Ppl always talk about 10 scoring titles... But leading the league in total points 11 times is even more insane, as it also displays his commitment to no days off
Is there any difference between scoring title and leading the league in total points, aren't total points made up of combined field goals and free throws?! In association football (soccer) the total points are goals added to assists, but it ain't so in basketball. 'nuff said.
@@emekaezeokoli1287 scoring title is points per game average. Leading the league in total points is based on your total accumulated scoring. Jordan won the scoring title 10 times but led the league in total points 11 times. You have to play a lot of games to lead the league in total points, but not to win a scoring title.
@@emekaezeokoli1287 Nuff said? Total points leader and scoring Title are two different things genius. Scoring title is the player with the most PPG avg, regardless how many games they played. Total points leader is an accolade for the player who scored the most total points that season. Jordan was the total points leader in his rookie season, but Bernard King won the scoring title.
Michael didnt take days off unless he had to because his team losing any game, even exhibition or pre-season was like a nightmare to him. he didnt want to give another team anything... thats why he was commited. he couldnt stand to lose even if hes not in the game, he was obsessed with domination, he wanted to break every opponents spirit down to the core. he was even willing to jeopardize his career remember him wanting to come back early from broken foot eventually team had to surrender to him but with time restriction because he was so addiment. he couldnt stand his team losing
@sportslangtv2181 not only is that getting old but it's a stupid thing to say. what did he win, he won mvp, scoring title, dpoy, dunk contest, all star mvp, leading the league in steals, and breaking scoring records, blocking records for a guard etc. ask Wade, Bosh, Love, Kyrie and AD what Bron would've won without them. no star can win a chip on their own, every star in the league always has a 2nd or 3rd option on their team. why didn't Jordan win without them, cause he had one of the worst teams in nba history.

Jordan is the greatest offensive player of all time, arguably the greatest defender (which is where he massively separates himself from Lefraud), the greatest postseason player ever and also the best ever in the finals going 6-0 and never even playing in a game 7. What the hell else is there???

his average scoring numbers, also should take into account that he played in an era that's a lot more defensive, lower scoring era, than the 2010-2020s current era. So even though we are getting more players who can average 30 for a season nowadays, it doesn't mean nearly as much. he also won the last championship with the lowest scoring supporting cast, and oldest team ever.
Well stated! Just like the then-former running back Jim Brown played the "man game" [then-Celtics centre Robert Parrish's(?) description of Hakeem Olajuwon's physical basketball game], by getting "in the trenches" plowing his yardages. That informed his miff when Franco Harris was inching closer but slowly to his record, thereby prompting Brown's threat to come out of retirement.

@dougamundson6836 so does every star in the game. but no way he travels as obvious as Bron does. jordans travel was when he would do his spin move and drive or do his fade away and would lift his pivot foot early, while Bron will take 3, 4 or 5 steps after he pick up the ball and is not called for travel. and Bron does a offensive foul pretty much every time he drives to the basket. both guys and every other star get fouled and it's not called. its a part of the game. it happens in every sport

Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T. There is no NBA player that even comes close to his airiness. Did y’all watch the movie “Air” that came out last year? ❤❤❤❤
Nice list, but #1 should be LONGEVITY and DURABILITY. That’s what ended making him have a huge gap between him and Larry/Magic when it was being debated and he never turned back. Magic and Larry would be hobbled in many seasons and it ended up in playoff or finals losses. Magic in 1991 was not a guy in good shape as he was notably tired in 4th quarters by then. This remarkable quality matters most because you can have all the killer instinct in the world and it won’t mean Jack sh*t if you’re injured. That’s where his work with Tim Grover gets overlooked and if you look at him even in his Wizards years, he doesn’t favor an old injury and walks completely balanced. Outside of MJ’s 2nd season, he was basically injury free and didn’t load manage. What’s even more impressive about this is when you consider his athletic high flying playing style where he’s alway jumping and the fact that he’d play golf often. The golf alone would’ve ruined many with that combination
Play golf often but also late night drinking and gambling. The issue with acknowledging his longevity and durability is it leave the door open for someone say like LeBron to take his "spot". Also Jordan did get some help in rule changes and teams weren't allowed to punish him for going into the paint. That was reserved for big bodies and contact was a guarantee. Some people are also just more durable regardless of how they workout or take care of there body. Probably some luck is involved. Its still impressive with or without hard contact.
@@jasonnelson6624 he got help from rule changes and expansion teams being added. Otherwise, I don't think he reigns over a super team league of 3-4 stars unless his team went our and got 3-4 stars. He thrived when the league had so many slots that contenders went down to 1-2 all stars each. Hence, the term "duo" was being thrown around more when I never would hear that term in the 1980s. In terms of Lebron being added to that longevity quality, that's true, but there's no denying he didn't have the competitive fire of MJ
@@eddieG667 I would have been interested in see how the Celtics would have looked. The had the potential to keep it going. But bad luck with Len Bias and also Reggie Lewis which we saw he had success defending Jordan. As for LeBron I've never been a fan. But he is all around solid. In a lot of ways kinda like Kareem. Both pretty dominant early on and of course dropped some but maintained for a long time without major injuries. Of course there are the allegations of performance enhancers with LeBron. Personally I don't care what isn't a performance enhancer?
@@jasonnelson6624 Celtics needed more than just Bias and Lewis, but who knows - we were going into the expansion era where contending teams had 2 all stars instead of 3 or 4.
Never seeing a game 7 in the finals. playing all 82 games 9 times. Went 8 seasons never losing more than 2 games in a row. The only player in NBA history to win A Title An MVP FMVP Scoring title named all defense 1st team All in the same season. Jordan did it 4x
@@andrewcook1246 1st: I disagree with u entirely.. but 2nd: hand checking was absolutely “legal” in the ‘80s & ‘90s. The NBA didn’t ban hand checking until the mid-2000s.

1 reason why he the goat. Because he is. Who wearing bill Russell or wilts shoes? How many more Jordan’s ya got over lbj shoes? Who got more then 5 Kobe’s in their crib? I bet all ya got every number js in ya crib in every color way. If ya Spanish I bet u got all the fused Jordan’s and team Jordan’s lol.
Exactly! Even now when Bron’s earlier shoes are retro-ing, no one CARES! They’re sitting on shelves & even going on discount. no one cares about his new shoes neither
@@TheThaiTerror like to be the goat, everything u touch is gold. Shoes, finals, scoring titles, defensive teams, blocks steals, gold medals, this man did it all in 13 years (last two was Jordan having fun being himself he wasn’t thinking about going hard at that age but his game was still good) you got lebron in year 21 you got kd in year 16 some shit like that. Matter fact lebron leads scoring all time, he is undoubtedly the best player to play the game but he is not the best winner. Yes claim bill was the best winner ok he got 11 but he also lost on the final stage as well. Jordan is the best winner in my book y? Name someone else who helped his team 3 peat twice? Ok I believe bill did it at some point but Jordan’s did it when there was what 30 teams or lil less than that. Bill went against like 10 to 15 teams. lol Jordan never switched teams to win. Even Kobe almost 3 peated twice. He almost switched but that fell through. Can’t say none of these new noggas put on for the city cause they leave their city. I ain’t talking bout random trades I’m talking demanding out. Sitting out so they can get out. I got one Jordan jersey every body got 3 lebron jerseys 4 Durant jerseys. Etc. ok wizards mj was a great jersey but there was no actual work put into that jersey but the 17s was nice with that case tho
For those who actually watched the goat we know todays basketball as for many sports you can see they have ruined once again no defense and no real men 😂
Just like Pippen said "You can never compare MJ to James". It is like comparing a "real" Bull to a real goat. You can call the other guy goat, donkey, chimp whatever, but we still call Michael Jordan the "Black Jesus" of basketball. That was God disguised as Michael Jordan. - Larry Bird Air Jordan still sounds better than Air Leflop.
@@joewilliams143I agree with letting bean rest, but his fans can get as crazy as leflops stans, saying ridiculous shit like bean was actually better than mj, I watched them both and bean as great as he was, wasn't as good as mj , no disrespect to bean at all
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU 4 GOT 2 SAY IS. HE DID THE 3-PEATS ONLY ON ONE TEAM !!!!! HE NEVER RAN TO PLACES LIKE LAFLOPP JAMES. KING CHOKE KING JOKE. THATS Y I STOP NBA I HATE THESE CUPCAKE RULES
MJ is my GOAT but to call him the GOAT is just an opinion. There is and has never been an award given to one single player in any sport that says Greatest of all time
MJ was great but he wouldn’t have been goat had he not got one of the greatest coaches ever and he also had Scottie pippen. MJ never changed teams, coach and A sidekick once he started winning. Lebron never had a Pippen or a great coach in his first 8 years in the league but he did all he could with all he had. When your team couldn’t get you a good side kick and a good coach it makes a big difference.
That's not true. Jordan turned a provety franchise into a Playoff team and had the Bulls in the 89-ECF with D.Collins as head coach and no All-Star caliber teammates. Phil was a nobody before he took over a Conf.Final team expected to win. Pippen wasn't even an All-Star when the Bulls won their 1st ring. LeBron had Big Z, Varejao, Eric Snow, Boozer, B.Wallace, Jamison, Shaq, Mo Williams, etc, in his 1st 7 years in Cleveland. We must also remember Jordan played in an Eastern Conference with multiple GOAT level teams. When the 07-Cavs made the Finals C.Billups Pistons without B.Wallace and coach Brown were the top teams out East
Y'all be making these random old Michael Jordan videos. Go date the man and have kids raise a family. That's how y'all are acting towards a 60 years old man that played dam near three decades ago. The funny thing is Michael doesn't say anything it's y'all keeping his nuts warm
Mike stopped nobody from winning anything he retired for almost 2 years and none of those guys won anything if anything Hakeem won with lesser talent than Mike so what we saying grown man out here glazing
That's why you can't say that about LeBron because he doesn't have the talent to do not one of those things not one and everybody ate on the LeBron's Watch that's not goatish
MAJOR HATER. The word lMPACT. None of those players can COMPARE to his PRESENCE on the court and in SOCIETY even today. We don't even have to talk about STATS. You will never see any of those players LOGOS on ANY sports team's uniforms. Just look at every major sport in AMERICA and you will see that MAN'S image on one of them. State the FACTS, not your OPINION.
Duncan wasn't a better leader, LeBron isn't a better player, and Wilt teams did better when he shot the ball less. Jordan is better than Wilt. Wilt has holes in his game Jordan dosent.
Jordan knows he got lucky, when Magic Johnson falsely got diagnosed with hiv, Jordan knows he wouldn't have six rings, that save Jordan's career, even though Jordan was nothing without Pippin, and Jordan only started winning as the Celtics started getting older and the Pistons, 6 and 0 the Celtics are against Jordan and the Bulls in the playoffs, Jordan moves, that he stole from other great NBA players before him, Kobe Bryant just made them better, but I guarantee they will take down my comment, cuz Jordan fans cannot handle the truth, Jordan could not win anything for the Wizards and let's not even talk about his baseball career😂😂😂😂😂😂
What do you mean Jordan is nothing without Pippen? What happened to the Bulls after Jordan 1st retired and Pippen is the leader of the team?, They struggled so hard they cannot even make it to the playoffs! Guess what happened when Jordan came back to the Bulls? Another 3 peat! Stop the cap dude. 😂😂 You cannot even spell Pippen correctly! 🤡

It's sad there virtually no footage of his greatness. Which makes it really hard to compare.
@BoxingisgoatedBoxingisgoatedWe're talking about production ON THE COURT here, nothing to do with off-court tattletales! 'nuff said.
LeBum crying watching this
😂😂😂😂😂
I DONT HAVE a #2 all I know is JORDAN is the GOAT..A FIERCE COMPETITOR..A KILLER..A MENTAL ASSASSIN..10 SCORING TITLES WOW talking about DOMINANCE 😳
No need for a #2… your #1 says it all!
MJ recorded the best ever gamescore in NBA history.
MJ recorded the best ever season individual performance in NBA history
MJ went 626 game stretch or 8 seasons without ever losing more than 2 games in a row! Now talk about utter domination, nobody even came remotely close of such performance.
626 game stretch or 8 seasons without ever losing more than 2 games... and you attribute that to MJ not his 90's super team?
@@phillyphan1346 sure the team played a part but note that the team stretch ended halfway when he left the 1st time in 94-95. No other teams or players have ever been remotely close to achieving this stretch. The closest are just around 300 games by a few players like Kobe during his 3peat title years.
NOBODY terrorized the NBA the way this dude did! [BEFORE OR AFTER.] He may not be a liked individual -but, he's not playing to be loved.
Great video! Keep speaking facts!
Thank you! Will do!

Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T. There is no NBA player that even comes close to his airiness. Did y’all watch the movie “Air” that came out last year? ❤❤❤❤
Nice list, but #1 should be LONGEVITY and DURABILITY.
That’s what ended making him have a huge gap between him and Larry/Magic when it was being debated and he never turned back.
Magic and Larry would be hobbled in many seasons and it ended up in playoff or finals losses. Magic in 1991 was not a guy in good shape as he was notably tired in 4th quarters by then.
This remarkable quality matters most because you can have all the killer instinct in the world and it won’t mean Jack sh*t if you’re injured. That’s where his work with Tim Grover gets overlooked and if you look at him even in his Wizards years, he doesn’t favor an old injury and walks completely balanced.
Outside of MJ’s 2nd season, he was basically injury free and didn’t load manage. What’s even more impressive about this is when you consider his athletic high flying playing style where he’s alway jumping and the fact that he’d play golf often. The golf alone would’ve ruined many with that combination
Play golf often but also late night drinking and gambling. The issue with acknowledging his longevity and durability is it leave the door open for someone say like LeBron to take his "spot". Also Jordan did get some help in rule changes and teams weren't allowed to punish him for going into the paint. That was reserved for big bodies and contact was a guarantee. Some people are also just more durable regardless of how they workout or take care of there body. Probably some luck is involved. Its still impressive with or without hard contact.
@@jasonnelson6624 he got help from rule changes and expansion teams being added. Otherwise, I don't think he reigns over a super team league of 3-4 stars unless his team went our and got 3-4 stars. He thrived when the league had so many slots that contenders went down to 1-2 all stars each. Hence, the term "duo" was being thrown around more when I never would hear that term in the 1980s.
In terms of Lebron being added to that longevity quality, that's true, but there's no denying he didn't have the competitive fire of MJ
@@eddieG667 I would have been interested in see how the Celtics would have looked. The had the potential to keep it going. But bad luck with Len Bias and also Reggie Lewis which we saw he had success defending Jordan.
As for LeBron I've never been a fan. But he is all around solid. In a lot of ways kinda like Kareem. Both pretty dominant early on and of course dropped some but maintained for a long time without major injuries. Of course there are the allegations of performance enhancers with LeBron. Personally I don't care what isn't a performance enhancer?
@@jasonnelson6624 Celtics needed more than just Bias and Lewis, but who knows - we were going into the expansion era where contending teams had 2 all stars instead of 3 or 4.
Never seeing a game 7 in the finals. playing all 82 games 9 times. Went 8 seasons never losing more than 2 games in a row. The only player in NBA history to win
A Title
An MVP
FMVP
Scoring title
named all defense 1st team
All in the same season. Jordan did it 4x
That's why I don't lower myself to argue the MJ vs LeBron goat debate
Team Jordan. Easy answer here. LeBron may have the stats, but Jordan impacted the game on a whole nother level
If LeBron is the King than Jordan is Jesus Christ the King of Kings!!!
You didn't mention the Dream Team in accolades.
Real goat
Never seen Jordan give up seen lebron give up on a lot of games
Who’s gonna be the 1st Bron Bron fanboy to chime in?????
me
@@erabu4395Booooooooo this man😂😂😂
Bron is better. If Bron played in the 80s and 90s when neither zones nor handchecking was allowed he'd avg 50ppg and never lose a finals
@@andrewcook1246 1st: I disagree with u entirely.. but 2nd: hand checking was absolutely “legal” in the ‘80s & ‘90s. The NBA didn’t ban hand checking until the mid-2000s.

10 Reasons Why MJ Is The GOAT? I can give you a thousand reasons why Jordan is the GOAT !!
Right?! 10 have been already listed ... now start with #11, GO!
@@TheThaiTerror How about Michael Jordan with a 10-1 lead on LeBron in Total Scoring Titles. That is so lopsided!
The fact that the 3rd most points in the NBA( karl malone), most assist in NbA(john stockton) are ringless during their prime because of him
💯💯💯💯👏👏👏
I got jordan number 1, then kobe or lebron, then magic...
Based on sales, impact, and everything, ty for watching
Michael Jordan - 2 3peats
Lebron James - 2 Big 3's
😁😆😂
He included Patrick Ewing here who were HOF but not able to beat the Chicago Bulls for the ECF of 90s resulting not to reach the NBA Finals vs the West Conf. He forgot Reggie Miller and Alonzo Mourning.
Jordan was so famous that groupies & star fuckers would forget about A list actors when he was around
1 reason why he the goat. Because he is. Who wearing bill Russell or wilts shoes? How many more Jordan’s ya got over lbj shoes? Who got more then 5 Kobe’s in their crib? I bet all ya got every number js in ya crib in every color way. If ya Spanish I bet u got all the fused Jordan’s and team Jordan’s lol.
Exactly! Even now when Bron’s earlier shoes are retro-ing, no one CARES! They’re sitting on shelves & even going on discount. no one cares about his new shoes neither
@@TheThaiTerror like to be the goat, everything u touch is gold. Shoes, finals, scoring titles, defensive teams, blocks steals, gold medals, this man did it all in 13 years (last two was Jordan having fun being himself he wasn’t thinking about going hard at that age but his game was still good) you got lebron in year 21 you got kd in year 16 some shit like that. Matter fact lebron leads scoring all time, he is undoubtedly the best player to play the game but he is not the best winner. Yes claim bill was the best winner ok he got 11 but he also lost on the final stage as well. Jordan is the best winner in my book y? Name someone else who helped his team 3 peat twice? Ok I believe bill did it at some point but Jordan’s did it when there was what 30 teams or lil less than that. Bill went against like 10 to 15 teams. lol Jordan never switched teams to win. Even Kobe almost 3 peated twice. He almost switched but that fell through. Can’t say none of these new noggas put on for the city cause they leave their city. I ain’t talking bout random trades I’m talking demanding out. Sitting out so they can get out. I got one Jordan jersey every body got 3 lebron jerseys 4 Durant jerseys. Etc. ok wizards mj was a great jersey but there was no actual work put into that jersey but the 17s was nice with that case tho
I think more than 10
For those who actually watched the goat we know todays basketball as for many sports you can see they have ruined once again no defense and no real men 😂
You forgot to mention the two 3-peats.
james is not even close
Wilt had 45 50 point games in one season and 30 in another season and 118 for his career so there you go!
Question guys! Did y'all know that MJ is the 🐐??
With 11 NBA titles (including 2 as a player-coach) Bill Russell is the NBA's greatest champion.
Eleven: Nike. Mic Drop
Michael Jordan's skill was so high-flying, even LeBron's hairline retreated just to get a better view
Just like Pippen said "You can never compare MJ to James".
It is like comparing a "real" Bull to a real goat. You can call the other guy goat, donkey, chimp whatever, but we still call Michael Jordan the "Black Jesus" of basketball.
That was God disguised as Michael Jordan. - Larry Bird
Air Jordan still sounds better than Air Leflop.
You forgot about Jordan's 2 Olympic gold medals
How come when referring to Jordan the narrative is Jordan went 6- 0 in his career....but only mention LeBrons 4 wins...but NEVER his (6) losses.....
Would someone please do a complete & exhaustive side by side comparison with Kopy-Kat Kobe???
We already know, just let the man REST 🙏
@@joewilliams143I agree with letting bean rest, but his fans can get as crazy as leflops stans, saying ridiculous shit like bean was actually better than mj, I watched them both and bean as great as he was, wasn't as good as mj , no disrespect to bean at all
And most of lebron accolades are questionable!! RPOY BELONGS TO CAMELO ANTHONY, bubble gum championship etc
2 gold medals
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU 4 GOT 2 SAY IS. HE DID THE 3-PEATS ONLY ON ONE TEAM !!!!! HE NEVER RAN TO PLACES LIKE LAFLOPP JAMES. KING CHOKE KING JOKE. THATS Y I STOP NBA I HATE THESE CUPCAKE RULES
MJ is my GOAT but to call him the GOAT is just an opinion. There is and has never been an award given to one single player in any sport that says Greatest of all time
iyak leflop.
WILT
Hey
Drexler won with the 95 Rockets & what about Reggie Miller?
These are great reasons for why Jordan is second to Wilt.
Please explain
And Clyde drexler win a title.....
Baaaa 😂
MJ was great but he wouldn’t have been goat had he not got one of the greatest coaches ever and he also had Scottie pippen. MJ never changed teams, coach and A sidekick once he started winning. Lebron never had a Pippen or a great coach in his first 8 years in the league but he did all he could with all he had. When your team couldn’t get you a good side kick and a good coach it makes a big difference.
That's not true. Jordan turned a provety franchise into a Playoff team and had the Bulls in the 89-ECF with D.Collins as head coach and no All-Star caliber teammates. Phil was a nobody before he took over a Conf.Final team expected to win. Pippen wasn't even an All-Star when the Bulls won their 1st ring. LeBron had Big Z, Varejao, Eric Snow, Boozer, B.Wallace, Jamison, Shaq, Mo Williams, etc, in his 1st 7 years in Cleveland. We must also remember Jordan played in an Eastern Conference with multiple GOAT level teams. When the 07-Cavs made the Finals C.Billups Pistons without B.Wallace and coach Brown were the top teams out East
Even he is not, the goat is still not LBJ
Case closed.
Y'all be making these random old Michael Jordan videos. Go date the man and have kids raise a family. That's how y'all are acting towards a 60 years old man that played dam near three decades ago. The funny thing is Michael doesn't say anything it's y'all keeping his nuts warm
Mike stopped nobody from winning anything he retired for almost 2 years and none of those guys won anything if anything Hakeem won with lesser talent than Mike so what we saying grown man out here glazing
Fake GOAT
That's why you can't say that about LeBron because he doesn't have the talent to do not one of those things not one and everybody ate on the LeBron's Watch that's not goatish
*Why is MJ the greatest basketball player of all time? Well because he's the most famous.* 🥴
Tim Duncan better leader , lebron James better player , Wilt Chamberlain is the single greatest individual player
MAJOR HATER. The word lMPACT. None of those players can COMPARE to his PRESENCE on the court and in SOCIETY even today. We don't even have to talk about STATS. You will never see any of those players LOGOS on ANY sports team's uniforms. Just look at every major sport in AMERICA and you will see that MAN'S image on one of them. State the FACTS, not your OPINION.
Duncan wasn't a better leader, LeBron isn't a better player, and Wilt teams did better when he shot the ball less. Jordan is better than Wilt. Wilt has holes in his game Jordan dosent.
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 oh really I didn’t know oh gosh … aside from being MJ’s drida what else do you do for a living?
LeBron is better
Jordan knows he got lucky, when Magic Johnson falsely got diagnosed with hiv, Jordan knows he wouldn't have six rings, that save Jordan's career, even though Jordan was nothing without Pippin, and Jordan only started winning as the Celtics started getting older and the Pistons, 6 and 0 the Celtics are against Jordan and the Bulls in the playoffs, Jordan moves, that he stole from other great NBA players before him, Kobe Bryant just made them better, but I guarantee they will take down my comment, cuz Jordan fans cannot handle the truth, Jordan could not win anything for the Wizards and let's not even talk about his baseball career😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Why bring up Celtics 6-0 against Jordan and the Bulls. You must think the Bulls actually had a chance. How sad
Search for help 😢
What do you mean Jordan is nothing without Pippen? What happened to the Bulls after Jordan 1st retired and Pippen is the leader of the team?,
They struggled so hard they cannot even make it to the playoffs!
Guess what happened when Jordan came back to the Bulls? Another 3 peat! Stop the cap dude. 😂😂
You cannot even spell Pippen correctly! 🤡
Lucky???? Dude ur trolling!
The league should retire the number 23 #jordan
Agreed!
