Correction. Jordan is not ahead of his time. Jordan is ahead "of all times". No one in this era or any era can do all of these things consistently.
Jordan is ahead of all times, yes sir! :D
couldnt agree more. no one is even remotely close lol. like never was. Lebron a different position. not to mention he spends 1 million dollars on his body every year. Jordans era didnt have the medicine and training they have today yet played 82 games a season like 10 years lol lebron did that once or twice. jordan played 14-15 years and accomplished all that. Lebron nor kobe got all that done in that time
Well said. The numbers aren't even close. MJ is still in the top 5 of almost EVERY category for the past 40 years!
🥇
No other “all time great” (of any sport!) who played decades ago could materialize in the present day game and instantly be the best player EASILY. He would avg 45ppg without trying in the current environment.
These highlight reels don’t even show how he didn’t just dominate the entire game, on both ends, he absolutely crushed the fucking soul of the opponent.
Nobody has ever been better at any sport than MJ was at bball.
Many people say he was ahead of his time. Yet nobody today is as complete of a basketball player he was. Both skill and will.
🙏🏽 thank you I thought I was the only one they say these players today some good at this and some good at that but no one is great at everything
Bro you read my mind lol
Jordan ruined basketball for me. No one is or can do what he did.
They still can’t do half the sh*** he pulled off.
no one can even replicate those godly layup packages on a daily basis he does even if new gen's are saying the NBA is more athlethic this days lol
People don't recognize that his footwork was flawless
And it all came natural to him… perfection was just normal for Jordan… that’s what makes his style of play truly the greatest of all time.
I am 42, i hated Jordan growing up.. i was Barkley and Ewing fan... he ruined my childhood 😂.. but ain't no doubt Jordan is the GOAT!!
Detroit fan. After Bad Boys, Jordan was just better than our whole team. At least we got to see Hill abuse Pippen every game. That made us happy. We still got the L, but so did everyone who played 90s Bulls.
35 over here, pacers fan, enough said.. Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷👍🏻
I grew up on Penny. I had dreams of him and Shaq starting a dynasty, then MJ came back and chased Shaq outta the Eastern conference...
I’m the same age man. I grew up in town. Started trying to be like Mike in the third grade. I only grew to 6 feet, but I was lucky enough to play at a college level. Played a few games on a 9/12 foot and my inner Jordan came out. It is one of the greatest feelings in the world, to be able to dunk on someone as Jordan did thousands of times. GET OFF ME!!!
@@nathanlawson313 Hill, in my opinion would of been Top 10 all time, if his body did not betray him.
Bruh, even now, we still ain’t seen nothing like him
True. And that's crazy.
This was every single night. No games off, no load management. All heart and love for the game.
Dont forget ........no walkof the the court before the game is done....and leaving his team behind!!!..(.multiple times) lmaooo....
…no flopping either 😂
If he was playing TODAY he would still be ahead of his time. There ain't nobody like him TODAY. He is unlike ANY player we've ever seen. He is without question the G.O.A.T. and no one is even close.
The closet person is another planet away
@@carlrice3468 now he is but never forgotten closest thing was kobe
@@keanutaiaroa5808 Imitation I’d the best form of flattery and Kobe’s entire game was a copy of MJs.
@@carlrice3468 LMAO, facts, I definitely agree with you
I can think of one player who could and that is Kevin Durant if he played more D. That is what is lacking out of our players compared to this era. You did not get away with watching players go buy back then. Todays players just hang around and watch people go right on through.
Michael Jordan is the undisputed goat.
Simply the perfect fundamentals, perfect athleticism, perfect leader, perfect scorer, perfect defender, perfected skills, perfect winner, in short perfect basketball player. The name Jordan and basketball is synonymous.
Zero weaknesses.
I have to disagree, because I know full well even Michael Jordan himself would not agree with half the things you said… “perfect winner, perfect leader, perfect basketball player” He’s none of those things, but he pulls through and makes it seem that way to everyone else around him. He didn’t start winning without Scottie and Phil, he didn’t become a perfect leader with how he treated his teammates, and he never was the perfect player, but he worked hard and earned his stripes. He accepted he needed Scottie, he accepted he was to tough on his teammates, and he accepted he wasn’t perfect, but that didn’t stop him from having THE perfect career.
@NateTheGreatNDT there's always one and you get to be that guy.... 🤡
Jordan would break the internet if he debuted today the same way he did in 84 ... This 6‘6“ guy is catching bodies & making acrobatic & miraculous shots on the regular... & plays hellacious defense
If Jordan debuted in 2000s he would break the internet 5 times harder than anybody else did in these last two decades. People all over the world would lose their minds. :D And Lebron would be greatly over shadowed both accomplisments and popularity wise. It won't even be close. If people would still call Lebron King then many more other people would call Jordan Emperor or God. :D They called him Black Jesus back then.
Yea he would be bananas right now....because the defense & true center is all about non existent. So he'd embarrass this generation of bigs/guards. Just imagine how lazy most of em are on defense. It would be torch city. & then don't forget how much of a trash talker he was. He would mentally break Harden, Bron before the game even started.
For those of you on this post, Google Halley's Comet. Read the definition of the meaning, and then you'll understand why. Jordan fans are so loyal to MJ! Because MJ is and was the equivalent of Halley's Comet!
@@TheReddg71 they don't understand bro. They swear he was your average player. Not knowing this dude was literally a once in a lifetime type of talent.
@@crharper25 bruh! Long before CGI came along, the stuff we were seeing with Jordan! Was waaaaay beyond Special Effects! The stuff he did on the court, had you scratching your head and asking? "Did he really just do that?!" Because we couldn't believe what we saw in person or on TV! Jordan was just ahead of his time, and making Grown-Ass Men look like he was playing against children!
Jordan was so quick and agile they called him the Black Cat. He as also called Black Jesus. Kobe didn't just steal Jordan's moves, he stole his name with Black Mamba. Lebron took his number 23. These guys want to be like Mike so bad. That should tell you all you need to know about who the GOAT really is.
Reggie Miller called him “that black cat” after he talked trash to MJ and paid for it dearly
They even try to make the same movies.
@@absolutum790 For real. Jordan was so astronomically big, a worldwide phenom at his peak, that its no wonder some players wanted to "be like Mike." Lebron's little chalk thing he does is a direct rip off of Jordan as well. A lot of people don't know that. MJ didn't throw it up in the air like Lebron but he routinely went to the scorer's table and clapped chalk in their faces, so much so that some of them wore a mask.
@@rhapsodyinglue8758 " I never called him Michael Jordan again" 🤣🤣
Reggie had fierce rivalry with MJ, that's an ultimate compliment.
@@Lizards_Lounge agreed!
Now imagine reacting to MJ every game from 84'-98'...every week was a mixtape highlight reel!!! The more time goes by people tend to forget, or not really know!!!
There is not a comparison to Jordan. His real highlight reel would be hours long, he gave everyone the sauce in every game. It was a guarantee something special was gonna happen whenever that dude showed up.
Jordan earned his points and entertained the crowd. If sitting behind the 3 point line and shooting is exciting to you, then you a chump. If Jordan wanted to be a 3 point shooter he would be the best. Thing is, he could go the hard route and take it inside.
If MJ played in todays lax defense not as physical league, he would average 50 per game
Or gets fouled out lol
For sure
I'm a Larry Bird fan through and through. But I have to admit that Jordan was on a different level than anyone ever.
Agree
Bird up there though. That boy was vicious and relentless. Hurt and all. Jordan just had that shit very few people we know possess. They know how to use WILL to conquer the task.
Would have been great to see Bird with no back injury.
Larry Legend was a beast and is underrated by most people that never saw him. My favorite player is Hakeem Olajuwon, but I recognize Michael Jordan as the GOAT.
But, as a team, Jordan with his team couldn't beat the Celtics in a big game. Bird and his team won them all 6-0 against the Bulls.
I love seeing people who never got to seen him play watch this video and are in awe and can appreciate why many of us love him so much
Kobe was great but he was diet Jordan. The thing is, you said he was ahead of his time. The entire league is the way it is because of him. He made it a guard’s league. But consider what he did with heavy shoes, no advanced tech and rehab and nutrition science like we have now. That was sheer natural talent and hard work.
Facts.. Jordan was smoking cigars and drinking brews before games... that guy was just different !!!
Bro What U Doing Telling The Truth!!
ESPN Don't Want That Knowledge Leak Out To The New Generation Of BBall Fans Lol
Not to mention that era was way more physical. This era is baby sensitive.
You hit the nail on the head. Jordan changed the game into a guards league when it was all about the Big Centers and forwards.
@@bambam-pk3ju dont forget he also gambled too..
The thing about Jordan is his work ethic is unparalleled. Doesn't matter which generation he played, he worked harder and longer, and expected more of himself than any other basketball player in history.
Jordan was the best player on offense and defense. That’s why he’s above the rest
Get point. And you can add his mentality was like no one else. Mj had to win! Just amazing athlete and killer on the court.
Absolutely. There is no better two way player in history or since MJ.
48 inch vertical and ran a 4.3 second 40 yard dash, his physical abilities are what put him on that level. His determination and work ethic kept him on that level.
His vert is still tied for the record, and that 40... as if Tyreek Hill was 6'6" and could jump over an NBA center.
MJ is beyond the Goat status he flies over the MT Rushmore of the lesser four best
“I can see why skip bayless can’t get over him” ❤️. He was the truth my boy.
Probably will never see anything like him ever again. Giant hands on a guy who could jump higher than everyone, who was faster than everyone, who had a killer mindset, who brought all his teammates up to levels they could never have gotten to, who worked harder in the gym and on the practice court than anyone, who had the grace and agility of a giant cat.
In the postgame locker room, Bird was asked to talk about Jordan's historical performance. He said, “It's just God disguised as Michael Jordan.”
I saw Michael Jordan play Ball in High School. He was doing a lot of his same moves then. He graduated a year before me.
You were in the same High School and got to see him live?! Is it really true he got cut from the team during his sophomore year? Please fill me in on your experience as well
@@hairjordan2620 My Uncle was Also His Junior High Assistant Principal. I graduated from New Hanover High School in 1982 and He Graduated from Laney in 1981. It was true He was cut from the Laney Varsity Team as a Sophomore. This got MJ into the Mindset of proving the Coach Wrong. That is Why if you told Him he couldn't do something he would. New Hanover and Laney had a great Basketball Rivalry, New Hanover had Two future Pro Athletes on the Team. Clyde Simmons who became an ALL Pro Defensive End for The Philadelphia Eagles and Kenny Gattison who Played Basketball with the Phoenix Suns and Charlotte Hornets
Michael Jordan wore #23 because he said he was half as good as his Older Brother who wore #45. That was also Why MJ wore #45 when he came out of retirement. It honored his brother while waiting to get #23 back.
There are so many stories to tell.
Everybody talks about the dunks and the fadeaway, but that layup package was my favorite part of his game.
Facts,I use to definitely copy his layup and reverse layups move on the Basketball Court,it unstoppable
@@redscorpion9325 Jordan instinctively knew where the rim was at even when he wasn't looking at it.... shit is other worldly.
@@plantbasedministries9233 the way he contorted his body was literally unbelievable
Jordan was 6'6" doing this to 7ft+ legit big man centers that could and would body people w/out a foul call. Driving to the bucket and finishing like this was not a guards game in the 80's, nor was the post game. Jordan changed all that. You mentioned his hands, you can find sites that have hand measurements from past NBA players, Jordan's measures w/those same 7ft'rs he was playing against; its why he could do what he did on O and D. There is actually a highlight vid of him that shows just how hard teams started fouling him(specificaly the Pistons) they would hammer him, grab his ankles, club down on his head and wrap his entire body to stop him from getting to the hoop. No flag's or tech's back then for that stuff, just 1 of 5 fouls.
He took a ton of his game of Dr J and E Baylor, and if you watch the Bird ultimate mixtape, you'll see a lot of similarities there also. He was just great, at everything. For part of a season he had to play PG and he averaged a trip dub during that time.
That's exactly what I was thinking. A ton of the guys he dunked on in this video were 7ft'rs.
I just want to add that a lot of people mistakinly think that Jordan would have to work on his 3 ball to be competitive in the modern era. Jordan's 2 ball game put more points on the board than anyone playing today on a per game basis. MJ did not need a 3 ball to do this.
30.1ppg for his career, most in NBA history
33.4ppg in the playoffs, most in NBA history
33.6ppg in 6 Finals appearances, most in NBA history
41.0ppg in a Finals series, most in NBA history
PER (Player Efficiency Rating) Highest in history for both the regular season (27.91) and the playoffs. (28.6)
10 Scoring titles
So even with all the added possessions and all the 3's, Jordan still holds all the records AND his efficiency was ridiculous.
Thank you!!! Big facts, and it would be easier for him to get to the rim in today's era.
He didn't have to work on it because of what you said. And they don't know that he set the NBA record, at that time, for 3s in a Finals half in the first game of the 1992 Finals because a reporter told him that Drexler was a better 3 point shooter than him. People don't know what a maniac he was. He would most certainly shoot a better 3 point% if he played today.
@@moonakieater2308 If you want your mind blown, look at this video at 8:20 czcams.com/video/jaGGJLAGWeA/video.html
@@jackastor5265 i knew that because I've seen this before. But that is just in one year though. Most of those other players are better than him on average. If he wanted to though, he would've kept up for sure.
@@moonakieater2308 My point was Jordan could have been anything he wanted. He had a better year shooting 3's than all those guys listed. its just for the time period it wasn't necessary.
There’s a long list of things to praise Jordan about, but I just love how he always would seek out the contact. He loved working in the paint against bigger guys. He was such a killer.
You mean when he would double clutch to avoid contact sometimes or just dunk on anyone didn't care how big or little you were or how the Jordan rules went where they seeked to try and take him out like assassins. Yup he seeked out contact. Lol
Loke when he dunked on chris Jackson then dunked on tree rollins and asked is he big enough lol
I tell my 20 yrs old son this all the time. I think he went to the hole on purpose just to do his thing…
people nowadays shoot 3's, Jordan goes in with dunks/layups and gets and1 with fouls stacking on players on defense. Thats hitting 2 birds with 1 stone.
if jordan would have decided to be the best 3 point shooter he would have been!
Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time end of story
AMEN.
Jordan was SO special man, I'm so grateful to have been a part of that. Most complete player on both sides of the ball.
We still haven't seen anyone like Jordan. You can find clips from various guys who have done things like Jordan did. But Jordan did them game after game after game. His entire game was one long highlight film... and he was incredibly efficient. He wasn't just chucking up crazy shots... he made them.
All facts. That's why it's so hard for Bronsexuals to believe it. Mike went all out every game, no wasted movement, no resting on defense & damn sho no flopping. Mike did something spectacular every damn game.
One underrated aspect of MJ's game was his movement without the ball. Didn't need to run around like a headless chicken to get free.
Yep....a move here or there & he was free.
Jordan is the best defending guard in history. On ball and off ball. Start there before deciding who is the overall best.
The GOAT conversation is tough because of so many different positions and styles of play. I'm a Jordan fan because I saw his entire career and promise there's never been a better shooting guard. I don't like comparing some positions, especially centers to smaller players because they had such a different role back in the day. My favorite way to pick is by all time starting 5 which still gets difficult when picking a center. I have Magic at the point, Jordan at shooting guard, Bird at small forward, Duncan at power forward then at center I can't pick 1. Kareem was great but so was Wilt so which one do I pick? A lot of people who don't pick Wilt say it's because he didn't have enough rings but to me that's silly. If he played on the Celtics instead of Russell he would have all those championships as well. Shaq was a monster out there but Hakeem is the most skilled center and as great a shot blocker as anyone in history so who do you pick? If I was forced to pick a GOAT I would go with Jordan.
The Glove was the better 1:1 defender while Jordan was the better off ball defender.
He would have won 8 in a row if he didn’t go play baseball for 2 years
and maybe 9 if they didn't break up the bulls after 98
@@electricjoshaloo maybe, bet those 2 middle ones were when he was still in their prime. It was kinda ending after the 6th.
I think that break helped him.
@@electricjoshaloo def not. He wouldve won 8 though
Yea I feel like he would have beaten those Rockets teams in 6
His vertical was 48 and he ran a 4.3
Crazy was his 40 was 4.6 one year and wanted to be faster and quicker, worked on it and came back at 4.3. 6'6", 48" vert at least, 4.3 speed, hollow bones so he could float in air longer😂, hands that could grab basketball like a baseball, next level court intelligence, quicker than everybody, crazy in air body control, and a competitive drive above everyone and lockdown defense; Jordan the G.O.A.T. was DESIGNED to rule over basketball like Zeus. Someone may take King of longevity or stats, but Best Player is and will be MJ. And, he did all this at his size, in an era of true big men that would hack and beat you up, with no ninny "rest" days, or millions of dollars on diets and recovery machines; and he would punch his own teammates for the B.S. girly-ass flops of today's skirt wearing NBA. Privileged to watch his whole career, he's different, this isn't even a debate. MJ=🐐
if he played today, he would be ahead of THIS time too..
Oh yup
100% agree, I’m glad you said that I was thinking the same thing. Was a really good reaction but it seemed like he kept referring to it as if guys today are doing what MICHAEL was doing and that’s really not the case.
Fr, no one is palming the ball, shooting on the way down, or dunking on centers on a nightly basis (in his prime) like he did
Jordan will always get respect, you can watch these s million times and smile in amazement the whole video even if you seen the clips before. He makes u want to watch. You don't see that now, Noone id into anyone like we all are with Jordan still, just magic man... Jordan for president lol i wish
Im 43 so I grew up wearing the OG Jordans when they came out, I heard you mention how you dont know how he could play in them and wanted you to know. The original Jordans, not the retro versions you have now, were made differently and the cushioning was MUCH better than these retro's have now. The soles were made with soft foam, not the harder type they use now. The true basketball shoes we have now are even better dont get me wrong, but just wanted you to know that.
I still have a pair of old Jordan IX and 100% agreed on your comment
4:42 He hit that layup against literally their entire team.
Jordan averaged as many points as he did without putting up 3’s nonstop as players do today! Tougher Defense, no ticky-tack fouls and he slashed to the rim never avoiding contact. He is the G.O.A.T
It was funny when he came back from playing baseball, people on the opposing team defending him was wearing his shoes lol
@T. Dougs he came back more savvy too....still had his athleticism but just came back smarter and more lethal
MJ could jump almost a foot higher than Kobe and couple feet further…prime for prime Kobe couldn’t fk with Mike
Most don't realize Kobe's vert wasn't that great.
Skill wise they’re quite close but Jordan had a better body. Broader shoulders, stronger legs, bigger hands etc etc
@@GoGetYourShinebox they’re not close at all sorry
@@mannyneva1760 Skill wise they are, even Jordan acknowledged it. Jordan just had more weapons at his disposal and he was also the smarter player imo
@@GoGetYourShinebox MJ loves Kobe and has always been humble in talking about him but that interview you’re talking about he was being sarcastic…Kobe had nowhere near the moves and the moves he could do like MJ…MJ was more explosive better balance and coordination and more precise….the student doesn’t always become the master and in this case even Kobe said he didn’t get there and it’s not close.
Nice reaction, thanks for checking this out. The next MJ video you should check out is his Voyager video - it fills in some of the gaps of this one with a bunch of plays that are even more amazing than many in this one. Answers to your questions and other respsonses:
MJ's resume highlights:
- 6 rings & 6 finals MVPs
- 5 MVPs (tied w Russell for 2nd most behind Kareem's 6)
- 1 defensive player of the year (1 of only 5 guards ever to win it)
- 9 all-defensive 1st teams (tied for most ever)
- 10 scoring titles (most ever)
- 3 steals titles (MJ's still 3rd all-time in steals)
- 10 all-NBA 1st teams & 14-time all-star in 15 seasons (only season he wasn't an all-star was when he came back for the last 17 reg season games in 95 after his 1st retirement)
MJ's tied for the best vertical ever at 48", which was 10" more than Kobe's 38". Word on the street is that MJ actually got measured at 52" once, but not sure if that's really confirmed.
Bruh, that wasn't a pushoff, don't hate. Russell got his shit crossed and his momentum caused him to slip. There's a reverse angle that clearly shows that there was barely any force pushing forward from MJ and his hand slid down more than pushing forward, and it was impossible to generate much force given the angle of MJ's arm and his body position. Plus, NONE of the Jazz coaches, players including Russell, or fans said anything to the ref or booed after that play, which obviously they would've done if there was any suspicion of a pushoff.
Keep in mind that players in that era didn't grow up with a 3 pt line, which wasn't instituted in colleges until 1986 and high schools in 1987. So MJ didn't play with a 3 pt line until his rookie yr in the NBA. With his work ethic, if he had been able to practice with one early on, he would've been good from 3 instead of just average.
My headbanger darchon5 quick to drop that sincere and wise knowledge of that Reverend savior in Belly. I love when you school these ill-informed youngsters. This immature Marques "Batman" Houston looking young man must not know that Jordan was referred to as Black Cat because of his jaguar-like dexterity. He's almost shocked to witness MJ's fluidity. And you need to send him a voucher for Lasik if he sincerely thinks Jordan pushed off on Russell. The only one that pushed Bryon was Mr. Momentum. His anatomy was rocked like tectonic plates before earthquakes. He knew when Mike went hard right it was to drive. He bit as hard as Kobe did Jordan's steelo. I know Black Jesus is strong but not to move a 230 lb. professional athlete with a light swipe.
@@katrinachavez3533 Preach on, couldn't have described the non-pushoff better myself! And I appreciate it, but u da OG MJ commenter, always representin. I just try to do my part when I'm able to.

@@darchon5 Now, that's what I call the epitome of a team player. We can't be Black Jesus but together we make a Dream Team, like that 92 Olympic squad not OJ Simpson's lawyers.

Thanks for the great reaction! Hes still ahead of his time. I Haven’t seen anyone to this day do the crap i just saw on the video. Labron? Harden? Kyrie? Durant? Compare their highlights to Jordans, he’s on a whole nother level.
A Whole Other " UNIVERSE " tht is
You kno wht I always tlk abt is the Game against Portland where Scottie was shooting free throws he made the first one and missed the second, now I dnt kno whether MJ n Scottie planned but after the Game Scottie himself said he didn't kno where MJ came from bcse as he missed his second free throw MJ flew by him and dunked the ball the Missed Free Throw before anyone got the Chance to React, so imagine they're 5 guys standing in the key waiting to rebound the ball if it was to miss like it did but Absolutely No One got the Chance to React wow a mean you fckn Serious yow I cnt ever forget that bcse I was watching tht game and these guys today have the Heart to say tht LBJ is Better than MJ wen he has 6 Losses from 10 NBA FINALS .....
Tough finishes? He did it his whole career. Everyone tried to take him down, literally.
Michael Jordan made basketball into a gladiator sport!
The final tri of MJ, Pip and Rodman was such a great spectacle to watch. Was poetry in motion.
It's exciting to watch someone see Jordon's stuff for the first time. I love what I've seen of Steph btw. I gotta do a reaction as an old Michael Jordan fan on all the new players that I don't know. That would be fun.
This was when "men" played the game. Getting bounced around little bit was nothing to them. These days, Lebron stubs his toe and he's out for 6 games.
I'm not even a good basketball player and I get mad when people call those soft a** fouls after barely getting touched.

I grew up in Chicago in the late 80s through the 90s...
I was extremely fortunate enough to have attended several Bulls games while Jordan was there.
I cannot explain just how big of a World Wide Superstar Michael Jordan was... IS.
I find it difficult to imagine anyone ever having his work ethic, drive to win at all costs, and God given talent, all combined into one player...
The GOAT
He's ahead of our time. There is no one that has the complete package still like him.
This Bull’s mix is like Christmas morning 🎁
There is no other player who possesses this skill level and then you factor in the pure athletic ability. Yeah it’s unreal 🏀🔥🦄
He wasn’t ahead of his time my guy…we can start here..name another hooper he could jump off two feet reach max vertical in full sprint? You can’t
like someone mentioned, he played every play like his life depended on it. THAT is no longer seen.
Michael Jordan is its own legendary theme.
The way he electrified the game, changed the way it was played, inspired millions to be better... if you weren't there during the late 80s and early 90s...it is impossible to describe that Era....
Micheal Jordan was a killer, never gave up.... ever!! He was up against legends on almost every team back then and still dominated... the rules were tough, it was waaay more physical, and he still dominated... he was NEVER swept in the finals.... He never left or was traded... he stayed loyal to his original team.... that's loyalty man... So yeah, we know he's the goat and that's because he earned that.... we have massive respect for him.
simply amazing and for me the golden Era of sports, music, and art.... it's been a gradual decline ever since.
I can't even watch most sports today.... so boring, uninspired, no real legends anymore.... not for me.
Who else do you know who was named Defensive Player of the Year, while leading the league in scoring with 33 points per game? He made the all-defensive first team 9 years -- and still has the highest scoring average for an entire career (over 30 points per game).
How do you dismiss Magic Johnson so quickly? I think you should watch a highlight reel of him. I'm not saying he's Michael Jordan, however he's top 5 for sure.
THE RAGING BULL. A GUIDED MISSILE. AN ABSOLUTE WRECKING MACHINE. A GOD.✌
And remember, he did it in a time when the game was much , much more physical and violent, watch those Bulls + Detroit series finals .
They weren’t calling that hand check BS like today.
Or that Spurs vs Utah with Rodman as Spurs and Malone in Utah.
@@algladyou bruh, yup! And remember Chicago + Boston !! When Jordan finally broke through and his way to the first championship…brutal
Or Bulls Knicks games. Those were epic. After the bulls series against the Knicks, the finals were a letdown.
I was fortunate to watch MJ growing up. He was the ONLY reason I watched NBA. It baffles me how todays athletes very rarely use his business model. His marketing team was second to none. EVERYONE loved Mike.
Older players stiff??? Yeah you are young. Oh, and do not put Kawhi's name next to MJ. He is a great player and there are HINTS, but to be compared to MJ? Umm, no.
Older players were slightly stiffer though, but they had better fundamentals and were less erratic than the players today, not to mention they played with more intensity (from the late 80s to the early-mid 00s). I notice with the players today they seem to fall a lot when they make dunks, whereas that wasn't the case so much back then
And Kawhi's name can be put next to MJ's when comparing them, solely because Kawhi has a similar style with the hands to pull it off. It doesn't mean Kawhi is better or even close to the level MJ was at, it's strictly from a stylistic view. Kawhi reminds me more of Wizard's Jordan than anything. Kobe played similar to 95-98 Jordan, but nobody was like 89-93 Jordan, he was unique and the true master of the game
@@GoGetYourShinebox players fall today when they dunk, when they make layups, and when they shoot 3s, they spend more time on the ground than ever looking for that cheap foul, always beggin the ref instead if runnin back on D.
Your reaction is spot on. The thing much of the younger generation doesn't seem to understand when it comes to Jordan, this was him EVERY 👏 SINGLE 👏 NIGHT 👏! No plays taken off. No load management. No wasted plays. This guy killed you on both ends of the court every play. And he would do it after a night out at the casino without an ounce of fatigue. He was a machine. So it is nice to see people like you, in this generation, understand what this man was capable of and the heights he took basketball. Props for that! But then you have people say he played against "plumbers". No, he MADE THEM look like plumbers. He made many of them look average because he was so far ahead of the curve. Six championships, no losses. Six finals MVPs. Five league MVPs. Ten scoring titles. Countless All NBA and All Defensive First Teams. A Defensive Player of the Year Award in an Era where that award was usually awarded to the big men. Two Olympic Gold Medals. Hell, even a College National Championship at UNC in which he buried the game winning shot. He played in arguably the toughest Defensive Era. Still averaged 30+. And he did ALL of this in 15 seasons which includes his two seasons with the Wizards at the age of 40 and his handful of games when he came back from first retirement (or 14 seasons if we want to take out his second season that was almost completely lost to a foot fracture). Twelve seasons if we JUST count his Bulls years. Imagine if MJ didn't retire the first time, IN his prime. Imagine if Kraus kept them together for a year or two more after winning their 6th. Imagine Jordan having a 18, 19 or 20 season career. He could have. So just imagine where his stats would have been. How many more titles he would have had. In comparison, at 14 seasons respectively, Lebron was behind MJ in every major statistical category other than assists. He had 2 titles to Jordan's 6. Less MVPs, scoring titles and no DPOY. Had Jordan played 19 seasons respectively to LeBron right now, MJ would have had over 40k points and most likely been sitting number one in steals well. And the hardware gap was huge between the two. Accolades for days. See, I respect LeBron, just as I respect guys like Durant, your man Curry, Kobe (who is the closest we have ever seen to Jordan) and beyond. But Jordan simply packed in MORE accomplishments, both personal and team wise, in far less time than anyone else. I use LeBron as the example, because he is the guy everyone wants to make comparisons with. What he is doing right now is great, but look at how many years he has played to surpass previous accomplishments held my Jordan. Eventually if you play long enough, you can get them all. But when you look at Jordan's career with hundreds of less games and where he stands with achievements, it becomes clear just how dominant Jordan was. The argument of the GOAT, to me, hasn't even been close. It's okay to love your favorite player, everyone does and will, but as a basketball fan, you can't deny who sits at the top. "Jordan is the standard by which basketball excellence is measured" David Stern
Solid reaction!
I can't believe this shit! I grew up in the Jordan era. I grew up in the Bay. West Oakland to be exact, so I've had the pleasure of watching a few dynasties. I love Curry. If you watch his game you'll see a lot of the greats in him. I particularly like the way he gets to the basket in traffic. Bro Jordan was like Muhammad Ali, or a Bruce Lee when it came to his craft. They practice and study until their bodies collapse and mind breaks. Guess what they do after that? Keep going! Start watching WHOLE game playoff series. You'll see. #murderedonbothendsequally
We can't compare Jordan to any player. Jordan is simply a cheat code of basketball.
I love the finger wag at mutumbo when he dunked on him. Like don't even try to challenge me at the rim Lmao.
He did it as the ultimate taunt to Mount Mutumbo. Mutumbo was famous for wagging his finger after he blocked his opponents shots sort of like saying not in my house. Him & MJ were talking in a training room for the all star game that year. They were arguing about whether or not MJ had dunked on him at any point in his career. MJ being MJ made it a point of emphasis to get him in a way that he’d never forget when they met up later that season. He dunked on him that game & used Mutumbo’s own finger wag taunt to sear it in his mind that I got you & now you’ll never forget it lol. Watching those games were great memories witnessing his career play out.
He played like this every game
Yo!!!! As a Warriors fan I definitely have Stef in my own top 10!!! MJ has the #1 spot though!!!! I got see him play both live and always on TV too!! Hello from Northern California!!!! 😁❤✌🏼
I enjoyed the reaction. You are right, this is by far the best Jordan highlight I have seen. That pass you said that he probably missed the layup though, Scottie dunked it. You can see it on Jordan's passing highlights. You should check them out. You will be shocked to see how good a passer Mike was.
Jordan actually only won 1 DPOY but was top 3 in DPOY voting like 6 times. 9 times 1st team all defense (tied for the most)
Guards don't really win DPOY that often.
Gary Payton
Only 2 I think
That's why I say Michael Jordan is and always will be the GOAT NBA player. I guarantee you that no one nowadays could do any of the plays Michael Jordan did. I sure wish that basketball nowadays was like it was back when Jordan was on the court.
To put simply this mixtape, is and was how MJ played night after night. He was always on kill mode and cared more about winning the game than any of the accolades he received during his career. He never took a game off since he felt that if fans paid their money to see him play he played and gave them a memory of what the Greatest to ever lace them up was. Jordan played in a era where if you drove the lane you paid a price for it, not like today's game where the lane is wide open, and fouls are called for breathing to hard on an opposing player. I was blessed to have seen him play in person and it is an experience I will never forget.
If MJ played today with the current rules he would average whatever he would feel like. Some 40 or more I tend to agree with that analogy. Jordan was in his own class.
If stats were the only thing taken into consideration MJ could of arguably been MVP almost every season of his career. This guy is one of one.
He easily should have 10 MVPs ....they just didn't want to give it to him every year
When I hear people say thats not my era and "MY GOAT is.." I take it as admitting Jordan's THE GOAT.
jordan and curry are the only players to change the way the game is played, in my life time..
it hard sometimes to watch the nba now cuz since jordan left it’s like watch bootleg jordan’s ever since ..
like the kid who made this video... he doesn’t understand the game he watches now is that way because the way jordan influenced how the game is played
.. people were amazed back then cuz jordan was so far head of his time.. so far that he would be ahead even had he played now ...
lebron maybe the king but jordan was a basketball god ..
Some players were Really Good at one thing or good at a couple. Jordan was Great at everything he did! Noone has the Heart,Toughness, Will and Ice in his Veins like Jordan.
This man's moves are completely on a different galaxy than everyone else before or since.
No one can do the shit this guy did on the court. Kobe was the closest but that's because he based his entire game off MJ. Lebron ain't got shit on Mike...not close not ever. Show me anyone, since who has moves like this. I'll wait. Anyone who says Lebron better than this doesn't know shit about basketball.
Jordan was the most elegant explosive player i have ever seen...his game is just beautiful!!! The dunks, the crazy layups, the fadeaways, the great defense its insane....dont know how anyone can say lebron is even close to this man
I grew up watching Jordan, I have not seen anything to compare since in any sport.
We dont have footage on 50% of his 1st 4 or 5 years in the league....his most explosive years. A friend recorded (vcr) a game by accident as a kid (were not bulls fans) and we played out a move that seemed to defy gravity over and over again. Tape broke and I've never seen the move again. After years of scouring the internet, found out I wasn't alone....a lot of that early stuff wasn't recorded and/or archived.
Hadn’t seen nothing like MJ back then and I Damn sure haven’t seen nothing like him now
If want to see how aggressive they allowed them to play watch a Jordan vs Piston game.
I lived through MJ. Nothing comes close. The man is singular. Will be the goat forever in all of sport.
I know you compare him to Kawhi because of the mid-range game and the way they defend. He is like Kawhi with superb athleticism, passion to the game, always hungry for winning, killer mentality like no other, out of this world stamina (according to David Robinson - Dream team documentary), fundamentally sound skills, a true competitor, he always find a way to motivate himself and the most important thing is he will not tell you that he is the G.O.A.T. 'cause he just let other people say it. He is your idols idol. Your G.O.A.T's G.O.A.T..
Yep the dunk in traffic against the Heat (12:53) is my all time favourite too - running on fumes!
Always love seeing the 🐐 reaction
I love seeing people react to the greatness of MJ! Subscribed immediately, would love to see you react to more old school players like Magic and Bird
I'm a Magic Johnson fan completely and utterly. Michael Jordan was on a completely different level and carried not only the Bulls but the NBA to places they had never been.
I've never heard Kawhi being compared to Jordan till now 🤣😂
Kahwi's often been compared to Wizards Jordan 🤷
@@jennyarriola324 haha yeah sure
MJ GREATEST OF ALL TIME🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
This how a fan reacts to a Jordan highlights
When Jordan crosses over a guy like Joe Dumars
Other fans: Jordan is crossing over Joe Dumars who is one of the best defenders in the league.
Lebron fans: Jordan is just crossed over a nobody. Who is that guy?
Jordan wasnt ahead of his time, he was timeless. He would dominate any player and every era! Thats why he is the greatest of all time.
He is the only player that I have seen with no weakness.
I was born in 1980 I know every basketball player I didn’t see play. I was student of the game and still is.
No matter where you were. You came home and watched ESPN for M.J.s highlights. Expecting to see something spectacular. EVERY, and I mean EVERY game night he came to play. Even after gambling ALL night and no sleep or 18 holes of golf before a game he was dynamite!!! Iam ever so greatfull that WE who seen him in his Era can bear witness to his Greatness.
Bro I tell everybody that my friends and I used to stay up to watch ESPN highlights every night to see what MJ would do. Thanks for sharing this. That was a MAGICAL era in our life that just made people like us happy. Any time I feel down, I could always think about things like this and cheer up.
@@colegautreau4760 I'm with you bro
[Every time I see Michael Jordan play,] I just keep thinking about this, but I haven't seen anyone mention it yet:
If you want to win a baseball game, you call Mariano Rivera.
If you want to win a basketball game, you call Michael Jordan.
It's that [effing] simple.
I was lucky enough to see him play live he was and always will be the GOAT when have you ever seen a player win the best defensive award along with a scoring title in the same season Jordan was absolutely dominate at both ends of the floor and his swagger is unmatched by anyone I've ever seen step on to the hardwood floor i mean he could create so much room and hit fadaways shooting over his right or left shoulder and make it look easy I was a starting point guard in school and I can tell you that is so hard its no joke and he made everything look so easy and Flawless
“I would never have called him the greatest player I'd ever seen if I didn't mean it,” Bird told The Boston Globe. “It's just God disguised as Michael Jordan.”
loved how you mentioned the NBA for giving us this mixtape, u prolly the 1st out of 40+ reaction i ve seen to this clip
8:22
This lay up is the greatest lay up ever. It never gets its due. He is never out of control. He muscled when muscling was necessary. He finessed when finesse would do. He yoked on EVERYONE.
Then, there's this lay up. The improv and body control, weird center of gravity...? Double move in the air to lay out passed the defenders reach, reverse, bank off the board...and get back on D' like this is what you do?! Like it's just another Tuesday for you?!
It likely was. Imagine your tv station getting rich on a random Tuesday just because you showed Jordan's games! Say "hi" WGN.
I love the surprise on the youngins faces when they actually see a glimpse of what MJ was really like. The video still doesn't do him justice if you can believe that, you had to see him live to fully appreciate his game. This coming from a die hard knicks fan, Jordan is the GOAT in all sports, nobody has ever been that good at any sport ever, period.
