Michael jordan arguably one of the luckiest players of all time….. played for an all time great team in his prime with one of the greatest coaches of all time…. if thats not insane luck idk what is….. Imagine if BRON had brady’s luck
averaging 41 in the finals on 50% is insane, we always hear how insane MJ was but i personally had never seen a lot of these stats. no wonder everybody who got to watch him play worships him lmao
I caught the tail end of his prime and had to watch his earlier years on VHS as a kid in the 90s. I promise you he's just as great as people say he is. 😂
@@anthonysuches153 Thank you. I didn't have to say it. Defense been outlawed since the late 2000s. During the 2000s where defense was ahead of the offense, then 2004 Pistons winning the title, then the following year 2005s finals Pistons vs Spurs, then the Malace at The Palace they wanted to make the league soft and "Euro Ball/freeflowing/spacing" which basically be matador and props for cheap offensive tactics, circus 3s, flop for fouls and make the "casual fans" happy. Don't let that annoying defense get in the way of putting on great offensive displays. That's if the star players don't have other things to do, they might actually play if we're lucky. While being drilled in out heads that today's players are "bigger, faster, stronger and better" even in street clothes. The game is lost. "Storylines", "narratives" "legacy" and the ever present fictional "best player in the world" and "G.O.A.T." which changes day to day are much more important than the actual games. Oh lets not talk about the trade deadline and free agency. Which really doesn't matter cause in 15 games a player could decide they can't win with the team they selected or they need to "load manage". The NBA it's fantastic.
One reason Jordan will always be the GOAT is because in addition to being unstoppable on offense, he was also a pickpocket on defense, lead the league in steals and even won a Defensive Player of the Year award.
@Tyrese Maxey0 Wilt because he was so unbelievably dominant, set so many records that will never be touched. Kareem because he was elite for a 20-year span. I loved Kobe and Tim, they were both great post-Jordan era players, but Kobe wasn't even close to being as good a defender as Jordan was, Tim wasn't the scorer Jordan was.
@Tyrese Maxey0 If you want to compare Tim's accolades to Jordan's, you'll find Jordan's accolades are much more impressive, no disrespect intended to Duncan. As for Kobe, you don't think Jordan pushed his teammates just as hard? Role players like Ron Harper, Tony Kukoc, Horace Grant, Bryan Williams, Luc Longley, and many more fed off of Jordan's intensity, benefited from his leadership. Kobe was great, but wasn't as good a defender as Jordan was. Timmy was great, but he wasn't the scorer Jordan was. Jordan was both a great defender and a great scorer.
To answer your question, 6. Everyone else combined in the entire 75 year history of the league has 4. He has more 40+ppg series than everyone else does combined, that includes Wilt (who surprisingly has 0).

The 89 season. Doug Collins was the head coach and he put MJ into more of a point guard role That's why his assists went up as a result of that later on at the end of the season But that didn't sustain itself and Doug Collins soon lost his job as a result of that 89 Eastern conference finals And Phil Jackson came in for the 1990 season where he introduced the triangle offense to the Chicago bulls and used MJ in more of an off-ball type role which was by far the best way to use MJ as a player in a system

By Mj massive standards, Washington years were indeed sub par, however..... I enjoy seeing him beat young stars like Vince or Tmac or Pierce and frustrate them. They thought the league is theirs, and now is the time to torch Mj and end his era, make him play 1 on 1 and blow by the legend, dunk on him, drop 40, thus increasing their overall league status. But Mj relished those matchups and eagerly awaited them. He knew those players were soft. He took them defensively in second halfs of games and clamped up. Playing mind games, trash talking. Vince started chucking jump shots, Pierce got angry how Mj was hand checking and refs dared not blow the whistle...... and he shut them down. Then scored big jumpers on the other end. Hit some gamewinners. Mj was competitive as hell. And had his way with those young guns. Except Kobe. Kobe was a psycho and dropped 55 on mj lol
Vince outplayed MJ every time they played. MJ averaged 14 ppg against Vince and Vince averaged 23.5 ppg on better efficiency. T-mac actually played against MJ when he was on the bulls too but MJ outplayed him every game. On the Wizards though T-mac outplayed him every time they played. Including MJ's stats on the bulls MJ averaged 20.9 ppg against T-mac while T-Mac averaged 24.1 ppg.

Tbh Hakeem should've won dpoy over MJ but then again Sydney Moncrief defiantly doesn't deserve 2 DPOY's and Jordans raw and advanced defensive stats outshines Sid who was nowhere close to the all round MJ was.
the fact MJ was so good that during his Wizards years averaging 21.4 points 5.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game on 43 percent shooting was considered bad shows how damn good he was. Him and Lebron are so far ahead of everyone its mind blowing.
@@banananarwhals2016 Jordan was 38 years old and 3 years out of retirement. It was bad by his standards but still above average for the rest of the league. Don't forget that zone defense was revived the same year Jordan came back which made it harder to score inside the paint.
AYOOOO I was listening to this with no fuckjng context and I actually thought Utah state community college went to a championship Barry you’ve officially done your job
To show how great MJ was, the league literally became a billion dollar league in the span of eight years. Even only having three rings, he was considered to be many to be the greatest ever in 93'. Also, if you cut his career in half, and use all of his worst numbers, he'd still be a HOF with one or two rings.
MJs 89-91 r his 3 best years. He was in his peak as an offball defender, all time playmaker, insane playoff riser, most likely the 3 best scoring seasons in NBA history. I don’t get how just bcuz he had worse teammates in those years and he had like 1 or 2 under performances in the Playoffs means those yrs aren’t the best

Imo if you get "goat" status, you gotta be able to win no matter the team you have and make your teammates play better around you. That said Bill, Wilt, and Lebron are the best 3 to me. But Dr. J and Vince Carter are my favorites.
Utah State Community College almost made me spit out my oatmeal 😂😂
1988 for me. That is absolutely omnipotent basketball to grab 32PPG on 8AST 8REB 2.9STL for 81 games straight. That left no aspect of basketball un-sodomized.
This dude really gonna act like the Jazz aren’t the Spurs of the 90’s??? Like they were some the best teams of all time
You really didn't watch the Spurs. The Pop/Duncan Spurs Dynasty are even better than Larry Bird's Celtics, to put their dominance and longevity into perspective. About as good as Kareem/Magic's showtime Lakers. They were THAT level
“Utah State Community College “ 😂😂😂truth
Why? That Utah team beat Robinson and Duncan. They also swept 🧹 Shaq, Kobe and 2 other all stars on the Lakers that season.
@@massdagod broken back Robinson … young timmy . Young kobe , and unmotivated shaq.. Your saying these legends name like they were all in their prime like Utah . Next . They also proved kobe and tim 5 chips laters while Utah st community college is still at 0…
Could you do a grade ranking video of NBA defensive player of the year each year? I'm curious based on your comment about MJ not deserving DPOY; who would you have had instead? Great stuff as always 👍🏻👍🏻
1993 and 1994 Hakeem Olajuwon A+.
Tbh Hakeem should've won dpoy over MJ but then again Sydney Moncrief defiantly doesn't deserve 2 DPOY's and Jordans raw and advanced defensive stats outshines Sid who was nowhere close to the all round MJ was.
9:12 Famous Condom Hater.. Magic Johnson 💀💀
I don’t agree with your opinion on Tom Brady but I appreciate it and I also enjoy your content. Keep up the good work sir.
Nah his opinion on Tom Brady is right
@@malone4735 you literally just said a contradiction. Opinion=right/wrong. Wanna revise your statement or look like an idiot?
87-88 should be higher. Winning the scoring title with over 35 ppg while also getting DPOY honors is a season that I don't think will ever be beaten
Honestly, I really wonder what his stats will look like if he didn't retire Twice.
‘89 MJ insanely underrated on this list, top 3 season by him no doubt
You do know in that piston series they were using the Jordan rules when they intended to hurt him. Not surprising he started playing worse
“Famous condom hater, Magic Johnson.” -Barry 2022.
Do the same thing for Lebron
Facts & his 2018 season was crazy.
Tough call, but I think 2013 was Lebron's best season.
@@vulcanraven9701 his own team was garbage. LeBron carried them to the Finals.
the fact MJ was so good that during his Wizards years averaging 21.4 points 5.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game on 43 percent shooting was considered bad shows how damn good he was. Him and Lebron are so far ahead of everyone its mind blowing.
43% shooting is really bad for a 2 pt specialist tho. Worse than Russell Westbrook bad.
@@banananarwhals2016 no it's not the league average is like 44-45% or something like that. As long as you're above 40% that's pretty normal
@@retrosoul8770 he had the 2nd worst efg in the league his first year back and was 15th to last his second year with the wizards.
@@retrosoul8770 he just wanted an excuse to shit on Westbrook. Typical nba analytics nerd
@@banananarwhals2016 Jordan was 38 years old and 3 years out of retirement. It was bad by his standards but still above average for the rest of the league. Don't forget that zone defense was revived the same year Jordan came back which made it harder to score inside the paint.
Barry should trigger every nba team
Can you do top ten nfl corners of all time
Good idea
Jalen Ramsey easily the best corner ever, no other corner wears a ski mask better !!
The goat
Would like to see you rank all of Aaron Rodgers' seasons
Can you list your top 15 greatest nfl players of all time we still haven’t gotten that yet
I’d enjoy seeing monthly nba reviews
love NBA videos. Keep it up
This guy is pretty talented, he should try his luck at baseball.
“Utah State Community College”
GOLD!!!!!!!
AYOOOO I was listening to this with no fuckjng context and I actually thought Utah state community college went to a championship Barry you’ve officially done your job
To show how great MJ was, the league literally became a billion dollar league in the span of eight years. Even only having three rings, he was considered to be many to be the greatest ever in 93'. Also, if you cut his career in half, and use all of his worst numbers, he'd still be a HOF with one or two rings.
How do I find this guys twitter because Im certain its gonna be legendary
Bro who averages 45 points in a playoff series bro??? Like how bro 🤦🏿♂️
“Utah State Community College” 😭🤣
yay I love this guys nba stuff
MJ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You should do a video comparing Julio Jones and Antonio Brown
you should make this a series
now do LeBron's version of this
Love ur vids Barry
"Famous Condom Hater, Magic Johnson" HAHAHAHHAA
young jordan was absolutely insane
LeBron next?
Do Every year for Lebron too
I like these Barry. Do Bron and and Kobe
"No offense to blimps"
You should do the top ten running backs of all time
Do a version of LeGoat 🐐
Wait. Did he just say “SQUIRTERS”???! 😱🤣🤣
Pls make this a series do Kareem next
You know what I really miss? MICHAEL JORDAN!
Barry I miss your in depth Tom Brady breakdown games
His MJ in depth breakdowns were much funnier
I have no idea what any of this means but this is cool
when the nba season ends, can you please roast every team
9:18 that’s messed up bruh 😂
The only way to make Jordan's numbers look bad is when they are compared to each other.
I like this video good topic
You should make a video on Megatron and what could have been
Let’s go barryyyy
If you turn closed captioning off, it actually says “squirters”
A Lebron video would be fun his 2nd run in Cleveland is unmatched, plus his last 3 years with the heat being on par with MJs best years.
No they’re not.
MJs best years aren't comparable to Lebron's.
MJ was super human, Lebron is great but he's not the same tier.
or a video on cam newton. fans of those two
Good idea
No puppies :(
Alright now rank every Ballon D’or
MJs 89-91 r his 3 best years. He was in his peak as an offball defender, all time playmaker, insane playoff riser, most likely the 3 best scoring seasons in NBA history. I don’t get how just bcuz he had worse teammates in those years and he had like 1 or 2 under performances in the Playoffs means those yrs aren’t the best
"Utah State Community College" lol
Do one with Lebron
You should do one of all kobe seasons
Do this same vid for lebron
Barry rank lebrons seasons
Utah state community college got a good laugh
