Imagine offering everybody but MJ your services, then getting declined by everyone and MJ being the one who wanted your services. Guess MJ took it personal
@@smashschool6747 Actually, in another interview Grover explained that he left MJ out because he didn't think a player of his caliber needed his help. He thought MJ already had a great trainer working for him.

"I never lost a game, I just ran out of time." MJ. #GOAT
Huh?
Just got to that part my bad
Keywan Bernard Very true!
I run out of time too just a lot 🙀
Vince Lombardi said that a few decades before Jordan, of course, I would imagine someone else might have said it but Lombardi is without question the king of quotes when it comes to competition.
If only D Rose had this guidance.
Omg this was my first though too lol
Nuff Said
Right when he said quicker,faster, and stronger .....later. My first thought was drose and them adidas doing him in
We have the same thought
Speed and strength... Go go go but you have to be able to control it, he said. So true. I always marveled at how MJ could burst and suddenly stop on a dime and stick the fadeaway J.
I didn't realize how much science goes into an NBA game
it's mad, all science now
Every sport is like this now
@@jstgoalkeeping MMA and boxing too...all Olympic sports too....the old school mindset was all about 'training hard', now it's 'training smart'....due to the digital age and easy access to information, the objective now is to go deeper and more technical as possible, its a spillover cause of so much information creates an environment where you HAVE to be on top of all the latest data, tech trends, new conditioning programs available.
You guys don’t know what you’re talking about
After having an ACL and lateral meniscus tears and surgery and rehab and seeing others in rehab, I came to realize that injury is almost impossible to avoid for people pushing athletic limits. I had always wondered how MJ avoided serious injury since his early foot injury and his knee injury as a Wizard. With as hard as he worked, I wondered how he wasn't getting injured. He isn't superman as evidenced by his foot fracture in his 2nd year. In Last Dance, it was said how his trainer watched his movement during a game, then tailored a treatment afterward to keep him healthy. I don't have definitive evidence, but I suspect it is his trainer that made the difference.
This should be in the Jordan documentary
Zach Crotty he wrote a brilliant book called relentless
Go Bills
Zach Crotty he's in it
99 Spurs would have exposed Jordan if the Bulls even made it that far. There's a reason he came back to the Wizards only a few years later and couldn't even get them into the playoffs in a trash East. TEAM sport

MJ is probably the greatest case study in, at least, sports psychology.
Too many commas
Connor Seams like a billionaires bank account
I think you mean physiology but it's both probably. I think Cristiano Ronaldo is one as well.
Larry Bird
@@nielspeelen5748 I think you could make a case for the physiology. But most definitely for the psychology... not many (innately) think that they only lost because they 'ran out of time'.
In regards to physiology, you think of the machinery and/or the neurological moderation of motor output. There are a few who come to mind in the modern era (in the sports where there exists some 'evolutionary meritocracy'), including Lebron, Messi, Ronaldo, Phelps, Indurain, Bo, Bolt.
MJs ability to shoot on the way down was probably as good as at any other point in the jump shot. Just ridiculous that he could get a defender out-of-phase like that.
''the harder i practice the easier the game becomes,'' MJ. #GOAT
11:11 "I never lost a game I just run out of time" the best thing I ever heard. the is the real GOAT!!!

Right and before the advent of today’s tech.
Jon Davis - No you didn’t because tim was born in 1964. I just googled his age and I knew you were lying. Jordan was known in the early 80’s. In the 70’s he wasn’t known.
Jon Davis - So before Jordan was in college or high school? That’s before 1978. So you worked with Tim was 14 years old or younger??
The two most impressive pieces of this talk were when he gave mike all the credit saying “he would have been the best without me, I just helped him play a little longer”, and the fact that he was able to get the player’s mailing addresses to send the notes. I want to know how he got a hold of those addresses.
he sent the letters to the Chicago Bulls
He's basically saying he's the Michael Jordan of "Sport enhancement specialists"

Dang, with that mentality, those game-ending shots are not seen as miracles to Jordan but merely improvements to his game.
That's a really good life philosophy. One of the reasons why I love sports. It's entertainment and a way of approaching life...
Pretty sure that was a Yogi Berra quote, which is funny because there's technically no time in baseball. He was full of dumb quotes and nobody could tell if he was joking or just stupid.

Our society is flawed because it creates too many barriers for people like this guy to practise their craft. This guy is the kind of person you could task with just about anything and their attention to detail would yield unprecedented results.
How can you not be inspired after watching this? This guy's passion down to every little detail is truly amazing.

I've just watched the last dance doc. I never had an interest but do now, it's an amazing sport. I found it hilarious how Jordan would psyche himself up over the slightest things lol. True competitor.
So obvious
I met his trainer in a basketball camp before and this guy was amazing. I mean he wouldn’t miss any shots at all and he kept track of every shot he’s taken it was awesome to see.
Ultimate flex is being able to say you helped Jordan achieve GOAT status
@Rune Master you think LeBron is better
he helped kobe and wade too
Tim also said Mike would have been the greatest regardless Tim training or not
Then to have MJ recommend you onto Kobe once he was done... Talk about passing the torch...
I always believed that about Michael: "he never lost a game, he just ran out of time"! That's why I've always said: even on nights when his shot was off, even in games he lost - he always played like Michael Jordan! Greatest Ever!
*MY EXPERIENCE WITH TIMOTHY GROVER:*
I was a young kid coming up in Detroit.. My vocals were fire, but I wanted to be the best. So I called Tim... he charged $350/hour - We worked on everything around my game...yelling, whispering, high notes, low notes, etc.

For me being a personal trainer who specializes in sport specific training this was amazing.
Intense. He matched Jordan's intensity. Freakin Mad Scientist!
The good thing about Mike is he knew how to utilized the people around him. He allowed Pippen to be the facilitator. He allowed Horace and Rodman to do the dirty works. He allowed Phil to coach him, Tim Grover to train him among others. I think that's more important than forcing people to change their game to cater yours.
Sounds like a dig at LeBron.
And a justifiable one lol.
Yes, when you force yourself on people it makes you look good while it makes others around you look bad. That whole "makes his teammates better" narrative is bs, I know you know who I'm talking about.

The only 2 things he asked were for more money and respect which he got both. Greatness His airness!!
That was an amazing lesson. And also we are reminded how sharp MJ is with his choices.

after listening to Grover talk, this dude is honestly one of the most professional, accountable, and trainers a person can have...This dude was the goat of trainers
This video is great! Really insightful and makes it clear how Jordan physically got so superb with his trainer paying such attention to detail along his career and making adjustments when needed. Also, knowing exactly how to train mentally and apply experience, wisdom, and Jordan's competitive nature with the over achieved detail physical training, is how and why his game dominated so greatly. I didn't know until watching this that he had a trainer that contributed as much as was explained here. I just thought Michael did everything on his own basically and just pushed himself a little harder than others. Which is true, but this guy deserves much credit for his contribution to conditioning and micromanaging Jordan's overall training and treatment during his career. Good job.
Everybody's thinking it. "He needs to train Zion right now!"
