    Hearing this, it makes so much sense why Jordan is so far ahead of everyone in history, he was just willing to outwork you. Bigger, stronger, faster, fine, whatever but nobody works as hard as MJ did he was a machine. Especially in light of Nepotism James recent draft. Jordan basically saying "F you" when they were going to bring him to the majors due to the strike just speaks to his character. More people need that mindset. Another awesome video!

    • @TheRealMindCrime

    The fundamental for a player is like a foundation of a building, the stronger and stable of a foundation will see how tall and high the building can go up to, so the more fundamental sound a player is, the more success that player can achieve, my father who is also a national grade coach for numerous sport, told me this - to be a good player, you need to work and practice hard, to be a great player, you need to have the talent, plus work and practice hard, however if you want to be the top 5% of the player base ( like MJ, Kobe, Messi, Ronaldo ), not only you need the top talent there is, but also work and practice harder than others to be able to achieve that feat.

    What a great and insightful video, Tim was as insane as MJ and it couldn't be otherwise, if you want to be on top this should be the mentality in anything in life!
    This is another knock on the narrative that today's players are better 'cause they are more skilled and as a matter of fact many of them even superstars players don't excell in fundamentals not as MJ of course, but not even as the average player of the 90s; and them being bigger, stronger and faster they also break more.
    But in all of that two things, I can't believe you had the 1991 Bulls cap and you don't have it anymore hahahah
    But second I can already hear LeBron's apologists saying "MJ needed Scottie Pippen, Phil Jackson and Tim Grover to win, LeBron did it all by himself!" what weirdos are they, but if they are ok thinking that, good for them and good luck to them getting anywere and getting anything done in their lives!
