TORONTO (AP) -- Vince Carter lit up Michael Jordan for 19 points in the first quarter. Jordan bared down in the second half.
The Washington Wizards rallied from a 19-point deficit, holding Carter scoreless in the second half to beat the Toronto Raptors 93-88 Sunday for their season-high sixth straight victory.
"It took me a whole quarter just to understand what his tendencies are, and how I could take his rhythm away," Jordan said. "We wanted to shut him down as much as possible and make the other guys hurt us."
Richard Hamilton scored 27 points and Jordan added 21 asWashington matched its longest winning streak since a six-game run from Dec. 15-26, 1997.
Chris Whitney made three big 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to help send Toronto to its fourth straight loss.
"Just Jordan's presence on the floor got Chris Whitney two wide open 3-pointers for us to break that game open," Washington coach Doug Collins said.
The Raptors, who held their big lead in the first quarter, have lost six of seven.
Carter had 23 points in the first half before Jordan denied him the ball in the third quarter. Carter took just four shots in the second half.
"Michael withstood that 19 point flourish early, and came in and locked in," Collins said. "Michael didn't run away from a defensive challenge, and that's why he's the best."
Hamilton, who has been outscoring Jordan during Washington's wining streak, scored 11 points in the third quarter as the Wizards outscored Toronto 27-16.
Collins asked Jordan to guard Carter because Hamilton became frustrated when he had to guard Carter in the preseason.
"In the preseason Hamilton guarded Vince, and Vince had 27 in the first half and Hamilton had nothing, and it really messed with Hamilton," Collins said. "I asked Michael before the game 'Will you guard Vince?', so that will free up Hamilton to be more offensive minded. Michael said, 'Not a problem.' "
Whitney's 3-pointer with 10:29 left in the fourth quarter gave Washington an eight-point lead.
Alvin Williams later narrowed Washington's lead to three with a layup, but Whitney followed with a 3-pointer with 3:32 remaining. Toronto's Hakeem Olajuwon fouled Brendan Haywood on the play, and Haywood made his free throw, giving Washington a 86-79 lead.
Whitney then hit another 3-pointer to make it a 10-point lead with 3:02 remaining.
Hamilton credited Jordan for the victory.
"Vince hit a lot of great shots in the first quarter, but Michael did an excellent job on him," Hamilton said. "He's one of the greatest defenders in the game."
Carter scored 19 points as the Raptors took their early 19-point lead. Washington followed with a 17-1 run with Jordan on the bench, holding Toronto without a basket for more than six minutes.
"There is no reason to panic," said Carter, whose team will hold a players only meeting Monday morning. "We did not make shots, we didn't run, and we didn't communicate. They did a lot of things well and we didn't have an answer."

MJs turnaround fade away is undefeated 🙏🏾💪🏾
The intensity and tenacity of Michael at nearly 39 is quite astonishing. You wouldn't leave him alone for a split second even if he was on crutches.
That's a prime Vince Carter right here...and this is a 39 years old Jordan, coming back after 3 years of retirement...I mean only Jordan can pull off something like that.
This is unbelievable...
that's not prime vince, he's only a couple years in the league at this point he hasn't rounded out his game yet he's still raw. and even though he didn't score in 2nd half, he was making the plays defensively and causing turnovers. Multiple steals, the block into shot clock violation. Needed others to score too.
Jordan is another level, is a beast the real goat MJ23
Jordan smart defense prowess shut down Vince to zero 2nd half. You will never get that from Leflop James
@@jamessarrasin4500 Vince was great but he was never in the league of kobe/tmac/ai except for a couple of seasons, and this 2001 season was one of his best.
El kell ismerni hogy Jordan jobb.
I remember watching this. And thinking jeez, a 40 year old MJ just shut down a young Vince Carter. Damn.
Jordan was 38 years old, not 40, in this match. Let us be factual. But obviously the point stands: impressive defense and even more considering his advanced age.
@@jameswalker6864 I laughed the second I saw 38. Well scripted.
Devin Haney vs Yuriorkis Gamboa | Who will win this fight ?
Actually he was 80 in the game. MJ is a legend!
@@jameswalker6864 we can round his age off in this video to 39 yrs old. He was 38 yrs and 10 mos. old in this game.
The defense Mj played in this game at his age was outstanding. I can only imagine what his bulls days would be like cuz not only would he match his athleticism but man idk if Vince would have a chance.
Facts
He wouldn't a prime Jordan would've ripped him apart
If the Chicago Bulls had stayed together up until this time and Jordan was playing with the Bulls any young team playing in the playoffs or the Finals would have to make him work on defense!
Jordan in his prime was unbelievable. He deliberately targeted the other teams best player especially if they were a guard or small forward, shut them down and torch them for 50. He’d do this to mentally destroy other players in the league no nights off for MJ
@@masterofdisaster9194 Pippen guarded the best SG/SF. Best defender Wizards have on Carter was Jordan. But that defense trumps even Lebron's defense
Once a top dog will always be a top dog, with or without his wings. Maybe he did fly no more, but he still moved like a mastermind in his 39. That's how magical MJ is.
It took him four quarters to score twenty-one points.
@@jthrillz7288 that's still a competitive number for a guy in his near 40.
@MrBrenman21 Lol. He finished the game strong ?
@MrBrenman21 Don't be upset because there's resistance to an obvious orchestrated game.
Jthrillz 728 can you even make a layup kid?
Clamping a 24 year old Vince Carter with a bad knee at 38 years old, and people really have the nerve to say Bron’s better 😂 watch these wizards years and realize how amazing it is that this man at his age and wear and tear matched up against guys Like Carter, AI, Kobe, TMac, Pierce etc. and if it weren’t for that knee injury in 2002 they would’ve made the playoffs with the only other competent player on his team was Richard Hamilton.
No one who knows anything says that. Bron would have never taken on the challenge on D’ing up Vince in the second half.
Brandon Myrick that’s the problem bro a bunch of people who don’t know anything have too much of an opinion
Yeah 😏, and Richard Hamilton sucked on the Wizards compared to how good he was on the Pistons❗
@@BamsCam226 Exactly 😏
@@shariffsingh8593 🗣📢 PREACH BROTHER❗
39yrs old and averaging 20+ points a game with 1.5 stl a game (that means still playing on the defensive end) plus 6 rebounds a game
Oh... he played all 82 games! No load management for my 🐏 G.O.A.T
on a bum knee too
@A smile on my face but a Demon inside exactly. SJWs made the world soft. MJ once said he has no place in political debates, he'd rather hone his craft. MJ was most dedicated to his sports, loyal and obedient to his coach and teammates, level headed, persistent (even on defense), made do with his team, and mentally n spiritually tough and competitive. That is why he is GOAT and LeKing is LeFlop.
He was 38 years old in this game do your research bro
Goat
@@zackarmstrong.3089 Don't get salty 🤪 38yrs and 10 months...almost 39. Still balling!!!!
MJ did this at the age of 39 with tendinitis in his knees, getting knees drained, cut ligaments on his shooting hand, and busted up ribs while being retired for 3 years and smoking cigars! LEGEND!
Before he went down with the knee injury he was averaging 25 6 5 while playing great defense and being in the mvp convo with a winning record! Last 10 games before injury he was averaging 29 6 6 on 47%Fg, if it wasn’t for the knee injury he was on pace to average 30 8 7 or 32 8 8 playing great defense with a 50 win season and a high playoff spot along with a scoring title! All that while being 80% healthy and playing with zero all stars alongside playing with harder rules and more physical play then today’s game!! GOAT
Never mind what a PRIME MJ would’ve done, they wouldn’t even be able to handle a 90% healthy 39 year old MJ!
Stick that same 80% healthy 39 year old MJ in today’s water down league he’s a slightly better version of Kawhi Leonard and would average 30 8 8...It would be KD, MJ and Kawhi as the 3 top best players in the League.
I always appreciated and enjoyed Wizards MJ because it showed a 39 year old injury ridden MJ schooling the next gen young crop of superstars lol!!! Wizards MJ is underrated!
Josh - your absolutely right about the Kahwi Leonard and a 40 year old Michael Jordan comparison. Kahwi Leonard totally reminds me of an older slower MJ. MJ, in today’s league would absolutely be in contention for MVP with the right team around him. Wow! Crazy that I never realized that until you mentioned it.
Josh
And people keep trying to bash Jordan in his Washington years. I always felt like his Washington years was his real testimony to how great he really was.
Hunned Proof Productions Exactly! Wizards Mj playing in this era where the rules are specifically made to make everything about the game easier would dominate! The thing about Wizards Mj is that after he went down with that knee injury, that coupled with all his other injuries just made him not the same player. Ron Artest states that before season began if he didn’t break MJ ribs during practice MJ would’ve averaged 35ppg. That’s a 90% Old Mj averaging 35ppg! Wizards Mj years where very very underrated.
Kawhi is a beast and the best player in the league as of now and even this year he wasn’t 100%! Can’t wait till he gets 100% it’s going to be fun to watch!!
Dean Bryant Right on bro, I completely agree!
You did a good job elaborating you point. Me? I'll just go "6 for 6 bitches!" 😂🤣😂✌️✌️✌️
I remember in 2000 during the Vinsanity period where Carter burst onto the scene someone asked MJ about him and he says something along the lines of "Vince, yeah he's alright" when the reporter asked him "only alright?" he said "well yeah, he doesn't play any defense."
He wasn't lying. VC without the 2000 dunk contest would be a no body. He was never a title contender in 21 seasons. Unacceptable
@@blackphillip564 nonsese there are many nobodies with a title on the back of allstars.
Yup but any and everyone is a hall of famer now or a legend because nostalgia
@@kicknowledgesmith8608 He has over 2500 and brought the Raptors in to relevance. He may have not had chased rings or had a mamba mentality to be more but he is as much as hall of fame as anyone.
YEAH, I REMEMBER THAT.. & THATS WHY HE NEVER WON ANY RINGZ CUZ IN THE PLAYOFFS, DEFENSE MEANS EVERYTHING ‼️ IT WINZ 💍💍💍💍💍💍=*(6)*
You don’t love basketball until you understand the nuances of just how incredible footwork, bodyweight, balance, and ambidexterity separate good, great, and legendary players💯
Lol at how frustrated and confused Vince looked at the end with Jordan saying whatever he was saying to him lol
😆 I know right❓❗
Frustrated or resentful to the script of the transition of the gameplay modeled to keep Jordan in the limelight for audience grabs and ticket sales.
Jthrillz 728 that’s a stretch...I doubt that very much
@@dasa5023 It's a stretch ? A man scores 23 points in the first half while guarded by a beloved patriarch and his team leads by ten. Second half he only takes four shots. His team then somehow loses by one or two points while the supposed goat struggled to get over twenty ?
Jthrillz 728 he shut him down point blank he got in his head
MJ is real GOAT. Even in his 38-40 years old he still did 23 ppg 6rpg 5apg 1.5spg. MJ will score 40-45 ppg in NBA today.
Would have been higher if he wasn't hurt.
@@williamlau6838 totally agree
Hmm I doubt 40-50 more like 70 to 80 since NBA Silver is soft so defense cant stop MJ. Also MJ might last to playing at 50 yrs since he wont get banged up. MJ might get more fouls however and some ejections if he goes up against LeFlop. However, LeFlop might not make it to the team since he'll be LeKicked for being too demanding, disloyal, politically opinionated and wrong, unlike MJ.
@G C and with certain mj will develop a great 3 point shot
No doubt!!
How lucky are those players with prime after the GOAT's era. When the GOAT is at his prime, he'd dominate every super star, not only because of his capabilities but more of his will!
True but NBA has become soft and MJ might be twice unstoppable since now they cant bang him like they did before. LeKing would be LeKicked.
@@maggiem1323 I think lebron might be the only exception to that honestly
@@JordanStuffGamer but he always flop bro his good in offensive but he always mental breakdown even in free throw he scared not like jordan bro
@@JordanStuffGamer JOKE?
Mj is the best for me even Mj is gone in NBA his Airness and Legacy is still in the world of Basketball.I love Mj his My Idol and Inspiration
Bro how does he do this to a vice Carter in his prime?
@@t-god2439 Exactly 🤯
Damn, even at that age MJ was still really giving a legitimate effort on D. 5steals, running through screens, man to man. Crazy.
That's why he's the best to ever do it. Unbelievable offensive weapon while being a nonpareil defensive player...That's the GREATNESS of Michael Jeffrey Jordan.
VC was shaking his head after he made his 1st shoot on MJ. How dare him, VC got a little to cocky and failed thinking he was going to beat MJ.
he had a great game.
It's funny watch Jordan play with seemingly average athletism by NBA standards and still plays at an Allstars level. Demonstrates how well he understood the game of basketball
Vince with all that attitude was humbled at the end. If Mike was 3pt minded like today’s generation he would have so much more points but he loves the physical play and is why he still posts up and takes in on the team. Prime Mike would have caught bodies easily.
The second MJ basket is pure art. And his jumper has the most awesome form. Its peak was in Wizards years. It was simply perfect.
This is already a C- performance of MJ against A+ performance of Carter. MJ is still singin' " can't touch this."
38 old fragile MJ shut down Vince Carter LOL. Makes you realize how prime MJ would shut down today's players in the NBA.
Two things I remember regarding this game:
1. MJ said before tip-off, Vince Carter approached him for his number and that's when he knew Wiz had this game.
2. MJ ended up hurting his knee in this game, and that ruined the season. I believe MJ was averaging about 25 ppg at the time and the Wiz were 5th in the East.
Actually watching the date, this is not the game MJ hurt his knee (although the commentator mentions his knee, which I believed was bothering him all season). That happened at Washington, just before All-Star break.
Seeing MJ in Wiz jersey and Olajuwon in Raps jersey still looks wrong to me after all these years
Kimani Gregoire “approach him for his number” can you explain please?
@@vitorbastos123 VC asked MJ for his phone number...most likely happened at 0:48 of the video
Yeah Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon being in these other uniforms seem in Stephen A. Smith's voice, "blasphemous" 🤯
💯
Jordan's knee was suffering even before the preseason. He was getting in good shape in the summer, before Ron Artest inadvertently broke a couple of his ribs during a scrimmage. MJ had to miss several weeks of training, and then pushed himself too hard to make up for lost time. By the time the preseason started, his right knee was riddled with tendinitis and he was in pain most games. The fact that he put up the numbers he did, including the 51 point game, on basically one good knee at his age is astonishing. GOAT.
Btw, Hakeem was on the court as well. Time flies.
Damn Hakeem was a raptor?
@@protectourfreedom8221 for just one injury-riddled season. He retired with them
To be that good on defense that late in one's career is something else. He didn't play incredibly on offense, but man. He really got in Carter's head.
WTH! Jordan speed is unbelievable even at his age of 40.
I forgot Hakeem Olajuwon ended his career with Toronto.
10:16 Jordan carrying the team on his knees 🐐
Dude, don't talk with Jordan! You don't ever do that! 😂
poor vince at the end looked like he just got taught a lesson by his maker
Woah Thon Maker played back then?
Love VC, but he brought this on himself..... “it’s just another guy” ??? And we just gone ignore Keem out there ?? Wow
keem is ignored, he's overrated
Vince was being arrogant
I initially thought MJ and the 80's and 90's era were trash and weak. But then I started watching 40 year old MJ doing great against Kobe, Tracy Mcgrady, Shaq, and guys I’ve witnessed myself. It's super obvious that prime MJ would fucking dominate in any era
He made Vince Carter a firm believer
😏 Vince Carter tried to show out in the 1st half against Michael Jordan even though he implied that it was just another game, but ran out of gas in the 2nd half and got locked up by Michael Jordan at times too ✅
At 40, his airness a real GOAT! Watching at this time year 2021. I wish we can revive a new MJ in this era, nobody can match unless Kobe push through, even Lebron. MJ his athleticism in his time is greatly tremendously high with superior intelligence in playing the game!
MJ still play good defence against younger carter, steal balls, and rebounds. GOAT mentality despite of age.
I remember taping this game. Vince was too hyped too early and didn't have enough to maintain that high level of play for the full 48 minutes. This game played out like MJ's Gatorade commercial against his younger self (played by Jamal Crawford) when he said ”that’s a youngster for ya” and continued to teach as the game went on.
7:39 "i dont care whos garding me" this is when jordan took it personal.
He had that attitude from the start of the video up until he actually said that. He was actually being a little arrogant in his downplaying of this matchup, but he got humbled in the 2nd half
MJ was simply superb active defender all throughout his career..
MJ was such a bum stooge for the wizards. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. He was a poor mans jr smith at that point. Check the numbers. Trash
Even the greatest to ever touch a basketball gets older and loses speed and endurance. You can really tell how MJ's joints were bothering him. Yet, he still adapted and could hang with guys half his age out there.
40 years old MJ guarding a young emerging star! Mannnnnn dif between Kobe them other guys. 🤦🏿♂️
Jordan was 38 but your point stands.
I love how Carter gets the better of Michael in the first half, thinking he's owning MJ, sticking out his jaw like he's a beast. And then MJ locks him down in the 2nd half (with a bagel!) when it counts. And at 39 with a wounded knee, no less. Embarrassing game for Carter. Thats what made the Bulls so good in the 90s, btw. They knew when to turn it up. Game tied with 6 min left in the 4rth? Its not even a close game.
unbeleivable how strong mj is! many do not see that!
MJ the GOAT, shut down and schooled players half his age...just amazing
if it wasnt for his knee injury, his wizard years would have been as good as his last 2 bulls years
GOAT
and his finger injury
How Jordan is playing solid defense on Carter and people still bringing up LeBron
LeKing owns the MSM Media and Silver thats why. I could name 10 players not as good as MJ but better, tougher, and definitely wont cheat, flop, or proclaim themselves like LeKing. Kobe, Kareem, Wilt, Oscar, Bird, Magic, Dr J, Sir Charles, Hakeem, all tougher and loyal to their coach and teammates. Real sports, not media MSM, SJW contrived sports as nowadays. A litte knowledge is indeed dangerous. Soceity nowadays clamour for too much rights but have little respect. MJ and the Hall of famers deserve more respect than these softies MSM, SJWs are able to give.
@@maggiem1323 preach
Fact lebum plays no type of defense
His thirst and hunger for competition and maximum effort was still as intense as ever, even with the injuries and aging. Truly the standard by which basketball excellence is measured.
MJ dominate superstars. Even young superstarts
VC: I'll do my job, I'm Vince Carter
MJ: You are Vince Carter but I am Michael Jordan.
You just made it up that.
MJ still haunts the league TODAY. With all the truly special players of today? That proves his greatness. Sorry bron you have NO chance to dethrone the G.O.A.T.
Really missing the atmosphere and competition of that era…
Mas que privilégio assistir e rever agora neste mês de maio de 2.020, esses mestres do Basquete: Jordan e Vince Carter. Espetáculo. Show; i miss of NBA years 90s.
Defense 101 from the G.O.A.T.🐐🐐
You’ll never catch LeFraud James even putting a quarter of the defensive effort JORDAN put on Carter in this game.
Nope 😏 I agree 👍🏾
@A smile on my face but a Demon inside Yup 😏👍🏼
I'm with you but Bron has blocked sure lay ups on brake aways a lot of times, he hustles a little, and he's likely gonna break the all time scoring record so he is a great one not the Greatest like Mike but a great one in his own right.
RockedThe/CrapOut - You bring out another point. Bron will put the effort in on a block from behind attempt. He plays the game for stats. Wether it’s points, rebounds, assists, blocks, minutes. For him, since he didn’t have a real coach to mentor him, or father figure to show him how to be a winner, stats is his name of the game. U don’t believe me? The moment he retires is when he’ll be exposed. Not so much in a bad way, but in a way that will show he’s not one of the top 10 goats in the games history.
Man, i thought back in 00' he was the one who became the icon after Mike retired.
He could have but he didn't have that mamba mentality
He was suppose to be. He lacked nothing. But Frobe just snatched it and stole it
THE GOAT WAS PLAYN ON ONE KNEE!!
Vince is underrated all-time in my opinion.
It is always a treat to watch Jordan playing defense.
If I were Carter, I would have been honored for MJ being on me at almost every possession. That showed MJ saw VC as a threat on the court and respected him enough to go hard every time.
The thing is, Vince Carter forgot it is a team game. Move the ball, beat Michael to the spot.
Sad to see that MJ no longer played the same due to injuries as well as age. But he will always be the goat in his prime.
Wow, MJ is unreal.
VC was trying to go AT Mike and it worked early but MJ just learned throughout the game and clamped down later on. I also watched one T-Mac duel with old MJ, those young bucks just can't really get an edge, and they're maybe even trying too hard. They got ALL to lose in this duel and Mike has nothing to gain. Zero pressure for MJ and he could capitalize on young bucks feeling they weren't really up to the task of going up against the GOAT.
Only one man didn't fear MJ and that was Kobe. Well, Reggie also, but let's stay with Kobe. He would never allow this to happen. I mean Kobe was going at Mike when he was 18. He sure wasn't gonna lift his leg off Mike's throat or show compassion to the aging GOAT. Their last duel, Kobe put up 55 points. Happy retirement, baby!
Don’t see LeBron competing like that on defense at MJ’s age here 😆
So great to have these highlights on tape showing MJs greatness even at this age. GOAT in every sense of the word.
Two of the most my favorite players
Prime VC should I say Vinsanity, against an old aging worst MJ ever.... Mj still wins. its a shame to Jordan that this guy is compared to him, its an insult to MJ.. VC is so overated, he has all the talent in the world but lacks the mentality of a great player.
It was a bad game lol vince torched better defenders than mike that season..
@@jjespi22 Jordan was still a top defender. Dont make excuses for Vince bn locked down. Lol
Vince wasn't good at interviews, he always looked mad
He is cocky
Why would you ask a person who went on a score tear about a defender who could barely stay on his feet. Other than his name, he isn't factor to the scorer.
@Yemi Lol. Not the way he was icing them knees.
@Yemi He only took four shots
Jthrillz 728 because he couldn’t get the shots
There's no shame for MJ in this video. This was peak McGrady and I'm glad there are games like this documented that show just how dominant a force he was capable of, before being ravished by injuries.
THE WIZARDS WERE 3RD IN THE EAST GOING INTO THE PLAYOFFS WHEN JORDAN GOT HURT!!!!!
ANYONE WHO SAYS HIS WASHINGTON YEARS IR BASBEBALL YEARS WAS A WASTE
ARE TO BE DISMISSED!!!!!!!!!
They were 10th buddy Washington never got higher than 5th seed but keep trying.
@@MrSlashblade This is cap they were projected to make the playoffs until injuries happened
@@dask5687 I highly doubt that a 19 win team was projected to make the postseason with an out of retirement jordan. And for most of the year they were 10th in the East outside around February where they went as high 5th and even when jordan finally sat out vs Miami the wizards were 10th in the East and were on a losing streak.
Just notice VC's footing... he travels alot... especially when he does one on one.... try to notuce and you'll see... also MJ with his bad knee injury... and at his age pretty impressive still and all shot are just well picked...
It’s cool how there was dr. j then a bunch of “dr j’s” entered the league including Jordan . Jordan came then a bunch of “Michael Jordan’s “ came in the league grant hill , Kobe. . Now we’re seeing o bunch Lebron’s , curry’s.. the evolution of basketball trickling down from the roots and beginning of the game ,beautiful to watch .
Awesome Channel 💯
Prime Vince wouldn’t stand a chance against Prime Jordan
This was like a Legend vs a future Legend
Payback for what VC did to MJ in the preseason 😜
LOL... preseason
We talking about preseason ......... channeling my inner Iverson.
Max you the next Goat.
He took it personal!
Oh so Vince had a good game vs MJ in the preseason...well as Jordan would say "That's all I needed. " and bust his ass he did.
And they compared him to lbj? Omg he could win a title if he joined stronger team. Impressive play, not tired of defense, thats how jordan so different from today's superstars
Damn forgot Hakeem played for the raptors
#Me too,lol
“Gotta focus on rip Hamilton the one actually putting up points for their team”
Jordan averaged 25 that yeat
shit i thought hamilton already died with that 'rip'
He averaged 22
Not 25 for the full season. His ppg dipped as the season went along
Vince wanted it to look like he had the tougher assignment
this is exactly how it would go if MJ took on Lebron at 24
I miss this nba sooo much!
I guess Vince didn't think MJ seen that pre interview... Oh Word" you just gotta worry about Rip.. Okay! 😏
Its crazy how VC had all the talent in the world with Kobe but very opposite mentally. You can tell VC didn't want to learn from MJ's greatness while Kobe wanted to challenge his greatness. VC took MJ's words as criticism on his defense when Kobe wanted feedback on everything until MJ got sick of him. 2 Parallel careers when you look at it.
It’s annoying how irritated Vince carter looked everytime they asked him a question about MJ.. But he clearly tried to look like MJ bald head arm band🤔.. But he got that ass locked 🔒 up in the 2nd half.. Vince didn’t wanna guard MJ but MIke took the challenge and guarded him.. Vince is no comparison no competitor‼️ check my Instagram christianbutler8 I can play too.. 🏀💯
I agree 👍🏾
Always a mental game for the GREATS.
MJ can shut anyone down at any age
4:49 That's some great hustle and lockup defense! Why can't LeBron play defense like this instead of blaming it on his teamates. It just pisses me off! And this is old Wizards Mike! I guess it dont matter what age MJ is he's just the GOAT!! #23💯💯🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
I Love old MJ
beautiful game, slow motion but extremely efficient 23
Levels to this game! ..... MJ > Mental toughness
Imagine if Ron never broke his ribs 👀👀👀
Chris Gratton Set him back almost 2 months the summer before his comeback. No doubt it affected his conditioning and his knee health.
I remember that day hearing it on ESPN. That made me question Ron aka. Meta that day. MJ probably was making him look crazy and Ron threw an elbow low key. My opinion 🤷🏾♂️
Vince sounded like he was throwing a bit of shade and arrogance towards Mike like Mike was some random regular guy ....😑
L casanova he always did that. Always bothered me. He stopped doing that vut he always try to have a “attitude” when a interviewer asks him about other players.
@@vitorbastos123 I peep it 👀
They're in Toronto, not Washington. What do you expect ?
Beautiful basketball.
5:20 amazing footwork what a genius move
You know MJ got to VC head 😦 😂
Yeah Vinsanity is schooled by the G. O. A. T
All the NBA Games in the 90s that are was the best Games ever in that Time and also the NBA logo on the Left Side, it is realy Nostalgik if you See a game from the 90s if you was a child in the that Time and you See it now again, i wish i cant Time traveling!!!👍🏼😢👌🏼🤣😂🤣😂
👍🏼😉👌🏼
Used to watch hella Basketball back then & until this video I never knew Hakeem played for Toronto.
😏 This message is only to the ignorant young folks who said Michael Jordan only played against slow white guys and plumbers. 🗣📢 SHUT UP❗
VC got the chill when playing MJ, he didnt wanna compete too much....watch the statement. MJ's big name got the better of him....too bad
That's exactly what I was thinking. He threw up 23 points in the first half of the game at ease. Those players really looked up to MJ so out of respect they probably eased up on the gas. Yet Kobe was different he would drop 50 on Jordan not caring how old MJ was.
@@tmt6145 yeap...Kobe was different, the more he got challenged the more he determined to compete, reminds me of MJ himself, not to mention, he "studied" MJ all in his carrier. He got the talent, determination, the heart, the skill, and..the best role model.
Even MJ said, if there was a player who can beat him one of one? that should be Kobe....and i think thats completely fair, and MJ was happy with that too...what a relationship!
Makes total sense. Idiots
