He was simply a nightmare to guard. His combination of physical skills, high basketball IQ, mental toughness, ability to adapt, competitiveness and a will made of iron made him the greatest. There's a reason why everyone compares the next greatest player to MJ. He's the standard by which all are measured.
Fact there is one special player in every Major League sports NBA NFL MLB boxing hockey hockey soccer racing wherever you want to cuddle there is one player that is the god that particular sport God made and blessed him or her to be that iconic feature in Georgia is the face of the NBA from his competitive nature in attributes in achievement and touching people around the world 🌍
Lower case *g* to both, other than that, yeah point taken. It's good to put emphasis on how infinitesimal LeBron's Kingship over the game is when you have someone who's a lower case *g* to the entire sport and will always be a capital G - GOAT
Not God because God is the only God but maybe he is the Son of God maybe he is the fucking black Jesus of BBall because God is the only God and Jordan is her/his Son 😍
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C No youre Wrong Basketball is number 1 period & should be around the globe it got the most fans who loves the game or more you soccer fans think soccer is the best because you must watch it a lot of times how is it number 1 when basket ball score the most points in games played /soccer score less points just like hockey when having A Hard time to the goal line just so you know athletes came famous from the sport like Michael Jordan Magic larry bird kareem charles rodman barkley Shaq kobe bryant Lebron james the great ones who made it in sports Never herd of anybody from soccer who's that famous so But yeah soccer is played more games around the globe But Basketball played in olympics games so thats how it should be the Best sport in the planet
You look back 20 years from now and Jordan is still the greatest you have ever seen, you look back another 20 years before Jordan and Jordan is still the greatest you have ever seen. Looking forward from now 20 years, wonder if Jordans Legacy will remain, because honestly, none of the superstars of today even come close to the high level that Jordan performed at regularly. Some have put in great performances during a game, or over a season or over a playoff run, but none have done it all across the board for their entire careers like Jordan did.
Thank You,thank you very much my friend!I always said,MJ is the best player of all time,nobody can top him.Not Lebron,Kobe & others.One & only Michael the Great Jordan!Greetings from Hungary.
I have followed MJ Since 1985 Deeply since 1987-88 Every time I think I understand his greatness then someone else post a video like this and im puzzled again. What he could do athletically is not humanly possible. Thats why hes compared to super heroes. He defies the laws of nature. Gravity Agility Balance Control Poise Strength Stamina All superhuman The Greatest Athelete Ever!
+Alexandre Achutti Basketball is a sport that encompasses alot of things in its game. Quickness, speed, jumping ability, height, ball-handling, IQ, footwork and strength. Can't say the same for other sports. That might help in the case of MJ being the GOAT of athletes! :D
Jordan in his prime would easily be the most dominant player today. He was that much better than anyone else. You can put him in any era, and he would be the best. A special individual that I had the good fortune to watch. What a player.
Mukoro you are so right. No one ever talks about this. The fact that Jordan stuck it out with his team through the years to reach a championship instead of buying one. The man had it all including integrity
I will always remembered mj was since he entered nba.. I witness his airness such unbelievable player very very unique... Thanks to you mj....ur the GOAT EVER....
I don't fell tired watching MJ's moves over and over again. He's simply the best. In his prime, he will dominate basketball today. OMG, i'm lucky to live in an era where the greatest basketball star played! Long live MJ!
Wow...goosebumps...seeing the true GOAT...his competitiveness..the passion, his love for the sport...great..great..great...never complain about his health, his injury, his fatigue..just play through it...that's greatness...same energy whether facing the worst team or the the best team...thats competitiveness..thats greatness....👑👑👑👑👑👑🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Wow. I can never watch enough of Jordan's dominance. As a Chicago fan, I got to watch almost all of his games in his career. What a treat. I saw his whole career. This is also why I laugh out loud every time I hear a Kobe or Lebron comparison. Those are definitely the best players of their eras, but Jordan was just on a level people can't comprehend. Think of all the legends that Jordan had to go through for his titles, and how good those teams were. Magic, Barkley, Clyde, Payton, Kemp, Malone, Stockton, Reggie, Isaiah, Shaq, Penny, Mourning, Ewing. He didn't team up with them and create a super team. He wanted to beat them all to show how great he is. Not only was Jordan a physical freak of nature, but he was the most skilled player in history. He had no flaws. Out of college, scouting report on Jordan was to make him shoot. But he perfected his shooting. He actually became quite the sharpshooter in the latter parts of his career. And his competitiveness was probably the attribute that contributed the most to his titles. He was a psychopath that was obsessed with winning. One of the most beautiful things in all of sports was when Jordan got hot and took over a game. Never seen anything like it. There is literally nothing that can be done to stop it. He could be having an ok game by the end of the 3rd. Get hot in the 4th and end the game with a win and 50 points. If he hadn't retired, and Bulls management kept the team together, I really do wonder if they would've ran the table in the 90's.
there should be a 1 on 1 game in the all star weekend between superstars. shooting guard vs. shooting guard. center vs center. etc. dat wud be nys i guess. to test who really is greater than who. like james vs. durant LOL
Lebron: "Guys, i have cramps, allow me to seat down!!!" Jordan: "I have a Flu, so what? Let's destroy the Jazz!!!" Lebron is Great, he is undoubtedly one of the best players of all-time, you cannot argue with that, but to say he is greater than MJ, You're kidding me.
Broh its not flu but actually food poisoning. And Isnt +40 mins a game enough for you? Does he have to play the whole 48 mins? But still I dont consider them as the goat's.
Actually it's not a flu. Its hangover from drinking and gambling a night before the game but that doesn't matter. It's hard to play drunk but this man is too good. Plus he have had 30+ points playing with broken finger in his shooting hand. Another one is dunking with a broken foot. What an athlete I must say! A love for game! Best of the best, one and only GOAT!
@@timalejaga2188 it doest sound like compliment, btw a man with a hangover can't run shoot and jump like that otherwise he should've threwup during the game or running zigzag, mj is smart person he knows clearly that they're playing in the finals so no dinking alcohol ti'll they finally beat the jazz, i don't know what kind of comics your reading but the fact that he's playing with a flu is a fact and not some bullshit hoax your talk about
I remember all the stuff about 'witness' Lebron. If you were alive in the nineties, then you know that we all already 'witnessed'. Lebron's not in the conversation with Jordan. You know that game winning shot in game 1 of the cavs/warriors finals that Lebron missed? That shot that he missed... the game goes to overtime... and kyrie breaks his kneecap? Jordan would've made the shot. They would have won game 1. Kyrie and Jordan would've carried the cavs to the championship. And Steph Curry and the warriors would've just shook their heads just like Barkley did, just like Stockton and Malone did. That's the difference between Jordan and Lebron.
It's almost to be expected. There's always a need to see a "second coming" of someone so great. However,we have yet to see it. But people keep looking & comparing. It really needs to stop. Nothing compares!
Michael should go on Dancing with the Stars because his footwork is impeccable!!!!!!! This is a 12 minute video with all kinds of highlights and I didn't see one travel, double dribble, crab dribble, etc. Look through the 'highlights' of some of today's stars and you see nothing but traveling and carrying violations. So many fans focus on what MJ did above the rim and in the air; however, in my opinion, it was just as much about, if not more so, what he did on the ground. His footwork was flawless!!! Although he has some crossovers in this video, many times he beats the defender with a quick first step or jab step or a quick spin move--all good fundamentals moves. Kobe was smart to copy MJ's footwork and moves!
Michael "his Airness" Jordan. What else can be said? Forget about God of basketball...God of sport, period. And by the way, if you watch a playoffs game today and right after, you watch a playoffs game from the 90's or 80's, today's playoffs will look like a practice session in terms of intensity, defense and physicality. It's...it's crazy. It was just another level of basketball.
jerry west and isiah said it best. This guy had no flaw in his game. And when he did, he worked and worked at it so it became his strength. He literally did everything at such an elite level throughout his career #thatstheanswer
Mr. Pound-For-Pound Even Allen Iverson say Michael Jordan is the Best Ever Kobe Bryant says Michael Jordan is the Best Ever Lebron James says Michael Jordan is the Best Ever I watched WGN & Chicago Sports Channel and caught majority of MJ games I saw and still watch Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Kevin Durant and Westbrook but to me as well Michael Jordan is the Best Ever NBA Basketball Player Ever
+Pound-For-Pound Nobody's perfect. For Jordan, I'd say 3-point shooting was his flaw. But he overcame that by what he did inside the 3-point line. Mad respect for the GOAT.
Epic video, poetry in motion, that is why it was hard to see when Jordan had a bad game. But at the end he never gave up and showed us his greatness...nobody will ever be like Mike.
Looks like Michael Jordan was correct when he said there will never be another Mj. This man never lost a finals and never let a finals series go to a game 7 simply godlike man nobody in this era of basketball is on his level not even my fav basketball player kobe is close to him
@@wistiti93420 Nowhere near the perfection this man possesed on the floor, man what a nightmare for other great HOF. Truly graceful and almost realistically GodLike. LeBron is great in his own way, but let's be real I mean seriously, Jordan had the whole complete package!!!! He was truly blessed with those abilities night in night out. Like a machine or somn. Love these videos. Thanks dude. For showing how great he is and was and always will be. #Riplittlebrother#KobeBeanBryant#
After 1998. Kobe was the Goat for 20 years. I mean 20 frickin years man with same team!! How they skip over Kobe like that ?!? LeBron is nowhere near on his level. Let alone MJ! What is going on here 😂😂😂😂 #2ndGoatofAllTime#
Jordan was the perfect combination of agility and power. LeBron has the power but he doesn't have the same agility. Iverson had the agility but he didn't have the same power.
The artistry. The commitment to motion. An unfit person would be easily injured by how he moves. I watch those pivots, those aerial twists and curls. Amazing how he controls his body while being able to push that ball accurately through that hoop. God how I miss MJ. How he takes off and somehow stays up there but still somehow manages to lang unscathed. Spectacular!
Just seeing the first minute had me fired up. Bringing back memories man. Awesome video. Alot of these youngsters just dont realize how good Jordan was & why he is definitely the GOAT.
I think 97-98 is definitely Jordan's most underrated year. Personally I'd have to pick 1992 Jordan if I could go back in time and pick one year. However, 97-98 his fundamentals and footwork were just insane. He was just one step ahead of everyone mentally that year.
SandersRobin24 Yeah 97-98 was amazing. Mike was running on fumes, coming of 2 straight finals, at age 35. His team suffered some key injuries (Pippen missed half the season and was never the same). MJ himself played the whole year with an injured hand, that really affected his shooting. That year was truly a testament of MJs greatness and desire to win. It truly is an underrated year for Jordan, as you say.
Rafael Mertin Individually, not accounting stats, which can be misleading, my favorite version of MJ, was from the 91-92 season. He was stronger than in 90-91, and more athletic than in 92-93. His midrange game was peaking at that point, and he was still penetrating like crazy. And he was trusting his teamates more than ever before, and wasnt trying to drop 35 every game, the game seamed to easy for his at that point. But its the perfect balance between driving to the hoop and his mid-range game along with glimpses of his outstanding post game, that make the 91-92 season MJ, my favorite ever.
SandersRobin24 I agree. I always wonder what would happen if you gave MJ his incredible smarts/footwork from 97 and on in his prime years… it would be simply unbelievable. Anyway, I take 1992 MJ as well, though late 80's MJ's defense was ridiculous. Young MJ was the best inside game we have ever seen, but what people don't realize now is that later MJ is the best midrange we've ever seen. That's amazing to have both.
Go ahead and name a player with better inside game than 89 Jordan, and go ahead and name better midrange. Seriously. He hit fades consistently with double teams.
Hahaha he tried but failed! His been Lebroom by the gsw, so the debate is over even kobe stated that he doesn't have the mentality and determination to be a legend!
I grew up watching Kobe and Lebron and they were my idols until i saw MJ video clips from youtube. Honestly this guy is different. I keep on watching his clips and i am never tire. He is unique. I wish i was born in his time and watch his real play. Must be amazing. I am Kobe and Lebron fan but honestly they will never impact the court as MJ. He is too awesome. You just fall inlove with him.
Somehow, like Jordan, you found ways to make yourself better even when the standard you've set is already higher than anything anyone has seen before. Keep up the great work man. This videos motivate the shit out of me lol
He play against better teams and better players and a it was a game that I missed so much because it was more defensive and hard hitting every day not like the game I see today
I love watching this video. Especially the the 1st act road to 3peat. That song "Experience" by Ludivico Einaudi and the interview audio makes those clips to me even better.
Im so happy i came up in the Jordan era...i witnessed his greatness his whole career, i grew up in chicago, im so glad i did...i just get misty eyed watchin theez highlights, this was watchin a GOD literally....WHY DO PPL TRY TO COMPARE ANY1 TO HIM, PLEEZ STOP IT!!!
Jerry West nailed it on the head. What makes MJ special is his actual skill level. People always point out his physical gifts or his competitiveness and seem to forget that this guy was extremely skilled and could literally do it all.
What a wonderful video..this video just proves his dominance offensively and defensively..he will be the best ever to play..I'm glad I had a chance to watch he play in person..one being the game after they won 70 games..
I knew when he was playing that this was something unprecedented. something that will not come around again honestly his impact on the game is so great that the game misses him. goat
The look in Jordans eyes when he is having words with opponents is soul snatching !!! Almost like don't look away from me cause the refs your coach your team not even the league can save you from what I'm about to do !!!!
Frankly, there's no one dominant enough in the game right now that you have to double team them constantly. MJ and Shaq were that. No one is nearly as dominant as those guys… right now.
bledredwine this is what the NBA is missing right now, in my personal opinion the game is too easy, the defense is almost irrelevant, sure they make spectacular blocks and there's some good defensive pressure, but it isn't the same. Like Hubie says, if teams run good sets in todays nba like they did in Jordans day and prior, scoring is just too easy. I rather see a tough competitive game at both ends, than see who can produce the best offensive night.
What?? Dude, during the playoffs, the Heat constantly doubled and trapped Rose. In Kobe's time, he was doubled all of the time because when you have an offensive force that unstoppable, you must get the ball out of his hands.
Moon Man That's a huge myth. THere's an interview post-game where MJ states "They played zone defense which made it easy for me to get to the rim" … which I could find it.
why jordan is great? set aside the facts that he's a champion, when jordan played he didn't fear anybody, he has no doubts if you watch his interviews it seems as if no one else really bothers him at all he may say great things about his opponents but he's never really feared anyone it's the other way around just being on the floor with michael and playing against him is already intimidating even more so when he handles and shoots the ball. the will to win, killer instinct, the fearlessness it's what makes him the most superior basketball player set aside the championships and the air jordan he's just too intimidating to play with.
boypula and Pippen was just as fearless, which is why these two guys won two trimesters of championships with two completely different rosters! These two guys go down in history as the greatest duo in every important way imaginable... trash talking and the overall psychological edge, stamina, incredible defense and offense, hybrid athletes matching up against practically anyone when needed on defensive switches, crunch time defense and offense like no other tandem ever, deadly fast break defense, and spectacular fast break offense incomparable to any other tandem that ever played the game - it is these things alone (along with help of Winter and Jackson) that make these two guys 6 for 6 in the finals without ever seeing a game 7 LOL
This young generation has absolutely no clue what glorious days these were. We just shake our heads when we see kids trying to compare. There is no comparison.
Do you see the way Mike scores with both hands he never misses inside the pank I seen LeBron miss 15 layups in the playoffs he missed ever left hand layup he attempted
Even though I always rooted against him because I always went with the underdog because my Celtic teams were not that good when he started to win championships. I look back now and can never get tired of his highlights and appreciate his greatness, never went to a 7th game in the finals and he never lost at the highest level 6-0. A lot of dudes would have rings today if Mike never played and I don't think anybody will ever be able to even come close. Kobe might be the closest and I really don't think Lebron will ever be able to touch his greatness because he is 2-4 in the Finals now and even if he did get 6 rings like Mike, I probably will still roll with Jordan. Plus Lebron wouldn't have been able to handle all of the physicality of the 80's and 90's, if you took it to the hole against certain teams, you would get knocked down hard. I'm just grateful I got to see the GOAT play at the old Boston Garden back in 1991, his title is safe.
He was simply a nightmare to guard. His combination of physical skills, high basketball IQ, mental toughness, ability to adapt, competitiveness and a will made of iron made him the greatest. There's a reason why everyone compares the next greatest player to MJ. He's the standard by which all are measured.

Looks like Michael Jordan was correct when he said there will never be another Mj. This man never lost a finals and never let a finals series go to a game 7 simply godlike man nobody in this era of basketball is on his level not even my fav basketball player kobe is close to him
Bro 5 to 6 kinda close but lebron on the other hand no where near
Denilson De La Rose lebron lose 4 times in finals jordan never in 6 times and always the final mvp ....so where is he near ???i dont see it
@@wistiti93420 Nowhere near the perfection this man possesed on the floor, man what a nightmare for other great HOF. Truly graceful and almost realistically GodLike. LeBron is great in his own way, but let's be real I mean seriously, Jordan had the whole complete package!!!! He was truly blessed with those abilities night in night out. Like a machine or somn. Love these videos. Thanks dude. For showing how great he is and was and always will be. #Riplittlebrother#KobeBeanBryant#
After 1998. Kobe was the Goat for 20 years. I mean 20 frickin years man with same team!! How they skip over Kobe like that ?!? LeBron is nowhere near on his level. Let alone MJ! What is going on here 😂😂😂😂
#2ndGoatofAllTime#
Kobe is real close to Jordan. They played exactly the same.
MJ had one of the quickest first step in NBA history
thisjointisloose mj's footwork is unbelievable...watching him move so smooth and seems like there is no gravity when he was running or jumping
thisjointisloose
Probably the quickest...in his athletic prime.
thisjointisloose He and Iverson. I think Iverson had the quickest with MJ at #2
Jordan was the perfect combination of agility and power. LeBron has the power but he doesn't have the same agility. Iverson had the agility but he didn't have the same power.
Drew Filson Good point. Jordan was far more balanced than Lebron.
Amazing level of production. I truly appreciate growing up watching MJ and the bulls!
one word: beautiful.
Holy shit bro this was a magnificent production. The GOAT deserves excellence like this. Great job.
godfather of footwork
Tim Summers
Closet thing i seen was Kobe and Hakeem Olajuwon.
The artistry. The commitment to motion. An unfit person would be easily injured by how he moves. I watch those pivots, those aerial twists and curls. Amazing how he controls his body while being able to push that ball accurately through that hoop. God how I miss MJ. How he takes off and somehow stays up there but still somehow manages to lang unscathed. Spectacular!
Michael Jordan is the GOAT
He is God of the goats
Just seeing the first minute had me fired up. Bringing back memories man. Awesome video. Alot of these youngsters just dont realize how good Jordan was & why he is definitely the GOAT.
I will forever be grateful I got to watch him play live
After watching this I feel like I owe you $10 or something, really great footage the editing the music and quotes
I think 97-98 is definitely Jordan's most underrated year. Personally I'd have to pick 1992 Jordan if I could go back in time and pick one year. However, 97-98 his fundamentals and footwork were just insane. He was just one step ahead of everyone mentally that year.
Ya also that second 3 peat the Bulls were so good he'd sometimes come out of the game because they would have such huge leads.
SandersRobin24 Yeah 97-98 was amazing. Mike was running on fumes, coming of 2 straight finals, at age 35. His team suffered some key injuries (Pippen missed half the season and was never the same). MJ himself played the whole year with an injured hand, that really affected his shooting.
That year was truly a testament of MJs greatness and desire to win. It truly is an underrated year for Jordan, as you say.
Rafael Mertin
Individually, not accounting stats, which can be misleading, my favorite version of MJ, was from the 91-92 season. He was stronger than in 90-91, and more athletic than in 92-93. His midrange game was peaking at that point, and he was still penetrating like crazy. And he was trusting his teamates more than ever before, and wasnt trying to drop 35 every game, the game seamed to easy for his at that point. But its the perfect balance between driving to the hoop and his mid-range game along with glimpses of his outstanding post game, that make the 91-92 season MJ, my favorite ever.
SandersRobin24 I agree. I always wonder what would happen if you gave MJ his incredible smarts/footwork from 97 and on in his prime years… it would be simply unbelievable. Anyway, I take 1992 MJ as well, though late 80's MJ's defense was ridiculous. Young MJ was the best inside game we have ever seen, but what people don't realize now is that later MJ is the best midrange we've ever seen. That's amazing to have both.
Go ahead and name a player with better inside game than 89 Jordan, and go ahead and name better midrange. Seriously. He hit fades consistently with double teams.
One of the best Michael Jordan clips I've seen to date, well done!
These slowmos are brilliant. You can see his every move and defense on him by his opponents.
never get bored by Jordan's video
Even legends said MJ is the best they have ever seen performed .. No wonder LeBron would never be like Mike. 😀✌
right right right!
Hahaha he tried but failed! His been Lebroom by the gsw, so the debate is over even kobe stated that he doesn't have the mentality and determination to be a legend!
@@cheezlayer when did Kobe say that jeez
@@BasketballHighway19 I think he must of saw it in one of the interviews But Lebron would have if he woulda play like Jordan or Kobe both
G.O.A.T
This "who am I "conversations is very Inspirational
Absolutely fantastic video. It captured perfectly who he was and how good he was. Editing was outstanding. Great job!
I grew up watching Kobe and Lebron and they were my idols until i saw MJ video clips from youtube. Honestly this guy is different. I keep on watching his clips and i am never tire. He is unique. I wish i was born in his time and watch his real play. Must be amazing. I am Kobe and Lebron fan but honestly they will never impact the court as MJ. He is too awesome. You just fall inlove with him.
And still the best that we ever saw.
Somehow, like Jordan, you found ways to make yourself better even when the standard you've set is already higher than anything anyone has seen before. Keep up the great work man. This videos motivate the shit out of me lol
Genius. Exquisite editing. Magnificently put together. Thank you.
He play against better teams and better players and a it was a game that I missed so much because it was more defensive and hard hitting every day not like the game I see today
+1
Yeah players today are actors and flop queens! Hate to see them overeact for a little tap, Lebroom! Know hows it done, best!
I love watching this video. Especially the the 1st act road to 3peat. That song "Experience" by Ludivico Einaudi and the interview audio makes those clips to me even better.
MJ FTW! 23 marked my youth, I never lost a single Chicago game. It was something to see.
ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL PLAYER
Amazing. One of the best Jordan mix I've ever seen. A lor of different angles of every play, great timing, great slow mo.... Great work!
Um. Isiah Thomas, in addition to his stamina, which is true, don't forget the most obvious thing about Michael Jordan - HIS MOVES BABY!!!!
Not a single waste of ball,wrong move, pass, not a single bad shot, etc…Blessed to be able to watch him playing live…Another great video dude…👌🤝
Im so happy i came up in the Jordan era...i witnessed his greatness his whole career, i grew up in chicago, im so glad i did...i just get misty eyed watchin theez highlights, this was watchin a GOD literally....WHY DO PPL TRY TO COMPARE ANY1 TO HIM, PLEEZ STOP IT!!!
The Villain lol I get choked up also. Kids today don’t get it.
Michael Jordan is the best tricking player I've ever seen
You're amazing man, lucky to have you here.
Jerry West nailed it on the head. What makes MJ special is his actual skill level. People always point out his physical gifts or his competitiveness and seem to forget that this guy was extremely skilled and could literally do it all.
I just give thanks god for have the chance to have seen play.
Juan Pablo Romero meeeee 2
Gracias por estos recuerdos hermosos de mi vida nunca jamás habrá o existirá otro michael Jordán en el basquetbol de la NBA nunca.
Just when I thought you forgot about us, you give us this great video. Thanks
I could never stop watching mj,he is the greatest no one could ever match him
Great Great Video
I like this one a lot
That speech got my pumped up lol
Keep them coming baw !
What a wonderful video..this video just proves his dominance offensively and defensively..he will be the best ever to play..I'm glad I had a chance to watch he play in person..one being the game after they won 70 games..
Iconic...global icon! The GOD of basketball...the 🐐
The most intense player i ever saw
Love this, I was convinced I'd exhausted all MJ footage but there was some new stuff here I'd never seen. Cool score too!
I knew when he was playing that this was something unprecedented. something that will not come around again honestly his impact on the game is so great that the game misses him. goat
Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player I've ever watched. Fantastic video
don't compare Michael Jordan.....everybody knows that MJ is a G.O.A.T. greatest of all times..nobody can break his records
Fans praise their favorite players. Legends praise Jordan...THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE!
Definitely a basketball god.
amazing..greatest player of all time.
the one and ONLY thing I hated during the Michael Jordan era(I know why) is he wasn't on NBA JAM
Wilson Pereira is that the game on sega 64bit?
such a beautiful video man. great work!!
The look in Jordans eyes when he is having words with opponents is soul snatching !!! Almost like don't look away from me cause the refs your coach your team not even the league can save you from what I'm about to do !!!!
The GOAT is no other than MiChael Jordan. You are my super idol.
When the tongue is out! you better watch out! You know MJ is about to do something Amazing!
For the 1st time in my life. I agree with ISIAH
Frankly, there's no one dominant enough in the game right now that you have to double team them constantly. MJ and Shaq were that. No one is nearly as dominant as those guys… right now.
bledredwine this is what the NBA is missing right now, in my personal opinion the game is too easy, the defense is almost irrelevant, sure they make spectacular blocks and there's some good defensive pressure, but it isn't the same. Like Hubie says, if teams run good sets in todays nba like they did in Jordans day and prior, scoring is just too easy. I rather see a tough competitive game at both ends, than see who can produce the best offensive night.
What?? Dude, during the playoffs, the Heat constantly doubled and trapped Rose. In Kobe's time, he was doubled all of the time because when you have an offensive force that unstoppable, you must get the ball out of his hands.
Moon Man That's a huge myth. THere's an interview post-game where MJ states "They played zone defense which made it easy for me to get to the rim" … which I could find it.
and by the way, zone means no double teams. = Easy. They have zone now because bigmen can't camp in the lane.
They did dude. I just provided proof.
why jordan is great? set aside the facts that he's a champion, when jordan played he didn't fear anybody, he has no doubts if you watch his interviews it seems as if no one else really bothers him at all he may say great things about his opponents but he's never really feared anyone it's the other way around just being on the floor with michael and playing against him is already intimidating even more so when he handles and shoots the ball. the will to win, killer instinct, the fearlessness it's what makes him the most superior basketball player set aside the championships and the air jordan he's just too intimidating to play with.
boypula and Pippen was just as fearless, which is why these two guys won two trimesters of championships with two completely different rosters! These two guys go down in history as the greatest duo in every important way imaginable... trash talking and the overall psychological edge, stamina, incredible defense and offense, hybrid athletes matching up against practically anyone when needed on defensive switches, crunch time defense and offense like no other tandem ever, deadly fast break defense, and spectacular fast break offense incomparable to any other tandem that ever played the game - it is these things alone (along with help of Winter and Jackson) that make these two guys 6 for 6 in the finals without ever seeing a game 7 LOL
That’ll never gets old watching Mike!
Why doesn't the NBA change their Jerry West logo to the MJ Jumpman one?
Because Jordan doesn't want it changed. They already asked him
my eye are watery after watching greatness achieve more greatness the best ever...mj
Just as I remember. Amazing!!!!
Great job again thanks to all.. But ım still waitin for Jordan's video about crossover and jab step abilites
還有誰 如此強大 偉大的運動員 看他的動作 動人 華麗 無與倫比 MY GOAT FOREVER ~~~
The Best Player Of All Time..!!
This young generation has absolutely no clue what glorious days these were. We just shake our heads when we see kids trying to compare. There is no comparison.
I will believe where others have doubted... wow powerful so good
At the start of the video, you can notice by the look on his face, it's like he's about to eat his opponents up.Simply the greatest.
The G.O.A.T 🐐His Airness💕🔥🐐🔥
Damn mj never had a weakness at all 🙏🏼
Do you see the way Mike scores with both hands he never misses inside the pank I seen LeBron miss 15 layups in the playoffs he missed ever left hand layup he attempted
MJ very very EXCELLENT Chicago Bull's,... we love you ALL guys,..🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀👊👊👊👊👊👊❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝💪💪💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍👍
El mejor video de michael jordan que he visto en mi vida. Realmente espectacular.
That last instrumental is 🔥🔥🔥
God of Elegance
unreachable
Even though I always rooted against him because I always went with the underdog because my Celtic teams were not that good when he started to win championships. I look back now and can never get tired of his highlights and appreciate his greatness, never went to a 7th game in the finals and he never lost at the highest level 6-0. A lot of dudes would have rings today if Mike never played and I don't think anybody will ever be able to even come close. Kobe might be the closest and I really don't think Lebron will ever be able to touch his greatness because he is 2-4 in the Finals now and even if he did get 6 rings like Mike, I probably will still roll with Jordan. Plus Lebron wouldn't have been able to handle all of the physicality of the 80's and 90's, if you took it to the hole against certain teams, you would get knocked down hard. I'm just grateful I got to see the GOAT play at the old Boston Garden back in 1991, his title is safe.
the shots are just mesmerizing, thanks for sharing
