The Chicago Bulls' championship victory in the 1991 NBA Finals was the moment when the leading role in the NBA changed from Magic Johnson to Michael Jordan.
Yep it pretty much took place right at that Cliff Livingston assisted switch hand layup and the Bulls were a supernova from there
Jordan had become the face, as verified by Magic, and many other players, a little before that.
Yet, I think your moment is closer to the moment when casuals were hooked, and it was the next evolution in how big the NBA was.
The real moment, for me being a kid when the story broke, was Magic’s HIV diagnosis.
He might’ve played through the mid 90’s, and maybe got one more ring. He wasn’t about to retire, or had even talked about it.
Maybe but there’s No comparison to anybody and #Mike I’ve watched bb since the 60’s.
Knew he was special at NC but professionally he was on a mission and I was along for the mind blowing ride! #TheGOAT
Bruh jordan was averaging 32 37 33 and 35 in 87 88 89 90. He was the face and the best player in league before that, wasn't even close.
@@riseharris5204I'm not going to argue with you because I agree with you. I was born in 78 and I started watching basketball around 85-86. Michael Jordan is my goat but a lot of people have Wilt Chamberlain as their goat. You said you have been watching basketball since the 60s so I thought you wouldn't have MJ number one. I have him number one because I grew up in the 80s-90s and I still haven't seen anyone like MJ. I have been a die hard fan my whole life and there is no one in the modern era even close to Jordan. I can't speak on players from the 60s-70s because I never saw them play but I can speak on what I witnessed and Jordan is the greatest
Some people think that a lot of us are exaggerating when we talk about how incredible and amazing MJ was, but the truth is MJ was so good that we're underestimating him if anything, definitely not exaggerating. The GOAT.
I've been watching full games from his rookie season, stuff I've never been able to see really and they are just FULL of highlights it's insane, been watching since 91 and he's always been on another level.
Jordan is my goat. He's done things that no other player has done, or would able to do.
He was truly 1 a one of a kind basketball player.
So gas wilt. He’s done things that no one will do or able or will ever duplicate again.
Thankful in general to have seen MJ play and witness the standard on a night in and night our basis. Status quo was all 82 games and he was always there for us. Highs and lows we’ve seen, gracious in victory and defeat. That Goat Mountain Kobe mentioned is another great conversation altogether!
Mike was built differently in both mental and physical capacity, which is exactly why a guy who is only 6 foot six is The Goat ! Oh, and Charles Barkleys comments define Mike !
I was in a bar having a beer and a burger about 10 years ago and this other guy and I started a conversation about Lebron versus MJ. This guy said he kind of leaned toward MJ, but had a tough time explaining why to his buddies. I said "just tell your buddies that MJ is a stone cold killer the likes of which Lebron will never be."
That was all this guy needed to hear.
Absolutely. No one performs better under pressure than MJ.
MJ over Lebron but stone cold killer is not the argument to make
Fact
@@dkes53 Oh yes it is.
@@markmccarty2913 It's one thing and it's true for sure, but that alone doesn't prove he's greater than Lebron. He is greater than Lebron, but there are better arguments you can make in an argument.
Game on the line with 10 seconds left and everybody in the arena knew who the basketball was coming to. MJ. Second Bird.

All of those comments are facts, and MJ is and forever will be the 🐐 of the NBA.
Yeah, he was so amazing that he could be the GOAT forever. It will be a long long time before anywhere near him shows up, might never happen.
Michael Jordan is the greatest to play.
He wanted to be drafted to a team at the bottom, get that team to the top, and be the best player on the best team. Jordan wanted to win and bring the team with him to the top.
And he DID it
Phil taught Mike how to trust his teammates and give them the ball and still win ball games. That is the reason Mike said he wouldn't play for another Bulls couch PERIOD. Phil knew he had a GOAT on his team and exactly how to coach him.😊🆗
@carolynminter7839 it really doesn't matter what you do and you're choosing to do in life. If and when you have sense and vision........and Time has graced you with specifics that you've recognized, respect and adore. You will not be playing games and making random moves here, there and everywhere to find otherwise. Trust. There's a few things that no one can play a hand in mastering. .......and 1 of those few things is chemistry. Something that most are clueless about....as they allow and let the empty nothings of others interrupt what is.
@@carolynminter7839I don't think he taught him that persay.....as what's there to teach in doing that. Micheal pretty much trusted his coaches judgement. Especially since they likely interacted in ways that built that kind of trust.
Airness! Even without the Championships, nobody entertained and brought fans in like Michael! Game 6 of the 98' Finals proves that point! The most-watched event in NBA history with the TV ratings to prove it! Michael was leaving and the world wanted 1 last glimpse!
BTM is by far the best content creator out there I want to say thank you for sharing your journey with Us amazing
I’ll tell you why people who saw MJ, Bird, Magic, etc. play still argue that the 80’s and 90’s was the pinnacle of the NBA. It’s because those players never treated regular season games, even if it was a mid season game on a random Tuesday night, as a night off. What you saw was a group of players who never wanted to lose because they took losing personally. It was an ego thing and that translated to effort on the court that you could feel watching the games. You will never be able to feel that watching a CZcams highlight video or a rerun of an old game that you know the outcome of. You needed to be there in the moment to understand it.
The whole dang league was so much fun and had a completely different energy to it... the rules changes in 2003 have hurt the NBA and this Olympics we'll see why again.
Magic summed it up here. “It was about your passion, your ego, your love of the game. And it was about the fans who paid their hard earned money to watch you play.” That’s why Craig Ehlo would still chase Michael Jordan on a fast break.
Michael Jordan was the Michael Jordan of all Michel Jordan’s
I thought I heard it all about MJ’s competitive nature until I heard Rob Lowe’s story on CZcams when he coached Magic’s all star team
Everyone on Magic’s team seemed content with losing because it was only an exhibition. But Jordan was pissed and called Magic out in the huddle who was the host of the whole thing 😱
That’s some next level sh*r right there
The last game at old Chicago Stadium, Pip had a charity game, and stacked the his team against Jordan, John Starks said Jordan lit Pippen up, won, and told Pip don't ever stack the deck against him again, Starks also said Mike told him to give him the ball and move the fuck out the way
In the Charles Barkley story, Michael wanted to destroy the guy. Lebron would have tried to join him.
😂😂😂
Best comment here
😂😂😂
Facts
Michael Jordan was playing in the new era most definitely he will win 10 or 11 rings.......
Great video!!!! awesome stuff! Always!!!!
MJ, no questions, GOAT
Thank you brother!
God Bless 🙏
MJ is absolutely the greatest.
Brotherman as I’m wearing the #23 Jordan reppin OG Adidas 🐐 I feel proud and so blessed to be from that era !!! 🔥☄️🔥💥👌🏼
If he watchs this video he will take it personally 😂😂😂
MJ ,MY GOAT
Mine too. Nice pick
But for everyone who understand basketball, Jordan is the Goat
THE GOAT. POINT BLANK and PERIOD🆗💯👍🏽❤️😊
The Puerto Rico one where he was on the dream team and it was going to be a clear blowout and he found out about some guy on The PR team talking bad about him in a Puerto Rican newspapers is the one that always gets me. 😂😂😂😂
My brother I went to school with him. I seen him from his junior year to his senior year and his first year at North Carolina University always knew he was going to be great. He just had he just had something special about him and you can feel it.
Merry Christmas!
Combine a bewildering leaping ability, blistering speed, infinitive endurance and stamina, a fundamentally sound understanding of the game, and an astonishing, borderline psychotic desire to not just win, but to utterly demolish the competition and ruin their confidence, and you get an athlete that threepeated, retired, and came back to threepeat. LB didn't threepeat, although he went to eight straight finals. Kobe did it once, but he had an unstoppable tank named Shaq. Russell won eight straight titles, but the league had about ten teams, and he had numerous HoF legends playing with him at any given time!
Jordan was just mental in the head and wanted to win like his life depended on it which sets him apart then you add his ability as a athlete and basketball brain he was lethal
You know, Sean? You just helped me. I'm a huge Scottie Pippen fan, but as you just said - - not forthwithstanding the GOAT conversation, Michael Jordan is MY favorite player of all time. Scottie is the closest second, I love them both! I also love Kobe's GOAT mountain!
Not only is Jordan the goat but the whole 90's Era is the Goat in music also! Rap, R&B, Reggae, Pop, Salsa, and Merengue!!!
Jordan, I played like he does, there are times when my team was bullied and I got triggered. Yes I took over down 5-2 and won 7-5 they stuck at 5.
Even my teammates said”” there he goes, his unstoppable “
To me Jordan inspired me to play hard and never give up.
The 🐐
Even a LeBron apologist like Shannon acknowledges the greatness of MJ
Mike hands down. I remember when I was young my dad said check out this guy. 91 championships and it was Mike. Basketball was never the same 4 me. I saw him play live 6 times after that and man, I truly thought he was black Jesus
Great content. MJ all day.
MJ= GOAT! I appreciate your work. Well done and Thank you.
My GOAT is Michael J. Jordan hands down no contest. I was around for the whole show. The only person that would strike fear in the hearts of opposition outside of prime Kobe was that man. His influence is still in the game anyone that is 35 plus and sides with any other...they came into the game way too late.
MJ is the goat. Let's see a Bird/Lebron debate, or a Kobe/Lebron debate. Those are more realistic.
I disagree with the LeBron / Kobe. Kobe was a different animal. Not quite MJ, but he was different. The Redeem Team proved that more than anything.
Yeah, those debates make sense. MJ was so amazing that you can't even put him in a debate. I mean people do with Lebron, but it's silly.
@@billj4525 MJ made you excited to watch the game. Not many athletes have given me that feeling. Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao had a similar vibe in creating excitement. Lebron, not so much.
MJ 🐐🐐🐐🐐💯💯💯💯
That Ron Artest comment was definitive. MJ 🐐
Vin Baker was such a letdown for us Seattle fans. Kemp would rise up in the playoffs, Vin disappeared. That sucked.
NBA needs to bring back the Sonics.
0:19 just what we saw a few moments ago @ 0:03
Jordan is definitely my GOAT! My favorite players are Jordan, Dr. J, Bird, Magic, and Kareem! Oh, and Wilt!
All time great!!!
MJ is my favorite of all time!!!
7:37 Who is Oscar *_"Robinson"_* ?
Yeah, I caught that too. You'd think Kobe would know his history better than that.
MJ will always be the goat no matter what anybody else does. No body has the will to win like Jordan. He wanted to beat every team that got in his way to the Championship. Enough said!
Michael has a competitiveness problem.
Back in a day, there was one rule among Bulls players. If MJ or Pippen or any other starters ask you whats the score. You answer zero: zero always. If you look at the score sheet you are gonna chip in the jar money. Thats how sick was their mentality.
Listening to the players it sounds like MJ is folklore, he's much talked about, you hear a lot of stories, like the legend has it, but in reality, the legend is real.😳
I like the way Kobe Bryant put it GOAT mountain
MJ- COAT " IT A FACT "" FILM DON"T LIE"" 💪💪💪
Lol@ the vin baker, “this is secondary” story followed by Jordan playing too much golf before a game.
I love it! There's something wrong with this dude.
Mike : doing a commercial the day before a big game is an insult to me.
Also Mike : hell yeah i will play 36 holes of golf before a big game.
JORDAN WAS TOP NOTCH PERIOD 💯 PERCENT PERIOD...
I agree. Jordan all the way. We all wanted to be like Mike 😎
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I'm going to keep saying this,MJ sneakers alone makes him the g.o.a.t!
Players today don’t care about the fans spending their hard earned money to go watch them play basketball. Now they asking security to kick fans out of games for trash talking.
i love mj end magic
Bad boys Detroit❤
MJALLDAY
i too miss the days when NBA stars played every game they could during the season.
No load management.
No sitting a game out cuz your team facing a tough match-up that would negatively impact your stats.
Respecting the fans who paid their hard earned money for them tickets.
I'm thinking Michael Jordan is a silent sponsor of your channel. 😉
Haha I remember those plays like when mj would drive in and then pass it back . Nobody expected that , not even Luke Longley. He caught the ball and still couldn’t believe it for a half a second
Charles says, "there's something wrong with this dude." 😂 Uh Charles, I remember a elbow to an Angola player's chest. LOL
Have your done Skip to my lou,v AI?
¿Michael Jordan in the current NBA (2024).. And in his prime?..
Well, easily 50 points per game..
🎉MJ the BEST, that BEAST, that COLD BLOODIED KILLA! THE GOAT!
Michael Jordan The Goat 🐐
My goats will always be Mike, Larry and Wilt honorary listing for Bill and Kobe (yeah guys LeBron aint in my top five 😂)
Those men between them have records and accomplishments THAT WILL NEVER BE TOUCHED
Let alone their mentality their drive and accomplishing these things in a era considered handicapped especially compared to how easy it is nowadays for offensive players
thats why i like players like Jokic way more... dont giving a s... about stat and doin a job waiting to get some free time for more important things in life (like we all)
Would be awesome to see MJ lockdown Jason Terry ✌️🤣
Michael Jordan = 🐐. That's it. End of discussion.
You talk about Jordan every week I think you have a man crush or bones for 😊
Jordan is great. Period. But he's great because he built a team that assisted his career and brand. Take Dennis Rodam. Jordan fought to get that man on the team. Rodman can't score a point to save his life but he can rebound. This helped Jordan win games and give more opportunity for Jordan to get more points with an additional player that helped HIM look good. Notice we only talk of Rodman as an after thought, after Jordan. He was key to Jordan's* success. And he's just one example.
How many points would Michael Jordan average in today's league? Well, he used to win it every year. So, he would win it every year now. So the answer is however many points it took. He's so competitive that he just would not be second.
Crazy? 😂😂 he was built and destined for greatness ! 🙌
And that's why he is a universal icon!!
7'04 YES Magic! Players weren't driven by money! Plpayers are overpaid today!
Not a psycho but an NBA player who hates losing and will do everything he can to win with out the media and the leagues Commish
Jordan then Bryant then Wilt don’t forget Magic and Bird
MJ isn’t just the goat of basketball, actually he’s considered by most the goat athlete in human history
Yeah, he was voted the GOAT athlete. He was definitely better at his sport than anyone was at any sport. In fact there used to be a quote that a few people said that said Michael Jordan is better at basketball than anyone has ever been at anything. Obviously a quote like that can't be verified, but it gives you an idea of how freaking good MJ was.
MJ took full advantage of the cameras rolling.
When Kobe says Jordan is the Best. And we all know that Kobe was (rip) the best in the 2000th and played Jordan.... we know the answer... there is a part in your vid with all the great names: Russel, Olijowan, Bird, Robertson, West and so on... they are great cause they did NOT change teams and promised 8 rings just to leave next year.....
My Top 3 best players of all time: 1. MJ 2. Black Mamba 3.LeBron
MJ is the Goat
As kid I knew many young psychofans, like we all, I always laughted at idolatry and made them mad :D I told my friend "yes hes the best but he is a psycho. boring obsessed dude who must win and does all just for this. he is not interesting as a person and way to live. Just great example as player, very noble, dominant, ideal mindset about basketball from playing to making a team, read game and know the game ay finest". And the truth was making them mad, buying shoes cleaning it, hanging posters and quoting anything to any ocasion :D Jordanomania was big and so funny for people who just love this game, zero cap besides ;)
Michael Jordan is the GOAT
No question about that, and LeBron doesn’t even come close to Jordan. He may have scored more points, but he never reached the playoffs in all of his seasons, didn’t score a three-peat, could only win with a assembled super team.
Jordan never missed the playoffs in his entire career, scored two three-peats, and he was a real lead on and off the court, not to mention that his mentality was that of a real champion (which cannot be said of LeBron)
hilarious as usual shannon doesn't have a clue. says harden avg 36. that was ONE season. Jordan averaged over 30 for his career even with two seasons in washington when he was old. Jordan averages 40-45 in today's nba easy.
Jordan was one of the best ever to play the game and was enabled by the league to be even better!!
Look, to be scoring champion and 1st Team All-Defense is basically playing 40+ minutes intensely on both ends. MJ did this 9 times. If someone else can say this, I will listen to a comparison. He also did these things plus won a Championship and Finals MVP 6 times. Thats ridiculous. Including 1 season of scoring champ, DPOY and MVP. This is just a player that had no real weaknesses. Owns 2 of tge 4 best regular season records all time. And if you look at the playoff and Finals records, theres just no one who can match it. Just in the 1st 3 peat, did this:
1991 Finals- most consecutive field goals made at 13 (still stands Finals record)
Most assists by any players 1st NBA Finals
1991 to 1992 Finals - most assists in any players first 10 Finals game in NBA history at 91
1992- most points in a half at 35 points
Most consecutive 3 pointers made, 6 stood for 20 years
1993 - most consecutive 40 point games in Finals at 4.
Most ppg in a single Finals at 41.0 ppg
He did a lot more than this record wise but he had the most impressive career ever both team success and individually
Mj goat. Then Kobe. Then rest of my list
There are some people who got it
At his position, the best of all time is MJ.
Growing up, I hated MJ as Magic Johnson was my basketball favorite and MJ beat the lakers in the Finals.
Over the years I gained appreciation of MJ as he proved the global fans year in year out.He lead the Bulls into 2 3-peat which was
very hard in 1990s due to the parity in the basketball competitions.
Superstars in 1990s wanted to beat each other not join one another to create a superteam like superstars of today led
by Lebron.
It went from Walker 2 Arrest??? What in the actual fuck is being said!!!! This seems like a.i. at ots finest!!!!
There were only two players who could destroy you psychologically: Bird and Jordan.
Jordan - not even close.
Scottie Pippen vehemently disagrees with this notion that Jordan is way above everyone else.
Larry Bird said he was God disguised as Michael Jordan... I mean what do you say to that?
