U said "as a Knicks fan" and I feel bad now years later. I'm from the chi and grew up a b.j Armstrong fan. Not cool to like mike,we all like mike, who is next. Ewing, starks, that whole team was a menace and u had respect...we never knew if jordan could do it...again, we watch the past and see greatness different. Starks was a bumb! Nowadays, that man was playing the best defense I've seen in 30 years...ALL GAME. Full respect to ur boys back then.
Remember back then when the season ended it ended. MJ was playing Golf everywhere . Imagine his SKILL in today's game? His driving to the Hoop! He definitely would have his "TEAM" playing Defense. Two different games. LeBron is 6'8 pushing 300 (and hate to say it but probably on sumthin' - now- Watch LBJ from 2022 (2019 even, the not traveling in Pandemic is why they won). But LBJ post pandemic Couldn't play D, couldn't shoot well and HURT A LOT! Now.... Hardly ever hurt minutes thru the roof running up and down court like nothing and going Bald Faster than a MF.

Facts. And to be honest, I enjoyed the Wizard MJ almost just as much as the Bulls. His mental game was on another level then, as he had lost some of his athleticism but still managed to be a top ten NBA player at 40 yrs old.
@@djayb2259 You want facts ? MJ wasn't a top ten player in the NBA with the Wizards. This is a 1000% He was awful. His stats fell off a cliff. and he was 38,39, not 40. He also had two long breaks during his career.
@@jsgr5382 He retired at the peak of his career, come back in 94-95 and he won a championship next season. I dare any player in their prime take a 17 month break from basketball and play another sport then come back and win a championship.
@@thefreakyrobber0 compared to any other player. I watched a video where the statistician literally went through Jordan’s career and LeBron’s and counted them. LeBron wasn’t close. He touched on a few other players as well but it wasn’t close with anybody
One of the most amazing things of MJ is that we haven’t seen any other player until this day that can do some of the things he did. For example, in football (soccer how some lame people call it), you can see over the time how some players add to their skills some plays, dribblings, feints, etc. from other players of the past and some of them even improve them. In Jordan’s case, I haven’t seen other player do the things he did or at least do them like him. He really is one of a kind.
I'm thinking about if LeBron were in these situations with people actually trying to block his shot there will be so many finger rolls in this highlight reel you wouldn't want to watch it. PS somebody slap that man neck for me for saying Kareem played in a doo doo era
@@gregthegoatostertag8579 First of all I was 28 yrs old when Bulls started first 3peat. So that's fuzzy math if you thought I was 7. I said LeBron was incredible player but how do u put LeBron over Kobe much less MJ? Have a nice day

Jordan's years was the best years of my life. No other player has held a candle to him in my eyes. The dude was a determined beast. Played, slept, breathed ball.
nothing but straight FACTS!!! Michael Jordan was a GLOBAL phenomenon. I live in Suriname and I stayed up early in the morning (2am ~ 3am) to watch the Chicago Bulls.
@@MarioCastillion if I was where you were, I would have absolutely done the same. I literally have not had a favorite player since then. Maybe I am to picky now lol

Yea top 50 plays are trash.. they'll show a wide open Jumper because it was an important moment and replay it 5 times The full highlights/mixtapes show way more plays
These young guys REALLY don't know how physical it was in that era. For Jordan to do that then was insane. He gets 45 a game in this league between the calls and lack of physicality.
Stop exaggerating. You couldn't breath on MJ in the 90's. He lead the league or was top 3 in free throw attempts almost every year. 90's NBA was watered down garbage
@@QuiveringNow the NBA has never been better then now lol. It's literally the opposite of watered down. Its fully international..the best players from Fiba if they can make their way to the NBA.

@@sheaturner3229 Way to cherrypick one of the many points I made lol. All the tough guys of the 90's careers ended after 12-13 years. Guys will play alot longer today. Highlighting injuries of today as if injuries didn't exist in that era is bs. I guess it wasn't so tough after all if players never got hurt lol. Point is basketball isnt a tough guy sport. A little contact was a foul in the 60, 70, 80, 90, 00 and today. Any violence is a suspension in any era. Why you talking as if the rules were different in the 90's. In fact that era avg much more free throws then now..The refs called everything. Especially on MJ. The few series he had it tough he literally went to commissioner to change the rules. They avg alot of fouls cause players were slow footed , unathletic and piss poor defenders so they had to foul cause perimeter defending was non existant. But ya I'm sure your cherry picked example of a few players missing games really proves your point lol.

The thing is with these, this is what Mike did ALL THE TIME. To those who unfortunately didn’t see him play, these are highlights. To us who were there, some of these were just another Friday night
It's a great point. I've never seen a more consistently great player in the NBA or possibly any other sport. He almost NEVER had a bad night. When he did how many times did he suddenly turn it on in the 4th quarter to get the win, or follow up the off night with a 40 or 50 point game?
I had season tickets to the Bulls in old Chicago Stadium and that place would rock just in the introductions. I still goosebumps when I would watch replays
I'm a Detroiter, bad boy Piston through and through. No other fan base hated Jordan more than the bad boy era piston fan base. But let me tell you, I have to put some respect on Jordan's name. The best I've ever seen. Today's basketball players don't come close!
I got to watch both players over the years and I said this once and I will always say it. Lebron is an all time great but MJ is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Its not even close.
These kids dont understand how electric it was every time you watched Jordan played.. everybody was glued to Tv becasue we knew, we would see something incredible and never done before by anybody but him. And when the Finals came, we also knew that even against all odds, he was gonna deliver and find a way to come out on top. Whatever it was necessary whether defensively or offensively, he got the job done and never let you down or disappointed you.
Mid to late 80s to the late 90s was the best decade,rough ,hand checking legal,go to the paint on the hardwood you will be,look up the Jordan rules and Detroit's formula to beat Mike and the bulls.Force Mike left,if he drives to the paint hard foul Everytime.Took 2 years to beat Detroit and the "Jordan rules".Hack a Mike was the there def but the 3 eastern finals nothing was stopping Mike from the that first ring,or 2nd,3rd,played baseball to learn he can't hit junk but will turn on a fastball but that won't keep you in the majors so Mike comes back late season lost wearing 45,came back the next season than won 3 more straight.Nobody does that,closest was the showtime Lakers,Magic top 5 in front of lebron to.he may have 4 rings but took him 12 finals,that is no 🐐 status.

Watching these highlights make me realize how much more athletic and skilled NBA players are today. When I saw these games for the first time as a kid I was beyond impressed, my mind was blown. Watching it now it doesn’t seem that impressive because it’s become so commonplace.
@@mr.righty6985 no worries he was right after Michael and he was from Maryland and went to Maryland. There are a few documentaries about him. A 30 for 30 no bias is the name
It's more than the highlights. You had to see MJ play at the time - night after night, year after year, patiently and loyally building Chicago's success. He had a will to win like noone else. He could take complete control of a game - on both ends.
MJ is the GOAT, it isn't close. The highlights don't do him justice, he was that good. I wish we could see MJ square up against Lebron, you will see what us old timers are talking about.
As a European i had to stay up until 2,3,4 in the morning sometimes to watch MJ play. 1 of the best athletes the world has ever seen, not just b-ball player...MJ the goat & shout out to Scottie Pippen as well, those 2 was the driving force on the 90's Chicago Bulls team...Legends
Gentlemen, great video! I gotta say that during his playing days MJ was getting hacked left and right! This dude was fighting so hard for the plays he was making AND he was making them look like art! He was the first to do such smooth and flawless moves, shots, dribbles, defense! He was breath taking to watch!!! Everything else that came after him was a version of him!!! So its impossible to compare!!! Everybody watched closely And emulated everything this man did!
Watching Jordan was like watching a magician…. He could do anything… shoot anything… whenever it came down to last second cultch he would somehow always get that ball in even with 5 dudes on him… it was insane watching this man, he could fly!!! He was the most intelligent basketball player ever saturated with pure athleticism and out of this world skills….shit brings a tear to my eye remembering watching him play!!!!!
You can’t even begin to imagine what it was like to witness MJ dunk on Patrick Ewing and Dikembe Motombo!!! Just an amazing spectacle on both sides of the floor!!!!!
I was lucky enough to have lived outside of Chicago between 86-90. I wasn't really a Bulls fan per se, but Jordan basically opened my eyes to recognizing a once in a lifetime talent on live tv. You know someone is truly legendary if you can realize it watching them in their prime. Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Joe Montana, Bo Jackson, Larry Bird... players like these, were truly a privilege to have watched them play in their prime.
I grew up in the Chicago area with Jordan in the 80s and 90s. It was an incredible thrill ride, and a once-in-a-lifetime show. The NBA was never as good when he retired in '98 in my opinion.
That's what most people forget. Is on top of the offense he played the lethal defense and that does indeed make him it. And you look at the league then he was playing in and how tough it was compared to nowadays... you can't come close enough you can't get in the paint you can't touch them?
Greatest player I’ve ever seen play and imo greatest of all time. I was lucky to have WGN in my town so I could see the Chicago cubs and the Chicago Bulls play. Every game Jordan played on we would rush home to watch because there’s only 50 moments here but this stuff happened every game, it was just what’s he gonna do this game. You didn’t even have to watch every play we would eat dinner and casually watch and every time they took it down the court MJ would do something magical. GOAT IMO
WGN was a superstation/national...it just was cable outside of Chicago instead basic TV. That I also was lucky to grow up in Chicago during this era. Agreed.
Young people cannot imagine what it was like to see Michael Jordan play. Being the best player is not just about baskets scored, rebounds, etc. Michael managed to change the world of basketball, he made the whole world fall in love with basketball. That's why Michael is the greatest of all time. Let's not forget that during that time, basketball players had a lot of charisma, and the game was tougher than it is now. It personally hurt players when another team beat them. Greetings from Spain. Michael GOAT.
MJ never ran and hid from anybody in the nba. Always consistent. Never stayed away from a regular game. Gave his best all the time. Thats a legend. Thats a role model.
@@joevalerio8023 yes Larry Bird beat him 2 years in row., with a stacked team who was use to winning! But when Jordan got help, what happened? What was the best compliment Larry Bird ever said about a player he played against? I know you know.
@@ZoRenol69😂😂 Danny Ainge, Dennis Johnson, Robert Parrish? They had McHale and Bird. Tell me you didn’t play basketball without telling me you didn’t play basketball.
MJ was and still is the best to ever play. I'm not even into basketball and I used to love watching him play. To me that is what makes him the best. I knew other people who were the same as me. You are the best when you can get people who don't even like the sport you are playing to tune in just to see YOU play it. Plus he was just a good guy. Never had all the crazy drama like so many of today's athletes
Growing up watching Jordan, there's more to him then how skilled he was that makes him the best. It's the way he drew people into the game. He had fans of opposing teams admire & respect him. Everyone wanted to be like Mike. Don't hear anyone saying they wanna be like LeBron. He pulled the whole world into the game, something LeBron will never be able to do.
they dont understand how it was, there was no discussion back then about who was the greatest, we all knew. Do you remember pretending to be different players, but when you were Jordan with the ball, you were the best, you could do anything, and were better than everyone, no rival.
Jordan...absolutely no question. I'm in my 50's and watched many games with Jordan in his prime including the championship games. Dudes, he was like the Muhammad Ali of the NBA...changed the game.
Except Jordan didn’t win his first title by his opponent being PAID TO LOSE…that Liston fight was ridiculous…got hit with a phantom punch and went down….one of the more obvious fixes in pro sports….and there’s been a TON…NFL is classified as “SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT “, NO other pro sport is except WWE….what does that tell you…
Viewing the physical feats from MJ is one thing, but to witness the mental dominance and intimidation he played with was truly what made him unique and the GOAT.
I had the honor to serve him at Madison Square Garden when the Charlotte team was the bobcats and he was looking to buy a team. He was 100% Class Act. My most memorable experience and moment while work at MSG. There's others but serving him was an honor
Here's what people feel to realize his rookie season he averaged almost 30 a year after leaving College and being clamped down by James Madison and held to 16 points because the man could not score against the Zone because he wasn't a great outside shooter but zone defense was illegal in the NBA you couldn't double team a man off the ball I guarantee you if they bring back that illegal defense rule Steph Curry wins at least six more championships before he retires
@@carllangley6812 yall swear mj is better than steph and that is an illusion. it just doesn't add up, no matter how you look at it. i dont care about the 6-0 finals run against hiv positive magic johnson and plumbers. its no comparison. steph never had a horace grant who averaged 14.2 points and 10 rebounds on 57.8% shooting on only 9.8 attempts a game in 81 games in the 91-92 season. or a pippen who was the 94 all star mvp and third place league mvp. mike went to play ball and the bulls won 55 games. steph got hurt and the warriors won 15 and some of those wins were from the 5 games he played before hurting his hand lol. mj was the greatest in the 90's when they had 5 expansion teams added from 88-95 is when became a winner. before that he was a ball hogging loser who claimed he lost because his teammates was on drugs and alcohol lol. zero comparison.
MJ has no quit in him. I liked any team that could beat the bulls back during their championship run years. Always; I've enjoyed the pure all around competitive fire that Michael Jordan displayed through all those years. He may have posterized more opposing players than anyone for his time on the hardwood courts.
Jordan was must see TV everytime he was on the court! Four things that made him special! 1. He would jump and you would think he was at the top of his vertical, but would then go a bit higher. 2. He could control every part of his body like no one else. 3. He had the perfect body for basketball! 4. His will to win is indescribable!
One of the most gifted athletes in human history. Still has the nba record for vertical leap I believe. More importantly, probably one of the most savage competitors as well. Just cut from a different cloth. There are a lot of great players in NBA history but nobody ever had all the pieces to work with that Jordan had. He will always be the guy whom other’s greatness will be compared to.
MJ didn’t only have the 6 rings and 6 finals MVP’s, but he was a 9 time 1st team defensive all NBA, 10 time scoring champion. Literally the only thing Lebron has over him is longevity.
How was MJ not as versatile? The man literally changed how he played from one coach to another and became better for it. Not to mention he could play defense and set up plays.
That brings me back great memories. I was a huge Laker fan of Magic Johnson, Worthy, Green, Kareem , so many great games against Celtics, Pistons Thomas, Rodman, Salley etc but when Michael Jordan started playing he raised the bar such an exciting time to watch him play basketball back then, thanks for sharing.

Facts. And to be honest, I enjoyed the Wizard MJ almost just as much as the Bulls. His mental game was on another level then, as he had lost some of his athleticism but still managed to be a top ten NBA player at 40 yrs old.
@@djayb2259 You want facts ? MJ wasn't a top ten player in the NBA with the Wizards. This is a 1000%
He was awful. His stats fell off a cliff. and he was 38,39, not 40. He also had two long breaks during his career.
@@jsgr5382 Maybe he wasn't top ten then but he was fun to watch every night still for sure. And he did turn 40 in February of the 02-03 season btw.
@@jsgr5382 He retired at the peak of his career, come back in 94-95 and he won a championship next season. I dare any player in their prime take a 17 month break from basketball and play another sport then come back and win a championship.
Michal Jordan always came through in a clutch way better than anyone else and his work ethic has remained unmatched.
Always??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Larry legend was the ckutchiest.
Only dude I know that has a "top 10 buzzer beaters" video.
@@thefreakyrobber0 compared to any other player. I watched a video where the statistician literally went through Jordan’s career and LeBron’s and counted them. LeBron wasn’t close. He touched on a few other players as well but it wasn’t close with anybody
I've seen Jordan play with The Wizards even though they were nose bleed seats it was still cool.
MJ is and was just different. I've never seen anyone like him before or after. A true master. The GOAT.
Cap. You seen Kobe after.
@@bobanderson6675kobe is a watered down mj
Even Kobe ran short of MJ's legacy, and Lebron, I say not even close, only Kobe came close to MJ's hoops prowess. 🧐
One of the most amazing things of MJ is that we haven’t seen any other player until this day that can do some of the things he did. For example, in football (soccer how some lame people call it), you can see over the time how some players add to their skills some plays, dribblings, feints, etc. from other players of the past and some of them even improve them. In Jordan’s case, I haven’t seen other player do the things he did or at least do them like him. He really is one of a kind.
MJ the GOAT!!! Watched most of these highlights LIVE in the 90's
That man is the best ever
I'm thinking about if LeBron were in these situations with people actually trying to block his shot there will be so many finger rolls in this highlight reel you wouldn't want to watch it. PS somebody slap that man neck for me for saying Kareem played in a doo doo era
You mean when you were 7? Lol foh
@@gregthegoatostertag8579 First of all I was 28 yrs old when Bulls started first 3peat. So that's fuzzy math if you thought I was 7. I said LeBron was incredible player but how do u put LeBron over Kobe much less MJ? Have a nice day
Not even close!!!!
Saw Jordan play many times and there's no one like him and there never will be. He was the whole package, had it all. The Bulls with Michael were the most exciting team to watch.

It's like the Bird mixtape- really well-edited with great music
Agreed. I suggested that on their Bird or Magic mixtape.
eggzackly
These young guys REALLY don't know how physical it was in that era. For Jordan to do that then was insane. He gets 45 a game in this league between the calls and lack of physicality.
Stop exaggerating. You couldn't breath on MJ in the 90's. He lead the league or was top 3 in free throw attempts almost every year. 90's NBA was watered down garbage
@@QuiveringNow the NBA has never been better then now lol. It's literally the opposite of watered down. Its fully international..the best players from Fiba if they can make their way to the NBA.

@@sheaturner3229 Way to cherrypick one of the many points I made lol.
All the tough guys of the 90's careers ended after 12-13 years. Guys will play alot longer today. Highlighting injuries of today as if injuries didn't exist in that era is bs. I guess it wasn't so tough after all if players never got hurt lol.
Point is basketball isnt a tough guy sport. A little contact was a foul in the 60, 70, 80, 90, 00 and today. Any violence is a suspension in any era. Why you talking as if the rules were different in the 90's. In fact that era avg much more free throws then now..The refs called everything. Especially on MJ. The few series he had it tough he literally went to commissioner to change the rules. They avg alot of fouls cause players were slow footed , unathletic and piss poor defenders so they had to foul cause perimeter defending was non existant. But ya I'm sure your cherry picked example of a few players missing games really proves your point lol.

MJ is undeniable & unarguably the ONE
Him
The thing is with these, this is what Mike did ALL THE TIME. To those who unfortunately didn’t see him play, these are highlights. To us who were there, some of these were just another Friday night
It's a great point. I've never seen a more consistently great player in the NBA or possibly any other sport. He almost NEVER had a bad night. When he did how many times did he suddenly turn it on in the 4th quarter to get the win, or follow up the off night with a 40 or 50 point game?
I had season tickets to the Bulls in old Chicago Stadium and that place would rock just in the introductions. I still goosebumps when I would watch replays
Just listen to what the people who played against Michael say about him. Some of those guys are STILL scared of him! Best to ever do it.
I'm a Detroiter, bad boy Piston through and through. No other fan base hated Jordan more than the bad boy era piston fan base. But let me tell you, I have to put some respect on Jordan's name. The best I've ever seen. Today's basketball players don't come close!

and ya'll tried to kill that man
@@CoolHandLukeDukeyeah they did
I got to watch both players over the years and I said this once and I will always say it. Lebron is an all time great but MJ is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Its not even close.
These kids dont understand how electric it was every time you watched Jordan played.. everybody was glued to Tv becasue we knew, we would see something incredible and never done before by anybody but him. And when the Finals came, we also knew that even against all odds, he was gonna deliver and find a way to come out on top. Whatever it was necessary whether defensively or offensively, he got the job done and never let you down or disappointed you.
I remember stopping our games outside and running to go watch a game when someone said Bulls are playing
MJ is easily the G.O.A.T an its not even close!
Lebron doesn't hold a candle to MJ... it ain't even close.

Jordan is the 🐐
Lebron the 🐐 don’t disrespect
Omg Jordan is a better basketball player and a better man period
Ain't nothing wrong with being the 2nd greatest...TO EVER PLAY THE GAME..EVER. respect to lebron 👑 for even being in the conversation
The era that Jordan played in was the best era of the NBA ever.
I don’t even like basketball but would watch MJ play. He’s sooo much better than Lebron.
Yep
My GOAT is jordan, but cmon now, today's NBA is def more challenging than then
Mid to late 80s to the late 90s was the best decade,rough ,hand checking legal,go to the paint on the hardwood you will be,look up the Jordan rules and Detroit's formula to beat Mike and the bulls.Force Mike left,if he drives to the paint hard foul Everytime.Took 2 years to beat Detroit and the "Jordan rules".Hack a Mike was the there def but the 3 eastern finals nothing was stopping Mike from the that first ring,or 2nd,3rd,played baseball to learn he can't hit junk but will turn on a fastball but that won't keep you in the majors so Mike comes back late season lost wearing 45,came back the next season than won 3 more straight.Nobody does that,closest was the showtime Lakers,Magic top 5 in front of lebron to.he may have 4 rings but took him 12 finals,that is no 🐐 status.
this era skill wise is better but the 90s were still goated
This is why MJ is the G.O.A.T!
MJ is the greatest lockdown defender to ever play the game.

It's more than the highlights. You had to see MJ play at the time - night after night, year after year, patiently and loyally building Chicago's success. He had a will to win like noone else. He could take complete control of a game - on both ends.
MJ is the GOAT, it isn't close. The highlights don't do him justice, he was that good. I wish we could see MJ square up against Lebron, you will see what us old timers are talking about.
As a European i had to stay up until 2,3,4 in the morning sometimes to watch MJ play. 1 of the best athletes the world has ever seen, not just b-ball player...MJ the goat & shout out to Scottie Pippen as well, those 2 was the driving force on the 90's Chicago Bulls team...Legends
I feel blessed grown up in the era to be able to watch Michael Jordan in his prime
Gentlemen, great video! I gotta say that during his playing days MJ was getting hacked left and right! This dude was fighting so hard for the plays he was making AND he was making them look like art! He was the first to do such smooth and flawless moves, shots, dribbles, defense! He was breath taking to watch!!! Everything else that came after him was a version of him!!! So its impossible to compare!!! Everybody watched closely And emulated everything this man did!
No doubt...MJ ran through walls to get what he got.
Lebron runs through doorways with beads hanging,and still ain’t close.
Watching Jordan was like watching a magician…. He could do anything… shoot anything… whenever it came down to last second cultch he would somehow always get that ball in even with 5 dudes on him… it was insane watching this man, he could fly!!! He was the most intelligent basketball player ever saturated with pure athleticism and out of this world skills….shit brings a tear to my eye remembering watching him play!!!!!
Greatest of all time!!! I know because I witnessed him do it and hated him the whole time. Killed my 90s Knicks.

You can’t even begin to imagine what it was like to witness MJ dunk on Patrick Ewing and Dikembe Motombo!!! Just an amazing spectacle on both sides of the floor!!!!!

The absolute GOAT. M.J is and forever will be the GOAT
The numbers dont lie. Neither do the eyes. Mike is the GOAT.
I was lucky enough to have lived outside of Chicago between 86-90. I wasn't really a Bulls fan per se, but Jordan basically opened my eyes to recognizing a once in a lifetime talent on live tv. You know someone is truly legendary if you can realize it watching them in their prime. Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Joe Montana, Bo Jackson, Larry Bird... players like these, were truly a privilege to have watched them play in their prime.
I grew up in the Chicago area with Jordan in the 80s and 90s. It was an incredible thrill ride, and a once-in-a-lifetime show. The NBA was never as good when he retired in '98 in my opinion.
Because your bias towards your childhood everyone says that about their childhood

@@onlywiigame.I grew up in a different era and I approve of that, so stop the cap

Jordan is the best basket player of all times ! I'm 42 years old and i remember the time he played. Every match was a demonstration!
MJ's defensive prowess is what tips the scales for the GOAT conversation.
That's what most people forget.
Is on top of the offense he played the lethal defense and that does indeed make him it.
And you look at the league then he was playing in and how tough it was compared to nowadays...
you can't come close enough you can't get in the paint you can't touch them?
The hang time is unbelievable!! He defies gravity for 6 seconds longer!!😮. NBA has great players now, or last 50 years but this guy will is the 🐐!🙌
Greatest player I’ve ever seen play and imo greatest of all time. I was lucky to have WGN in my town so I could see the Chicago cubs and the Chicago Bulls play. Every game Jordan played on we would rush home to watch because there’s only 50 moments here but this stuff happened every game, it was just what’s he gonna do this game. You didn’t even have to watch every play we would eat dinner and casually watch and every time they took it down the court MJ would do something magical. GOAT IMO
WGN was a superstation/national...it just was cable outside of Chicago instead basic TV. That I also was lucky to grow up in Chicago during this era. Agreed.
Young people cannot imagine what it was like to see Michael Jordan play. Being the best player is not just about baskets scored, rebounds, etc. Michael managed to change the world of basketball, he made the whole world fall in love with basketball. That's why Michael is the greatest of all time. Let's not forget that during that time, basketball players had a lot of charisma, and the game was tougher than it is now. It personally hurt players when another team beat them. Greetings from Spain. Michael GOAT.
Most exciting time in sports!! - what an era! We were glued to our tvs! Chicago hasn’t been the same.
Jordan’s the greatest ever. There’s no doubt.

You are the best when you can get people who don't even like the sport you are playing to tune in just to see YOU play it. Plus he was just a good guy. Never had all the crazy drama like so many of today's athletes
Growing up watching Jordan, there's more to him then how skilled he was that makes him the best. It's the way he drew people into the game. He had fans of opposing teams admire & respect him. Everyone wanted to be like Mike. Don't hear anyone saying they wanna be like LeBron. He pulled the whole world into the game, something LeBron will never be able to do.
they dont understand how it was, there was no discussion back then about who was the greatest, we all knew. Do you remember pretending to be different players, but when you were Jordan with the ball, you were the best, you could do anything, and were better than everyone, no rival.
As a high school kid growing up in the early 90's, I count watching MJ play one of the blessings of my life.
MJ was clutch like no other. With the game on the line there was no one better.
Adorable hearing these guys back Lebron
Jordan...absolutely no question. I'm in my 50's and watched many games with Jordan in his prime including the championship games. Dudes, he was like the Muhammad Ali of the NBA...changed the game.
Except Jordan didn’t win his first title by his opponent being PAID TO LOSE…that Liston fight was ridiculous…got hit with a phantom punch and went down….one of the more obvious fixes in pro sports….and there’s been a TON…NFL is classified as “SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT “, NO other pro sport is except WWE….what does that tell you…
Viewing the physical feats from MJ is one thing, but to witness the mental dominance and intimidation he played with was truly what made him unique and the GOAT.
Jordan had a killer instinct on the court at another level than anyone else I’ve ever seen.
Michael Jordan can Fly and he will always fly. He's the best in my time.
I had the honor of seeing him play many times it was truly amazing. Nothing better than watching him play in Chicago Stadium. 🐐🐐🐐

Here's what people feel to realize his rookie season he averaged almost 30 a year after leaving College and being clamped down by James Madison and held to 16 points because the man could not score against the Zone because he wasn't a great outside shooter but zone defense was illegal in the NBA you couldn't double team a man off the ball I guarantee you if they bring back that illegal defense rule Steph Curry wins at least six more championships before he retires

@@edwardflounoy7207 Absolutely.
Jordan was must see TV everytime he was on the court! Four things that made him special!

2. He could control every part of his body like no one else.
3. He had the perfect body for basketball!
4. His will to win is indescribable!
as im watching this i was thinking we saw this type of stuff EVERY NIGHT when he played and we are lucky.
I was very lucky to grow up watching mj. Best player ever hands freaking down.
To know Jordan, you had to be there. Jordan was once in a lifetime.
MJ all day! 6 rings, 5 mvps, 10 scoring titles. If Jordan played as long as Bron, there wouldn't be a question.
One of the most gifted athletes in human history. Still has the nba record for vertical leap I believe. More importantly, probably one of the most savage competitors as well. Just cut from a different cloth. There are a lot of great players in NBA history but nobody ever had all the pieces to work with that Jordan had. He will always be the guy whom other’s greatness will be compared to.
MJ didn’t only have the 6 rings and 6 finals MVP’s, but he was a 9 time 1st team defensive all NBA, 10 time scoring champion. Literally the only thing Lebron has over him is longevity.
Not to mention a NCAA title, DPOY, and 3 time NBA steals leader
Won DPOY, MVP, and the scoring title in one season too, averaging 37 PPG
MJ. The GOAT.
How was MJ not as versatile? The man literally changed how he played from one coach to another and became better for it. Not to mention he could play defense and set up plays.
That brings me back great memories. I was a huge Laker fan of Magic Johnson, Worthy, Green, Kareem , so many great games against Celtics, Pistons Thomas, Rodman, Salley etc but when Michael Jordan started playing he raised the bar such an exciting time to watch him play basketball back then, thanks for sharing.
MJ is, was and will ALWAYS be the goat.
without a doubt, the best of all time, elegance, strength, intelligence and leadership in one person.
