- The inside game, the outside game, the max athleticism, the max skill and finesse. MJ in his physical prime - nothing comes close. So effortless. The ball and court are mere extensions of his body.

Your clip description said it all.
"The ball and court were mere extensions of his body."
Not only did he have the physical and athlethic talent, he knew exactly how to maximize his abilities. It's a testament to the hard work he put in.
Truly the Greatest of All Time!
He was setting Chapman up for that baseline spin and lost the ball, then uses the bobbled dribble to get him with an even quicker spin, cat-like quickness for a guy 6'6". That's the same move he put on the knicks when he posterized Ewing.
God damn! Jordan's silky smooth...Prettiest mid-range jumpshot in NBA history, along with being in it's top 3 defender's, best scorer, best athlete and best team leader...GOOOOOAAAAATTTT!!
MJ has such an unstoppable, smooth and perfect looking jumpshot, so sweet to watch.
Thanx for this upload, never seen this game before.
The thing I love most about this game is his full court vision on display and ability to find the open man before that man even KNOWS he's open. People who haven't watched MJ from the beginning just assume he didn't pass which is far from the truth. You don't play 3 years under Dean Smith and then just turn that part of your game off. He has always been an incredible passer and this game showcases that more than the usual amazing highlights we expect from the GOAT.
I love the old Hornets nest sounds when the Bulls had the ball. Jordan just feeds of that stuff.
I wish I was around to watch the NBA in the 90's there's something about it, I'll just forever have to reminisce off my old NBA VHS Cassettes i bought when i got into NBA at 3 years old
As always, amazing. Its also interesting to the commentators perspective of MJ at this perticular point in his carreer. If i remember there was still a shadow of a doubt wheather a scorer of such ability had the presence of mind to play the rest of the game and wheather he could "lead" the team to the championship. "Greatest player ever" would be the answer he replies with. Great uploads as usual.
I guess he owned Charlotte even back then lol
just insane
This game shows the difference between him and LeBron. See how many times he operates in the post and sets up teammates or takes his fadeaway and this is 1990!! LeBron for whatever reason will not go in the post where due to his size should have great success there. This game really shows that he is not only the greatest to ever play the game but also the most fundamentally sound. His fundamentals in the post in only his 6th season in the league is remarkable.
Look at how many subtle jukes and stutters he makes as he comes off the screen at 8:34-8:37. Insane quickness and smoothness - it just looks like he's moonwalking out there. This game is up on another channel and they show this play in a replay from behind iirc and it's even more amazing. You can't really see all his jukes/footwork here. 1990 and '91 Jordan was Jordan at his most individually dominant imo. He could have averaged 36 ppg/52+% FG/60+% TS or 31/8/9/52% if he played like Lebron.
Jordan = G.O.A.T no questions....
Jordan still had enough energy at the end of the game to flatten Armon Gilliam's Gumby haircut with a thunderous baseline jam...SMH
😂😂😂
great upload dude! very much appreciated :) no1 comes near to MJ, such style and skill.
I can't believe that dunk off of Paxson's miss wasn't on ANY of his videos. That's tha first time I've seen it
@shocker315 That's definitely true, especially Kobe who is a career 45 percent shooter. With those rules changes, Kobe gobbled up points against mostly BAD teams (except the 62-point game vs. the Mavs and a game vs. the Suns) and cost his team valuable possessions because of all his misses. Jordan minus his Wizards seasons, was a 51 percent shooter in his Bulls' career, unbelievable for a guard that scores that much.
Jordan is damn fluid, so light on his feet.
That beautiful lay-up at 2:26 🏀🔥
32,7 ppg, 7,2 assists, 6,5 reb (his 6th season) tell me again how exactly is LeBron close to this man
Such swagger that His Airness had...
7:27, very much reminiscent of the NY skip-the-double -eam-dunk on Ewing
@americanbandwidth That's why the NBA owns the team now... The league did make a mistake by allowing Shinn to move to NO but that also contributed to the birth of the OKC Thunder. Either way, George Shinn was the cancer that the NBA and Charlotte needed to get rid of.
Give MJ a chance to build something great. Gonna take awhile by the way they are going but they are going to get there.
And, you are totally right about everything you said. Those games were awesome back in the day.
@shocker315
that's right. and that also means that he is playing with the flow instead of ballhogging like stupid kobe fans would refer. several reasons for his high % shooting: 1) great shot selection( meaning forcing shots like kobe) 2) ability to get by defending with or without the ball to get clean looks and easier shots 3) purely a better shooter with better shooter touch.
@darockk Bill had a fugly shot but his defense was invaluable. He was also very well respected in the locker room and was co-captain.
G.O.A.T.
45 points on 19-28 shooting (68%)....that shooting percantage is the difference between Jordan and the top scorers today. Most shoot well under 50% and get a majority or points at the line. This is even with the benefit of the new hand checking rules in early 2000's. Put many of the top scorers today under the old rules which allowed much more physical defense, and they wouldn't be top scorers.. period.
@shocker315 Preach!
7:16 to the end... pump me up as hell
@americanbandwidth
i still cant believe they moved the club to n.o
what a mistake.
at 5.55 and at several times jordan didn't get foul and still got the foul , referees helped him a lot ..
1989-1990 jordans prime season
@arkade2345
yea i laugh so hard when i see people saying ' rose has the passing of kidd, and the stamina of jordan' haha.
first off rose's stamina is not even close to jordan in his prime from 84-93 ( from the way mj always had crazy energy to play both ends in hyper involving fashion) and that statement also underestimate how good jordan was as a passer, and that court vision had been there since day 1!! just like his mid range and defensive tenacity.
in today's game this man is scary
smooth, like Chris Smoove
7:25 Swoosch!
@americanbandwidth I live in NC as well. George Shinn killed that franchise. I don't think MJ is going to be able to do much with the Bobcats. They'll end up folding or moving.
I love how the Hornets couldn't possibly stay and then as soon as they leave N.C. the fucking Bobcats are there. WTF! So why the hell did the Hornets have to leave?
@americanbandwidth what are nose bleed seats?
@stematwork I own them all to and you couldn't be more right. If the NBA was smart and wanted to make even more money they should make a season DVD like TV shows. Can you imagine if they release the Bulls season especially in MJ's youth? That I would pay for because I haven't been able to watch the NBA in over 10 years because the play is so horrible. A bad team in the 80's would destroy the NBA today with it's ability to actually make a 16 foot jump shot.
cement ivs... mm
Too easy! the game was so simple for Mike.
@Primaloneforever This game show that Bill Cartwright is a bum
Hahahaha why are their legs so skinny lol? They look like they weigh like 100 pounds
