"Anything LeBron can do, Jordan can do"...
I don't know, man - I've never seen Jordan walk out on his team
Lmao!
lol
Left for two years....to retirment. Didn t play for two years. And when he was back, won three more championships in a row. Again.
Thats fuckin great
Exactly....LeBron Literally QUIT on his Team..that alone takes him OUT of the GOAT conversation !!!! that was Weak !!!!!
No weaknesses. No flopping. No quitting mid game. No leaving for super teams. No load management. No fear of taking the last shot. No choking. No losing series while having home court advantage. No embarrassingly bad series played. No Finals series lost. No letting off defensive and offensive pressure night in and night out. No lack of killer will. No fear of guarding opponents best player. A joy to watch. An honor to have seen play.
What I wouldn't do for a time machine
Amen...
Yup. And didn’t have an all star teammate until 1990 (Pippen), never dethroned after his first ring, two 3-peats, 6 Finals MVPs, and never needed a game 7 in the Finals.
Facts!!!!
noone not even close to Michael Jordan, all players included Shaqeuille Oneill was afraid of him. Noone could guard him.
“If you think Lebron is the goat, you either don’t know who Michael Jordan was, or you haven’t seen enough of him.” Best quote of the video 🔥
That and theyre too lazy to look up larry bird, kareem, wilt chamberlane, bill russel, and even hakeem. Lebron winning with superteams is not impressive. Any star could do that
Exactly!!!

The best thing about seeing his games live was that you were GUARANTEED to see something you never had before, or will again..
True story! When you watched live you knew it was something special you were experiencing, that you wouldn't see repeated.
Facts 💯
Yes.id love the sound of NBC's intro.and the highlights before it began.mostly every sunday.it was a national event.. Jordan brought that to millions..wow!!I miss that..
Plus, if the man could walk guaranteed to see him play. None of this load management BS to lose out in the 1st or 2nd round.
I agree. I’m 63 and from Chicago so you know we saw it ALL. There will NEVER be another like him. EVER
For the real NBA fans, yes we knew MJ had it like that unlike today's young NBA fans who don't have a clue about MJ'S next level superior game.
There's hundreds of videos of young cats reacting to MJ and it's gold every time.
The old heads weren't lying or being nostalgic, lol. MJ was a cold, cold, cold man.
I'm 43..it was a sight to be on hold on Sunday NBC to watch M.J....
MJ is four years older than me. I grew up watching Magic and Larry but Mike was a different animal. There was no weakness in his game in the 90s
Lol my bad. He's 8 years older than me. I was born in 1971
Bird had his number and it's not even a question. Larry VS Jordan head to head it's Larry 9 times out of 10
@@allahbless2278 On the surface there is merit to what you are saying. But then again, it is a very incomplete picture. Larry Bird was playing on what many consider some of the greatest teams of all time at that time he was racking up those wins against a young Jordan. The entire starting 5 plus some of the bench players and coaches are in the HOF. For the overwhelming period where LB racked up those wins, Jordan was playing on a team where the next best player was Brad Sellers or Charles Oakley. Never heard of them?
@@allahbless2278 Larry 36 pts, MJ 63 Pts. Yes, the Celtics were a deeper team than the Bulls at that point.
Team owners were celebrating when Jordan retired. They finally got a shot at winning a championship.
😂😂😂💯
@@DreJeremiah rockets thank Jordan every year LMAO
@@whenisdinner2137 😂
I always tell people when they brag about who was the best in regular season especially the finals it’s a huge difference with winning every time to winning every blue moon a lot of new basketball fans or followers of what’s going on celebrate players who go to finals to win you’re bragging about losing that’s not dominating stop kidding yourself
@@joelbrown5932 💯
He is without question the G.O.A.T. During his career we couldn't wrap our brains around what that dude did. As a Chicago native, I was lucky enough to see him play in person several times. He was OUT OF THIS WORLD. When I hear people suggest that Lebron is better, I assume they are insane.
That’s dope. I’m from Chicago too and I never even was able to see D Rose play in person
@@DreJeremiah I saw Rose play in person too twice, but Rose was a mortal. Jordan wasn't human. We would look at each other and acknowledge we were witnessing history. A living legend right in front of us.
You just told us you a Chicago native. Of course you're biased lol! But, I do think Jordans the goat.
@@neetrab I don't get down like that. I'm from Chicago. Jordan just played there. It's not biased dude. Straight up. 👍
I was born in 78' in Northern Illinois. so I got to watch his whole career in Chicago as well. Nobody even comes close to what we saw in MJ. Kobe was close but still a galaxy away.
Bird and Magic and Kobe all better than LeBron to me.
I got Dream over Lebron too
@You' Are a failure are we wrong Sir?
AGREED !!!!!
Man I got 1.Jordan 2.Kareem 3.Bill Russell 4.Magic 5.Bird 6.Wilt 7.Duncan 8.Shaq 9.Kobe 10.Hakeem. sorry not sorry but lebum is not top 10. U can't possibly be the Goat if u teaming up with yo direct competition. Also stat padding doesn't make u the goat either BronSexuals. 😆😂😭🤣
@@g24deez that’s a good list. Tim Duncan would be my only issue. He’s a tough one to gauge. His personality might even play into that. Not sure how many the Spurs get without him. I’m sure the numbers are there. He hit big shots and won a lot of big games.
20:45. Let’s appreciate that MJ bit on the pump fake, realized it while he was still in the air, then still made the block/strip with his opposite hand while coming down.
Craziest play in the video. Defies gravity.
At about 11 minutes I saw you realize what we all remember in the 80s and 90s. That slow dawning that 'Ive never seen anything like this' comes at a different point for everyone. But if you watch him, that realization will come. He's different. He just is.
With the age old eye test hustle, Michael is not only the basketball GOAT, but the American professional sports GOAT.
He was so iconically above his own game, that great players in other sports get called the Michael Jordan of their sport.
That catchy 80s Gatorade If I Could Be Like Mike jingle, actually echoed 90% of kids and teens at that time. We all wanted to be him. We would all watch Come Fly With Me and run outside and try to copy all the ridiculous shit he would do.
And he was sooooooooo smooth. His game was poetry.
People have no clue why people say he will never be surpassed. Watch him for 15 minutes, you'll know why.
Watching bulls games live in tv was the best bc you were pretty much guaranteed to see stuff like this 70-80 times a year. These highlights are more of a sample size of what he did on most night's
Sundays on NBC!!!! Couldn't miss it because you knew he was going to put on a show! I miss that!!!
There has never been a basketball athlete like MJ, the most complete 2-way player of all time. The only people who try to argue otherwise are those who are ignorant. Its not that they are dumb, they just don't know, they've never really investigated it.
They’ll say anything to dethrone the goat💯💯
And they didn't get the chance to watch him when he was playing. Us old guys know better. lol (for the record, by "us" i just mean me. I don't know how old you are. lol)
@@JohnSantana Yea, I watched his entire career. Thing about it is, what I could have never predicted in the 80's and 90's is that a group of basketball fans in the 2020's would suddenly claim that there was no talent in the Golden Era of basketball, 1980-2000, which in reality was the most talent rich era in history. And I never could have predicted that the NBA themselves would make rule changes to increase offense which would then in turn fool these knuckleheads into believing the increased shooting percentage is because of their modern superatheletes rather than the reality which is nobody is allowed to so much as look at the shooter without a foul being called, as well as clearing out the paint of big men so guys like Lebron pretty much have an open lane to the rim on demand.
I never could have predicted how ignorant the modern NBA fan would be when it came to these basic truths.
@@jackastor5265 I agree...they can't deny what they see! I'm loving it. By the way, I saw him live too! BEST ATHLETE I'VE EVER SEEN LIVE!!!
If you watched this mixed tape and you still think Lebron is better you don't know basketball or seriously in denial or both.
Crazy thing was he would do this consistently during each games for a full season he probably has the longest highlights reel if they look at all the games.
Favorite MJ moment. He dunks on Utah PG John Stockton, and a fan basically follows him down the court yelling “Hey Jordan, why don’t you pick on someone your own size”?
The very next possession, Jordan dunks on the Utah center Mel Turpin, who was 7 feet tall, and yells back at the fan “was he big enough”?
That "fan" was actually Jazz owner (now former) Larry Miller.
Great mem for sure, I believe it was the Utah coach Frank Layden that was yelling at MJ for that.
@@sixty6conv1 Nah, players bench is on the opposite side of the court (he turned to his left, not right).
@@it15According to the vid clip of Karl Malone, it was a fan.
@@it15 Damn, u right, thx
I got to see him play live at a sonics game when I was 15. Absolutely amazing, no one came close to how good he was. He made it look easy like he wasn't even trying.
I'm 38 white male from small-town NY, and I watched this man growing up and many others. This video shows why we defend MJ as the goat so staunchly. There's never been anything like him when you put it all together ..
You are absolutely right brother.
Jordan's definitely the GOAT. Some of the things that impress me the most: His body control. His concentration. The defenders were actually playing great defense on him, and he was still making shots. Some were even fouling him like crazy, and he was still making them. He creates separation so easily. If he was playing today, he would be averaging 7-10 points more per game due to refs calling way more touch fouls today and defense isn't as good today as it was in the 80's.90's. Great reaction!
Appreciate it! And I agree. Jordan was destroying them back then getting beat up every play. He would go crazy today💯💯
Very wise young grasshopper. That Paco Moreno bad boy, who's pistons were always clicking on all cylinders (defensively) who MJ dropped with a between the legs cross-over is Dennis Rodman. A top 5 perimeter defender all-time. Dre Jeremiah - check any list of greatest perimeter defenders all-time and you'll see the names of Moncrief, Alvin Robertson, Rodman, Payton, Michael Cooper, Dennis Johnson, Joe Dumars, Pippen (who defended MJ in practice). They all checked MJ. Jordan's era also had some of the greatest defensive bigs (Hakeem, David Robinson, Mourning, Mutombo, Eaton, Rollins, Parish) all-time. Don't forget in that era common fouls were today's flagrant fouls.
@@katrinachavez3533 💯💯💯💯
I have never seen another human being in any sport with that level of body control and economy of movement.
@@katrinachavez3533 don't forget Shaq lol he was in that clip against Orlando where you see Jordan and shaq both head level with the rim
These are the best Jordan videos…watching the younger generation realize what growing up an NBA fan in the 90s was like. Remember he was revolutionary in so so many ways, no one had seen this. That’s why Kobe and Lebron don’t hit as hard…been there seen that. MJ is the greatest athlete of all time. You ask how he could dunk so easily…he had a 48” vertical and obvious spring for ultimate hang time
Jordan’s dunking be leaving me speechless 😧. Definitely way too good for this generation though💯💯
Im only 27, so i didnt grow up really with MJ and all but my father was a huge fan so i remember watching older games. Watching players like Larry Bird, Magic, Barkley and MJ put all of the current league to shame. Nowadays its just whiney premadona's that just want the big paycheck and the fame. I dont see anyone out here playing with broken face bones like Bird, I dont see the mutual respect like Magic and Bird had either. People dont know anything about the old ways anymore. They think Bird was only important cause he was white, think MJ just dunked and thats it.
@@masterreaper115 that’s facts. I kinda wish basketball today was like it was in the 90’s. I hate how it became so soft. It’s gettin crazy. You can foul without even touching somebody 😅
@@masterreaper115 Scrubs getting $100m for 4 years it's a joke.
@2:19 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Bro we was actually use to seeing Mike do stuff like this growing up he made us feel like we could stay in the air 4ever everybody wanted to be like Mike 😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭
If Jordan didn't retire when his father was killed he would have won 8 chips in a row, or at the least 7 out of 8.
I think The Rockets would have taken 94 because MJ & the Bulls were pretty exhausted after 3peating. But with Jordan you never know, he had a knack for pulling through adversary
@@GoGetYourShinebox For sure that could have happened. My point being that we might now be talking about Jordan's two 3-peats if he never retired. We might be talking about a 3-peat and a 4-peat.
His fathers death was a warning because he bet and shaved points on the game. He was forced to retire . They lost money anyways, so back he came. No lie, we all knew MJs dad, he was killed in a robbery and nothing was taken.
@@ZartanXL I'm aware of that conspiracy, have been since it starting going around, many, many years ago. Nobody has ever been able to prove it. Its along the lines of Hillary Clinton campaign worker Seth Rich supposedly leaking information about Hillary's campaign then he's shot in a robbery in Washington D.C. and nothing is taken. Same situation, nobody could ever prove it.
@@GoGetYourShinebox nah.
exhaustion doenst last a whole year.
the bulls might be a bit exhausted at the start of the regular season but they would be in perfect form by the playoffs......if jordan's father hadnt been murdered, 8 consecutive championships....easily.....who knows if maybe more....if he hadnt left after the second 3-peat most of the rest of the team would have stayed(i know i would have if i were them).
The day Lebron decided to wear #23 is the day he conceded that Jordan was the GOAT.
Right💯💯
The NBA should retire the #23 while MJ is still alive
Negative; Lebron wore #23 as a tribute to the amazing 7 times straight NBA finals champion "Frank Ramsey"....perhaps that's also the reason Jordan chose that number also
@@mayanking339 If they did, it would be in tribute to a " (Seven) 7 TIMES STRAIGHT " NBA Champion All-Star guard who wore #23! Who's name isn't Michael Jordan
9:31 it's my favorite part, his footwork and fundamentals was serious on top of having cat like reflexes, that shake was 10/10 he did it off instinct as he seen the double coming I don't think that move was premeditated at all
Footwork was insane😧🔥🔥
There are great players..There are legends..Jordan is a GOD.✌
I think part of the problem is that most people younger than 30 years old probably only saw highlights of MJ during his last few years with the Bulls. And while he was a supremely great player during those years, the version of Jordan in the 80's and early 90s was basically an alien. Most people are not aware of that version of Jordan. And so when young people think of Jordan, I guess they just assume he was just an earlier version of Kobe.
Exactly 💯💯
⚾️ Mike is better than prime Kobe..Black Cat would take Kobe hoop soul
I kinda prefer mature and wiser Jordan myself.
@@mannyneva1760
I think MJ would win, but thatd be one hell of a game. The biggest battle of wills in NBA history.
@@ohyeah3707 prime MJ taking Kobe lunch money and eating his lunch in front of him..y’all really don’t understand what MJ was. A FKN machine
From the Chicago area here. Let me tell you in the 90's, if the Bulls were on time stopped just for a little while.
Absolutely! I concur!!!
I watched the Bulls religiously when I was a kid growing up in Chicago. What the current generation doesn't know is that teams actually feared playing against MJ. They had no idea what mood he was in. If he was angry at your coach, an opposing player, a negative comment a local newspaper made about him before the game, etc. literally anything will set MJ off and give him a reason to drop 50 on your head and then he would sit out the fourth just to gloat at you from the side. Players were tripping all over themselves and running into each other on a regular basis because they had no idea how to contain MJ. Even if they stack the box with big men, MJ wouldn't care and just jump into the crowd and you better move or you are going to get a knee in the face. An article in Portland said that MJ wasn't as good a shooter as the local hero Clyde Drexler and MJ came out and hit 6 three-pointers in the first half of a PLAYOFF game even though MJ only attempted less than 2 three-pointers per game and shrugged like "Not really sure what came over me" but you know it was a massive "F.U." to the media and deflated the Trailblazers during the game.
He was a machine. His motto was "what you can do, I can do better."
Who fears playing against Lebron? He might show up to the game or not due to "load management" and sit there and blame others if his team loses. MJ never let his team down. He would never walk out on them. He never gave up and his team never wanted to let him down. He was feared by everyone.
He still holds #1 in the highest vertical today in the nba, crazy!
Right. I was just saying that
Awesome reaction, nice to see a young man recognizing and respecting the obvious!!!🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate you💯💯🔥
these dudes used to play all 82 games too, I don't think anybody will ever be as good as Jordan. Dude was crazy, nobody was like him.
I love how you react then say "y'all didn't know " I grew up watching every game in Chicago. . You didn't know
I Say it for the Jordan haters lol
Jordan was the first player to do the *arm in the rim dunk* in a game. Lebron is a truck driver. Jordan is Picasso.
When he returned to Chicago after playing baseball, he was going to play games with his Jersey in rafters and his statue in front of the arena.
Old head fun fact from an 80's Bulls fan. The guy that you're speaking about who fell at 3:05 is Cliff Levingston, who is the same player that gave MJ the legendary assist when he switched the ball in mid-air against the Lakers in the '91 NBA Finals.
That’s a fun fact!
There is only two things Queen Diva aka Bron does better than Mike - flop and create super-teams. I find it laughable when they try to compare him to Black Jesus. As absurd as comparing Shawn Wayans to Eddie Murphy. You're delirious to even think Bron's athletic prowess was as raw as MJ's.
“Queen Diva”😂😂😂
I agree with you even the clutch debate they brag on how Bron has more last minute clutch shots than MJ that’s because MJ never lost and didn’t have a seven game in the finals and won his game seven to win a championship see the difference stop comparing
@@joelbrown5932 MJ was hitting game winners deep in playoffs and Finals, and against stout opposition. He played when the East was know as the Beast. While James played in the East when it was weak as the hammer after two spits. And his game winners were in pre-season vs squads as bad as the Washington Generals. Black Jesus was as clutch as that NBA logo. King Flop wasn't so he needed ballers like Wade, Kyrie and Anthon Davis.
@katrina Chavez the "Least"ern conference is how I've heard it described (Bron's era not MJ's)
It was Mother's Day 1992. Chicago was playing the Knicks. I had planned to take out my mother for an an expensive Mother's Day meal. She had started watching basketball in 1986 because of Jordan.
When I called to pick her up, she said, "I can't go to dinner, Jordan is playing today." Broke my heart. But, I understood. That was the power of Michael Jordan. Every game was a highlight reel, an event, a moment you did not want to miss. He was actually better than the accolades describing him. He was that good.
Definition of Goat = MICHAEL JORDAN 🐐
The Picasso of basketball. People don't realize that Michael was as much of an artist as he was a hoop dunker. People often accused him of showing off by saying stuff like 'that wasn't necessary. He could have just done a simple layup.' Well for him it was necessary because this was ART to him as much as it was a game of putting a ball through a hoop. AND, he had the mindset of a general. Winning was his only goal and purpose, and he always had a plan. The brother was cut from a different cloth. No use in criticizing him for being the creative gangster that he was on that basketball court.
🎯🎯🎯👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
As a Chicagoan from that era as a teenager for the first 3 and a young adult for the next 3....it was UP THERE
MJ was the greatest offensive machine I've ever seen. Him and Larry. So skilled.
You know why every car LeBron James drives has an automatic transmission? Because he can't perform in the clutch.
Best reaction video yet! On point with everything you said. I was in my teens watching Jordan and the Bulls get bounced 3 straight years by the Pistons and then finally running away with the first threepeat. Then I witnessed Jordan came back and threepeat again in my early 20's. I didn't get to see him play night in and night out during the regular season, but I was glued to the TV during the playoffs, and that was by far the best time to watch the man work his magic. No matter what, Mike would put on a show and leave you scratching your head or picking your jaw up off the floor at least once every game.
LeFlop James had to hop teams and setup rosters to win rings, and even with 4 more Finals appearances, he STILL aint got the rings or the resume Jordan has. A true GOAT comes through in crunch time, never quits, and never makes excuses. He elevates his game and the game of those around him. You have to find it hilarious that "King" James named his own sports agency "Klutch" when it should have been named "Klutz" for how bad he plays when everything is on the line.
Crazy thing was this stuff happened ALL THE TIME. Young kids call it a highlights but to us who watched… it was a Tuesday
this is one of the realest reactions ive seen to this video and ive watched a lot... nice job, you caught a lot of whats most important about how dominant he was. every game i saw mj play he did somehting i had never seen before... just one play, be it offensive or defensive or just pure skill or athleticism, MJ was on another level GOAT for sure
I love “He postered the entire Hall of Fame.”
Back then you can Handcheck and ride the player hip to steer his driving lane. So they allowed the offensive player to use they hands a bit.
Only thing Lebron does better than MJ is "Walk out on his team, and join super teams to try to win chips!"
Don’t forget flopping lol.
Well said !
Jordan is so extra. What's even up with hand-switch layup while he's flying horizontally like Superman against Magic's Lakers? Like, he's just rubbing people's noses in it at that point - "you can't even get in my way, I gotta make my own challenge out here"; same with the closed-eyes FT, or when the press talked shit about his 3s and he went out and scored 6 in a half in the finals - dude wasn't just scoring, he was making statements ... like: 'STFU and GTFO my court'. He was a maniac - you just don't see that kind of disrespect at that elite level of any sport (other than peak Ali).
Larry Bird has entered the chat.
That switch hand layup against the Lakers is underrated without context: it is his 13th(!!!) straight field goal in the game. By the time of that play in the game, there was nobody on the court but Jordan. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 buckets WITHOUT missing and then he hits that layup. Imagine that.
@@nimboneah1 Facts. That's what old heads mean when they say 'you had to be there' ... you gotta imagine tuning-in to see a dude people are hyping as GOAT stunting like that. And then grabbing 6 chips by by the balls, MVP.
It's not fair to compare anybody to that. He stole so many souls. The guy didn't know how to lose in the clutch, FR.
Enjoy watching all these Goar highlights. But I'm old enough to have seen all these games real time. Nothing like it. Never seen anything like it before the 80s and still haven't seen anything like it since. Kobe is the closest thing I've seen. And that still doesnt compare. Alot of greats I've had the pleasure of watching play. But MJ it was a honor.
Great reaction video! Nice to see folks telling it like it is...MJ worked hard at his craft to be the player he turned out to be... He took his game to a level no one had ever seen before or since... You can watch Michael Jordan highlights a thousand times and never get bored because his style was so entertaining. To see more phenomenal plays by MJ, check out his Best rare videos Voyager.
MJ was so gifted, it really was never that close. The most truly gifted basketball player ever 🦄
The footage is there for all to see.
The end🎥🏀🔥
@Drejeremiah ... I've watched other reactions on MJ's videos. I like yours cuz you actually pay attention to the amazing plays, you replay, and describe play by play. I never get tired of watching MJ.
I agree with the others heres, there are so much more of MJ's amazing plays. I also like the compilation of his defensive plays.
FACT: His first Olympic gold medal in 84, BEFORE he played in NBA, he and his olympic team (all college students) played EIGHT exchibition games againts ALL NBA players. The olympians won ALL eight games.
This was when college coach Bobby Knight said MJ is the greatest basketball player he has ever seen. An announcer said something similiar. You may want to check the videos out.
Thanks for the awesome reactions! :)
Appreciate you! And I’ll definitely check those out💯🔥🔥
At 11:21 that crossover was on Dennis Rodman
Love the drose comparison. Jordan embodied everything. He had no weaknesses. Hakeems full take on mj is very accurate
It was unreal watching him. There will never be another Michael Jordan!!!
Every game was a high light lol,I'm 50years old,me and my boys use to get a couple 18 packs every time they played because you knew we had some excitement for the night when Michael played, absolutely the best of all time,you know shit was special,when alot of reminiscing was about watching Jordan and the bulls,enough said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is the true goat, he never had any weaknesses....... and 2- 3 peats, back-to-back championships with the first season back after baseball he had to knock the rust off but then it was back to business as usual with another 3 in a row
He ran a 4.3 and had a 48 inch vertical
One of the quickest first step and shot free throws with his eyes close
At least y’all Goat gotta make free throws righttttttttt lol
48 inches ? did you watch the video ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'll never get tired of that muggsy bogues highlight. He said you know what Imma just go guard this guy over here instead
They falling because Mike was strong in the post. So when he hit you with the fake he would knock you off Balance. He used to lift weights before games.
It is great seeing you watch the players we grew up with. What makes that Jordan mixtape even more impressive is peep how clogged the lane was.
When someone is actually better then MJ you will know it. So far no one is close.
Grew up watching MJ. He was the only reason I watched NBA. Jordan could literally do everything on the court. He NEVER quit on his team. LaKaren routinely quits, lazy af and choke monster.
Someone asked what it was like back then. I’ll just say we got the Chicago station and I never missed a bulls game because I knew no matter what Michael Jordan was playing, and he dominated pretty much every game I watched. He never took the day off. He was like this superhuman presence the entire country felt, at any given time. We knew Michael existed and we knew how fortunate it was to witness his career. Sometimes I think people today deny how fantastic he was, simply because they are jealous that they couldn’t be there. And I completely understand that. I’m sorry to break it to You, there will never be another Michael Jordan.
If at all there was a player who could justify or even top the moniker 'His Airness', it is Michael Jordan. Jordan tops our list of players with the highest vertical leap of 48 inches. This to go along with a hangtime of 0.92 seconds
That lean in " kiss the rim" was the prettiest dunk by Jordan. Not suppose to use the word " pretty" but it was just so graceful
Jordan will give any walking human the bizness 24/7.
Bruh, your expressions are classic bro! I'm lovin' it bro, great video!
The reason why Michael Jordan retired after he won his 3rd championship was that his father had been murdered. His first love, when it came to sports, was baseball. He had accomplished everything that he could in the sport of basketball, so he decided to go back to his first love
I’ll be honest I’m 55 years old I was born and raised in Chicago I had the pleasure watch Michael Jordan play he is something special he is the god of basketball he’s perfect what can I say he’s the best of the best
Miugzy rotated like he was supposed to. It was the defenders job behind him to switch onto MJ
Salute King… great vid and funny!! And yes he’s the goat…
💯💯
I am from chi city and I will stand on we had the best player!! You know what never mind yall see. But I was truly blessed to witness it!! GOAT all say
45s rhythm was off. Mike knew his timing was off slightly.
But my God, he took the whole off season and corrected it. And was so dominate when he came back that the league celebrated when he retired after 98’.
Mike was so incredible … it’s almost like he was physically and mentally designed for the this.
These are facts! This man started training the day after they lost the playoffs
If MJ were to play in this soft era of the game, he'd pick up 20 rings easy.
Definitely. I don’t see why a lot of people think he wouldn’t💯
I doubt 20 rings but Michael Jordan would definitely win a minimum of 15 championships, it's not even possible to win 20 championships
@@DreJeremiah He would have to finally go against top MVPs in the finals. Also, no more sacking in the paint when people are drilling 3s on your head
He will schooled 3 pointers with his Killer Fadeaways...
That is the best MOVE.....that split of the two guys in the AIR !!!!!!!
I got to watch MJ live! Man the memories are surreal!
You are hype as hell over these highlights you would of been out of your mind watching it live, I know I was, the anticipation of MJ doing something spectacular was there the entire game and I feel like I was never disappointed
Jordan was at a pro golf event doing an interview a while back, he said his legacy had been cemented at 35, he was enjoying retirement, golfing, gambling, doing jordan stuff. He paused for a bit and proceeded to say, he cant say that can he? Coldest shit I've ever heard. Bron will be 80 and still chasing jordan😂
Don't Compare WARRIORS who went into BATTLE on the Court every night, like Magic,Larry and MJ's Generations to the DIVA'S With DEMANDS of this Generation .
MJ is the FACE of the NBA to the Many Millions of NEW Fans, WORLDWIDE, he drew to the Game.
STATS mean SFA to those FANS,many who got sore Jaws from their Chins hitting the Floor,just AWE Struck by the Wonder that was MJ.
Still,my favourite player in Allen Iverson. Loved watching him Play.
The Opinion of a 70 yr old White Canadian Women,still learning the Ins and Outs of the Game.
Another 1 watching the highlights witnessing a small fraction of how great Jordan was. Bird, Magic, Kobe, Kareem, Lebron are greats, but only 1 🐐 can exist..its Jordan and no1 has come close enough yet..he was on such a different level, he changed the game and people watched JUST to watch him perform.
I saw him and the Bulls play the Utah Jazz. Next morning rode the elevator down with Scotti and Dennis. Didn’t know we were staying in the same hotel. If you haven’t check out his defense highlights.
For sure💯
Hey Dre, just some info on why Jordan could dunk so easily is because he had a vertical leap of 48 inches...which is higher than Ja Morant, LeBron, LaVine, Kobe, Wilt, and Dr. J. Most people try and discredit this because they think Jordan was actually 6' 6" but he was actually on 6' 4"...look up Jordan's actual height. At that real height is why it looks like Jordan floats in the air. In addition, his explosion without having to run and dunk will never be matched. But if he actually ran, his 48 inch vertical would allow him to fly
Find his 1st documentary " Come Fly With Me". Use to watch b4 my highs school games back in early 90's. Was my go to Hype video!
24:40 Say it louder for the Bron-A-Thon. They seem to think he invented a new color. He never got 3 of anything in a row (not trophies, that is)
Mj is the GOAT I SAW IT LIVE MANY TIMES and seen James not even close MJ IS KIND PERIOD!!
The block @20:45 was unreal…
n the triple, in the air pump fake, kiss off the opposite side of the glass, on the Nets in the light blue jerseys was just UNFATHOMABLE!!!!!! (Toward the middle, 13:30) WOW!!!!!!
You are absolutely correct I grew up in the 80s I watched him since college there's no comparison to Jordan if it wasn't for Michael Jordan these guys wouldn't have tennis shoes the punishment that Jordan took in the league he is the absolute goat 🐐🐐🐐🐐 hit me back
Jordan vs Lebron = 48 Minutes of Lebron's face in Jordan's jock.
I'm 39 I didn't forget MJ. Hated him too but MJ was on something no1 has ever been on ever. Every play all out.
Michael Jordan has the highest PPG season in the last 59 years. Even in this age of the 3 point contests, Jordan's 37.1 in the 1986-87 season is the most since Wilts 44.8 in the 1962-63 season.
Against the stiffest defenses ever. A very physical era. He would put greater numbers out back in the day, and today.
Dude! I seen this so many times and still enjoy watching it every chance I get can’t get enough
Not only was Michael the greatest basketball player of all time, as far as I'm concerned, he is the single greatest ATHLETE that I have ever seen, in ANY sport. This is a man that mentally, could WILL his body to do things that were BEYOND human. He was literally a force of nature, like a TORNADO. Forget getting in front of him when he went airborne. If you did, you were gonna get hit by a speeding BALLISTIC MISSILE. I've NEVER seen ANY other athlete play with that kind of FURY. There was NO stopping him. There's just NOBODY like him. He's in a class by himself. He was, very simply put, A ONE MAN WRECKING MACHINE....THE RAGING BULL. There have been great players. There have been legends. Michael Jordan is a GOD. End of story.✌️
Nearly every game looked like this. He worked his ass off for 48 minutes every night.
M.j. the goat because back then, other teams played defense. That is how Boston and Lakers won so many championships. Lebron is playing in an era when teams don't play defense or even barely play defense. Plus, alot of centers and forwards are shooting three pointers. Plus, lebron plays defense when he gets ready too or when it's going to be a highlight moment. I like lebron, but actions show louder than words. But also realize, that the way the game is played today, it doesn't inspire creativity except during all star game during the slam dunk contest.
When mike drove to the net it didn't matter if 3 or 4 people trying to guard him someone getting dunked on or he throw layup with mad swag
The person Jordan was wagging his finger at was Dikembe Mutumbo, who would often wag his finger when he blocked a shot.
“ These boys out here getting fucked up”
Lmao
I watch all of these in real time. Yep, I'm old as hell. I loved Jordan so much I had a damn cardboard cut out of him in my room!! Lol
Everybody talks about his hang time his dunking his offensive skills but What about his court vision and his defensive play defensive play I can't remember how many defensive player of the year awards he won
I'VE BEEN WATCHING THE NBA . since summer 1991 . I've seen Prime jordan, prime Kobe and prime LeBron. And it's not even close. Jordan mistic and Goat status,goes beyond Basketball. In the 90s . people would bring their newborn babies to the stadium, to see if Jordan could touch them, cause they thought jordan had some kind of power or something. Jordan was Kyrie Irving. Magic,. Bird, Kobe and Lebron . All in 1 player . At some point he was the best offensively and the best defensively, at the same time. 10 scoring titles ? 6-0 in Finals ? #1 in killing instinct. And the right guy to give him the ball in the last minute. Because he was fearless, had heart, was creative, and was unstoppable. Lebron is KING. But jordan is GOD
