guarantee no one else would be able to get away with being this arrogant. certainly not lebron. if lebron said "I got out of the east to let someone else make the finals" he would get so much backlash.
@@imsljr420 Yeah because LeBron isn't as charismatic. So if he said it, it wouldn't be taken as a joking sort of statement. Like, why is it a surprise that people can charmingly/charismatically joke about being good at it, but if they say it in a serious way people won't like it?
@@imsljr420 What do you mean IF? He hasn't said exactly that but He's said some pretty cocky stuff that fell completely flat like the whole "playoff mode" thing where he preceded to activate himself out of the playoffs, LeBron was way more likable before all the trying too hard stuff like that and the "make sure you record me while reading the Malcom X book" crap.
He is such a perfect specimen of a human being/basketball player. No bad angle on and off the court, be it action or still, every shot is poster worthy.
As far as being a phenomenon, Jordan was on the level of Michael Jackson... literally. That's why he got that applause. I mean, come on, he's in New York!
@@BigWiltonWilt Jordan forsure dude. His shoes are selling better than ever, his name is always recognized next to greatness where as jackson was just known as king of pop, and the number 23 is probably the most popular number in the world lol. All that plus even his rival teams crowds would give him a standing ovation. Oh, and everytime micheal jackson is mentioned so is his pedophilia, when MJ is mentioned all you can talk about his greatness weather its his shoes, his career, or his dedication to the game of basketball. He will be remembered much longer than Michael jackson, no doubt. His popularity is already going down as we speak, especially with that documentary out about his neverland ranch
@@BigWiltonWilt Well, let's see. I'd say Michael Jordan is far, FAR more iconic, considering how he's never been an ugly, boy-loving wacko who hangs babies off balconies, gets plastic surgery 500 million times, and thinks he's Peter Pan. :'D
@Troll God Troll: Whose people? The ones that paid their entrance fee for the tickets? The season ticket holders? His coaches? His real support system: family, relatives, managers, teachers? His advertisement promotion team? I hope that "his people" were not the ones hindering him, nor couldn't give a wank before he was great, or hoping for a trickle down from the sweat of *HIS* brow?!
For those of you who don't know ,that is the late Bijan Pakzad . the Iranian millionaire fashion designer . Makes me proud as an Iranian to see he was close friends with MJ.
So many prophecies fulfilled watching this in 2019. Phil went to the Lakers then the Knicks and MJ bought the Hornets. Crazy. I’m only 5 mins into this interview.
4:19 Leno mentioned Jackson going to the Lakers and Jordan said, "Maybe" and that he had a feeling that if Phil coaches again that Rodman would be playing for him. Leno then mentioned, "Knicks maybe" and Jordan replied "maybe". If you're going to say anyone predicted Jackson to the Lakers and Knicks from that conversation, it would be Leno. Jordan's "prediction" about Rodman was also incorrect.
81 holes in one day!!?? For any non-golfers out there, that is an insane amount of golf. It typically takes 3-4 hours to play 18 holes on average if you're playing with a couple other guys. I was a club pro for about 10 years, and have never heard of anyone playing that much in a single day. I played 54 one time and was utterly exhausted. The man is a freak of nature.
@@vika0194 Why would he lie?! You are talking about a guy who sleeps 4 hours per night, tops. Consider that he was on the golf court from the start of the daylight to the end of it. Stopped for a couple of hours to eat and Jordan being Jordan, he got in the zone, obcessed by improving his technic. It all fits quite well, actually.
F C doesn’t matter. Have you played golf? Do you even realise how exhausting 18 holes is? Forget 81. So you seriously think he played about 16 hours of golf in 24 hours?
If you watch some interviews about the ‘92 Olympic Dream Team, the players talk about how Michael got up to play golf every day, even before the games, play the basketball game, then stay up late playing cards or just be up hanging out. And he did that the entire trip while winning a gold medal. Knowing that, it doesn’t surprise me he could manage to play 81 holes of golf in a day while freshly retired and still in elite pro athletic shape. Remember this interview is before he made his comeback with the Wizards, so he’s still a phenom athlete here.
Or they are the ones that are "haters" like Dr J, Isiah Thomas, etc...... It kills them to give credit when its so obvious to everyone else!! Amen brother....
@@lamardogmatic3864 well he played almost 12 full seasons of 82 games each season. Only 1 season he broke his foot in 1986 and in 2002 he had knee surgery and 1995 cameback with 17 games left in the season. . If you put that into context and look at a player like Lebron James who has been in the NBA 17 seasons, he has only played 1 season a full 82 games. Add Jordans 3 years at North Carolina and the man had miles on those knees!
There was no where to go to. Phil was with LA and they were the best team. He wasn’t gonna jump on a super team and be 2nd or 3rd guy. He knew Lakers were gonna dominate so he would’ve just returned for a 2nd round exit
So funny not depressing like today when all they do is bash the President and tell us how we should live, back then they had great guests and made us laugh. Michael Jordan is the GOAT
@@NicoMambino The President can work the media inside and out. He has an unorthodox presidential style which can confound the press; ultra-deep with his savvy, flamboyance, and simultaneously staid, stoic and sensible to transact serious presidential situations. Prior to his presidency, he was a media star and knows the ropes. He is an open book of which no skeletons can exit his non-existent closet. The dung the Democrats deliver, a duck's back is his integument, to the dismay of his adversaries. Trump's victory is totally embraced. It was bound to happen with _Hillary's hilarious silly things she does and says._
A year after winning 6 titles...they still cheer for the guy. The "I'm not worthy kowtowing" in the crowd...LeBron would never get that reaction today. Not remotely close.
Top 10 of all time in my opinion: 1. Michael Jordan 2. Magic Johnson 3. Kareem Abdul-Jabar 4. Bill Russell 5. Larry Bird 6. Kobe Bryant 7. Wilt Chamberlain 8. Shaquille O'Neal 9. LeBron James 10. Isiah Thomas
SN2903 Hakeem Olajuwon is better than everyone from #4 and down. Also move Lebron into top 5 because he’s already there and thats where he will undoubtedly be in everyone’s eyes by the time he retires.
a healthy man's prime is around that age anyways, most people think its at age 21, when that is only the age that the brain has its fastest proccessing speed but other hormonal factors come into play around 32. They even say that the age of men in Paradise will be 33
If you really think about it, at that time, every basketball player or anyone who dreamed to play basketball, wanted to be like Mike. Kobe was a smart, energetic kid when he arrived at the NBA. It was clear that Kobe had a better 3 point shoot/ habit than Jordan, but on everything else, Jordan was absolutly superior in every way. To Kobe and to the entire league. Kobe recognized that and understood that the best way to reach the level he aspired to was simply by learning with the recognized, without any doubt at the time, best basketball player of all time. So Kobe was psicotic with it, driven even, and emulated Jordan in every way he could. If Kobe was given the choise, he would trade all his skills and basketball knowledge for Jordan's know-how and skill. In fact, Kobe did just that as he changed completly the way he played and approached the game. First game between both was a spark for Kobe and Jordan, unlike people like to portrait, was man enough to take Kobe under his wind and help in every way he could. What you saw Kobe do is quite normal since people always try to emulate behaviors of their idols.
what what Hakeem the Dream is a Legend in every right. But when you win 3 straight championships, leave for about 2 years and come right back and win 3 more straight.. it’s safe to say you would’ve won those two rings in between.
