@@RjDixonTV that buzzer beater at 6:15 is the only do or die elimination game shot made like that in playoff history. Best of 5 tied series at 2 games a piece and down by 1 point. He misses they go home. He makes it they advance. Only shot like that in playoff history.
Bro I'm going to put what watching MJ live was like. I'm adopted by my father's mom. She hates watching sports on TV she said she had five exceptions that she would watch because the athletes were going to do something you couldn't miss or believe the person at the top of the list was a tie between MJ and Barry Sanders. There's only 3 others on the list Shaq A.I. and Mike Vick
Meet the G.O.A.T of all G.O.A.Ts we call him Air Jordan, His Airness, Black Cat, Black Jesus, Flight 23 or simply the greatest basketball player in the history of the game. The Original #23.
The *_ONLY_* comparison I can think of... is a hypothetical. *_IF_* Cus D'Amato had *_NOT_* died and prevented the other "MIKE"..... Mike Tyson, from getting in with don king and that bitch of a woman... I feel confidant that Tyson could have stood *_UNDEFEATED_* in the boxing ring for at least two decades, from 20-40yrs, He could have just stood there and month after month after month defeat every single person who dared to step in there. I mean hell there was a year tyson went 15-0 in a *SINGLE* year.... *_WHO CAN DO THAT???_* Well... a "Michael Jordan" of his field can... and I believe Tyson had that potential... but didn't have the Jordan focus after Cus died and all the other stuff happened. I mean he *_technically_* should have won that Douglas fight, and he was in such *_HORRIBLE_* condition then it's not even funny. Tyson never lost the power, which is what kept him a threat and on top for long as he was... but the footwork/peekaboo style/and drive were gone within a year or two of Cus passing. Like if when Jordan came back he was all about money and partying and stopping winning and stopped playing defense... But he didn't... Jordan came back basically the same *I absolutely **_MUST_** win!* Jordan he left as.
What i love about MJs game is its beautiful in its simplicity. There are no wasted movements, no extra flashy dribbles. Just fundamentally sound, simple basketball. No doubt a testament to his hard work in practice. When you practice like it's game 7 of the finals everything else is simple.
@@Giles316 That is by far the best element of his game. Totally agree. Never seen a player completely dismantle guys with 1 to 3 dribble pull-ups, and jab blow-bys…..unreal….
It's why Kenny Smith, who saw MJ as a raw 18 year old freshman at UNC, always says that MJ is the most fundamentally sound superstar. He saw him step-by-step, year by year, go from pure raw Top 1% athleticism and add each fundamental skill bit-by-bit. It still amazes the guys of MJs generation that saw him perfect every aspect of the game. Reggie Miller and Jalen Rose are probably right when they say the '98 Pacers were a deeper, more talented team at the time they lost to the Bulls, but they both just say that MJ just knew how to win. He perfected it. And then weeks later...down 3 with 58 seconds to go.....bucket, steal, bucket. Game over. Bulls win the chip, again. MJ perfected the way to win a game of basketball.
It was an honor and privilege to watch him play. It was as if an artist had entered the arena. He made the impossible possible. Gave us fans hope. That. We too can achieve our dreams if we just work at it. He was the first to practice. The last to leave. The hardest worker. He was simply unbelievable to watch. Saw him in person a couple of times. Goosebumps the entire game. I miss watching him perform.
One UA-camr who reacted to this video put it best. He said something to the effect of: "People only question who is the GOAT when they're not actually watching Jordan."
@@RjDixonTVhere's another fact. Not only were these type plays every night but this is only what we got footage of. Jordan's games in the 80's, only 40% of the games do we have full game footage. Just think about what we missed cause I mean that's the more athletic version of Jordan.
This may seem word. But this video brings me to tears. He was just so amazing. And we thought he could play forever. 😢thank you Michael for the years of enjoyment you gave us. There is and will never be another goat.
My favorite memory of my Dad is when Mike hit the game winner in Utah for his final championship. My dad was not a Jordan fan so when he hit the shot I ran into his room to tell him about it but little did I know he was watching and jumping with excitement and we both hugged each other in amazement of what we just saw.
Wat a time too b alive…us old heads are not stuck in the past…we’ve seen thee golden era of basketball…seen greats legends n hall of famers that’s played after him….NOOOOBODY is better than HIM!!!! NOBODY!!!! He is simply #TheOneAboveAll
Another fun fact MJ won dpoy while averaging 35ppg😲🤯 Lead his team in points assists steals and blocks PG in his rookie season amd practically every season he played for the Bulls 😲🤯
He's my favorite 2 way player, my goat. I had the privilege to grow up watching this man play. I still have yet to see anyone out play this man. I actually got to see him his last year on the wizards playing against Cleveland. And all I can remember when watching him was how much better he was than anyone on that court, he was smooth, calm, graceful..GOAT!
In terms of witnessing him live. I’m 52 and watched his whole career as a die hard Knicks fan. I specifically remember hangin w my two best friends watching him in ‘87. So that’s a few years before his first championship. I looked at my two friends and said, “guys, we have to stop and appreciate, we’re watching Babe Ruth”. In the moment, we knew we were watching a legend that we’d be telling our grandkids about. And again, this was only a third into his career. He was absolutely incredible to watch, and he did at least one spectacular thing every game.
@ Yes, we’re lucky. Just like the envy I felt listening to my father talk about Mickey Mantle and Wilt. Some people say spoiled but I think that’s misleading cause we were well aware how lucky we were at the time.
I’m 54, the first time I seen him was March 29, 1982 when he hit the shot against my Hoyas. Honestly it was my first I can remember seeing the best college player I ever seen still to this day Patrick Ewing. That was the reason I watched the game was because of Ewing.
I watched him play as a Lakers & Knicks fan & he was great but people need to acknowledge that the NBA was weak in the '90s when he started winning. There's a reason in the first third of his career he didn't win anything. The real Showtime Lakers would have easily defeated any of Jordan's championship teams, including the '96 team. That video of Jordan counting his rings, saying sorry Showtime when he pointed to the first one infuriated me. That was a shell of a Lakers team, which goes to show how weak the NBA got in the '90s that a Kareem-less Lakers with an about to retire Magic Johnson & a past his prime James Worthy could even make it to the NBA Finals. Not to mention win one from the supposedly great Chicago Bulls.🤔🤫
Truely grateful that I got to watch his whole career, I grew up in chi-town and went to his basketball camp for a few summers it was called Flight School… Even got to play him one on one there (only bcuz I wore a Georgetown jersey and he looked right at me and said you wore that to my camp?) Ah come on out here and get your lil butt whooped right now son…
The greatest ever, and it's not even close. Just one example. There are 4 players in NBA history who did the following in one season: Win a ring, finals MVP, season MVP, scoring title and being 1st team all defense. Those players are: MJ, MJ, MJ and MJ.
@@ingobordewick6480 Remember a few of those awards did not exist in Wilt's career. Mike is the goat. Wilt is the only one on the same planet. Both aliens
Just goes to show how bad the '90s was. Because he definitely didn't do that in the '80s. Also, Kobe would have done it if not for a few League MVPs robbed from him.
This is why us who have seen him play live in the Day ( I was in High School when he entered the league ) will never waiver that MJ is and will Forever be The 🐐💯⭐️🐐💯⭐️🐐💯⭐️💯💫
I was in 7th grade when he came into the league. I remember not liking him sometimes when I was younger just because he was so amazingly good and I was not a bulls fan, but it was impossible not to like and admire him on some level, he was just so different than anybody else. Today I realize it even more. Jordan played 82 games or just under like, 79 or 80, almost every single year he played except one- his 2nd year when he got injured. Jordan played 82 games his last year in the NBA. He was a monster and just so superior athletically, but also mentally and any other way you can be as a basketball player. At the time when I was younger I knew he was good, but I did not realize there might not ever be another player like him. Today I am convinced; there will never be another Jordan, for a multitude of reasons, Jordan is the greatest of all-time.
MJ defined basketball, he was a great and gifted painter, and the basketball court was his canvas where he completed his greatest masterpieces. He is the unquestioned GOAT and always will be. MJ #23
Michael didn’t just palm the ball - he palmed the league, he palmed the building, and everybody and every bag of popcorn in it. He owned like no one ever owned, and you knew it every single day the Bulls set foot on a court. This was not a human, this was an apparition, and we spent the better part of a decade pulling our jaws off the floor watching it happen. “GOAT” doesn’t even begin to describe it, and NO, no one is even close. To even suggest that LeBron or anyone else even shares Michael’s solar system is pure insanity, and they’ll be the first to point it out.
The funny thing about that moment where he got a bucket, stole the ball, had the ball stolen, and then chased it down for a block is that he got that initial bucket after stealing the ball.
Michael Jeffrey Jordan scored more 40 and 50 point games than all the players that ever played for the Chicago Bulls in it's history🤯 Also his rookie season numbers are basically the same as Kobe's MVP season numbers 🤯
Imagime growing up in Chicago and being able to see EVERY. SINGLE. GAME. LIVE!! That last shot felt bittersweet. We were all so happy that we won another chip, but we also knew it was all over. What a time to be alive
Very good point. The infinitely ignorant will say that it was because the defenders back then were inferior. But they have no clue MJ was checked by the greatest perimeter defenders all-time (Moncrief, Alvin Robertson, Rodman, Michael Cooper, Payton, Dennis Johnson, Dumars, Pippen-in practice). And when he evaded them pitbull lock-jaws he had to contend with the greatest rim-protectors all-time (Hakeem, David Robinson, Mourning, Mutombo, Ewing, Eaton, Rollins, Parish). And in an era where today's flagrant two were just common fouls. #WhereAmazingHappened
At 13:29 this is when the Pistons had that rule to always get a hard flagrant on Jordan since flagrants didn't exist back then. They tried to injure him and cheat against the bulls but the bulls turned into the Bad Boy Bulls to show the Bad Boy Pistons that they were good little boys
Great reaction video…🎤🔥 MJ is the reason why LeBron wears #23…and LBJ has stated many times that MJ is the GOAT…my favorite player is Wilt Chamberlain, my GOAT is MJ…his game had everything you needed and wanted in a player that’s why MJ is the greatest to ever play the game of basketball…👽
If they ever make a video of every Michael Jordan highlight, it would be 4 or 5 hours long. The man had a dozen highlight plays in almost every game. I'm so glad that I got to grow up watching him play through his college years and his professional years.
I watched almost all of these highlights when they happened live. The most shocking to me was the first time he dunked a missed free throw. But he shocked me every game he played. No one shocks me like that now. Some players these days amaze me, but it's not the same.
Every team knew who was going to get the ball, and they still could not stop him. He dared you to try and stop him! You dont see many highlights of his defense, it was just as savage. Jordan owned the paint, all you saw was bodies fly and you knew the ball was going in. Air Ninja!
Wonderful reaction! Thank you so much!! Have you seen the Voyager Video? Michael Jordan Rare footage by Voyager? It's the best Jordan mix tape ever -- there's even a segment on the hard fouls perpetrated on MJ (including Rodman punching Jordan while Isaiah Thomas tackles him, too). Would love to see it! Jordan fans LOVE reactions to that Voyager video. Thanks again! Love your work! 😇
The thing you appreciate about Michael Jeffrey isn’t the jumping or the dunking. It was: a) he was relentless. He’d go RIGHT.AT.YOU. b) he did this every night… every time he took the floor. c) his footwork was impeccable. He actually worked on it all the time. d) the hustle. Nuff said. e) the clutchness. We can have all the debates all day about GOAT-ness but I think EVERYONE can say that he’s hands-down the best individual contributor ever in the history of the NBA. Overall GOAT? Oh well. We can have all the convos later.
I've never watched a highlight reel of a single NBA player that was this amazing. He's just dunking on everybody. It doesn't matter if the defender is 5 feet or 7 feet tall. To visualize MJ today would be a little bit of Kyrie Irving and Ja Morant with Steph Curry. That's the best that I can describe him. Michael played high school basketball without a 3-point line. It wasn't implemented until the 1979/80 season. MJ's Rookie of the Year was in 1984/85. So Michael and other NBA stars were still adapting to it.
18:41 calling Glenn Rice "dude" automatically tells me you're young af😅 all good though. Shoutout to tou though for being one of the few to pause the video and highlight that fake🔥 Glad you finally took the time to acknowledge this video do you'd understand who the TRUE 🐐 is💯 keep up the great work.
lol I feel like I’ve heard than name before … is Glenn rice from Indiana ? I think I’ve heard my pops mention him before . .. aye that ball fake is crazy ! Thanks for watching bro
Nothing beats a good honest reaction. Excellent video! You might take a look at the "Jordan vs Lebron - The Best GOAT Comparison" video, keeping in mind that vid is 4+ years old. Regardless, the truth is in there. Also, there's a short part of the video that is fuzzy, but it comes back after like 15-20 seconds. Oops, forgot. That video is by DANGERProductions. Not my channel, just a recommendation.
Guy retires, comes back at the end of the season and drops 55 against the Nicks. You can't even imagine what this guy was like night in and night out. Us Chicagoans were in basketball heaven for all those years.
Jordan was a true "2 way" player. Perhaps the greatest 2-way player in NBA history. With 10 x scoring champion while being 9x NBA 1st Team all Defense, and 10x NBA All 1st team. The man was a legit threat on all aspects of the court when he played. It was something to watch a player average 30 points a game, and still average 2 steals a game with one on one defensive plays.
You need to do a deep dive into the stats. One of my faves is that he never even played in a game 7 championship game, and only 3 in any playoff games ever
Yes he was different and I used to watch basketball trying to figure out how to gain that skill set and finally after all these years I figured it out! Not just practice but he reached Christ conscious! His game says it all now! The reason for the nickname Black Jesus💯I didn’t fully understand that moniker when I was a kid but now it makes perfect sense!
The part where he shot six three-pointers in a row all happened in the first half of the same game... in the Finals. The media had been saying he couldn't shoot threes before that game so he decided to show that he could.
Imagine watching him live it's 5 seconds on the clock Bulls coming out of time out the whole world watching we know who fin to get the ball. Can he do it again, then yes he hits the game winner again.
They didn't call him Air Jordan for no reason. Some even believe he's an alien.There's more videos of Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is and always will be the G.O.A.T. The 3 pointer wasn't a huge part of the game back in the 80's & 90's
Dude, I grew up watching MJ get stupid on the entire NBA. I watched this man live and believe me, he earned the title of Black Jesus!!! Also, that mid-air reverse against the Lakers in the playoffs is to me, one of the greatest shots ever. The control was insane to do that.
and yet some dúmb tiktoker claimed that MJ can't go left. clearly he didn't watched this video. this was uploaded years before that slanderous rumor exploded.
I wish this guy caught the play where MJ missed blocking this guy's shot in mid air with one hand and blocked it with the other hand while he was still in mid air😮 You'll never see another player do that. That's GOAT sh*t right there😂
There’s not another basketball player that made or makes me not want to miss a single postseason on either end of the court. You knew at some point, in the words of Joe Dumars, “he’s going to do something freaky.” He did it night after night, year after year, against professionals, almost at will.
Difference between MJ and any current player is that MJ can and will score anywhere on the court. Modern NBA is guard the 3 and around the basket and you will succeed. No one current has the skillset MJ had, or anywhere close to it.
How Good Was Michael Jordan Actually???? Check out the new video!!

RJ, as an "old head," it warms my heart to see your genuine awe at MJ's skills, abilities, and showmanship. Just subbed..keep it up young fella.

At 13:29 this is when the Pistons had that rule to always get a hard flagrant on Jordan since flagrants didn't exist back then. They tried to injure him and cheat against the bulls but the bulls turned into the Bad Boy Bulls to show the Bad Boy Pistons that they were good little boys
That’s crazy
The damn truth! MJ showed Zeke's hoes who was the real bad boy like Paco Moreno.
@@RjDixonTV Yeah and that also just helped him become a better player overall and also helping him master his iconic fade
Great reaction. Check out Jordan "one of the best defenders ever "
Oh definitely will!!
Great reaction video…🎤🔥 MJ is the reason why LeBron wears #23…and LBJ has stated many times that MJ is the GOAT…my favorite player is Wilt Chamberlain, my GOAT is MJ…his game had everything you needed and wanted in a player that’s why MJ is the greatest to ever play the game of basketball…👽
He was insane ! Can’t believe what I was seeing
If they ever make a video of every Michael Jordan highlight, it would be 4 or 5 hours long. The man had a dozen highlight plays in almost every game. I'm so glad that I got to grow up watching him play through his college years and his professional years.
What people that didn't see him play don't realize is that this is just the tip of the iceberg. He did this stuff every. single. night.
That’s so crazy to even think about!
Greatest of all Time 🐐 there is nobody even come close to him . there was only kobe closer to MJ
And that’s my fav KOBE… but I know if I was alive to see MJ then it would be different forsure !!
No hay comparación el único GOAT
Watching him live. I got to see him play in person once. You never KNEW what he was going to do next.
Defensive player of the year !!!
Thank goodness I was alive to watch the GOAT play.
You lucky !
I watched almost all of these highlights when they happened live. The most shocking to me was the first time he dunked a missed free throw. But he shocked me every game he played. No one shocks me like that now. Some players these days amaze me, but it's not the same.
Every game partner. He was that dude.
He brings the jelly and the jam!
Forsure!! lol
Not only dis he score like a magician, but he was also an all-world defender.
Flawless
He still ahead of the time!
Facts!!
Every month for his entire career you could make a fantastic mixtape . He made plays every game
He didnt play basketbal... HE WAS basketball.. GOAT isnt even CLOSE to what he was.. lol
lol 🌟🌟
Love this reaction video bro .. pls do react to Michael Jordan best rare videos voyager part 1 and voyager part 2
#MJTheGOAT🐐
Thank you ! & that’s a bet !!! 💪🏽🔥
Jordan 🐐 the real #23.
Facts !
GOAT
The man knew only one gear. The modern NBA is built off this man's back.
Every team knew who was going to get the ball, and they still could not stop him. He dared you to try and stop him! You dont see many highlights of his defense, it was just as savage. Jordan owned the paint, all you saw was bodies fly and you knew the ball was going in. Air Ninja!
Mannn it’s crazy !
He had one of the prettiest jump shots I have ever seen...
It definitely was super smooth!
What's really crazy is that most of these highlights are from playoff and championship games!
The shot in game 6 of the 1998 NBA finals will always be the greatest highlight of his career.
That was definitely an amazing shot !!!
The G.O.A.T
🔥🔥
Wonderful reaction! Thank you so much!! Have you seen the Voyager Video? Michael Jordan Rare footage by Voyager? It's the best Jordan mix tape ever -- there's even a segment on the hard fouls perpetrated on MJ (including Rodman punching Jordan while Isaiah Thomas tackles him, too). Would love to see it! Jordan fans LOVE reactions to that Voyager video.
Thanks again! Love your work! 😇
Thank you for watching !!! And I havnt yet but I’m definitely reacting to that next !
@RjDixonTV brilliant! Thank you so much...im so here for it!!
The thing you appreciate about Michael Jeffrey isn’t the jumping or the dunking. It was: a) he was relentless. He’d go RIGHT.AT.YOU.
b) he did this every night… every time he took the floor.
c) his footwork was impeccable. He actually worked on it all the time.
d) the hustle. Nuff said.
e) the clutchness.
We can have all the debates all day about GOAT-ness but I think EVERYONE can say that he’s hands-down the best individual contributor ever in the history of the NBA. Overall GOAT? Oh well. We can have all the convos later.
the one true G.O.A.T !!!! Michael Jeffrey Jordan.
I've never watched a highlight reel of a single NBA player that was this amazing. He's just dunking on everybody. It doesn't matter if the defender is 5 feet or 7 feet tall. To visualize MJ today would be a little bit of Kyrie Irving and Ja Morant with Steph Curry. That's the best that I can describe him. Michael played high school basketball without a 3-point line. It wasn't implemented until the 1979/80 season. MJ's Rookie of the Year was in 1984/85. So Michael and other NBA stars were still adapting to it.
Saw ALL these highlights b4 & thought I’d just read the comments..
But Nope..Glued to the tube once again smh😂🤯 #MJ#TheReal23#🐐
lol he’s just DIFFERENT!
18:41 calling Glenn Rice "dude" automatically tells me you're young af😅 all good though. Shoutout to tou though for being one of the few to pause the video and highlight that fake🔥
Glad you finally took the time to acknowledge this video do you'd understand who the TRUE 🐐 is💯 keep up the great work.
lol I feel like I’ve heard than name before … is Glenn rice from Indiana ? I think I’ve heard my pops mention him before . .. aye that ball fake is crazy ! Thanks for watching bro
If you watch this video again, you'll see things you missed the first time 😂😂😂
Ima see lol
13:16 to be exact
Nothing beats a good honest reaction. Excellent video! You might take a look at the "Jordan vs Lebron - The Best GOAT Comparison" video, keeping in mind that vid is 4+ years old. Regardless, the truth is in there. Also, there's a short part of the video that is fuzzy, but it comes back after like 15-20 seconds.
Oops, forgot. That video is by DANGERProductions. Not my channel, just a recommendation.
🔥🔥 definitely will check that out
Guy retires, comes back at the end of the season and drops 55 against the Nicks. You can't even imagine what this guy was like night in and night out. Us Chicagoans were in basketball heaven for all those years.
Yeah that’s just crazy
The term goat was created to describe Air Jordan
Jordan was a true "2 way" player. Perhaps the greatest 2-way player in NBA history. With 10 x scoring champion while being 9x NBA 1st Team all Defense, and 10x NBA All 1st team. The man was a legit threat on all aspects of the court when he played. It was something to watch a player average 30 points a game, and still average 2 steals a game with one on one defensive plays.
Literally the complete package!
Closest to him I ever saw was Kobe…MJ is HIM-my eyes still remember the day he stopped playing…there was just nothing like it…except maybe Kobe
"He really thought the ball was going that way." RJ is seriously funny.
Lmfaooo that ball fake need to be studied🔥🔥😂😂😂
You need to do a deep dive into the stats. One of my faves is that he never even played in a game 7 championship game, and only 3 in any playoff games ever
Yes he was different and I used to watch basketball trying to figure out how to gain that skill set and finally after all these years I figured it out! Not just practice but he reached Christ conscious! His game says it all now! The reason for the nickname Black Jesus💯I didn’t fully understand that moniker when I was a kid but now it makes perfect sense!
The part where he shot six three-pointers in a row all happened in the first half of the same game... in the Finals. The media had been saying he couldn't shoot threes before that game so he decided to show that he could.
He been proving everyone wrong his whole career I see!
Can you Believe he was cut from his Varsity HS team .. Won the NCAA Championship then Became Michael Jordan!The rest is History 💫⭐️
Yeah that’s so crazy to think about !!
I watched the Bird/Magic era, The Jordan era, Kobe era, and the Lebron era. There is nobody like MJ!
I wish you could’ve watched him live as well, it was unlike anything you could even imagine, closest to ever come near him was Kobe
Go watch his defense
🤔BET
@@RjDixonTV there's a video called Michael Jordan best defender You will not believe what you'll see
Gotcha! Ima be doing that one tonight forsure !
Don't forget MJ wasn't just the best for scoring also defending!!!
Imagine watching him live it's 5 seconds on the clock Bulls coming out of time out the whole world watching we know who fin to get the ball. Can he do it again, then yes he hits the game winner again.
That’s what’s crazy! Everyone knew who was getting the rock … but just couldn’t stop it
Young Jordan’s hops are too crazy
Insane!!
@@RjDixonTV everything he does just looks bad ass. lol
Mike was 100% different lol. Thats a fact of life.
They didn't call him Air Jordan for no reason. Some even believe he's an alien.There's more videos of Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is and always will be the G.O.A.T. The 3 pointer wasn't a huge part of the game back in the 80's & 90's
Oh yea I’m definitely gonna be watching more !!!
Don't Let Caitlin Clark Watch Michael Jordan because She Will never be The Same
😂😂😂
Dude, I grew up watching MJ get stupid on the entire NBA. I watched this man live and believe me, he earned the title of Black Jesus!!!
Also, that mid-air reverse against the Lakers in the playoffs is to me, one of the greatest shots ever. The control was insane to do that.
Mann bro he was just DIFFERENT
Caitlin Clark Should watch Michael Jordan The Original GOAT
he made a lot of 3's back in the days he dunked got fouled and+1 from the FT line
He can go all night without shooting one three and then hit one for game winner now that's a shooter that's crazy.
Watch it again and you can tell what year he’s in by. The shoes in the highlights
and yet some dúmb tiktoker claimed that MJ can't go left. clearly he didn't watched this video. this was uploaded years before that slanderous rumor exploded.
Yea must of been a hater ! lol
And that's why TikTok is Card B WAP.
Anyone who thinks James is the GOAT is effing crazy. The artistry of MJ can not be matched
I wish this guy caught the play where MJ missed blocking this guy's shot in mid air with one hand and blocked it with the other hand while he was still in mid air😮 You'll never see another player do that. That's GOAT sh*t right there😂
I reacted to another MJ video and if I’m not mistaken I think I seen that play!! CRAZYY
If I remember correctly Blake Griffen did that too,can't remember who he did it to but I remember yelling jordan block
GOAT..No argument.
I Believe The NBA Still Owes Jordan Back Pay
Mike brakes everyone's ankles. Everyone and anyone who ever tested the boat, the goat found out.
He had bodies dropping!
@@RjDixonTV facts lol
The two. Ledgens. Jordan. And. Bird. Shall. Always. Remain. True. Facts.
There’s not another basketball player that made or makes me not want to miss a single postseason on either end of the court. You knew at some point, in the words of Joe Dumars, “he’s going to do something freaky.” He did it night after night, year after year, against professionals, almost at will.
*Possession
Difference between MJ and any current player is that MJ can and will score anywhere on the court. Modern NBA is guard the 3 and around the basket and you will succeed. No one current has the skillset MJ had, or anywhere close to it.
That’s facts!!
Yeah, man. Mike could get it.
Wait .., what you mean by that? 🤔😂😂😂
Theres no one even today that got that level of hang time and body control
Facts! That’s not even normal that’s why!! 😂😂
