    MJ had two careers, and many younger folks don't remember the first career. He was two different players.
    In his early years, before his first retirement, he was the greatest force basketball has ever seen.
    Post-retirement, he was still probably the best player in the world, but he lacked the athleticism he had years earlier.
    It's a marvel that he was able to change his game and still be great, but the younger Jordan is the one who was jaw-dropping.

    Jordan is for sure amazing, but its not just him. The whole team, or at least a few of the players, worked really well together. They set him up for those great plays by knowing each other so well. Watch how perfect some of those passes were, straight through the arms of other players and with such precision that he could already be flying through the air and the ball be exactly where it needed to be without any of them even looking. great stuff! :)

    2:18. 'Michael Jordan's head almost hit the backboard'.
    More like, Jordan had to duck his head to stop his face smashing into the ring; and look where he took off from.
    Unmatched and downright frightening athletiscism.
    And that was only a small part of it.
    Unmatched skill, competitiveness, work ethic.
    No other athlete ever is even close to this guy.
    A one off genius.

    No one's going to be the GOAT after Jordan.
    It's not even just what he did on the court. He brought basketball to the main stage. He made Nike. In fact, he MADE the modern basketball shoe. Before that, everyone wore chucks. The Jordan logo is possibly the most recognized clothing logo in the world.
    And on top of all that, he was a winner. His basketball career is the stuff of legends.
    As far as Kobe, LeBron, Wade, etc, they got their own legacies to make, but Jordan is undeniably the GOAT.
