      @285dwhite Před 2 měsíci

      Yes LeBron is a slightly better passer. However I would have to disagree with you on the gap being wide between these two.
      1) Mj has accomplished a lot more on both ends of the court as an individual player in much fewer years. Also The Chicago Bulls accomplished more in less time than any nba finals team that LeBron has ever been apart of.
      2) The distance between mj and LeBron is the following
      1) 1 league mvp
      2) 2 finals MVPs
      3) 4 all defensive nba first team
      selections.
      4)9 scoring titles.
      5) 3 steals titles.
      6) 1 defensive player of the year award.
      Let’s not even get into the game winners and buzzer beaters.
      The distance between these two especially at the peak of their careers is that of an entire hall of fame career.

    I was at this game 8 rows behind the Knicks bench!! It was my junior year in High School!! And me being a life long die hard Knicks fan and it was my 23rd Knick game I ever saw live my 18th at The Garden and 5 at the Meadowlands vrs The Nets (Im born, raised, and still live in New Jersey, East Orange aka ill town) Anyways I was so happy and pumped up for this game!! I had my white Anthony Mason Jersey on and The Garden was the ONLY arena where we would give Jordan and the Bulls HELL! There was always your group of front running Bulls fans at The Garden but they didnt act crazy cause they knew better they in MSG, COME ON NOW!!! LOL Jordan loved playing here 1 cause he was born in Brooklyn and 2 us Knick fans would give him hell and Jordan loved that about us lol!! But for some reason I knew he was going to have a great game!! He didnt miss anything!! Starks did not know what to do!! I remember yelling in the 4th quarter "Yo Starks!! WHAT IS UP DOG, DO SOMETHING TO STOP HIM" And Starks must of heard me cause he looked right at me and just shrugged his shoulders like he was saying im trying everything!! what you want me to do!!! But MJ could not be stopped that game, he was NBA JAM "HE'S HEATING UP"!! THEN ON FIRE LIKE FLAMES WERE GOING THROUGH THE BASKET EVERYTIME HE MADE A SHOT!!!! It proved he indeed was back!! And yea being a die hard Knick fan I was just in Awwww on his performance and he was loving every minute of it!!! My pops told me during the game "Shawn remember this game cause you will NEVER see a performance in person like Jordan is putting on right now"!! It was me 16 years old at the time, my pops, and my little brother Kevin who was 10 at the time and was the only knick game we ever went to that he didnt ask me pops to take him to the bathroom lol thats how much he was into what he was witnessing on that court that day!!! It still remains one of my favorite memories growing up and I will NEVER EVER FORGET THE DOUBLE NICKEL GAME NEVER!!!

    Everything about 90s basketball from the NBA to college was head and shoulders above everything today. Its almost crazy how badly something can devolve in 20 years. The way they played the game, the way they sold and marketed the NBA from the introduction on TV to the post game was just simply better. The NBA today needs to get rid of the defensive 3 second, bring back hand Checking and eliminate the "freedom of movement" rule. Todays players have some athletes, but you just don't see much skill, or competitiveness in the games anymore. The will to win, the determination on defense to stop the opposing team from scoring is what basketball is supposed to be. They have killed the NBA man. And it hurts my heart so much to watch the sport i love go into what it has become.

He's a big reason why these kids today are signing ridiculous contracts with all that guaranteed $$$. He gave up the blueprint how to turn your name into a brand.

      Scottie got fouled hard before that. Mike was seeing if he was okay.

    Jordan is the GOAT no debate at all and the GOAT scorer and top 5 defenders all time.

    Just appreciate the basketball's vibes people! There's no debate. To play basketball in the 90's wasn't easy.

    The upside to quarantine is going back and seeing Jordan actually play now I can see why skip freaks out on the daily lmao

      Forreal how can LeBron possibly be the goat? The referees don't love him as NEARLY as they love michael

    Love watching Michael Jordan bulls games. Brings back memories of my mom and I watching him when 6 championships as a kid.

  • @acuman99.9
    @acuman99.9 Před 4 lety +255

    Watching this from an older perspective, it is hilarious how helpless the Bulls are without MJ. Their whole offense was really just give him the ball.

      They made it to the eastern conference finals and a bad call away from the finals without him, no disrespect but it was far from that.

    • @codeblood2000

      That's a very sad pathetic and ignorant attempt to try and marginalize how good that Bulls team was.
