    I was in middle school and high school when Jordan was winning his last 3 titles. I watched almost every single game on TV during those 3 seasons on that Chicago News channel WGN. I can tell you that it was rare watching a Jordan game where he DIDN'T roast his competition. That's why there are so many youtube videos of "Jordan Roasts this guy or that". He literally destroyed everyone, every game.

    The reason MJ is the GOAT is that he could do whatever he wanted on the court and the majority of defenders were helpless to do anything about it. MJ's game was the most graceful I've ever seen, if you watch highlights of his career watch how he landed. He was like a cat, he always stuck the landing. Which is a very rare talent.

No one speaks about Brady, Messi, LeBron with the same kind of fear.

    I watched the Bulls on WGN. And I’m from Arkansas. I still gets chills when I think about the lights going out and that Alan Parsons Project music playing when the Bulls were being announced. Michael Jordan is THE GOAT and I can’t believe that LeBron tried to claim that title for himself. You don’t declare yourself THE GOAT as it is a title that can only be bestowed upon you. And it has been bestowed…to Michael Jordan. I don’t think anyone else will ever come close. Anyway, I miss those days tremendously. Michael Jordan and The Bulls were a huge part of making a 5’3” white girl want to be practicing or playing the game of basketball at all times when I wasn’t watching it. I’m thankful for growing up during the era of Michael Jordan.

No one can tear down his legacy and commitment to Chicago and the Bulls. Somewhere in Lebron's mind, he knows that he is not the GOAT therefore; he just self- proclaimed himself to be the GOAT and waited for his foolish statement to gain some attention and support.

When Shaq/Penny/Grant Magic eliminated MJ theirs a trash talking that happened like "45 is not 23" something like that and he is not in basketball shape then as always he took it personal, the next year they swept them in the Eastern Conference Finals and in post game interview he still talking about last years failure.

    What people don’t consider about Jordan is that he wasn’t dominating a game by pulling up and draining 3 after 3. He’d kill you with his footwork, and mid range, and then occasionally blow past you for a dunk. He’d consistently drop 45-50 points in the most difficult way, as opposed to 13 3s and 11 FTs.

      Exactly. People forget he put pride in his fundamentals and footwork. Like Ted said, lol. His first step was crazy quick. If he faked you, forget it. He's either scoring on the whole team around the rim or getting a dunk. He consistently scored 40-60 points in the most physical way at times. Don't get wrong. His 3 would shine at times, too, but not on 11-20 attempts like today. It would be 5-7 at best. It was still accurate, though. For someone who didn't focus on 3, still averaging 40% is kinda nuts. That's why he the goat.

      A lot of people don't realize that whenever Jordan shot any meaningful volume (more than 1.5 attempts), he shot at today's standard.. This includes 38% on 3 attempts in 1990 regular season, or 39% on 4 attempts for the 93' Playoffs, or 43% on 5 attempts in the 92' Finals.. Notice how the efficiency increases with volume - that's what happens when great shooting form gets in rhythm, so Jordan would have a lot of "shrug" games in today's higher volume 3-point format.

I watched Artis Gilmore (a completely under-respected big man) struggle with a completely bush-league squad in the late 70-'s and early 80's. I was an absolutely huge Lakers fan because of Kareen, COOP! and Jamaal Wilkes (whose bent elbow shooting style I tried to duplicate for years). And then Michael strolled into my home town. What can I say, it was like the 1985 Bears, but for 13 years. After 1991, it was like Walter Payton (MJ) had everything around him, a REAL team, not for one season, but time after time. To this day, I cry watching videos of Walter and MJ, for the latter because he is the GOAT and for the former because with the talent he deserved around him in his peak, he would have been the GOAT. And let's be clear, for better or worse (I do not want to support the leagues and the level of damage the players suffered), in both the NFL and NBA, offenses are allowed by the rules to abuse the game, and defensive aggression (which of course involves a much higher degree of contact and VIOLENCE) is aggressively penalized. MJ played with 1) hand checking, 2) excessive contact rarely being called, 3) travelling was real (oh please, mf, shut up, everyone gets 3-4 steps to the bucket now, it was considered insane to get TWO from 1990-2003), just as in the NFL you had "They Call Me Assassin", very late hits, head targeting, stickum (look it up, kids), and so on.
    So, the point is not "Let's bring back the level of violence of the 80's and 90's." My favorite Chicago Bears players DIED horrible, painful deaths from their injuries. DO NOT BRING IT BACK. But don't pretend that you can compare racking up MJs averages (considered per game, for his position in the league, surviving those years of constant physical VIOLENCE that ) with LeBron, who didn't have to deal with ANY that, especially after 2003. Or even Kareem, who arguably had an environment even worse than Jordan in some ways (hard to say who was more physical, the Celtics or the Bad Boys Pistons).

    At 7:20, Ray Allen admitted a fact that many don't like to hear or admit. The NBA is a different game now than it used to be, guys average most of their points from free throws. This makes it so that they are being allowed to just go freely to the basket, or freely shoot wide open shots for fear of foul trouble from an opposing team. Because they call foul on everything nowadays, why do we think "flopping" is a thing. The new rules on what a flagrant and flagrant 2 foul is, is just sad. The fact that the players averaged the points they did in the 80-90s is highly commendable, and those numbers would almost double if they had the current NBA rules.
    As amazing as 40-50ft 3-pointers are, tomahawk dunks every other possession, and some cool cross-overs with hesitations and step backs; it is actually proving that maybe, just maybe the game is become a little soft. No need to be a 2-way player anymore, just try to dazzle with offense, maybe a "chase down block or two" for the highlight reel, win-lose-or draw. Who cares if you win if you got the highlight reel, right. Different age and era unfortunately. Everyone wants to shoot the pill, yet most don't want to put in work stopping the other team.

    It tells you something, when a player of a caliber, like Ray Allen, tells you that MJ would average 45 today. He averaged 30+ every season when hand check was allowed. These days he'd average 30 only from FT. Not to add that he'd surely still sunk, do mid shots and add to his 3 points attempts. Kids today, that only watched NBA from 2010, don't understand the mentality of the greatest player that ever stepped on the basketball court. He'd do anything to win. Only Kobe can be mentioned in same sentence as MJ, because he had that same mentality. R.I.P. Kobe.
