Blitz Sports Network PSA: Always remember, the individuals who say "Michael Jordan didn't face great competition in his era" are trying to tell you something IMPORTANT. They are trying to tell you that they didn't watch the Michael Jordan era, and there are much better things you could be doing with your time rather than listening to their takes on an era they didn't even watch. Would you go to someone for an opinion on Shakespeare if they had never seen the plays Macbeth, Hamlet, or Othello? Of course you wouldn't. Consider the source. Nobody who watched that era would trash the talent all around the league. Michael Jordan played in a great era with a great blend of fierce competitors, awe inspiring athletes, lock down defenders, knock down shooters, and ultra skilled ballers. - Sport
40 years later and we are still talking about MJ
Good things do give lasting memories!
And my kids will talk about Jordan . He is the best player I ever seen for far in basketball
The NBA just isn’t the same anymore
...and will do so in the future 😉
200 years from now he will still be revered.
Every time I watch highlights of MJ as a rookie I see him make great passes, play great defense, and make outside shots. I don't know where the idea came from that he lacked these skills early in his career. He didn't lack anything. He simply honed what he already had to a finer degree.
7:14 😅 even when he complained he wanted to fly
Yep, and that finer degree made him unstoppable, where as before (his early NBA career, rookie year) he still sort of looked human.
That is the image the media guiged by people who tries to put Lebron in the same level does. MJ was good in everything.
I was an 11yo in Spain and used to look at the stats in basketball magazines. Even though Magic and Bird were the gods i used to think "Surely this guy, with those stats in points, steals, assists, ...must be the best player and one of the best in history..."
I know right. He scored 63 against alltime Celtics. Guess it coulda been 83 if he had better skills in the early years🤦♂️🤣😂
You don’t need to know anything at all about basketball to know Jordan was special. So skilled and talented. Freakishly athletic. His game was like art. He played beautifully.
Exactly. I'll add that Lebron's game is effective but ugly. MJ was so graceful.
Yes true Artistry!!!
Great to hear my Dad get so excited talking about MJ as a Rookie. RIP Johnny Red Kerr
loved your Dad as the Bulls announcer! We miss Johnny Red Kerr!
Did u get a chance to meet MJ?
I loved listening to your dad.
I grew up in Waukegan. I have so many great memories of Michael Jordan that are even better thanks to your dad. I’ll never forget his call for ‘the shot’ in Cleveland!
my favorite broadcaster RIP
MJ hit the NBA running. His rookie season is legendary. He was just too smooth, too quick, over flowing with talent, & hyper driven to win. All in, all the time.
He was the best to ever do it in my honest opinion & I am a die hard Laker fan, but this is all about respect 👊🏾
I didn’t realize his teammates couldn’t keep up to him in those days. You can see he tried hard to use his teammates but they couldn’t finish.
@@marcbrisson3 Exactly, people goes on and on about lebron james being a better passer than MJ but the truth is if MJ had better teammates his assists record would be higher. Plus MJ does not have the ball at all times like Lebron, the only time he have the ball is when he needs to take over the game,.
Of course the NBA wasn't ready for MJ, humanity wasn't ready for MJ, and clearly Converse wasn't ready for MJ......
Yep, he averaged in his rookie season what Kobe averaged in his MVP season
more I watch him, more I realise no one else is close. the greatest player by a long margin.
Exactly and a lot of people know that it's not that close I think the media is setting LeBron up for failure by constantly comparing him to a guy like Jordan it turns people into LeBron haters honestly believe LeBron would get a lot more appreciation and love if it wasn't for the media
@@tombrown8992 totally agree with you ..
@@tombrown8992 labum brought this hate on himself when he said what he said
@@johnmoates7188 yep
Yes.
arguably the best player on both sides of the ball every night.
this game is more exciting than any regular season games in the 20's .. and his passion to win a regular season game tells you his character as a player..
The real GOAT,who could really handle pressure most.
Anybody else catch that when Jordan got his fourth foul the announcer called him Michael Jackson haha
MICHAEL JACKSON BLOCKED IT FROM THE BACK...LMAO!!!!
15:00 😂😂😂
I noticed that 😂😂😂🤣
I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else noticed 😂😂
Same here
Great to see it in context of an actual game, instead of just random highlights. 21 years old. GOAT.
Totally agree.
As a 9 year old, watching MJ play for the first time, my eyes were in love. This is the kind of player, I and many others longes for. A player with swag , flavor, smoothness, and style off the charts.
Yep, he was unique. He was smooth, He had the perfect body for basketball and the talent and ability and fierceness to go along with it. The way he moved was just different. He was lean, but muscular. His moves were graceful, powerful, and pleasing to the eye. It was ballet on a basketball court.
MJ was a great defensive player, Lebron plays defense like he's reaching into a fire, on his toes going backwards running away, MJ was a total package
As a KID (baby goat), he was already showing glimpses of brilliance.
Then he matured as
💥The GOAT!💥
not so much brillance as to DOMININACE~
Listen to how excited these announcers are to be seeing what they’re seeing
you already can see how talented he was in his first season
Some of the veteran players were jealous of MJ because he was getting a lot of exposure and was the new most exciting player EVERYONE wanted to see.But it wasn't just highlight dunks and moves.He played hard on both ends of the court.His defense was actually overlooked, because his offense was so amazing.MJ is the one who actually had to tell the media " Hey I play defense too" .Then he became a fixture on the all defensive team
And long since retired his shadow still overtakes the nba lebron still chasing the legend of Michael jordan instead of leaving his own stamp like kobe Bryant did after jordan passed the torch kobe didn't disappoint jordan.
Imagine being the best player in the NBA as a rookie, and for every game you played for the rest of your career, at least until he was in his 40s with Charlotte. As a guy in his 3rd game as a rookie, it was already clear he was the best player on the floor, dominating at both ends, in a game that featured a HOF who was a 2-time defensive player of the year, against a 60-win team.
JORDAN PLAYING POINT GUARD.....He could play in any ERA and DOMINATE!!
MJ truly was a puppet master. He scared other players, manipulated other players, and could get to any spot he wanted to at any point and anytime in the game. Especially in crunch time. Had to be insanely frustrating as an opponent to try their hardest and not be able to stop him no matter what. Had to be a true feeling of helplessness.
Wow. I didn't know Jordan was such a great passer in his rookie years
THE KNOWLEDGEABLE FANS AND THE PLAYERS THAT PLAYED AGAINST HIM KNOW THIS . THE NARRATIVE IS , BEFORE MJ STARTING TO WIN CHAMPIONSHIPS HE WAS A BALL HOG . THOSE THE ARE THE UNKNOWLEDGEABLE FANS , MJ HATERS AND SELECTIVE MEMORY PEOPLE TALKING . YEA , PEOPLE WOULD SAY MICHAEL DIDN"T START TO PASS THE BALL UNTIL PHIL JACKSON STARTING COAHING THE BULLS . MJ WAS AVERAGING 5 + ASSIST BEFORE PHIL STARTED COACHING . MJ AVERAGED 8 AST. PER GAME IN THE 1988 - 89 SEASON WITH DOUG COLLINS COACHING WITH NO CONSISTENT HELP . MAGIC JOHNSON IS THE BEST PASSER EVER . BUT , MJ IS ON THE 2 TIER WITH WHOEVER ELSE YOU WANT TO PUT THEIR . MICHAEL JORDAN CAN PASS THE AIR OUT OF THE BALL . WHEN DOUG COLLINS PUT MJ AT POINT GUARD. FOR LIKE 20 GAMES IN THE 1988 - 89 SEASON , MJ WAS AVERAGING 11.7 AST. PER GAME . DOUG COLLINS GOT FIRED BECAUSE HE WANTED TO. KEEP MJ AT POINT GUARD . BECAUSE MJ WAS WRECKING SHOP AT POINT GUARD WITH A 29.7 SCORING AVG. 11.7 AST. AND 7 REBS PER GAME .>🎤
Yep just like kobe but when u realize ur teammates are trash u start to take all the shots
wait til you watch him play point guard🙂
MJ’s rookie year was incredible.

@@DD-sw1dd That's dope
Look how hard these guys played back in the day. These kids today cannot begin to understand this kind of passion for the game. All they think about is temporary fortune and fame.. Thank you for sharing this.. Brought me back to my childhood 🤙🏼
If MJ would play today he would destroy them all, effortlessly.
Terry Cummings and MJ used to play on the same pick up team in the offseason in Chicago pro ams…story goes they never lost a game
Along with Mark Aguirre, Doc Rivers, Eddie Johnson, Isaiah Thomas. The Chicago Summer League was ridiculous.
it makes me both laugh and cringe when people want to actually pretend that Lebron James is better than MJ ....it tells you just how horrible the NBA is today and how easy it is to dupe clueless people into believing anything......but, the film and the records don;t lie!!!!!!
Forget MJ, it boggles my mind that people got him ahead of Kobe and Duncan.
Ball dont lie 😎
Lol dude. I attach a story here. The called Lebron LeGOAT.
Now back in the 80,90s he'd only be called Lego. Cause he'd be just a little piece among the rest. Hahahaa. And compare him to MJ...ahh, people are out of their daaaim miinds.
Side note. Lebron would be crying around playing in Nike high dunks and such shoes. Also Ibrahimovic signed the jersey that lebron send him and sent it back 😃😃😃. We all laugh. However MJ never needed or even wanted to send his jersey...we all still wanted it. I am writting from a small town in the middle of Europe. We all wanted a Chicago bulls 23 jersey. Fakes one even. We did not care. We wanted it.. I tell you what, and fake jersey I see of MJ has more worth than any other jersey around.
List is endless....let the LeGOATs call themselves what they want. They need their good time and accomplishment in the sandbox anyways for the new space jam time which I call NO LEGACY!
Michael would be scoring all over the place in current basketball. Probably a averaging 45 a game.
Im not sure what happened with peoples thinking. It was simple known for nearly a decade before Michael even retired that he was the greatest all around player that ever played.
I dont know anyone, even people who werent fans, that would dare have said otherwise. The guy was in a different universe. Lebron is a hugely talented freak of nature. No doubt. But no, just no.
That facts but lebron is great still..other than lebron being a phenomenal player the nba has fell off terrible!
Michael Jordan is the greatest the goat 🐐period and the greatest athlete ever in the history of sports period!!!!!!!!
Yes!!!! 💯💯👍🤞
No one wants to be a condemned goat of satan. The Greatest Ever Is God=Lord Jesus Christ. He was the Only One to overcome the whole world.
@@thespaceram2879 stop the drugs 🤦
there is more intensity in the paint in that game from 38 years ago... than in many games today
Anthony Davis wouldn't make it through a quarter without getting hurt thank God things aren't as intense as back in the day
Back when NBA teams played old school defense and soon after had the Jordan rule (courtesy of Detroit prisons) you wanna see some hard hitting, no blood no foul defense watch some of those bulls games . Teams today are too soft and just try and outscore each other. High scoring games is what sells in the nba today, not defense. Guess I'm too old school .
Mj been a killer from the beginning. 😅👍
I know right I thank God LeBron didn't have to go up against this guy especially if the media talked about him as much as they do now Jordan would have abused him
I don't understand why people still argue with this GOAT thing...Jordan is unquestionable...This video show it all. What he was able to do already in his rookie season. But more then that...Do you notice how he was able to connect with the crowd? How easy he could make the crowd go wild? He was able to push for his team mates, for the people watching the game...He made everybody on that arena believe that was possible...a rookie guy doing that!!!! He is so far away from everybody else. The true is when MJ was playing he was being himself. Everybody else tries to imitate MJ.
You can see Jordan improvement during the game. Also, his teammates were not ready to play with his commitment to the game.
Going timid to the basket
Not ready for his passes.
Even Jordan learned after getting his shot blocked.
His energy brought intensity and it never let up.
What teammates 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Bulls were just plain bad in that era. He dragged them kicking and screaming, into the playoffs his first 5 years in the league.
I remember watching this game live as a teen. And knew when he made that driving layup and fist pumped that he was special! He brought a different energy to that team. Thank you Michael! For the best was yet still to come!
What you notice so quickly when watching these "older" games is HOW COMFORTABLE JORDAN and other guys are at OPERATING IN SPACE with defenders all around them. In today's NBA it's all about spacing, you just don't see post play, inside play like this anymore. Not just by centers but everyone. Everyone now just tries to be WIDE THE FUCK OPEN ... what happened to feeling the opponents body and being able to score over or next to them?
Every time I watched a young MJ he looked head and shoulders better then every else. Offensively he was clearly superior but on the defense end you have yet to see some one move how he moved and played with such intensity on that end of the floor. His playmaking was elite. When he started shooting more it was only because he had no one he can depend on offensively you can see early he passed the ball a couple of years later he took it himself he had to.
It was like he was playing a completely different game right from the start. His style was more like modern basketball but with plenty of physicality, while everyone else was playing traditional basketball. They had no hope of stopping him because they didn't even know what he was doing was possible.
💯💯💯
Yup, that pretty much sums it up. 😂
I agree, greatest ever to take the court! Love him or hate him, he was absolutely dominant each and every time that man played! Absolutely insane to watch...
MICHAEL JORDAN BECAME THE G.O.A.T. IN THE 1984 OLYMPICS VS THE NBA ALL STARS .>🎤
He killed the nba stars before his 1st nba game
Facts
STRAIGHT 🙆📱,MTFN 😤 FACTS😷!!!M.J#23🏀👑🤾G🐐O🐐A🐐T
True,
It's like everytime Jordan passed to his teammates they'd lose control of the ball or miss the shots. Could see why he preferred shooting more than passing to his teammates.
Mike had everyone ready to see what he was going to do next … so exciting 1980’s 90’s style
People forget how good Sidney Moncrief was.Played both ends like MJ.Just not as flashy.Solid pro along with Marques Johnson.
This is the man who took Chicago by storm!!! Continuing in the legacy of other greats like Gayle Sayers and Walter Payton M.J. immediately captured the hearts of Chicago and the NBA st large!! I attended so many of these games! Thanks for postinf.
This was before he realized how amazing he truly was....once he realized he was the hands down best his whole demeanor changed and he just become a boss...much calmer and the swag was off the charts
I think i like the early years of Mike's career more than the Championship years, it was just old school new and cool !
This Jordan kid could be something special.
Whatever happened to this Jordan kid??
"The ball was hit by Michael Jackson from the back" 14:50 (announcer) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
GOAT since the beginning!!!
The sheer amount of effort and drive and passion on every play is palpable.
more guts and heart as a 3rd game rookie than todays whole league...salute bruce blitz for dropping straight classic heat 🔥
Look how hard he played defense!
Yep, and it was just another Monday night for MJ! lol
He treated each end every regular game like a championship game!
This was just a taste of it. Whole entire teams would scheme plans to stop Jordan (i.e. Detroit pistons) . The so called Jordan rolls where you would get hammed going anywhere near the basket. This was old school. How I learned to play. You want to stop a guy or try and slow him down you made sure he knew you were trying to make it hard even if it was a hard foul here and there. Jordan finally got by the piston s and they built a good team around him and the rest was history. People these days are too soft for this defense. Honestly, the league would rather see high scoring offense these days . How the game has changed.
as a Milwaukee Bucks fan back in the 80's and 90's it was so frustrating to watch them get so close but either the Celtics or that guy MJ would keep breaking our hearts. Sydney Moncrief was a player that really worked hard to get better, he openly admits that he had to really grind to be good
MJ, always the best; coach Bobby Knight called it before he even played his first NBA game
Greetings from Romania !
When you combine heart and the will to win, with talent and athletic ability, you get greatness.
In today's NBA there would have been 200 fouls called and 4 assault charges. Everyone say if Jordan played today he would average 50. I say he would score 50 by halftime
That's mostly true, but if you watched the Bucks vs. Celtics series you might rethink the physicality of the game. 2nd part I totally agree with.
On both sides of the ball he could hold his own as a youngster. Come on let's not forget what he did to the NBA players when him and team USA played scrimmage againts each other, he was on another level. I suggest you guys check those games out. Jordan and Team USA vs NBA
Moves so majestically
It's fascinating to think the #23 was just any other jersey number when he wore it in this game and not hold the iconic symbolism it does today.
When we talk about basketball definetly it’s MJ not anybody ,if LJ plays basketball during the early 90s,with the GOAT,my god his name wouldn’t exist
My husband grew up watching this Bucks team and according to him, if it wasn't for Bird, those early mid-80's Bucks teams would have made a few Title games.
But, that Damn Bird(as he said😁).
Game has changed a lot these days…. He would have made 50 to 60 pts per game in this era
I'm young but I love these videos that highlight the true skills of the 🐐
could have had 40 if he wasn't in foul trouble.. 🐐MJ23
More like 50! Don’t forget he played soft in the 3rd and didn’t score.
Imagine a rookie being double teamed
Wilt, Shaq, Bird, D Robinson and Kareem are a few that comes to mind
Amazing how thin he was back then. The physical development as the years went by is astounding
Rookie but play like a Veteran,,,thanks for Uploading...
All hail the GOAT! I was so fortunate in my life to see some of his best in person. What a time to grow up!
The Best ever to play the game and most competitive person I’ve seen in any sport.
Bro your setup monologue on this nothing short of elite. Well done bro got me so hyped to see it, such great detailed context. 10/10
At 14:58 mark the announcer describes the foul being from Micheal Jackson… That‘s ok, the Billie Jean moonwalk performance was still fresh in everybody’s mind at the time…
6:22, that speed is insane. Nobody in the NBA today comes even close to that acceleration.
NOBODY !!!
@@j.skemez9403 I think by end of high school he had improved his 40 yard dash time from 4.6 to 4.4
He hyper spaced around that guy!
Michael Jordan's body fat percentage was around 4 percent and he had a 48 inch vertical leap from the NBA pre-draft combines
And he did it against the great Sydney Moncrief as a rookie, clearly a sign of things to come
Moncrief was a beast. He always guarded the other teams best scorer and usually shut them down.
The excitement in Johnny Kerr's voice is AWESOME! So many years of crap and now there's HOPE!!! FINALLY somebody has come along that knows how to do things the right way!
Michael jordan was always the best offensively and defensively..he's a true goat ngl
He singlehandedly turned the Bulls from the Cows to THE BULLS. After he left the team in 1999, they're back to Cows.
They're looking like Bulls again as of late.
They’re in-between cows and bulls right now though… good solid young team.
25-10 this year!
Mooooooooooooooooo!
Cole Train ...False! You also don't know anything about 'Trane, either!
MJ best talent as good as he played the game was his determination to win and he came in league playing harder than everyone else all out from beginning to in.
That's some scary defense on both sides. 😱
Aaaaand GOAT is wearing “Court Force” Nike before The Air Jordan 1! Nike never had the moniker “Air” until Mike came along 💯👑
What a great video bro, it took me back in time! Not from the video but it was awesome to see MJ grow as a person and a player. He is still my hero and I'm 43.
MJ and Bruce Lee the GOATs of taking human bodies to extreme
The best thing about basketball as compared to football or baseball is that you can’t be a great player unless you’re great at a few things. Most of the greats though have some weaknesses, even though they’re amazing. Jordan, especially in his prime, had no weaknesses. He was tenacious on defense, rebounded, passed, had great ball handling skill. He was simply amazing to see
The man would work on his fundamentals constantly to make sure they were polished to the highest level. Reminds me of a quote by Bruce Lee "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."
MJ walked onto an NBA court the first time and was instantly one of the best in the league. He had no adjustment period,he was great immediately. Unfortunately for him,he didn't get the help needed for the Bulls to get far in the playoffs. Once he was given help and Bird and Magic retired there was no one left to stop him.
lies ! He beat both and he crowned ! Their era ended and his began!
@@knightriderzzzzzzRead the above comments again. We all know Jordan’s first title was over Magic. The OP was saying that when those 2 retired there was no one to stop or effectively oppose him. I think he is wrong because there were many challenges and challengers that he and the Bulls had to go through. But to the OP, the reason Mike was so good as a rookie was because he spent 3 years under Dean Smith playing with and against the best in college and that 84 Olympic run.
He did this on my 5th birthday
This was incredible to watch, thank you so much for posting this. The raw energy and passion MJ played with, like his life depends on it. Chills baby. Never seen anything like it. The athleticism and creativity were otherworldly, but the heart this guy had. Incredible.
And this was just one game. I have seen and recorded so many on vhs where he just dominates when he wants. That 72-0 season nobody talks about. Makes me want dig out my many bulls games I recorded and watch Jordan drop 55 on th3 Knicks in the garden .
This really tells it all…that man played 2 quarters as a fresh rookie…got his footing in a portion of a quarter…then played the 4th quarter like an absolute champ..to think that he tried so hard to be a team player that the announcer said he’s not a selfish player and if a shot looks too impossible he’ll pass…then to watch his teammates miss perfectly calculated passes to the point that he had to stop passing…then they passed so poorly that he had t get the ball early and figure out a shot…he started jumping further from the rim so he could get any kinda clarity which increased his hang time…and I think one of the announcers cast a spell by accidentally calling him the greatest entertainer of all time (Michael Jackson) and never correcting in…this just showed how capable he was at adjusting for the game because it literally happened in real time here…very glad I stumbled across this gem
5:05 "Michael Jordan is a little bit better shooter than a lot of people gave him credit for". Might be some truth in that.
so much of his game is weirdly underrated or just has a false narrative out there. people need to forget the media and all that and just watch the films.
Crazy Jordan is like 6'5 but he not short at all look at him next to lebron James he not the much smaller and Jordan dunk on a 7'8 guy.
@@traviscarter1023 Jordan is 6'6
That moment when the announcer got Jordan's name wrong 😒 and kept going! 😆
You speak from the heart I feel you MJ all the way
Y’all just have to watch how they have to dribble, they carry now that’s why they can cross over, their hands are on top off the ball or side over top off ball 🏀,if these players get the chance to play today’s game all over
Jordan Just Keeps Working. He Out Works His Opponent.
That Summer prior to this game already signed to the Bulls Michael Jordan won his first Olympic Gold Metal as team captain Beating NBA All STARS composed of Bird (84 NBA MVP NBA Champion) Magic Thomas Dr. J ... 8-0 in a 8 game televised Series in preparation for the Olympics.
This is his Rookie year, 22 points in the 4 quarter.
3rd game
You don't see this anymore - all-stars that played both ends of the court. Seemed normal back then. Even Moncrief!!
Yeah cuz no one would consider you an All Star if you didn't and you definitely wasn't getting a boatload of money back then if you weren't the real deal unlike today
Played for Team USA during the summer of 85'. Was told by the League that since he was unsigned by the Bulls, if he got hurt, no union protection.
Played anyways, defying his agent.
Also, won NBA defensive player of the year and the scoring title in the same season. That is putting it out on both ends.
Not enough mention on that for sure.

real grown man's game in these NBA days lanes 🏀
Damn he was getting doubled in his rookie year
Greatest player ever.
This was when basketball was truly worth watching & now you primarily have show boaters in this day and age and now the NBA is so watered down, that these young dudes don’t even have to play true defense and it is all about scoring about 150 points per game 🤦🏾♂️
He will be the Goat for all times, in every aspect of the game. Yes there are alot of awesome players, some of them defined the game yes. But no other player had this impact and ever will. PERIOD!!!! Thank for this picture.
What a great video… Highly appreciated!!!!
Often imitated never duplicated MJ #23 #TBE
Notice how hard they played D back then. No shot was a gimme like todays “clear the lane and let him dunk league”.
I was a little kid and was watching MJ as much as I possibly could, lived in NC we all were big fans since his UNC days even though I was real little then I remember it.
