    Younger gens, that never actually watched MJ play, think Lebron is the goat. MJ played against defenses, where centers could linger under the rim. And yet he was dunking, scoring from everywhere, passing, rebounding, stealing, blocking. If he was playing against defenses like in today's NBA, there would be no one saying he's not the G.O.A.T. Even back then no one could stop him, except for the Pistons playing rough, physical defense. Without a doubt, the Greatest Of All Time.

OH WAIT they weren’t in the league yet. Their was no Iverson, Kobe, McGrady, Melo, Wade, LeBron, Durant, etc. In the 2000’s, 2010’s he’d have no chance at TEN scoring titles.

    So, just for timeline context - Bird and Magic both came into the league in the 1979-80 season. Jordan came into the league a few years later in 1984-85. Jordan was an immediate star but it took several seasons before the Bulls became contenders. In Jordan's second year he set the playoff single game scoring record, scoring 63 against Bird and the Celtics...but the Celtics still won the game and swept the Bulls in three games. And, yes, Jordan never beat Bird in a playoff game going 0-6, getting swept twice - BUT those series were early in Jordan's career. Once Jordan reached his full potential and the Bulls put a good team around him, he won three consecutive championships, then retired for a year and a half, then came back and won three more consecutive championships.
    By the way, I looked it up and in the 19 years from 1979-80 (Bird and Magic's first season) until 1997-98 (Jordan's last season with the Bulls) the Lakers/Celtics/Bulls won a combined 14 championships and Bird/Magic/Jordan won a combined 11 MVP's.

    MJ = GOAT All day!
    Has all the physical attributes..
    Has all the accolades..
    Has all the intangibles..
    including being the smartest to ever play the game.
    The problem with MJ is that because you can’t help but see the “Athleticism”, all of his other attributes are lost in the glow..things such as IQ, “handles, passing, 3pt shooting, “play making” abilities etc., luckily, any doubters can go in the
    “Vault” find what they’re looking for.
    No one would expect a near-lottery team with 1 star to beat a seasoned
    Team with 5 “hall-of-famers”.
    Scottie started coming along throughout the years, but no way MJ had the supporting cast to deal with the Celts when he got to the league. He did avg 28 ppg. his rookie year
    Though.
    MJ was a beast on both ends of the court..scoring leader and DPOY?? Bird was ok on defense, but nothing near what the Goat could do on Defense.
    In ‘96 he avg 43% from 3 pt range on 260 attempts. Of course he got better as his career progressed.
    This notion he didn’t have a “3” is non-sense; just ask the Trailblazers.
    As MJ said, he didn’t want to be that guy “camped” out at the 3 pt line waiting to get the ball…Look at what this style of play has done to the league today??
    Take it from “Larry “Legend after MJ hung 63 around their necks:
    'It's just God disguised as Michael Jordan'.
    That record still stands..
    “Larry Legend”?!? No doubt one of the GREATEST to ever do it… but for a game winning shot?? I’m going with someone who shot roughly 50% in late game situations where you needed a bucket to tie, win or go into OT… that would be MJ.
    If I needed to pick a starting 5 to save humanity if the Aliens came down?? Larry Legend” would definitely be 1 of them!

Incidentally, Bill Russell won 8 championships in a row with the Celtics. I think Phil Jackson has 11 rings (maybe more) between being a player for the Knicks, coaching the Bulls and coaching the Lakers (not sure exactly on all those stats just going off memory, but he has a bunch). Robert Horry has 7 rings.

    Michael Jordan's dad had a habit of sticking his tongue out while he was working on something. Mike adopted that habit from his father. He admired his dad so much that his passing influenced his decision to retire the first time and play baseball. He later came back to basketball 2 years later for the last 17 games of the season, wearing #45

    Fellow DFW resident here to answer some of your questions and provide some knowledge as a big Jordan fan in the 80's and 90's!
    Jordan played in AA minor leagues for the White Sox affiliate team in 94 while he was retired mid-NBA career, he didn't make the MLB. But he was a baseball player in school, and eventually switched to basketball fully.
    He retired after the 93 season, after his dad was murdered. He wore 45 when he came back near the end of the 95 season because the NBA had retired his #23 jersey, but started wearing 23 again during the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Bulls ended up being fined $100,000 total for the remaining games in that series ($25,000 per game) because they did not notify the NBA that he was changing numbers. Not many people know or remember, but he chose 45 when he came back because that was the number his older brother wore in high school, and he originally picked 23 in high school because it was half of that number, since he couldn't wear the same number on the same team. Incidentally, Jordan once had to wear #12 in an NBA game because his jersey went missing prior to game time.
    Larry Bird was drafted in 78, Magic in 79, with Jordan being drafted in 84. Jordan's Bulls got knocked out of the playoffs in the first round to Larry's Celtics in 86 and 87, before finally beating them in 88. They were then knocked out by the Pistons in 88, 89 and 90 before winning their first title in 91 against Magic's Lakers.
    Mike's vertical leap was 48 inches, and he ran an unofficial 4.2 second 40.
    Mike not only wanted to be the best, but he wanted to prove to you that he was the best, every night, and never let you forget that he was the best. He didn't want to beat you, he wanted to destroy you. He wanted to take your soul when he played against you.
    His tongue hanging out was like a trademark, just something he had done well before the NBA. He says he learned it from watching his dad when he was a kid, and it became an unconscious habit when he was focusing or concentrating on something.
    Mike really wanted to have a sponsorship from Adidas originally because he liked them so much, but allegedly the German execs thought he was too short to convey the image they wanted to project. Mike even went back to Adidas after he got the offer from Nike, to see if they would match it. I'm sure Adidas has been kicking themselves ever since!
    Hopefully that fills in some gaps for you, and hit me up if you have more questions. Special shoutout to you as Dallasites, as that's where I grew up, 10 minutes away from downtown!

    Yes, MJ played against Larry Bird and the Celtics On April 20, 1986, Chicago Bulls icon Michael Jordan delivered a performance so otherworldly that Boston Celtics superstar Larry Bird thought it came from the heavens. After sitting out most of his second season due to an injured foot, His Airness unleashed an NBA Playoff-record 63 points in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs against Boston. Although the Celtics still won in double-overtime, 135-131, Bird afterward said it was "God disguised as Michael Jordan."

To the fans and the media he was known as his Air-ness but, player around the league in his era called him (Black Jesus) He did eventually beat Larry Bird and the Celtics and everybody in the league after he started winning titles nobody in the league got anymore NBA titles. The Houston Rockets won a NBA title in the 1995-96 season but, after he returned from baseball he closed the door on the league. 35 years after his playing days the world is still wearing is still wearing his shoes. He the only player in the world still selling his sneakers well after he retired. He a superhero playing basketball 🏀 a real life video game cheat code.

    Young ones, NOT a disparagement at all. I'm so happy to see your interest in MJ. The reason he left for baseball is complicated but easy to explain. In his youth, his older brother was a MUCH better basketball player. MJ credits his older brother for motivating him to work harder, but his real passion and talent as a kid, was in baseball. His father always wanted him to follow that passion and play professionally. After the first 3-peat, MJ's father had been murdered and in that period of immense grief and personal soul searching, MJ decided to fulfill his father's dream and his own youthful dream, to play pro baseball. He played for the White Sox AA farm league team the Birmingham Barons. He wasn't bad as an "aging rookie" but he was certainly NOT great. He was accustomed to being great at what he did and he knew he didn't have the time or the years left in his body (or much less a franchise that would invest those years) to completely rebuild himself as a pro baseball player) so he wisely chose to return to basketball. It is not even an arguable position to take, to say that had he stayed with the Bulls he may very well have 8 championship rings instead of ONLY 6! We will never know, unless an MJ from an alternate universe pops by to tell us, "Your MJ is a chump, he only has 6 rings and I have 8!"

    Michael Jordan Single handedly saved the Nike brand. Jordan gets a 5% royalty on every Jordan Brand sale. This has helped him amass a net worth of $2 Billion(via Forbes). His mother Deloris Jordan helped negotiate that deal in 1984.
    Michael Jordan is extremely close to both of his parents. He retired to play baseball after his father was murdered at a rest stop in NC in 1993, also due to intense pressure of the NBA life (3 back to back NBA finals, and the Olympics), burnout of just being Michael Jordan, also baseball was his first love as a child (he wore 45 in little league) and his father’s favorite sport, and he toyed with the idea of playing baseball when his father was alive. All of these are reasons Jordan stated why he retired.

THAT my young friends is the epitome of TOTAL court presence and vision. Larry and Magic had that as well, MJ just did it more often and some would say more spectacularly! In recognition of their greatness that presence and understanding is why MJ says that Larry is in his top 5 of ALL time along with Magic.
