If you never watch him play, you just don't know. This dude was amazing. Honestly the comparison isn't even close.
Facts pure facts 💯 👏
I watched hundreds of MJ's games. Nobody except for Kobe even belongs in the vicinity of this debate. But even having said that, there is no debate. MJ is the GOAT. Everyone else is just jockeying for second.

Yassssss. Kobe was the closest thing to MJ
@@petme79 agreed. Kobe seems to get lost in that discussion - the last of the true killers (Bird, Magic, MJ, Kobe)
Jordan’s most impressive feat in my opinion is his 8 year stretch of not losing three games in a row. That’s insane
Even the one about him playing all 82 games 9 times and one of them being in the wizards at his old age.
Conversely LeBron missed more than that many games in the playoffs over an ingrown toenail in a shorter period of time. Also took him nearly twice as long to get the same number of points and let's not talk about playing a whole game. Bro. Fans do t get that he would be in a better position when talking about how great he is if they stop making comparisons where there isn't one.
@@jenniferumagat2528 with the flu or not.
That is insane! Thanks for the info. Gotta add that to the Goat debate
@Trina Lewis right, people always talk about LeBron amd his longetivity but his longetivity in itself is of no value to any team if he's not playing and participating at that level. Real goat convo players like Larry bird played with a broken orbital socket and still finished the game amd made the game winning shot.
The creativity, the hang time, the handles, the defense, the dominance, the DAWG, the passing, the vertical... THE Goat
@isessogroup, u dammmmn right
The fade away, the mentality
@@fefontana ice cold blooded. even the stars of this generation whine too much. Like KG said they dont get a call and dont get back on defense to cry. During GOAT era they would catch an elbow to the back of the head standing there...

Jordan's era was brutal. The fouls were real, defense was a thing, no flops, and traveling existed.
yeah because the standards during MJ time was LOW, Jordans opponents, mostly 80% of the NBA teams would not make the nBA team today. Just look at the international players back then, they were carpenters . MJ would get the highlight every game because he was above everyone else, in todays game he will just be a more athletic deMar Derozan. Jordans era in the late 80 and 90s were the 2nd WEAKEST ever!. all physical LOW SKILL and IQ
I still carry them bruises on my body, and I was only watching it on tv.
That 80-90 era, that was way tougher than todays NFL.
This cannot be stated enough, it was a brutally rough, hard defensive era.
All Facts
So true
You know MJ lead the league in scoring 10 times and made All-Defensive 1st team 9 times. That means for 9 seasons he was the best offensive AND the best defensive player on the floor. Everyone was so focused on his scoring that people forget how great of a defender he was
He is also the only player to win the scoring title and def player of the year, in the same year.
@@Dave_Langer That same year he was DPOY, MVP, All-Star MVP, Slam Dunk champion, 1st Team All-NBA and 1st Def Team, Scoring Champ and lead the NBA in steals. I say it again, that is 1 season. No one comes close, not even Kobe much more Lebron.
@@bisayastyle9324 Exactly.
@@bisayastyle9324 That's the hard truth people don't want to hear.. MJ is the best and its by a large margin
He should have had more awards. People got sick of voting for him.
Michael Jordan will always be the World's Best Basketball Player. There is No One Else that Comes even CLOSE to Michael Jordan
Yes I agree, he is the World's Best Basketball Player! Michael is much more humble and LeBron is more of a big mouth. However, I feel that LeBron was the top player in the 2010's and 2020's. But MJ is the Greatest Player of All-Time. He outworked LeBron in the Scoring Titles 10-1, meanwhile, LeBron is going on his 21st season and already has more total points then MJ and every other basketball player. Michael hasn't played anywhere near as many games or seasons. If I had to pick a Top 5, it would go like this:
#5) Magic Johnson
#4) Kobe Bryant
#3) Larry Bird
#2) LeBron James
#1) Michael Jordan
False
@@BouchIsOnTheLoose702 Bird was amazing but no way i'd take him over kobe.
Kobe 05-06 was the closest we’ve seen, he just needed some damn help on those teams. Lakers wasted his best years but even still he gave the Suns a run for their money.
Only 2 come close to me..Kobe, magic. Other players back then were bad ass too...damn Shaq when he first cane around was a badass...Barkley..Larry Johnson, pipen was bad ass too. I love basketball back in the day.
During the dark days in Africa where we had no access to TVs or Internet, but we knew that there is a man called Michael Jordan who was doing miracles in basket ball in USA. He is by far the GOAT.
It's not an opinion. I saw Magic, Bird, Kobe, Lebron, MJ....... playing, and there is no question who is the greatest. The impact he had on the game was insane. Just for example, I live in Germany, Basketball isn't a big thing here. But me and my friends met at 1am in the morning at my place and watched him play during the whole night. School or work next day? I don't care, Mike is playing. That's how it was for me. He made the NBA and Basketball a world wide thing.
so true, he made me a young football fan into a basketball fan too. But i only watch him and the bulls, when they broke up (left for other teams/retired), the basketball fan in me died.
Emerging media is responsible for most of his impact but i agree no pne better.
MJ is the GOAT. But I think Bird and Magi made basketball cool. that rivalry along with some other players (Dr J, Kareem, Hakeem, Worthy, etc) made the NBA legit competition of the NFL. The next phase MJ, Barkley, Shaq, etc continued the legacy. But something happened and now the NBA is an after thought. That alone should show why Lebron is not the GOAT. So many do not care about the NBA or to see Lebron play. Everyone was watching the NBA and Jordan back in the day.
Seriously. All these kids say that we just like Michael because we got to watch him play his career…… Like we’re sleeping on LeBron or we quit watching basketball lol.
@@hotcheeto8814 Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. LOL
Jordan did things on the court that modern ballers wish they could do… TRUE GOAT 🐐
What!?!?!?!?! Shit kyrie does that. Thing was nobody...NOBODY was doing anything like that back then. Dr. J was the closest then Clyde Drexler. Jordan at the time was a generational player.
Kyrie?! Yeah you obviously are a youngen

@@raymonerush6663 47🤣😂🤦🏽♂️ stop duh cap🥴🥴🥴
@@raymonerush6663 Jordan was throwing down facials on 7 footers regularly.
Those hands and his insane vert separated him from everyone else.
Young MJ was built like a Cat.
I had the privilege of living in Chicago and going to many Bulls games in the 90’s during the double 3-peat. For me, IMHO, Michael Jeffrey Jordan was the most incredible athlete that I’ve ever seen play the game! He had every asset and seemingly no liabilities. He could do anything and everything with a basketball AND was absolutely beautiful while doing it. He’s the definition of poetry in motion. MJ’s will to win was second to none! He thrived in the 4th quarter of close games and he loved the pressure of those moments. He would not be denied when a championship was at stake and he could not be stopped! Also, the physicality of the game during MJ’s days was off the hook! He was hit & pushed on a multitude of his shots but that type of contact was legal back then. MJ was never the biggest dude on the court but he was BEAST MODE all the time - strong & athletic with an agile, liquid body. Kobe picked the right person to model his game after. The MAN was UNDEFEATED in the NBA Finals during the most physical era In basketball (IMHO). He played both ends of the floor like he was possessed. His passion, determination, leadership, intelligence, heart, skills, and work ethic are LEGENDARY! He is and always will be my G.O.A.T.!!!! 👑🐐🏀🔥❤️🤩
Comment touches on a lot. It was a really great time to be alive and watching this unfold in real time. MJ was really just.. unbelievable. Said above, but he had no liabilities. He was A+ at every single aspect of the game.
Well said
Facts my guy, great era to watch
I agree 💯
I never saw him in person, but when we got cable, we also got WGN Chicago which seemed to carry most of the Bulls games. My sister and I became the biggest Jordan fans and were freaking out when they swept the Pistons en route to their first title
I WAS A TEENAGER WHEN I WATCHED EVERY GAME THAT MICHAEL EVER PLAYED IN. FROM 91-98. M.J. WAS A GOD!! PERIOD!! KOBE WAS AS CLOSE AS YOU'RE GONNA GET. LEBRON WASN'T BETTER THAN KOBE. NO ONE WILL EVER NEVER BE LIKE MICHAEL JORDAN!!
Something that gets overlooked when it comes to Jordan is the fact that he was poetry in motion with the basketball. His ball and body control was on another level. I don't even consistently see that with superstars today.
Kobe was the closest one to MJ
Second to none bro.
God tier fluidity
To be fair, no one in ANY era has really done it quite like Jordan in that aspect. He’s 1 of 1 as far I’m concerned.
Yes
Call me weird but I get all choked up when I watch these MJ videos. I miss that era and really I consider myself lucky to have been one of the fans who was living a sports fan’s dream. I miss you MJ, Scottie, Rodman, Harper, Tony kukoc, Steve Kurt, and yes even bill Winnington.
Same Here 😢🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I feel exactly the same way. I feel grateful to have been a fan in those years, watching every second of those finals games.
Same❤
Guess Luc Longley don't get his lol
Look we were in the golden era of sports, music, movies, video games, you name it. The 90s was an amazing era to be young. And society wasn’t poisoned by social media yet. These kids don’t have a clue of what they missed and it saddens me.
Watching MJ live was an event you never wanted to miss. MJ was the GOAT.
I've watched him play since the Carolina days and these highlights are awesome! Brings back soooo many memories watching him live in action! These highlights are a by product of what we saw live! There were more exiting highlights but damn....these highlights are enough to someone that never watched him and can say he is the greatest! There's no way Lebron can touch the stuff MJ did in gametime
If you weren't there to 👀 see it in real life you can't even imagine.. The level of competition was legendary. MJ perfected and mastered destroying that competition.. 🐐🔥#23
I saw when he played against the Knicks at the garden in the 80s, had a 40 point game and the bulls beat them. He was unstoppable. Damn i must have been 13 back then.
It was great enough from the tv.
I saw it and LeBron is better
@@thereal7136 stop lying
@@thereal7136 🤡😂
He played like this every game. Every game!!! It was amazing!! All time offense All time defense.
Yeah he did, and If you missed it, you missed everything! Dude was working through some demons or was mad at something every time he stepped on the court, we just never figured out what was going on with MJ...boy was on some other shyt, entirely. LOL.
I watched his whole career. I knew we would never see anything like that again. Beyond special.
No weakness in his game PLUS Killer instinct. THE GOAT
I can only put it like this: My Dad passed in 05' at 61 years old. He was a baseball guy. Never cared, watched, or even dribbled a basketball. BUT, when you heard the Chicago Bulls were going to be on TV, you watched. It was an event back then. Air Jordan and the Bulls was prime time must see, and it didn't matter who you were.
YEP. I hate basketball. But when Jordon was on YOU watched. Like when Bo Jackson was playing baseball or even football. Him Herchal Walker. These players you watched. They never TOTTED their own HORN like LeBron. Hate that guy. LOVE Shaq Larry Byrd. But LeBron can kiss my BUTT
My Father was a workaholic but he made it home to see the Bulls play featuring Michael Jordan. Loved it.
My dad stopped watching nba when Jordan retired
Facts
A Mercedes built in the 80s and 90s was built solid just like MJ
MJ "The GOAT" period. At 71 years of age I grew watching all the greats. Even to the present and MJ was insanely great. Many that played against him believed he wasn't really human! Like I said "The GOAT".
I don't think he's entirely human either.
I'm 47 so I didn't see guys before Jordan. Even Bird and Magic started before I was old enough but I was lucky to have Chicago Sports Channel on a satellite dish. When I was 10 I started watching the Bulls and ai was hooked. From then on I saw almost every game of Jordan's career and don't believe I'll ever see another player like him. Name another player who was a feared and respected as Jordan? It's not possible.
@@vCLOWNSHOESv WGN...here. MJ and the Bulls were can't miss TV.
@@vCLOWNSHOESv I can only think of Kobe being closest to Jordan.
@@zeykshadeJohnny Kerr was my favorite and Marv Albert on network. Yesss!
MJ is the best in the air improvisor I have seen. His reverses and all that are next level. The most under appreciated aspect of his game by younger fans is his defense. He crushed it on both sides of the ball.
Jordan was just so smooth and made it look so easy. You watched him play and new he legit could do whatever he wanted.
I get chills watching these highlights as I grew up in the late 80's & 90's, watching NBA Inside Stuff on the weekend, then watched MJ against the Knicks, Caveliers or Pacers. Jordan was and will always be the GOAT because of his competitive nature & will to win. The dude was on another level and totally changed the game for everyone going forward.
Bulls Vs Blazers
Sega Genesis
Bulls Vs Celtics
Utah Jazz
Sonics
Yessir Southside chicago was a place like none other
Lebron himself does too 😂🤣😂
We have a recency bias. People forget or do not know that Jordan competed during the time where the east was a beast. When Jordan came back, he went against the Magic with a prime Shaq, Penny, Nick Anderson, Scott, Horace Grant, and Scot Syles.
MJ, no doubt about it. There will never be another player like him.
What younger people need to realize is that basketball was a niche sport till Jordan. He made it popular worldwide. Very few here in New Zealand were watching and playing basketball regularly till round 92, 93.
It's not just the amazing dunks, moves , big shots, it's the grace and poise while playing a physically demanding sport. He made the game beautiful.
Michael Jordan brought the NBA to the world. There were 3v3 tourney's everywhere because of him and how popular he made basketball. Everyone wanted to be like Mike. Everyone.
What I loved most about MJ was that, as he aged, he realized he was not going to be the best athlete forever. He started to develop his fadeaway. He developed great feet work and worked hard in his post up game. He never cheated his fans. He gave every thing to the game.
Mid game was raw
Didn’t even think about that but that’s facts. He wizards game involved a lot of that once he started slowly down but the man still had some hot games.
Facts, his game evolved as he aged and he never lost the fever.
yes, actually thats the time he became even more deadlier
He literally talked about how he played every night because there were people who bought tickets with the hope of seeing him just once in their life. It’s also why he always dressed so immaculately. The guy was so competitive that he practically invented the concept of a player’s personal brand.
MJ, hands down....is the GOAT. He constantly attacked on both ends of the court. The ultimate competitor. Its rare that someone with that much talent, worked at getting everything out of his abilities.
watching him live was ludicrous. MJ is and always will be the G..O.A.T. ..the world was not ready for Michael at the 1984 Olympics
It's exciting to watch MJ play. The skills, the creativity, the fun, the mentality.
I was witness to the greatest era of Basketball. Thank you Mr. MJ. #GOAT
Dude for real! I miss the old nba
Jordan was known world wide. His energy pulled everyone towards him, regardless if you fallowed basketball or not. Every Kid wanted be like Mike. GOAT
He was and continues to be the most famous and popular athlete in the world…which is absolutely insane. Everyone around the world wears Jordan brand so you pretty much can’t go anywhere on earth without seeing a MJ logo on something. No athlete has ever come close to his level of fame. Easily the GOAT.
@@axe2grind244 and what's even crazier about that, is he became that popular before social media was a thing and when the internet wasn't widely available to most, pure insanity lol
@@TheJaBuLs 100% true. Most homes had limited tv channels, most homes didn’t even have internet access yet lol.
MJ was the most dominant competitor / leader I’ve over seen. The 90’s was 🔥
That play aroun 6:16
.... one of the most dominant things ive ever seen. 2 seconds left. REACHES across half the court and grabs the ball with his giant mitts like he's a first baseman, then IMMEDIATELY jacks up the 40 ft 3pt at the buzzer. GOAT
The contact during his shots. It's crazy how strong he was while in the air. No flopping for his airness
Imagine what he’d do to the players of today 😮.
He is too much of a man to do that.
Also I'm not seeing him pushing or elbowing people out of his way, just pure dancing around
Exactly. This is what people don't understand. He made post shots layups 3s with not just one person giving contact but a whole team. None of these current players can do this on a regular basis.
This is why Jordan is the goat. Kobe is a distant second . Bron isn't even top 10. Bron is a legend just not top 10
Getting double and triple teamed and fouled. Still throwing it down
Bron has the greatest longevity of all time, and because of this, he'll have the most totals. The greatest player though, is Michael Jordan. Jordan is #1 in just about every analytical route. He has the most accomplishments (especially considering he only played 13 full seasons).
You right Jordan was a different breed. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it 🙏
Longevity is also a factor in Career pts but you have to be a superstar level with 38+ average minute of playing time
karl Malone is ahead to MJ in scoring list at no.3 without championship ring. ( 18th season as a Utah jazz player) So is he a better player than MJ?
This is accurate. LeBron has played at a high level for a very long time and there's a lot to be said for that, but MJ had the will and the skill. He's the GOAT.
@@nunyabusiness7927 But, if you compare the number of games they played, you find one reason for Lebron lasting so long. He played all 82 regular games just once in his career, Mike did it 9 times. Also the physicality of the game made players last a shorter time back then.
Jordan was on a different level than every athlete in his time. And today. People talk about how Floppy is bigger and stronger. Magic said Michael was the strongest athlete he’d ever seen. Not talking about just basketball. Bobby Knight said Jordan was the best basketball player and athlete he’d ever seen. And that was in 1984. There aren’t any players today that compare to MJ. Kobe took the right route and had a lot of the talent but still wasn’t MJ. RIP Kobe.
You also got to remember: He finally retired bc he felt he did everything he wanted to do, and was on top. Also, his Nike deal is still historic bc he's still getting paid from that deal. Every pair of Jordans sold (don't matter the number, issue, year), he still gets a cut.
Mike was sick these clips are good but the energy he created in a game was unbelievable he was half man half amazing LeBron could never ever ever
All his dunks just looked so powerful and graceful. The way he moved his legs during dunks just added to the beauty
IKR when I watch LeBron I think man what a crazy good athlete/basketball player but when I watch certain guys like MJ play basketball pr Patrick Mahomes play football its like youre watching an alien...Giannis is like that too to be his height Playing the way he does
Facts bro mj can fly literally 🔥
Hell yeah he moved so gracefully in the air like he had all the time in the world ! Lol he's a legend !
Haha yeah. It was more difficult to dunk back in the days, IMO, because there wasnt defensive 3 seconds, which means anyone can stay in the paint to guard anyone who tries to slash to the basket. Today, nobody can stay in the paint for more than 3 seconds. People still can dunk these days but I think it is more impressive when Jordan dunks, even when there’s 2,3, or 4 people trying to stop him.
Amen to that…
MJs ball control is next level his all around game is just so strong period
Michael is not just the best NBA player of all time, he is the best sportsman of all time.
I get the chills watching the bulls starting line up to this day. Grew up in the 90s as a bulls fan, yet to see anything in sports even come close to Jordan’s era!
Respect! the 90s was a golden era for bball and hip hop!
You mean rock?
@@pepedahepe2258That too
For everything bruh. For everything.
GOAT season. 1987-88. MJ won MVP, DPOY, scoring title, slam dunk championship, and all star game MVP. You will never ever see anything like that again.
I lived and watched MJ AND The BULLS in the 90s every game was a highlight.
When his father was killed and he retired I remember it feeling like the entire city of Chicago was in mourning. But when he unretired and it was the day of his first game back it literally was like a national holiday in Chicago. My dad left work early that day so he wouldn’t miss the game. He was, is, and forever the GOAT.
2 decades after retirement and jordan is still inspiring and impressing fans.
Beyond the fact MJ had all the moves, all the airtime, and just was consistent, add to all of these beautiful shots the fact alot of them were clutch....in other words, he never choked under pressure. GOAT all day .
look at his shooting percentage in the clutch and change your comment
I keep seeing these reaction videos of Michael Jordan I have to say I miss those days I grew up watching every game that the Chicago Bulls had on NBC it was an awesome time probably won't ever see it like that again. MJ was definitely a rock star. I know people talk about Lebron and Kobe today but back then was a different time.
BRO!! That music! It gives me goosebumps to this day thinking back on it. The voices of Marv Albert, Mike Fratello, Ahmad Rashad are all burned into my memory forever. That NBA on NBC era was magical. Every year I remember it always kicked off on Christmas Day. Man not to be “that guy”…but shit was so much better back then. The world feels so bloated and fake and forced now. That was an authentic experience then. Idk. I’m probably just getting old but it feels so much more real and meaningful.
@@TheRagnarok5000 I totally agree with everything you said. The 90s was a great time to be a sports fan.
It's not just about his performance on the court; we have to recognize all the facets that make Michael Jordan the legend he is. It's like analyzing each ingredient that collectively shapes his legacy.
1000%. I left a comment basically saying that same thing. He became a culture in and of himself. That’s insane to think about. And it was organic, not forced or propped up or artificially inflated. He was a legitimate and authentic cultural event. As an ATHLETE. That’s exclusive company. You’re really only talking Babe Ruth and Ali standing there with him, and some have compelling arguments why even they may even be left looking UP at him.
Michael Jordan will always be the OG! Original GOAT! His skills were a sight to behold. When he played everyone stopped and watched. He always had class! He will always be the best!
Can you imagine if he was playing like that in this era? Ja Morant said he would take him 😂😂 Morant is not an defensive player. Stats tells it all 👍🏿
@duant and morant can't even go to finals 😁
@@duanemcfadden8878 Ja is a very talented and explosive player...but if Ja at this age went 1:1 w/ MJ at any stage of his Bulls career, Ja might have to scale back his irrational confidence. As in...Ja has no shot. Might win a couple games out of a hundred. I'd say that even if Ja were an all-defensive team guy along with his offense...but as you said, Ja's defense is...not a strength. And MJ was superb defensive player...there'd be some 5-0 and 5-1 games in there, more than a few.
@@jimsibley1651 I agree with you 💯 lol 😂😂😂
After almost 30 years it's still exciting to watch!
Thing is, these highlights don’t even give a fraction of his work. The ridiculous amounts of creativity he had was mindblowing. Besides that, his sheer heart and determination on BOTH ENDS of that court was beyond anyone that I’ve seen. I mean come on….. the guy was the BEST offensive player and the BEST defensive player in the same season at one point. He played nearly every single game every darn season. No excuses. MJ is by FAR the greatest player to ever play this game.
One thing many people forget is that he was also great at defense, both skill and incredible heart/hussle. Rare these days.
Holy shit. This video gives me chills. MJ would LIGHT IT UP in 2023. New easier defense rules add 10ppg.
If the real bulls played in todays games they would put 150 ppg todays games are a joke
He’d average 45. Be at least 40% from 3
More like 12
@@billypaxton9295 OK.. That's pretty exact.. close enough 😅
People either just were not present during MJ's time, or they've forgotten about that time. But it was f'ing magical! The things he did, the moments he created, and the overall atmosphere he brought about is unparalleled in sports history. Period. We who were present, were watching a legend in the making, and we knew it. MJ was the single most recognizable person in the entire world. Watching clips and documentaries cannot convey the talent and impact he had in multiple industries. Not just basketball. Quite simply, you had to be there to understand. I don't see anyone else ever becoming what Michael Jordan became.
People compare MJ to anyone they want, Kobe, Lebron, whoever. There is no comparison. None of them would be able to withstand Jordans perseverance and tenacity. Even if they could keep up with MJ for a minute, he will ultimately overwhelm them and dominate every time.
Agree with everything you said except the "single most recognizable person in the entire world" part, that will be the other MJ... Michael Jackson!!
@@Bodyhealthsoul 💯💯💯
There will never be any comparison. The game changed so much that you will never see this type of " Ballin" in the NBA again! He is the greatest, the GOAT.... and that is all!
I’m 56… I had the Pleasure of seeing MJ from playground,toHigh School,To College,then his Pro career and to this dayI am still in awe of his skill.Dr J was everybody’s favorite player back then no one was better until #23 came along and took it higher.
No matter how awesome these videos make this era of basketball look, it was even better being in the arena live. Nobody had smartphones - all eyes on the court.
A+ Offense, defense, Athleticism, I.Q and highest game-winning % in NBA history with an obsessive will to win..The guy was a damn nightmare to play against. ..He'd destroy today's NBA, with ease.

Watching MJ live was special. You knew you were witnessing the epitome of greatness. Jordan is the ultimate Alpha.
How can you watch this so calmly. I caught my self yelling several times. MJ is no doubt the GOAT! OMG 😱
The other thing people forget about is Jordan played in a much more physical era and never took games off. He played as many minutes as he could. I was honored to have him as a childhood hero.
Facts, it’s a completely different game. I don’t see kids stopping everything to watch Bron play. The entire HOOD would come together for every MJ game we could.
@@tradesmith_yt it was a different time as well. You didn't have nearly as many distractions as you do today plus you couldn't just teevo the game or jump on internet to watch it like u can now. If you missed the game back then you had to wait til SC highlights.
WAY WAY harder to score too
He even played a championship game with the flu, and was still able to outshine some players.
I think the biggest difference between Jordan and other stars who came before and after him is his ability to find the net. Bro can always finish. From deep, mid, close, reverse, in traffic, falling, on the baseline, it doesn't matter. His ability to read the defense and exploit even the smallest window for himself then to convert is just, MASTERY. Lebron, Kobe are legends in the game but Jordan mastered it.
The goat, top MVP winner stacked deck beater, killer instinct, game elevator 2- 3-peats, hang time unreal, dunked on the best in the game to include your boy, shut down anyone who talked trash to him, and to date has no rival in his accomplishments. That's what I call THE GOAT!!!!!🎉❤😅
It's easier to score today. There are no big men crowding the paint. Great reaction. Check out Jordan "one of the best defenders ever" You will see why he is the Goat and most spectacular..
I agree is definitely a different league. It seems like is more entertainment now. High scoring games, shooting from damn near half is crazy. I got you ill check it out, Thanks for watching I appreciate it 🙏
@@onejayp to counter thar, it's similar to football in tge sense, higher scoring doesn't always mean more entertaining. 3 pointers aren't a big deal anymore..they used to be momentum crushers. Buckets had meaning!
@@joesmith5097 Yea I understand what you mean, I agree.
Most people and especially young people don't understand that he was a better defender than scorer. Another great highlight is Larry Bird passing clips. He was a genius.
@@onejayp : My man..
I watched all Jordan's games damn near and I promise you he's the GOAT 🐐🙏🏾
Just watch his resume he never lost a tournament and finals either that's out of this world that's only his numbers but what's about his style ? His incredible plays ? It's just ridiculous compare him to any other player
facts
Jordan is the GOAT. His court awareness, his relation with the rim, his ability to control his airspace, with the video game double jump. He used the rim as an obstacle to defense. His spiderman grip to release the ball, when all defenders were descending. Lebron and Kobe grew up, wanting to be him.
MJ was an artist, perfectionist and the most determined. The GOAT.
MJ literally created almost every move in basketball that people still using to this day! WILL ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
hes not tony hawk this isnt a thing sorry
@@jamespotter4571 I think you mean Rodney Mullen...
the fact is that MJ played a different kind of basketball, it was pure magic, his skill and technique were simply different, for me no player compares with him, MJ is without a doubt the 🐐
larry bird ate jordans lunch
The 80-90's basketball was unreal!
Jordan is his own class of greatness. No one can reach that level.
MJ did something spectacular EVERY SINGLE GAME. It was a great time to be alive.
Yup.. I so cherish these moments!! I was in my prime! At the bar and cheering for MJ.. After the game all the chicks are all smile ( most of them MJ fan) ., one big happy fanclub for the rest of the night!! 😇if u know wada mean✨💫!!Wheeww what a great time it was to be alive!! 🥳🥳💥
amen
Early June, school is almost over, you’re outside playing hockey and your dad yells “The NBA Finals are on!”, you and your buddies drop your sticks and run in to watch MJ and the crew. Only Jordan could get kids from Buffalo captivated about basketball like that. It really was a great time to be alive.
Bro ... sometimes I think about how fortunate I am to have witnessed all of this. He was incredible to watch.
What we're doing right now is what's going to be done hundreds of years from now. Watching MJ. People were born to do certain things and excel at them. He is top tier and the benchmark of exactly that. The beauty of the art and skill he shared with the world, as an individual, is arguably unparalleled and will last for ages. To me, there is no argument. Perfection personified. If there was ever something to emulate as perfection and wonderment in sports, it will always be MJ at the top of the list. Now think, what futuristically (futuristically mind you) can you reasonably imagine will top all of the highlight videos and accomplishments from this man over the past decades. Not saying that it won't happen, but I haven't felt confident in seeing anything close, with the exception of Kobe. And guess what blueprint Kobe used for his career? Simplistically, if you had to look at video highlights and compare MJ's to others, regardless of era, what would honestly give you the most excitement and desire to resemble as a basketball player? Now, or a thousand years from now? EXACTLY!!! MJ DA GOAT! Now... how long ago was it that he played compared to the other player y'all be talking about? Huh? I don't see myself wanting to be like 'Bron', I would always want to be like "Mike". SHUT IT DOWN!
This is the greatest basketball player ever to play the game ...Black Jesus
Dude! I got madd respect for you. You have just said out loud, what I’ve been arguing with my friends about for the last 10 years. First, I’ve never heard someone say it out loud, that Kobe’s game was patented after Jordan’s. He clearly took all the moves, walk, mannerisms, and even the tongue out during the game. Now, I will say that none of that takes away from his greatness and accolades, because he still had to play the game, and no one can deny that he went hard every game. Also, King James is the goat…..but, OF THIS ERA. He has garnered crazy respect for what he has brought to the game of today but JORDEN IS TRULY THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. I’ve never been a fan of Kobe or James but, I’ve absolutely have been a fan on MJ every since he entered the league and he will always be my number one of the past, present, and future.
I was a teen during the 90s. I have never seen a player that was brilliant at everything. Dribbling, passing, shooting from anywhere, dunking, blocking, steals. He was literally good at everything. He's a multi-generational talent. We still haven't seen anyone get close to this. One day we will see someone better because that is just how it is but it will be a long time before we do.
He was like Spiderman superhero
Only Kobe
Kobe was really good. I just don’t think he was as close to Jordan as ppl say. I mean Jordan came into the league and was already a top 5 player on day one. By the next year he was the best in the league. His weakness was his leadership skills. The gap between Jordan and the next best player is huge. I want to add something: I don’t like Michael Jordan. But I have to give him his due.
@@moxypirate
Jordan entered the league after college at age 22. Kobe was recruited when he was 17 and signed at 18. When kobe was 22, he was averaging 30ppg against San Antonio in the playoffs! While having to share the ball with Shaq! These are basic facts you would know if you watched NBA in the 90s and 2000s. You're comparing apples and oranges
@@stevencoardvenice Jordan entered the league at 21 and had a PER of nearly 26. Kobe’s PER did not surpass 26 until he was 24. Jordan’s second year in the league at age 22; he had a PER of nearly 28. Kobe only had one year in the league where he had a PER higher and it was in his prime at age 27. Jordan had a PER above 29 for the next 7 consecutive years and above 31 for 4 of them.
Jordan hands down probably the greatest man to ever lace up a pair of sneakers.and go hard in the paint.
I can watch this all day and never get tired of watching Mj highlights
The GOAT stands for Greatest Of All Time, not the greatest for 10 years....IN case you youngsters don't get the acronym.
I feel like after MJ. Every good basketball player after him, were like embers and parts of MJ's talent that was disbursed into tiny particles.
Exactly every great player today got some MJ moves and but no one got it all.Kobe came the closest but still lacking of some Jordan athleticism and efficiency
You nailed it✌️
Yes, to be fair i can see a little bit of dr. J in MJ too.
Kobe had all of MJ moves and more.What makes MJ the goat is not just his moves and fundamentals.His hand size is unreal and his hang time on dunks and lay ups nobody ever in life even today can do that,show me 😂
There are people who can jump higher but nobody can hang in the air like that even to this day
I try and watch this video once a month. Jordan was a god amongst men!
No one's better than Michael Jordan
Everything bout this era of basketball is so nostalgic to me. MJ floating, Pat Riley's slick hair, Marv Albert's "YYESS", The NBA on NBC logo n theme song, hard fouls, real fast breaks where they go to the bucket instead the 3pt line. Bring it back!!
hehe, NBA on NBC always had the really good games on the weekend. The Lakers vs Celtics during the NBA on NBC era was so good.
As a Chicago native, born I'm the 80's and raised in the 90's, the Bulls and MJ was like a watching a Rockstar in their prime giving you the best music you ever heard. MJ was literally "must see tv" for everyone in Chicago every night, no cap!
Just imagine this one player doing something new every night that you never seen him do before bro, his game never got old.
This is why people who had the privilege to watch the MJ live, revere him as the GOAT.
Dope reaction my guy😎
Not only in Chicago. I'm from Germany and me and my friends sat whole nights in front of the tv, just to see him play. School or work next day? I DON'T CARE! Mike is playing. He made the NBA and basketball a world wide thing.
Chi- town in tha house!!!
Not only in Chicago. Born and raised in Detroit. MJ is the best period. end of discussion. The Bad Boy Pistons would run Lebron out of the gym crying. MJ took it, owned it, and gave it back.
whenever Sirius plays, it still bring chills. "andddddddddd nowwwwwwww!!!!"
Wow you were born just in time and in place.
What this doesn’t show is Jordan being consistently one of the best defensive players in the league. 100% effort on both ends of the floor.
I love the fact that when he got older, he went from wanting to dunk on everyone all the time, to doing that some of the time, but more of a midrange assassin. MJ was nuts. I'm from Southern Africa originally and even in the 90s in a country that just abolished apartheid, even we knew who MJ was and watched him. That's the impact that man had on the world. MJ will always be my GOAT for that reason, but I get by people choose LeBron, he's a phenom.
Youngster, I'm glad you are appreciating this. Trust me, we got to see this every night . What great era that was
Not only was Jordan aggressive, he scared the sh*t out of other guys on other teams with his eyes and his demeanor and the attitude he had and he also could back it up
I think he scared the shit out of his own teammates at times too!
For me Michael Jordan is a legend in the game of basketball,greatest of all time period😁😁😁
Jordan will always be the goat man had it all everything you’d want including humbleness
I'm 51 and enjoyed your objective production and commentary. In my opinion MJ is the goat because he never cheated the fans, like never. He played 82 games practically every season, exerting max effort. I knew parent were saving up there money to invest in the opportunity for their family to see him. He said he never wanted to leave without a show, without highlights and memories. When he didn't play 82, he still gave 80-81 games.
Additionally, it was such a treat to fans for a star of his magnitude to compete in the dunk contest. He risked embarrassment, damaging his image and brand...however he went out and showed out, nailing every dunk the first time. Kobe had MJs supreme confidence and self belief. Not a Bron hater but I've seen him shrivel in big moments, quit on the court, not give his all on defense, load manage etc... MJ played most of his games, had as high if not higher minutes played than LeBron and Kobe. MJ played harder on defense during his older Wizards years than Lebron has most of his season.
And for the same team!
Best post. Can’t say it any better. LBJ is great but the facts show he is not goat. His game has many flaws, he is not a great shooter and he is not great defensively. LBJ is the greatest jack of all trades but master of none. MJ was also a jack of all trades but he mastered most of them. The ones that won you chips he mastered. Defense, offense, mental toughness, leader, shooting and scoring, loyalty to team and teammates, blocks, steals and a host of other intangibles.
Brons greatness is his longevity. Goat at that even though there is evidence of it being aided allegedly. He is not great at shooting, defense, loyalty to team and teammates, not mentally tough, not a great leader on both ends of court, and makes excuses for his failures and blames teammates and coaches.
There is no contest between these two. Biggest mistake Lebron and his media shill pals made was starting the media brainwashing 13 years ago about Bron being better than MJ. All that did was expose his flaws more than they were.
@@snakebitten6967 Bingo! Just the other night against Philly, Russ got killed by media and fans. But real ones like us actually saw what transpired. On defense, Russ picked up Embiid, played stout---Embiid could not back him down, he got a hand in Embiid face on the shot---good contest, Russ then went in and secured the rebound, as Russ came up court all Lakers were standing upright not moving not cutting. So Russ had to exert more energy and drive hard to the hole, he just didn't have the legs when he got there...noone called time out. Bron stood there, not making himself a target for Russ. Go back and watch the sequence.
@@masculinitymatters9030 that's cause LeBron isn't playing to win and hasn't for a few years. I noticed halfway through his career that when the games got tough LeBron started playing for stats and clout instead of the win. When his te loses, he doesn't say "oh I should have done more" he says I did everything I could but the coach called the wrong play or this teammate should have made more shots and things like that. He plays selfish basketball
MM...THAT IS A MIKE DROP COMMENT...ALL FACTS...100% EFFORT FOR 80+ GAMES A SEASON...NO game management BS so he could rest and be ready for another day
The fact that he won all his championships with one team and the competition he played against makes him great.
Not to mention that he didn't have to go to other teams to get a ring like labron did and then make sure he has super players as support. 😂
@@duanemcfadden8878 LBJ was the pioneer of building superteams.
@@meepp8281 😂 😂 I know right 😂 😂
Staying on the Bulls allowed other teams the chance to plan against him. Build a team with a defender to wear him down, a front court to protect the rim. His agent wasn’t out there sabotaging clients to take care of him. Build a bear teams made for short bursts. Controlling the battlefield. Team mates stayed there because they knew what he brought to the table. They didn’t chase the bag after he led them to win. And the coaching security. Never threw a coach under the bus. Didn’t come back from baseball, lose in the playoffs, and talk out the side of his mouth about the coach. You can hear it from his college and amateur Olympics coaches, he listened and executed the plan. His only friction was on the practice court. And that was steel sharpening steel.
Listening to Marv Albert call a Michael Jordan led Bulls game was amazing. No announcer got hyped for a Jordan play quite like him.
90s was arguably the greatest basketball Era IMO. It's crazy how much more athletic, skill, basketball IQ he had than the rest of a lot of these stars. Pure magician with the ball in his hands.
