Can you believe MJ was the first player to have a a triple Double in an Allstar game? The allstar games back then were not layup lines. The players wanted to compete against the best of the best. This is during a time when the allstars actually played defense and wanted to actually win the game.
Michael Jordan was among the best players in the NBA before the draft started in the summer of 84’. By 89’ MJ had two TOP 5 ALLTIME seasons outputs and was arguably the greatest player anyone had seen. This is before his dynastic runs.
Each All Star game J and Isaiah played their connection on the court was unbelievable. Isaiah was once quoted that if he played with J they would have won multiple championships. Isaiah's jealousy prevented this from ever happening.
False, the 1985 all star game is his second year in the league, He was injured 3 games into the year and played on limited minutes, so he only was able to average 19.5 a game cause of his limited minutes.
I noticed that too but the graphic was actually wrong in the video - MJ was averaging 27.4 points before the 1985 Allstar game. He picked it up to 29.3 after the Allstar break to finish with an average of 28.2.
2:26 look at Rolando Blackman actually trying to deny Michael Jordan in the All Star Game. YES THIS USED TO HAPPEN IN THE ASG FOLKS! Now its just a layup line drill.
1988 Michael Jordan was really something special, not that he wasnt any other year but that year his physical abilities were on full display the guy was superhuman. He got better skillfully every year after, but physically he was absolutely insane in the 1988 game.
Look at the intensity, that’s what fans want to see, the best players competing. Not that 200 points dumpster fire played by dudes who don’t want to be there.
All-Star game in the 90's and early 2000's are way more exciting than today's ASG. You'll really see the defense and competitiveness of all the stars, yet they still had fun.
9:52 I can tell you no matter how much hatred Isiah Thomas and Michael Jordan carries for each other, that sequence would always be special because that a Chicago native throwing the ball to a Chicago sports legend for the dunk. They stole the show in 1988.
From playing with Dr. J, Magic, Bird all the way through all the 90s up to Dirk, Kobe and Iverson Jordan truly did his thing against all greats, and just got better and better every season.. let’s stop normalizing this goat debate.. this video proves its MJ then everybody else…
The current NBA All-Stars along with the current commissioner should be forced to watch this! It's no secret why today's all-star weekend is terrible! Granted Michael is 61, but all of the best players were out there giving a genuine effort! Today's NBA doesn't come close to what we saw here!
Ah, yes- when high scores were the exception to just All Star Games and it wasn't because the "all stars" were letting each other score but rather because the players were really good even with the high intensity defense. And there were hard fought rivalries, and not just players showing off if they can shoot from half court. The modern All Star Game is truly pathetic in comparison.
The all star jersey he played in his rookie season and then his last game in the all star game is monumental. This man was the beginning and the end of basketball. This era of basketball has great lazy talent and sit out during games when most of them are not even hurt but a charity case. Pretty sad. R.I.P. to the NBA and David Stern! 😢
22:21 back when you Could work elbows knees n shoulders in the Paint!!!! Steph driving to the rim an alot others wouldn't last driving to tht paint EwinG Sir Charles The Mailman Hakeem the dream Charles Oakley an many more the no fly zone!!! Where these flopping softee icecream players whe Got now Lebron!!!!
In the third all star game he got a steal on Karl Malone brought it down for the dunk an in the finals got the steal Malone brought it down for the game winner the joe dumars to Jordan off the one bounce @16:27 was sick 😅
Thanks for this video! At least we can watch old games on youtube and enjoy real players playing basketball instead of that circus of 3 point attempts they call the All star game these days, played by spoiled multi millionaires that in spite of their supposedly superior skills and athleticism they are afraid of getting hurt so instead of the best basketball sparring contest between stars it has become a horrific display of nothingness
This would be considered playoff intensity in todays game..
The All-Star Game in the 90s was so much more exciting than today’s game. thank you 🥰
But but but 3 pointer from halfcourt cool
ASG in the 90's was must-see TV
Exactly
@@MadPaperMario 😂 trolling
finally something I can watch during this all star weekend

MJ is the GOAT
Same Here
Lebron james
No s**t lol
Lebron
But but Lebron was the best player in the NBA for like 3 seasons 10 years ago!!
Michael Jordan was among the best players in the NBA before the draft started in the summer of 84’.
By 89’ MJ had two TOP 5 ALLTIME seasons outputs and was arguably the greatest player anyone had seen.
This is before his dynastic runs.
1988 MJ won damn near every individual award. Scoring title, MVP, Defensive Player of The Year, Steals Leader, and so on.
This is amazing! Thanks for posting more footage of the GOAT! 🐐
FAVORITE michael jordan fact:
10x scoring champion
9x all defensive 1st team
2x 3peat
DPOY while leading the league in scoring *
@@Supasmoove that too
Led the league in steals 3x as well. Just incredible
Thank you FreeDawkins! We need to be reminded why MJ was so great!
Each All Star game J and Isaiah played their connection on the court was unbelievable. Isaiah was once quoted that if he played with J they would have won multiple championships. Isaiah's jealousy prevented this from ever happening.
The greatest of all time period

Lebron 😊

Man was averaging 19 a game before the all star break his rookie year then bumped it to 28.2 Dammmnnnn! Thank you Zeke, Iceman!!!

@@YEGGS_1No that's happen in MJ second year in 86.
Ikr, that's crazy!
@@YEGGS_1 false!!! His rookie year is the 84-85 season he was injured his second season.

The very reason why those were the Golden Years Period in every Art form Basketball Hip-hop etc and Salute to kinfolk Michael Jordan✅
Wow, you really miss and appreciate more the COMPETITIVE basketball back then, especially in the all star game.
MJ all day 🐐
2:26 look at Rolando Blackman actually trying to deny Michael Jordan in the All Star Game. YES THIS USED TO HAPPEN IN THE ASG FOLKS! Now its just a layup line drill.
Back when players actually had pride and competed in the All-Star Game
🐐 If you witnessed it, its NO DEBATE!!!!
15:37 these kind of sequences are making me miss the late 80s and early 90s NBA.
How can ANYONE get compared to Michael Jordan? He is the goat 🐐
Watching this made me realize. How dope Isiah n Jordan or penny n Jordan would’ve been as a team especially Isiah fr
6:43 Brad Daugherty was one of the most underrated players of that era. One of the best passing bigs during that era.
Sucks he had back issues
1988 Michael Jordan was really something special, not that he wasnt any other year but that year his physical abilities were on full display the guy was superhuman. He got better skillfully every year after, but physically he was absolutely insane in the 1988 game.
I Miss *Defense* In The *ASG’s*
& I Definitely Miss *MIKE* 💯
Isaiah and Mike have mad beef but their link up play was AMAZING!!!! them on the same team😮
Wow thanks freedawkins. These are some good quality/resolution videos.
Sad they beefed. Isiah and Mike would have been the most unstoppable backcourt in history
That's true, but mj refused to back down, even when the pistons had the Jordan rules he just got up and went at them again
MJ was a literal BULL. once he sees RED. he won't stop charging.
and Isiah was a HOUND. would literally bite you whenever he sees a chance.
The 37th All Star Game was INSANE!! Oh and MJ is the 🐐!!!
My goodness, didn't know 'plumbers' could play so well and entertaining.
Look at the intensity, that’s what fans want to see, the best players competing. Not that 200 points dumpster fire played by dudes who don’t want to be there.
See, this is what I'm talking about. REAL All-star bball!!!
All-Star game in the 90's and early 2000's are way more exciting than today's ASG. You'll really see the defense and competitiveness of all the stars, yet they still had fun.
Damn Thomas can really throw dimes!
No wasted movements, no million dribbles for players during this era. So satisfying to watch
9:52 I can tell you no matter how much hatred Isiah Thomas and Michael Jordan carries for each other, that sequence would always be special because that a Chicago native throwing the ball to a Chicago sports legend for the dunk. They stole the show in 1988.
45 spectacular minutes to start an amazing day. Appreciate that.👌
This video is a powerful reminder that with determination and perseverance, anything is possible! 🌟🏋♂ You're a true inspiration! 💥
❤❤❤❤❤ thank you for posting this. O.M.G. OG. 😎 😎 😎. You see the growth every appearance. Right on with the right on.
Listen to those crowds.... People actually loved the All Star games!
The look bird gave barkley after that buzzer beater. 😂
From playing with Dr. J, Magic, Bird all the way through all the 90s up to Dirk, Kobe and Iverson Jordan truly did his thing against all greats, and just got better and better every season.. let’s stop normalizing this goat debate.. this video proves its MJ then everybody else…
17:08 lmao "that does not look easy to ANY mortal!"
under the rim reverse lay ups godam unstoppable 🐐
6:14 one of the best individual games in All Star game history.
Thank u so much for this I love it
Throw back allstar games they ballin 4real 😊
90's era....... The best basketball.........
damn I forgot how stacked that 96 East team was.. gotta be one of the greatest all-star lineup
39:17 watching this back, you cant help but get emotional that Kobe is the one who is no longer here with us.
When the all star game was sumn special ✌🏾
25:45 what vision by Terry Porter.
The current NBA All-Stars along with the current commissioner should be forced to watch this! It's no secret why today's all-star weekend is terrible! Granted Michael is 61, but all of the best players were out there giving a genuine effort! Today's NBA doesn't come close to what we saw here!
8:17 great pick and roll action with a tough screen by Larry Bird. Would have been a great tandem them two.
38:21 jordan’s spin move was too smooth🔥🔥
4:39 what a game!
Goat 🐐
44:17 if only Jermaine O'Neal did not foul on that shot.
Isiah and MJ played so great together
Ah, yes- when high scores were the exception to just All Star Games and it wasn't because the "all stars" were letting each other score but rather because the players were really good even with the high intensity defense. And there were hard fought rivalries, and not just players showing off if they can shoot from half court.
The modern All Star Game is truly pathetic in comparison.
14:24 what a pass by Isiah.
When Allstar Games played defense. Jordan played those games like they were playoff games.
They all did. Pride, beefs, egos, fame, will to win, everything was thrown in there.
The all star jersey he played in his rookie season and then his last game in the all star game is monumental. This man was the beginning and the end of basketball. This era of basketball has great lazy talent and sit out during games when most of them are not even hurt but a charity case. Pretty sad. R.I.P. to the NBA and David Stern! 😢
Today nba allstars should watch this game
22:21 back when you Could work elbows knees n shoulders in the Paint!!!! Steph driving to the rim an alot others wouldn't last driving to tht paint EwinG Sir Charles The Mailman Hakeem the dream Charles Oakley an many more the no fly zone!!! Where these flopping softee icecream players whe Got now Lebron!!!!
They was playing hard (pause)they were going at each other
Without a doubt MJ is the G.O.A.T
@39:18 😢 big brother to little brother 🐐 + 🐍
The goat 1000 years from now.
35:54 and 36:35 ultimate teacher showing the student moments
Those guys played with pride
That shot!😱🥶 at 43:08
Excellent! and no one injury
The '88 All Star Game is G.O.A.Ted
And they said we were done with the 90s 😂. The comment section shows me, not all is lost. Thanks for the upload man- keep it coming!
Ironically, that trend came about while people were hyped for X-Men '97. And now, even younger generations are enjoying the show.
The NBA Finals isn’t as competitive nowadays as the ASG back then 😂
The GOAT 🐐
Look at the defense being played....... Imagine that an all star game where players wanted to win .
Michael Jordan Is The Goat🐐
Jordan and Thomas was daaaaangerous
Michael Jordan The Greatest The Goat 🐐
The plumbers versus the firemen were epic battles back in the day.
You can’t insert the Tik Tokers in those era. 😊
most idiotiq coment ever
In the third all star game he got a steal on Karl Malone brought it down for the dunk an in the finals got the steal Malone brought it down for the game winner the joe dumars to Jordan off the one bounce @16:27 was sick 😅
Jordan made the All-Star team as a starter in his rookie season, almost averaged 30ppg that year, and won Rookie of the Year.
23:13 i forgot how sweet Isaiah Thomas was!!! Smh its all about him like ah lil Diva!!!!!
Bro the undisputed 🐐
The recently concluded All-star game was a joke compared to these games. These are purely competitive and exciting..
1:11 when Isiah and Jordan could actually play with one another.
He was at his athletic peak in 88, he was at his career peak in 97.
"but they can't catch Jordan.'
Correct.
The 80s & 90s all star is competitive compare today's all star
The West were something else. ❤ gimme
Normally always been...it's a big deal 4 me when the East win.... im from the CHI...
the battle of the best of the best players in the game!
looking back to today's Allstar game........🤔
MJ mentality never lose
Jordan. Kobe. Curry. Lebron. ✊🏾
That rediclous shot over marion all over him in '03 and in o.t. it's my favorte all star game by far...makes todays era look like a joke.
All star every yr of his career
23🐐
This the real all star game!!!
Thanks for this video!
