan and the other was oh what a move by Jordan
Am I the only one who still gets goosebumps when I hear the NBA on NBC theme song? Aww the memories.
Classic, every single time. I'd really like them to bring it back.
Lakeima Roberts I wish they’d go back to games on NBC instead of ABC.
Yup a lots of memory and more if the bulls where playing against the Knicks in the play off
So many Bull games, so many memories!
Every single time a game came on NBC; I was right in front of the tv
This makes me miss my childhood and the 90s. MJ is the Greatest basketball player that everyone ever witness..
"THE MAN"
"THE MYTH"
"THE LEGEND "
"THE ICON"
Growing up, I hated every team the Bulls played against. I use to work at the casinos in Indiana, and MJ used to come there often and I was in awe every time. People would just start clapping and I remember a lady in tears just because she got a glimpse of him walking past. He's not God but he was a freak of nature on the court.
@Joe Mack - You forgot to include DA GOAT, when describing MJ. Just saying.
Y2kSd4 you can’t be degenerate if you still have money to put in the game.
Y2kSd4 his dad got killed by complete accident. You really think MJ didn’t have money? I mean come on MJ was the highest paid athlete though endorsement EVER.
Y2kSd4 so It’s now his dad’s gambling bills? His dad didn’t gamble 🤦♂️. If you’re going to spread your conspiracies at least get it right.
@Y2kSd4,what are you talking about? His dad was robbed and killed
There will never be another player as impactful as Jordan
Facts!
Bron
Kobe
@@sportsvideos8785 yeah. He singlehandedly made this generation soft and ring chase.
Rose?
I’m convinced he would’ve won 7 or 8 titles if he didn’t retire in 93
Definitely!!!
7 easy, 8 would have been tough
Toni Kukoc, "My dreams are breaking apart" after he learned his introduction to the media would also include MJ's retirement speech
I read that Toni actually cried when he heard the news that Jordan was retiring.
MJ GREATEST OF ALL TIME 💯🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
All the more pumped for "the last dance"
Haha word!
UNDENIABLY, THE GOAT...
Yea, Wilt is
Sorry fellows it's still air Jordan
TL2354 Wilts 22ppg career playoff average and 18ppg career finals average says otherwise
Kareem.
@Victoria Keane so where is Scottie?
14:17 the intro of the NBC commentator gives me goosebumps ..... there's something epic in 90's basketball
Hadn't been the same since
MJ had a feeling for basketball that no one will ever have.
no truer words ❤
Kobe came close!!!
The class of Jordan even with microphones all in his face. Normal people could not tolerate being Michael Jordan it’s an impossible task for an ordinary person.
Damn I miss the opening theme music when the NBA was on NBC
Yo that's a fact they need to. Bring that back asap
Naw leave it where it was cause that’s the greatest era of basketball and this watered down league now will just ruin it by trying to add a mumble rapper to the song

That is why he is the greatest.. he retired at his prime bec of his choice, his lack of challenge.. then came back stronger than ever..
He didn’t come back to Toronto raptors neither Vancouver

@@jsn23nc I think there was more to the initial retirement than we'll ever know, but thats what made the return so much more special!

Mj, the ultimate professional. Made fans and people in general, to see athletes, along with Ali of course, etc to put more respect to professional sports and their roles in society and culture.
Did you see the smile on pippen when having Michael introduced again. I believe he was his biggest fan.
Amazing video. Thank you for bringing these emotions back to all of us
That was a great spring here in Chicago. The whole city was buzzing
The music in this documentary is on point
back then the only time some arenas got a full house, was when MJ came to town , he had a statue erected outside the united center, WHILE HE WAS STILL PLAYING , they should retire his other jersey too , (# 45 )
Lebron can retire and I wouldn't care, As a child having Jordan retire and come back was just like watching your Favorite Super Hero coming back for vengeance lol. 18 min mark MJ wore his shorts backwards 😂
His aura was not even close to a Jordan or a Kobe
Exactly!
Actually MJ's shorts weren't backwards. The NBA logo was mistakenly stitched on the back instead of the front of MJ's shorts . I remember thinking his shorts were backwards too when first watching the game live on TV in March 1995.
Good one. I remember rooting for the lakers then he beat em so next year I just wanted the bulls to lose but they beat the blazers then the suns! I disliked mike. Then his pops was killed and he retired so I felt bad for him. And appreciated his greatness I was he is the greatest. Then I remember hearing news he is coming back I was a fan and loved it.
Cool Man 19 :20 Mike with his Shorts on Backwards.
Ados Korkados lol
2024
Happy Anniversary of Im Back phenom
Thank you for coming back, MJ! Cable was only our way of watching him in 1996 here in the Philippines. The best of my childhood! ❤
Michael would be the dude in this era that wouldn’t even have an Instagram or Twitter. Or if he did he would have someone on his staff run it. He’s about that action, unlike this era of athletes.
Damn Jordan effect was a real thing 💯🐐
Thank GOD Baseball strike happened !!
When MJ came back, it gave nba players a target to aim at. But they all fell short to hit the bullseye...
Being ICON is few levels above being GOAT...
From around 20:00 minutes mark….a lot of new players should take note of what MJ said on that interview….What a class act….that’s why he’s the GOAT to me.
I miss marv albert he was the best commentator and i love the way he used too say oh a espectacular move by Michael Jordan and the other was oh what a move by Jordan
Who's here in the middle of the week waiting for the next 2 episodes of Last Dance? 😂
