Michael's way was the best for his team at that time. Robert Parish was quoted as saying that MJ could never have gotten away with the way he acted in practice if he was w/Celtics, but he wouldn't have needed to. MJ had a support staff that didn't have the same winning drive that the Celtics or the Lakers had, so he had to brand it in them with a hot iron in order to bring them to a championship level. And that he did... 6 flipping times
Great perspective
Mike would have been the same. Parish would be traded if he had a problem with Mike. Same way the Lakers traded Shaq when he was beefing with Kobe.
@@Richard-hx6mi umm no. As good as MJ is, and I think he's the GOAT, he couldn't have waltzed into Boston in 1984 or even 1988 and started barking commands at Parish, Bird, McHale...etc. You don't get a better example of seniority than the Celtics in the 80s, who have already won championships, who are already legendary. Maybe in 1992 when the Bird and McHale were all old. Or, maybe, in this hypothetical, if MJ came into the league the same year and was added to the roster at the same time as Bird. But, now this comparison is getting silly. At North Carolina MJ was not a tyrant, rather, described as very well mannered by Dean Smith and James Worthy. Even with the Bulls, he was less abrasive with Scottie because he was great and already possessed the necessary discipline and drive to be a champion. The same would have held true for all the hall of famers for the Celtics. Jordan respects champions and destroys those who are not.
Just Great !
@@Richard-hx6mi its not really the beef with Kobe.
Shaq wanted the Lion's share but he went full Pippen and didn't want to get surgery during the break.
i just realized that steve played with 2 of the greatest player (MJ, Timmy), played for 2 of the greatest coaches (coach Phil and Pop) and played in 2 of the greatest dynasty team(bulls and spurs) in the nba. no wonder he get to build warriors this way. that's the hell of experience you can get to make your own dynasty, and to coach one of the greatest player.
Mark jackson drafted Stephen curry clay Thompson and draymond green that being said Kerr took them there
@@carloscoronado3368 yup, I'm talking about how he make the dynasty tho, not recruiting those three. the dynasty didn't begun the moment those three get into the warriors.
Kerr is part of 3 of the greatest dynasties if you count gsw
@@benndarayta9156 ofc i count it. my post was about how that it's kinda make sense that he can build gsw dynasty looking at his career as a player.
@@carloscoronado3368 he didn’t draft steph, I’m not sure about klay but he did draft draymond..
MJ probably got so fed up being beaten by the Pistons that it drove him to do everything he could to toughen his teammates to be as mentally tough as he. Isiah once said that the Bad Boys did not worry AT ALL about MJ's teammates. They had zero respect for his supporting cast because they were mentally weak. That is is just so telling. So MJ had to be a hard ass, and that carried over to the 2nd 3peat team. But he was actually probably a nicer, more understanding leader in that 2nd 3peat team, even if that's hard to believe. While MJ was tough on his teammates, he didn't leave them and he made the most of what he had. He brought them with him to the promised land 6 times.
6 - 0 👍
Exactly,good point.
He took whatever the organization gave him and got every single drop out of it.Which wasn’t that much.Those teams were not full of all-star talent.Scottie was his only all-star teammate his entire career.And even scottie didn’t make the all-star team every year.
MJ was the only all-star in ‘91 & ‘98.
He carried that entire franchise to the highest level possible.
@@dc4690 MJ had a lot to do with molding Scottie into the superstar he became. Scottie had the talent and work ethic but he was still pretty raw coming into the NBA. MJ requested Scottie guard him in scrimmages, play 1 on 1 after practice, and train at MJs house in the off season. You think its a coincidence Scottie became one of the greatest defenders after guarding MJ in practice?
Of course not
It goes deeper than that. In MJ's early years, he had teammates that were more interested in cocaine than playing basketball.
Tim and Steph's leadership was more like corporate style. MJ's was more Military like. Both effective in their own way.
@@AmericanMuscle69 yeah, but expect analysts slander on curry's name because he'll absolutely be selfless and give everyone the ball.
The Spurs was run like Military due to Pop and David bro.
@@iii898iii what's your point? Im talking about Tim and Steph. Not David and Pop.
Gross. Corporate "leadership" is repulsive and phony. Dont slander Duncan and Curry like that. LeBron does the "corporate" "leadership." Phony backstabber who throws his teammates under the bus
@@stevencoardvenice repulsive and phony my ass
Jordans hands were so big..He was just toying with people. The combo of that 1st step, hand size, elevation off either 1 or 2 legs, quickness of his gather. He makes EVERYONE look like a little boy. Lebron included!
Yup both are more gifted athletically and physically than their peers but Jordan was more skilled than Bron. Bron has better vision though
Don’t forget strength.
Don't exaggerate. Utah still won multiple games during the final against Jordan.
@@feifeishuishui Seriously, WTF does my thread have to do with UTAH? We're talking about the elite level physical gifts MJ had that nobody else does. That has no bearing on someone winning a few games.
Throw in an unrivaled post game, mid range game, smarts, defense and competitiveness and that's why there's really no one close.
Steve Kerr is way too humble himself. He is just as deserving for his successes as all the rest of these superstars.
MJ was a product of his own environment. Nothing was given to him when he entered the league. He had to earn his success and reputation. He started right from the bottom by being drafted into a poor performing Bulls franchise but worked his way to the top through hard work and perseverance. He is old school, which made him physically and mentally tough. You're not going to get anything from MJ because no one gave him anything. You have to earn it, like he did himself.
It actually started with his dad... Mr. Jordan used to dismiss him and prefers his other brothers because he thought MJ was clumsy and less skilled and that made MJ pushed himself to be the best among them so he can get his dad's trust and acknowledgement...
What sets Jordan apart from all the great players is his toughness and determination. MJ always had a chip on his shoulder to prove he was better even though he was the most talented offensive & defensive player in the league. MJ dominated and took over games. His will to win was superhuman. There have been incredible players but only one Michael Jordan!
I feel like part of Jordan's savagery in practise was a way for him to release the tension & pressure of being who he was (extremely famous). Jordan was probably venting out a lot of those frustrations but in typical MJ fashion he used those outbursts to contribute towards winning
Not to mention being fouled hard. Though he could give it too. Sometimes dangerously so and not get kicked out the game
@@gold6813 Jordan was a sneakily dirty player. He was a bully by nature and only picked on who he thought was beneath him or weaker than him. He tried that shit with Glen Rice and Glen was in his face. He foul Kerr hard to send Phil Jackson a message but Kerr stood up for himself and MJ could not handle it and sucker punched Kerr. He tried to bully Parish and Cartwright but those two would have kicked his asd so he backed off.
@@Apo_Ni_Baby_Kupal Well, not even remotely so. He was making fun of Medical Bill all the time...
@@Apo_Ni_Baby_Kupal I agree. When Will Purdue set a hard screen on him in practice and Jordan went to the floor (which you'd want him to do in games), Jordan screamed at him. When they ran the drill again, Purdue hard screened him again., and Jordan again was knocked to the floor. Then Jordan punched him in the face. How was that 'toughening up' Purdue? Purdue was practicing doing a physical play (again, what you want him to do, and Jordan sucker punched him.
Practice was for everyone to get reps and improve, not for Jordan to show he could score better than the rest (which he obviously could-- duh!). But that was important to Jordan, for reasons best addressed by a psychologist. 'Winning' in scrimmages isn't the purpose of that training.
That wasn't it. He explained it on the Last Dance
The Bulls were a mess when MJ arrived. My friends and I could get tickets at the box office an hour before tipoff and get great seats. MJ literally had to force the Bulls to play him after he injured his foot. He openly questioned their desire to make the playoffs.Jerry Reinsdorf was fine with mediocrity for Bulls and Sox as long as people came and WGN televised the games.MJ changed all of that! And to think he wasn’t the highest paid player on the roster until about his 10th season is unfathomable. These are the things that make MJ The Goat!
YESSSS!
Greatest power forward, greatest shooter & greatest of all time. One thing they all have in common was the ability to maximize the talent around them.
Steve kerr's championship roster
PG Stephen Curry (Tony Parker)
SG Michael Jordan (Klay Thompson)
SF Kevin Durant (Scottie Pippen)
PF Tim Duncan (Dennis Rodman)
C David Robinson (Andrew Bogut)
Bench mob: Draymond Green, Toni Kukoc, Manu Ginobili, Andre Iguodala, Andrew Wiggins
That is a hell of a 15 man roster
Timmy is WAY BETTER but i would Rodman instead just because ot the different things he brings to the table he is arguably the greatest defender of all time definitely top 2 and the greatest rebounder of all time
@@carnageassassin2617, yup. When Rodman (while with The Bad Boys) body slams Jordan to the floor. And when the Chicago Bulls needed a MAN in the paint, they signed Dennis Rodman. That's when he (Jordan) goes to management and has Jerry Krause and Phil Jackson tell Dennis Rodman to be nice and apologize to Michael Jordan and Scotty Pippen.
Seriously!?!
Who does that? I'll tell you, it's Michael Jordan.
@Truth is Truth! 2022 true
Don’t you dare disrespect Scottie like that. He deserves to be in front of Durant. He got six rings! And was way better defensively in his prime !
And kd is a top 5 scorer to ever walk planet earth and a 2x final mvp. Your point being?
The only thing Kerr does is win win win. He plays with winners and greatness and then he coaches for winners and greatness.
Kerr's overall contribution to NBA basketball is going to be Top5 of all time. He's seen it all from all sorts of perspectives.Won it, Several times, as player, as coach.
I really love the way Kerr is thinking, his perspective on the things around him and the way he is talking about. He is such a "normal" and outstanding guy in one person. Thats awesome. I am sure he is a great coach and player to work and play with. I am not into the arrogance of Steph on the floor and i rate him of course way behind Jordan, but i like when Steve wins even some more rings. He is deserving in the most humble way imaginable.
While I can get what you mean, but saying you don't like Steph's "arrogance on the floor" is a disservice to him and the game of basketball. I mean, these guys are professionals - they literally get paid to do this. For a league of that caliber, you have to use every advantage you can get - any one of the ~350 or whatever players can get 60+ points in a game vs regular people. Why does experience counts so much in playoffs for analysts and matchups for example. The mental aspect, including the arrogance and intimidation and showboating and "beating your opponent when they're down" IN A GAME absolutely matters. I'm sure you carry yourself differently in your normal life and at work, as much as most people. If you like basketball, as I'm sure you do, you should learn to appreciate all of it man.
@@blehe0h I get your point too and i totally agree about the importance of the mental aspect in sports. So i should be more precise and say, i personally just like other ways of intimidation more. lol
I don´t wanna take away anything from Steph. He is such a great player. And Shaq and others did that same way of showboating soooo much - i still liked them as a player. Maybe its more the way it looks so acted. And again, thats just how i get to thing about it.
I love the mental game, no matter what kind of sport it is. :-)
Idk if it’s necessarily better. Maybe when you look at a longevity standpoint but Mike played 82 games countless times, all star games, events, playoffs etc and never took his foot off the gas. I rather that than people playing 20 years or how they do things now. Also feels like there are more injuries now even with all this advanced training stuff
I agree with you on that my dad worked 35 years at his job and never called off one time and he had 2 to 3 jobs at a time
More injuries are probably also a result of modern increased weight training - which in future we'll probably "learn" is actually bad for a lot of guys. Also the guys that are playing longer are naturally more injury prone.
MJ did what was needed to be done, and that was to be a tyrant during practice to toughen up his teammates.
They badly needed some tough love.
No different from USMC boot camp, if you ask me.
Jordan would dominate this current NBA and his three point, percentage would be just fine today. With this soft defense he'd average 40 a game
Fifty!
50 easy as AI would say. He could average what ever he want to average as Jackson would say... In today girlysoft-floplikeLBJ 6:36 -don'ttouchme kind of game, i would go with Jackson, that MJ could average whatever number he wanted to. Literally, no one could stop... We will just crash everybody, that is including Leflop James...
As it currently stands, Duncan has been the best player since MJ retired, no one else comes close--plenty of pretenders though. Hopefully Steph will be able to surpass Timmy someday.
Calm down Zeke lol always hating on Kobe
Kobe didnt make the playoffs every year. I prefer TD to start a franchise over kobe, but both are equal as top 10 all time
@@rohitrajoria8952 Kobe didn't have the supporting cast that Duncan had every year and was taking bums to the playoffs, like Kwame Brown and believe he only missed one playoff before his injuries pretty much ended his career and that year I believe he was also injured
Steph is the closest to Tim Duncan hopefully he finishes with 5 or 6 rings
thats why MJ never lost in a finals. and thats why prime MJ trumps all challengers, past, present, and future. what are the odds that somebody else will show up with 1. his natural ability and physical gifts and 2. be even more obsessed with winning? good luck.
Yup. I always say someone like lebron would give up mentally after a couple games. Lebron is an all time great player, but Jordan would break him down in a series. Jordan had more ways of scoring the ball, more tools in his arsenal, and was far more competitive. Only thing lebron has on jordan is size
Lol.2014 spurs,2017warriors.theres alot of team that can compete against mj's bulls.Remember he got his ass kicked 3x by pistons bad boi and those guys barely have offensive prowess.and back in da day teams are not allowed to clogged the lane.
@@narutoclyde8586
No one over said that no team could compete against the Chicago bulls. 20 years ago, people were talking about theoretical matchups between the 2001 lakers and the 96 bulls. The 2001 lakers went 15-1 in the playoffs, and blew out the spurs in every game
This thread is about a matchup between Michael Jordan and lebron James
Because during most years of his career he was not even making to the finals. He was beaten before that. So don't cherrypick
@@stevencoardvenice JORDAN, IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME, NO DOUBT. YET, LeBRON HAS FAR MORE ON JORDAN, THAN YOU'VE MENTIONED. WHAT THE HELL DID SHAQ, HAVE OVER EVERYONE ELSE?? SIZE💡 JORDAN, IS THE GREATEST. LeBRON, IS STILL EATING AT THE TABLE WITH HIM. #DocumentedFacts
steve kerr has bragging rights to being the most qualified person to answer this question
While MJ made everyone around him better, James had to recruit established stars to win championships. James has skills, but does not comprehend the mental aspect of the game, and he does not know how to lead and fails too often during prime time. This is more apparent as he ages.
Yes that's why MJ will always stay ahead James. Mental edge on another level.
Absolutely. That mental side of MJ is unmatched by anyone. Wait…..
So is his physical side.🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
Oh well…..
Completely agree. Leflop just salivating to join Steph now to win more ships, whereas MJ was only interested in destroying Magic and Bird.
Bullseye
Steve Kerr is my hero. He is vocal
I’ve never heard anyone say a bad word about Tim Duncan.
That was great to watch
And that is why MJ has 6 rings. 👊😁
6/6 and the Beast Man in every one of it. There's nothing like @Jumpman23 at the moment.. and maybe years from now.. Absolutely brilliant and yeah that sheer fcking will. 🏀🔥♥️
In dominant fashion. And we will never know how many he could have won
Lmao ignorance. He had Scottie and Rodman. With that team, it’s more how did he ONLY get 6.
@@HaHaha-vn4qk NBA lockout, Jerry Krause/Phil Jackson feud....that's how.
@@HaHaha-vn4qk Furthermore, Rodman is a limited offensive talent that made the HOF based on his rebounding and defensive prowess...Pippen was mentally weak as he was exposed in the Last Dance...Jordan both won because of them, but also in spite of Pippen and Rodman's limitations
It would have been interesting if Kerr also got to play with Kobe. He would probably feel like he is playing with MJ's little brother.
Tim Duncan didn't need to be the hard ass of the team. Greg Popavich filled that roll.
100% facts bro
Michael was the Dragon. Period.
Imagine a regular guy with that kind of attitude... What would you call him, say about him?
The reason why they play 18 years is cause the whole game changed. When Joedan played it was a man's game
Mj push them to their limits and made every individual better from nobody.
Hard on teammates, harder on himself.
That was passed on and later known as the mamba mentality... Which actually drove kobe and shaq apart lmao.
Steph and timmy work with everyone and shares the ball to make everyone involved as a threat.
Both effective to their extremes.
MJ punked the entire NBA.
Jordan is the GOAT!!! The King of Kings!!! Black Jesus!!!!!
"Well, he wasn't humble!"
He blurted out the truth, then he remembered he had to backtrack or his public image was GONE from all the personal attacks.
There’s not just one way but there’s a best way and MJs way is the best way in pro sports
It was the hardest thing to do so only that way was possible!
I disagree boss. I think there could of been a different way
May be that era, it was the best way. Mentality has changed since then
@@DanielF892 no chance they win like they do a different way..sorry Bud
@@AaAa-ru4bu mentality has changed…to soft as fk
5:32 we practiced harder...
Credence to the fight these guys had back then. They weren't taking nights off for rest, and running it hard for 82 games was a badge of honor. Yeah, a lot of folks didn't last as long but with the way they played, a lot of them shouldn't have lasted as long as they did.
Even pick up ball at local rec center was played harder. I remember I used to get runs in Orange County with the likes of Sean Rooks, Cedric Ceballos, Miles Simon, Reggie Geary, Cherokee Parks, Alonzo Jamison, Tony Gonzalez, etc. and the games were a lot more intense than what you see in the NBA today. Now when I go to rec center guys play with no tenacity. It's like playing in an All-Star game. I'm 53 so I benefit since it's not physical. But what a huge difference between back then and now.
I can honestly say I’ve never seen Tim Duncan dominate a game
Then you never watched him play 😂
Steve Kerr your the man
Who in the league at that time could guard Tim 1vs 1, same as Jordan it would of been fun to see them in the finals....Tim needs to be in the discussion as the G.O.A.T.!!
The END Justify The Means!... 2 THREE PEATS! That's Does It For Me! Thats why Over 30 years later, he's Still Relevant! Michael Jeffrey Jordan! ❤❤❤
NBA then, a hunger to win a championship, a win for the team. NBA now, a hunger for a big paycheck and to join a winning team.
6 and 0 is the GOAT!
Best stories...Yes! S.Kurr cool AF. Jordan punched this dude in the face, in practice and he has never...said a bad word against the man. Respect and vibe 😎
He punched him for real
People forget how Michael raised the bar for everything. That need to succeed came from a certain personality type. Bird, Kobe, Isiah, Irving.... They can all be hard to be around when your vocation is your entire life.
Irving? Or Erving?
MJ transformed the Bulls. He made them great.
It’s crazy bc they say longevity is better now but it’s sports! You get paid so much because it’s a short term career for the majority. I do believe all these injuries now are because players load management so much! With anything consistency is a given. If I miss time from the gym then start back it take a minute to get back adjusted. If you sitting out for weeks then you back playing with no practice, scrimmage, your body needs time to adjust to that game time playing. I think that’s why a lot of guys are often hurt!! MJ was way demanding, aggressive and competitive and that’s why we loved him. .. Love Curry and Duncan but many ppl didnt give Tim his due during his playing days because they said he was nice and quiet. I miss the Jordan data, just an exciting time of bbal! I love GST they keep me entertained during this era of bbal
If memory serves, MJ missed like 5 games his entire career? Well, not counting his 2nd year when he injured his foot. Dude was crazy durable for the amount of games he played.
@@leechrec yep yep!
@@leechrec And what about Stockton and Mailman.
Stockton missed like 4 games until 35 years of age and he played 19 seasons in NBA.
And Mailman missed 5 games until 35 years of age and he played 19 seaons too.
@@ElComendante1928 Word. The old dudes were iron men. If a player load managed back in the day, they'd probably get laughed at.
They never actually said it but the reason MJ was “feared” is because no matter how well he played,…..no matter how hard he played, no matter what his intensity level was, those guys knew he had another gear. They weren’t afraid he was going to murder them or beat them up. They were trying to hold their own and not give him a reason to get ratchet it up another notch. They were like, “play him hard but don’t upset him”.
Taking joy in other advancement is what makes a GREAT TEAM MEMBER!!!!.... PERIOD!!!!! And that's what team sports do 4 peopke....also that player that wants 2 WIN and is a LEADER PULLS the players around him 2 be better...by going out there and putting his all into EVERY GAME AND PRACTICE...CAUSE THE WAS U PRACTICE IS THEWAY U PLAY ON THE COURT OR FIELD!!!!
1:38 - 1:43 isn’t that everyone 💯REAL LIFE💯
Different eras jordans era was all about toughness and defense, physicality. He knew that in order to make the team into a championship team was to toughen em up whatever it took scream, yell, fight. That’s why kerr meant jordan was not humble in good way. Sometimes being arrogant and mean to ur teammates as a leader helps get the better out of them. Kobe was the same way that’s why he’s a 5 time champion. Having the ability to make your teammates better as a player is not easy its more of a gifted talent one is born with. Lebron, Kobe, MJ have this ability as a players
Even today's game is easier and softer during practice ....😂
Kobe Bryant gives the best description of what type of play steph curry is
curry doesn’t come close to Kobe’s all around greatness - all he really does great is shoot. If I’m WAY OFF tell me why…
5:49 that's also the same reason why he loses so much and will never truly be in the top echelon of players. Steve basically confirms how soft the league has become and that the competitive spirit isn't as high as back in the day.
Jordan is the GOAT!!!!
Steph wouldn't have won without Steve.
MJ wouldn't have won without Phill.
Rex Chapman: the guys who posts other people’s content on Twitter
These 2 players cannot be compared it's a different era with different rules in a different society and different ownerships and different expectations of players this some players this is only done to make videos sell books have controversy which means nothing different eras cannot be compared And this video is proof of that
I’ve seen both of them play and under no circumstances I will take Lebron over MJ. Jordan was so skilled in so many areas. Besides what is mentioned here, he had much much better handles,, and he just sore in the air so high with so much control and grace. His hang time was insane.
I really don’t even know why this even came up. I have a theory; when MJ left the NBA TV ratings plummeted. They needed to market players to be just as good as Jordan to attract viewers. But the fact is, it’s just a marketing ploy that has gone ever since Jordan retired and it hasn’t panned out.
People are not stupid. I know what I see and what I saw. Hell, I say today’s game is more favorable to Jordan.
glen rice also said the same thing. they beat the bulls in 1 game but they will never beat the bulls in a series. and thats sometimes how leader works. he will coerce his will to his team mates to win, whether u liked it or not, u will perform as hard as your leader. back in the day, timmy, manu and tony are leaders, steph has klay and draymond. jordan has none coz scottie was injured and dennis was doing extra off the court. he has to be tough and strict.
Don't discredit yourself i will never forget those 4 straight threes against the mavericks
Guys are lasting longer today because the league is soft. Watch games from the 80's and 90's and you see a battle. Now they're all lovey dovey and just launch 3's.
The dogs bark sounds exactly like my golden retriever! I bet he owns one
If it wasn't for MJ Kerr doesn't win his rings as a coach
Jesus Loves you and wants you to accept him as your Lord and saviour
Jordan vs Kerr - Kerr ends up with more Rings over all
What an amazing time to watch basketball
With out longley chicago bull is nothing.they were lucky enough with longley at thier team!
Dont do that, leave Curry out that mj thing. Curry next level, another team player. Keep it kobe and mj. They wanted to do all the shooting. Lets keep it selfish.
Curry dunked on Ewing & Mutumbo😆
Not really Steve if you look at Jordan if he doesn't retire the 1st time and plays thu until the Washington yrs none Stop he doesn't drop of as much and he would've played 20yrs!!
Pretty sad when steve said that they’re doing things smarter today. Yeah they are…. For the sake of the millionaires that rely on fans to spend hard earned money to see who they envy play a childs game professionally. Michael and the league back then played hard all the time because it was expected from themselves and the fans. People wanna see EFFORT. They wanna see intense and at the edge of your seat play. Not players being careful and taking breaks so they can play for 30 yrs(exaggeration). Yeah it benefits the players who get paid RIDICULOUSLY to play a dam game, but the mentality of feeling like you’re obligated to entertain and put full effort into every single game is nonexistent today. But to try and make this decision to try their hardest to keep their players from getting injured is just pussyball. Go stay home and play video games then. Oh wait, they might still do load management due to finger injuries.🤦🏽♂️ F@cks sake
so they don’t play with effort because they avoid injuries that may end their career in a game that they love? doesn’t even make too much sense imo
playing hard is still here, but technology for body conservation is more important than trying to destroy your enemy, in which you still can do, curry and giannis are testaments to that
edit: you need your body to entertain in a physical game lmao
@@keymncole your thinking is exactly my point and what’s wrong. The mentality is what makes the game shitty and soft. Sensitive.
Don't put Stephen in better pay
Oh 😣 old 🗝️
Kerr 4 peated Jordan did not
i find it so funny that steve kerr says michael wasnt humble and all these jordan stans say otherwise. and they shit on other player who they say arent humble
If your main take from the interview was that you are really delusional about what is important in basketball...
@@jamaral3233 wasn’t my main take away. I just found that funny. That a dude that played with him said he wasn’t humble yet all you’ll hear from his fans was how humble he was
@@chriskessoon3622 all you’ll hear from his fans and from 90% of the world is that he is the GOAT! And that is a fact, humbleness it is not a factor in that. Irrelevant!
@@jamaral3233 we moving past the jordan goat era. People are opening their eyes and aren’t being swayed by the propaganda.
Not on the court but off the court yes
Where was Steph Curry leadership during infamous choke job in 2016
every superstar chokes, except for MJ and that’s why he’s so above everyone else. not fair to put steph on that same note, homie put the entire team on his back so many times
Why were some players afraid of MJ back in the day ? That's just basketball 🏀🤦🏾♂️ smh
Even Shaq were afraid of him 🤣🤣🤣 MJ has that kind of aura, we will never understand unless we were his opponent back then.
Watch some michael jordan stories from players on youtube and you'll get the idea on why some players were afraid of him. Many were not afraid of him at first and tried to talk trash at him. Then ended up getting humbled after the game. Reggie miller and KG/isiah rider stories are good examples.
It wasn't like they were afraid he was going to beat them up or something. Guys weren't running away from lining up across from him. But they just knew that competitively this guy was a different animal. On top of that you add supremely gifted athlete and basketball player. It was intimidating to say the least. That's what's meant by being afraid. They knew there was no room for slippage and that they had to take every possession seriously. Every opponent doesn't require such focus. This one (MJ) did though.
Well, you never got posterized by MJ. Basketball players had something called pride back then, as it was a tough, physical sport. Most of the players were in it for the win, not for the fun or for the money, like nowadays. Players back then loved this sport. They feared MJ because they knew how easy it was for him to drop 40-50-60 points on your team, posterizing you and your teammates in the process. Nobody likes being humiliated like that, but nowadays players just don't give a fuck, they in it for the money, not for the love of the sport, for the love of the fans, or for the love of the city they play for. Club fidelity is basically non existent nowadays with superteams and ridiculous salaries, back then it meant everything. If your team got humiliated, your city got humiliated, your people got humiliated. MJ could do that on any given night to anybody, and he would do it out of spite especially if you talked trash to him. You had to bring your A game and even then pray for the gods, and god forbid trash talking him, and if you got lucky, he walked away with under 40 points.
This two Dunvan and Curry are more better to be compared to have the GOAT status against MJ alongside Kobe.
If LeBron James had played during Michael Jordan's era, he would have been exposed to the style of play prevalent in the NBA at that time. This would have influenced his development in terms of skills, physicality, approach, and mentality, enabling him to compete against the best opponents. Moreover, he would have excelled in that era as well. This holds true not just for LeBron, but for any player in today's NBA. Furthermore, it is important to consider that players from the past decade or so would have also adapted their game if they had grown up playing in today's basketball. If one accepts the notion that today's NBA is weaker, then it follows that it is also smarter, as Steve Kerr pointed out regarding the improved player health preservation strategies. For instance, envision the benefits of resting players like Pat Ewing or Karl Malone for 25 percent of the regular season, resulting in them being stronger beasts in the playoffs. Imagine Kevin Durant bulking up like Kevin Garnett, or envision defensive stalwarts like Dikembe Mutombo, Hakeem Olajuwon, or even Luc Longley with higher three-point shooting percentages, necessitating defenders to guard them even when they ventured beyond the three-point line. The crux of the matter is that different eras produce different types of players, and this debate will continue endlessly. Until next time, when the debate might shift to comparing Wemby to LeBron.
Draymond is the leader on the warriors
If you want to become better individually you join jordan's team. If you want to have a fun time join steph's team.
Every player that joins Steph becomes better, tf you mean? Last year Poole was G league player, Wiggins a bust, GP2 g league but now we got people calling them all stars and saying the warriors have a stacked team 😂
@@eddyirategekanya336 is he what they call a casual?
@@eddyirategekanya336 Wiggins not a bust just not a superstar, nobody smart calling poole or gp all stars. What i was saying is practicing against mj will make players better on individual skills with steph it's more for playing a team game that players get better at.
@@juliansearcie1758 Far from it my man
Just think about it. MJ was an UBER athletic Draymond ON BOTH SIDEZ OF THE BALL mentally and physically. Imagine Dray running around talking shit witta 50 inch vert LMAO
MJ leadership is to punch teammates when they show him up
Timmy is lead by example
I dunno how Curry leads
Did you not listen?
Which one of those they call the goat?
Jordan wasnt humble
yet players these days are expected to be humble
(make it make sense)
Jordan is not humble but IN A GOOD WAY, that's what steeve kerr said, MJ still the GOAT.
Catchy title but.. wrong: Steph and Tim as great as they are, they were never leaders of the team.. not in the strict formula. People need to learn the difference between great/best players and leaders ASAP! Apart from scoring, Manu and Tony had more clutch moments than Timmy and were deciding the strategy of the team prior and on the spot REGULARLY! Also, Iggy and Dray have shown leadership attributes that Steph lacks.
P.S. A few proper leaders to help the ignorants: MJ, Kobe, Manu, AI, Hakeem, Charles, Larry, Magic, Dirk, Joker, Luka, Giannis, Wade( further explanation: the best player of Heat's repeat was LeBron, the leader of the team was D-Wade..and it was not even close...)
Steph is not on the same level as Tim Duncan in terms of leadership.
No....but I do believe that he's grown into being a good one, and THIS Steph, who beat Boston, is the best version so far....He's taking over games and NOT letting his team lose. I told my mate that if 2022 Steph played in the 2016 Finals, the Cavs don't win it - even with Lebron playing at the level he was.
Where is your mask, Stevie?
Honestly, I never played basketball professionally and have never seen MJ in person and I am still terrified of MJ 😅
mj didn’t have to lead he had pippen and it was a weak era, timmy’s era is the most competitive having shaq and kobe on the same team and still won specially with that 2003 when he literally carried that team, curry isn’t a leader as the media want to portrait dray is the voice on that team so as iggy and defensively together with klay and who ever(bogut, looney, west) in the interior, they just let curry and klay be them just jack up three’s, love how gsw system, too unselfish
A weak era??? He came into the league during the Lakers/Celtics dynasties and finished against Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, Iverson, etc. The 90's were almost certainly the peak of the NBA. Every team had at least one superstar hall of famer including Isiah Thomas/Joe Dumars, Clyde Drexler, Malone/Stockton, Reggie Miller, David Robinson, Hakeem, Patrick Ewing, Dominique Wilkins, I could go on... There's a reason why no US Olympic team has been called the DREAM TEAM since the 90's. It was a more physical game with fewer foul calls. Every team had at least one 7 footer. Fast breaks were the rule not the exception. Actually, 2000-2010 is one of the lowest scoring periods in modern NBA history, despite the rules having been changed to make it less physical. The Lakers and Spurs were the only truly great teams of the time. Some players like KD and Steph entered the league during this time, but were still developing. Any of the players from the 90's I listed above would have dominated in the weak 2000's.
@@atomicsmith LOl did he win in the 80’s, 90’s was the weakest since the 80’s 6 team expansion watered down the talent level of the league, kodus to the bulls though for taking advantage, LOL 2000-2010 weak cmon kiddo, because it’s low scoring?😂😂😂, stop it casual your too funny 😂
@@marksines1246 How are the 6 expansion teams an argument for the 2000's. If it watered down the league in the 90's then they still water down the league even now. Those teams weren't taken away at any point. The truth is even now there are dozens of NBA caliber players not drafted every year. Also those expansion teams were very weak for their first 10 years so they didn't water down other teams, they just sucked for quite a long time because of the way the expansion draft worked. The playoffs are still the playoffs with the same number of teams.
@@atomicsmith LOL really? you got to get yourself together kiddo!
@@marksines1246 You know you're not forming any coherent arguments right? Calling someone kiddo isn't going to convince any one of anything.
I live in Chicago. No one paid attention to Kerr coming to the Bulls. We all knew he was Paxon's and BJ's understudy. But the big question was is he clutch like Paxon was. Enter a great understudy making one of the biggest clutch shots in NBA History. Kerr met every challenge as a player head on and was successful. Met every challenge as a coach head on and has proven to be one of the greatest coaches in NBA History. He doesn't like,he doesn't have to. He was right there with some of the greatest players in NBA History. Love and respect Kerr for what he has given and added to our game. 🙏
I want you to clutch my balls.
Forsure. Great take
Steve is straight up winner
I agree but he was bjs replacement as he went to charlotte
Man's just got love for the game. Respect
A buddy of mine used to play pro hockey and we were just chatting about in basketball how some of the greatest coaches who used to play were role players. I don't think there are any stars who became good coaches, unless you count Bird in Indiana and I kind of don't, love him, but that team was built already and he bolted pretty quick. My buddy said that's also true in hockey, and he speculated that those are the guys who spent the most time actually being coached, and seeing what the coach was doing, so if they had an aptitude, like Kerr said, they had an apprenticeship. Anyway, Kerr's awesome. I saw him play in college, he's always been a good dude, and here he is just killing it at the highest level.
That generally holds in all sports. There may be another factor as well. Often, the superstar players have established such a status for themselves that: a) they may not have patience for players who don't have their ability; and b) they may not want that type of grind after retiring.
Whatever the reasons, Kerr has become a great coach, and a wonderful interview.
Steve Kerr says it was harder back then. Case closed.
Back then, they practiced harder, scrimmaged harder. Now, let’s shorten the season for this contactless sport.
I don't know about that. The playoffs have been physical. I personally don't want to see WWF in the NBA. It doesn't seem like basketball when you can physically maul your opponent. Just my opinion.
@@imoretullv243 physically mauling your opponent is called defense
@@Zombitopia till some thugs shorten careers of those lots more talented than them. Sure some enjoy violence more than sports
@@Zombitopia I like it the way it is now. Defense in the playoffs with good intensity but doesn't severely affect the movement of the player trying to shoot like you're tackling the player. Besides the league wants more fluid movement for higher ratings.
@@imoretullv243 it's low ratings nowadays that means only a few idiots like you like it
MJ’s leadership style was more like lead by example. He’s like if i give 110% effort to every game and every practice then you have no right to give anything less.
More like leadership through fear and intimidation. Tons of other leaders lead by example (LeBron, Kobe, Tim Duncan, Steph Curry) without punching out teammates, planting stories in the press about teammates, bullying rookies, and trash talking people during practice daily.
@@imtryinghere1 men needs to be lead by strong men not weak men. And thats why none of all you mentioned attained what he attained except maybe for Kobe.
if you wanted to be the best of the best one needs to go through fire. There is no second place
@@imtryinghere1 Go hug a tree.
@@One.Zero.One101 Go tell that to Charles Barkley as a response to why Jordan threw away their 20 years of friendship after Barkley made correct, critical analysis about the mismanagement mistakes at the Charlotte Bobcats/Hornets. In reality, because Jordan is so insanely petty, perfectionist and cannot take the slightest aspect of anything not being his way, he has to curse out and intimidate everyone around him. His final words to Barkley were "F*** You, MFer." And Barkley was literally just doing his job and said the same thing half a dozen other people in the media had said. I guess Barkley needs to just go "hug a tree".
This generation of basketball fans are definitely the most abnoxious, arrogant, and misinformed bunch I've seen in any sports since the 80s. They have never experienced the presence that MJ use to give to everyone in the world. I never played professional basketball or anything but in the early 90s me and my group of friends were Pistons and Knicks fans. And Michael used to put the fear in us through our TV! We used to be scared to talk bad about him in our homes because we thought he could somehow hear us lol. I'm tellin ya good times lol.
Couldn't agree more. Many are basically delusional. They also rewrite history, and talk about seasons that they never even watched. It's really weird. I grew up in the 90s, but I used ESPN classic to watch the 80s games. I don't think these kids have actually watched the games. Jordan will always be respected and feared ten times more than any superstar of today, like lebron. Lebron and these guys just aren't built the same way psychologically. Most of them come across as pu$$ies.
And teams like Phoenix in '93 were STACKED. And these kids say Jordan didnt have "competition" in the finals???? and The Utah jazz SWEPT the lakers with shaq and young Kobe in 98! These kids have no idea what they're talking about. Jordan was just too good, and too competitive. That's why the Bulls always won. And I'm a laker fan, since I was a little kid in the 80s. Not chicago bulls fan
Lmao me too i would be nervous the whole game thats how good he was
U r joking aren't u?
@@mrgolfer1576 You never saw jordan play huh? Thats why you think hes joking.
@@martinaraujo8146 I'll tell ya man, from the beginning when they inbounded the ball to Michael, we were ALL like "get the ball out of his hands NOW!!" That's a threat level no other player I've seen since has made me feel lol.
Jordan was like Bobby Knight? Scream, yell, swear but absolutely loved the game of basketball.
That's actually a very good comp.
MJ once in lifetime or maybe ever!
Not "maybe"
can't argue with that
MJ the Damn GOAT
Curry really doesn't have to say much to lead because he is really a co-leader along with the mouth of the team (Draymond).
Love me some Steve Kerr. He's highly intelligent and able to self reflect as well as evaluate others. Respect.
gay
Steve kerr is one heck of a man and player and a great coach
