    God designed MJ to play basketball. Huge hands, but his feet didn't match his hands. His feet were small enough to be nimble and turn the corner. Huge vertical leap. Strong, but within an athletic body, and not overly muscled. At 6'6 he had all the strengths and none of the weaknesses. Not to mention his strong focus, intensity, and IQ. Perfect player. Greatest player that will ever be.

      We all know about his vertical leap, but the nimbleness, quick first step, and his ability to lower his body while driving to the basket were a huge part of his game. The closest to him driving to the basket wasn't Kobe, but D-Wade in my opinion.

      Why are you'll always comparing these young black NBA players to Jordan how compare Larry Bird to Jordan or Dirk or Nash LBJ is a great player they play totally different from one another LeBron plays more of a team player it's nothing wrong with that can you imagine the pressure he had to go through coming out of high school and the team telling you your the one to get us there I would take his career any day he achieved more than enough to be placed in that position con you imagine what it must of been like to be a kid and everything is on you to make your team a winner 🏆 must of been hard as hell but he did it and it's nothing wrong with saying your the best ever you supposed to think that hell a bench warmer should think like that to I know I would be like I'm the best ever once I get in the game with 20 seconds left to me it's more than one goat all the HOF players are goats in their own way that's just my opinion stop trying to get in these young players head they can be the best they can be they don't want to be like Mike u hope they want to be better than Mike or think they are better I think he did a great job period even if he has less rings than MJ or get more who cares as a fan of both all I care about is their teams winning and LBJ had slot of wins like Kobe and MJ but to be really honest Kareem jabbar is the best basketball player ever on every level and Bill Russell is the best winningest NBA player ever period I do have MJ as my second favorite player behind Magic and Bird is my 4th favorite player

      BB Perez: Absolutely!! If you dared to push him or say he was lacking in some category he would just destroy the exact aspect he was accused of lacking. In the 92 finals they were comparing Jordan & Drexler. They said he was a better 3pt shooter than MJ. Michael said you only say that cause I choose not to shoot as many 3's. He then proceeds to break the 3pt rec in the finals in the 1st HALF!!!!! He could do whatever he wanted to whoever he wanted to do it to on both sides of the court!

    The creativity on his fakes and finishes is what gets me. He sells his post fakes so well. His fake spin is extremely fast, but he also takes a HUGE step in with the fake which would make any player think that he's going to drive. As soon as you react he's a foot to your right, wide open, draining a jumper.
    I watched Jordan in his prime when I was 11-13. I knew he was the greatest. But being able to analyze and see it again as an adult, it really puts into perspective how utterly amazing Micheal Jordan was. I respect LeBron, but he's never going to be on Jordan's level. It'll be decades before we get a second jordan. He's not a generational player, he's a once every X generations player. Like catching a full planetary alignment, or celestial passing.

      You're saying this league is soft? Are you saying you preferred it when hand checking prevented extremely skilled players from playing well? Hand checking removed skill from the game. You're saying you preferred it when 75% of the league did cocaine? That caused amazing players like David Thompson to play like trash. You preferred it when ILLEGAL DEFENSE WAS CALLED 13 TIMES IN A GAME. MJ was a psycho who punched his teammate. Larry Bird was an antisocial asshole. The league today is better now. Who gives a shit about softness. BTW, the Illegal Defense rule gave MJ an unfair advantage. LeBron doesn't have that advantage.

    • @mobregonjr
      @mobregonjr Před 6 lety +12

      Flappy turtle Skilled players aren't slowed down by hand checking. Example: Micheal Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Larry Bird, Kareem...ect......
      Hamd check fouls did however create players who only appear to be great because defenses aren't allowed to touch them. It creates players who flop and take advantage of the no touch policy. Example: Lebron
      Who cares about softness? I do. I dislike this new generation who teaches people to be soft.

    • @flappyturtle472
      @flappyturtle472 Před 6 lety

      +Martin Obregon Michael Jordan was strong and athletic. He would break the ankles of someone that would lean on him or put their hand on them. Kareem was bigger than everyone else and hand checking couldn't stop him from dunking over people or using his sky hook. Larry Bird was tough as bricks. Hakeem was also huge. These players you mentioned are legends, so they're mostly outliers. LeBron probably wouldn't get stopped by hand checking either.

    I got to see Jordan play live a few times while I worked for the Knicks and let me tell you- he was head and shoulders above everyone on the court. I was excited to see him in person after watching him play on tv for years and my jaw dropped after his first shot. He jumped so high into the air that all the other players just watched. He was quicker, and jumped higher than all of them. TV doesn't even come close to capturing how great this guy was in person on the court. I also got to see Lebron play in person. Their games are just different. Jordan was good AND fun to watch.

It was true creativity. You didn’t get that with the other guys , Lebron and Kobe. You got it with Magic Johnson though. But even he said Jordan was the greatest. Millineals just don’t know. Us GenX’ers were very lucky to be born and be teenagers and in our 20s when he played. And he never let us down. Perfect in the Championship Games 6-0.

      This is something a lot of people now days do not talk about. Yes, he was a GREAT PASSER. Many people back then use to give him CREDIT for it, but now days. People whom haven't lived, some haters of him because their team may have lost to him, or people never really saw the era he played. Are really down playing his ability to pass the ball. The bottomline is, he was a GREAT Passer, and near the same level as Bird and Magic, if not on it. He just didn't need to because the Game is about Scoring POINTS making Buckets. The game is about the SCORE, points make the SCORE. Thus the most important stat category in Basketball is POINTS. So Jordan did that, in one of the Shortest amount of time, which is important. Thus why +/- stat is the most important viewed stat in Basketball. None of those others matter, if you're not scoring points. Jordan in my opinion was not only great SCORER, but a GREAT PASSER. If he wasn't a greater passer, I have no doubt that he would have lost some of those FINALS, period.

      If you really think about it, only points in the game of basketball really exist which is the SCORE.
      That's the only basketball stat that actually really exist.
      All other stats only come into play if we're trying to get points.
      If we're not trying to do anything, none of the stats exist.
      They're only illusions stats taking of space.
      Even If I get hit with 5 second violation and players do not throw the ball in.
      You will be hit with a turnover! off the bases of not throwing the ball in to score points!
      No matter what, all the other stats are just creation of something off bases of Points or illusions.
      Only thing that exist is in the end is...
      Points

    • @boogieloo1831

      Egypt PHA - to a large degree, ur correct - points determine wins and losses. Other stats are important and measure many important things a player does but scoring is the most important. The real problem is the media. Their desperation to pump LBJ and all the little guards as well has created this worshipping of assists at the expense of scoring - and ignoring all the turnovers that LBJ and others make today. What's crazy is that scoring is so much easier today without physical defense but still nobody can beat MJ.
      Bottom line - they try to diminish MJ but they can't because it's not just perception with him - his body of work is the greatest ever and unassailable and irrefutable - MJ is clearly and always will be the GOAT.

    2:25 is probably one of the top 5 best plays off all time. Spins around two players, excellerates from a dead stop, jumps off two feet, dunking over Patrick Ewing.

    And people say , have the nerve to say Jordan didn't make his teams better. Cannot be the greatest of all time without affecting everyone and everything on the court. The best Complete player / competitor. In sports

      Kobe famously had a private room that was full of old VHS tapes that had every single game Jordan ever played. I give Kobe props, because he studied the GOAT and it made Kobe a great player.

      Kobe was legit coming straight out of high school, it's about as close as you can get to MJ, but there can only be one GOAT.

It’s just the generation who didn’t grow up watching 80s and 90’s basketball just doesn’t know how amazingly physical and competitive it was. LeBron should NEVER be compared to Jordan…EVER!
