![Michael Jordan full highlights 1996 ECF G4 at Magic - 45 pts [60fps]](/img/n.gif)
His midrange game by this point was so dominant that he didn’t even have to really use his athleticism much unless it was absolutely necessary.Pure basketball genius and the the greatest player ever.
Rick Scorsese just different man
Rick Scorsese 100% correct! The man won 3 straight Finals in the his mid-30's on a fade-away shot...crazy!
Rick Scorsese no argument
Well said. He didn't neeed a 3 point shot to dominate. He had 10 scoring titles without it lol. Greatest mid range shooter ever. As well
Wait till lebron masters that midrange. He has 5 years left.
All of his records are impressive yes. But it was his style, everything he did was so beautiful, precise and almost flawless. With MJ was all poetry on the court.
his movement is the most aesthetically beautiful.
Almost?
What MJ did especially during the second half of his bulls career wasn’t basketball , it was art
drizzy239 Perfectly said! I couldn't have said it any better... Excellent post!!!
Dude, you said it. How does a guy going from being the most athletically gifted player at that time to its most lethal midrange shooter and dominant post player? By 1996-97, he was pretty much average athletically as far as NBA SGs (he still had the giant hands, though). He just learned how to use footwork and angles to his advantage.
the first half was unbelievable
drizzy239 😭
He was always an artist even from his rookie year, just different levels. '91-93 Jordan was the most balanced blend of his freakish athleticism and driving aggressiveness with his long-developed lethal technique, footwork, and mid-range game. But '96 Jordan to the end of his career was basically Picasso with a paintbrush who will either get you a guaranteed bucket in the post/mid-range or a beautiful last-second assist. The 90s wasn't ready for post-Detroit Mike.
The footwork, athleticism & overall basketball savvy simply made him the GOAT.
Like a dancer. Looks choreographed. Has the defender on strings. And if the defender doesn't want to be a puppet, he'll adjust on the Fly and still be effective. And it will still look like art. Lol.
Beauty in motion
Exactly, everything was like art.
That’s what the difference, Couldn’t say it any better thats what’s the difference between LeBron and MJ
@@laurenceclay1065 and done to highest level of competition
No, Jesus is the greatest of all time.
I’m 34 years old,I remember watching him play basketball when I was 9. I’m glad that I witness the greatest that ever play the game, he was phenomenal no one has a killer instinct like MJ
@A K another '87 born here, with same feelings.👌🏾✌🏻 Nice era, Thank God! 🏀🙏🏻
he broke someones ankles without even taking a dribble 🐐
A-man Ankola Facts
LMAO CRAZY!
Curry did too
SnipeV 1400 but this era has more ball handling
This is just pure artistry. Jordan was painting masterpieces in his mid 30s when occasionally he went up in the air . Won 3 championships in mid 30s with a pure jumpshot, post moves, footwork near flawless which shows you he can any shot he wanted and made him so unpredictable. MJ=GOAT. Stop comparing LeBron to this man it's not even close
Louis Velez thank you sir (without a pick L3-6ron ain't shit but a passer
it's nice to meet you and i did do and will rank the best players ever in this EXACT order #1 TIED wilt chamberlain and bill russell #2 oscar robertson #3 kareem abdul-jabbar #4 michael jordan #5 magic johnson #6 larry bird #7 jerry west #8 hakeem olajuwon #9 shaquille o'neal #10 elgin baylor #11 bob pettit #12 pete maravich #13 george mikan #14 bob cousy and #15 john havlicek
Not even close
I saw MJ play live about a dozen times. What Allen Iverson says is so spot on, MJ doesn't look real, he looks like a computer image because he's so freakin smooth.
Never see anything like him.
Simply perfection.
Closest thing to him was Kobe when it comes to the footwork
One of the things MJ did so well was taking 1 or 2 dribbles before making a shot unlike today’s spaz players taking a billion dribbles before taking a shot. Pure efficiency by MJ
This is called "IQ", Mike knew where he shot the best (at the right elbow and the right corner mostly)
The greatest athelete of the 20th century. He raised the bar so high you cant see it anymore. Truly, the perfect basketball player.
Nobody played the mental game like Mike. He literally willed his team to 2 3-PEATS without ever having a good big man on the team. Amazing.
To his credit, Horace Grant is a decent bigman
@@mozdaboz true but is he on the level of a Kareem or Kevin mchale type
Dennis Rodman?
@@JonJontv23that’s asking for a bit much
GOAT. No question. And that turn-around jumper... my God.
No one scored the basket ball like MJ but what really stood out in this montage was his passing. As Pippen said, MJ did what he needed to do to win. If his had to get 15 assists, he’d do it. If he needed to get 15 rebounds, he’d do it. If he needed to get 50, he’d do it. Because a dude doesn’t try to get a triple double every game, doesn’t mean he can’t. Remember he got 11 triple-doubles out of 12 games when he played as a point guard.
the greatest of all time. I love watching Kobe, Lebron, Durant, but MJ is the greatest of all time. How can someone be this good
I heard nothing but the net for 10 mins. GOAT shit 🐐
This Jordan guy was an absolute killer on the court. He was so skillful , masterful , and ultra tough mentally. If there was any open look, It was all over. He basically did whatever he wanted. Truly a man of many crafts. Low post, mid range, long range, passing, and defense. Michael Jordan was simply the best.
Saddens me. Almost to the point of tears that the Jordan era is over. No other player with his finesse, fundamentals, balance, athleticism, and determination has come ever since he retired. Basketball misses this kind of player.---Basketball Fan
when that guy retired, i quit watching NBA, i started again to watch in 2015
You have 23 likes, that'll do.
🤔 bullshit...KOBE
@A6 Life Nahhh its like driving a ferrari laferrari and then driving a corvette c7 and thinking there the same car.
_D3LTA-3_ no it's like having a 1984 Ferrari and then seeing a new model 2018 and not liking it..because your use to the old thing even tho the new one built off the old model..and is faster and better 👌🏾
What defines him as the greatest player ever??? When coaches and players were aware of the "FACT" that if you made Jordan mad, the consequences that followed... EVERYONE knew!!!
therealist811 don't let his fans here you say that, they'll start talking about stats lol...
Jeremy Silas and they don’t put those stats in any form of context
The reality is though that when you look at ALL the stats, his numbers are the best overall. Media and LBJ fans are facetious. LBJ has longevity stats over MJ and that's pretty much it. Total points doesn't mean much except that LBJ has already played much longer than MJ.
When you look at per game statistics and countless other areas, MJ is still the greatest. This numbers argument is asinine and usually it's some kid that is regurgitating ESPN bs without actually knowing the specifics. LBJ's numbers are not better than MJ's overall, period.
And that's not even assessing for the ease of scoring on today's NBA or how there are more possessions per game and more free throws per game. Countless more foul calls etc.
And playoff and Finals numbers - all MJ. He has 40+ playoffs and Finals records. The most by far. Bill Russell is number two with 15 records. It's not even close. LBJ barely registers with less than 10.
I could go on and on. The numbers argument by ESPN is one of countless lies today's media is willing to tell for the sake of enriching themselves and the NBA. It's not even close to the truth anymore.
By this point, MJ was dominant mentally. He was fundamentally sound with no weakness in his game.
The biggest difference between Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant is that MJ was an artist while Kobe was just a practitioner. The biggest difference between Michael Jordan and LeBron James is that MJ used his skills to blend in with his team while LeBron uses his to pad the stats and then expects his team to blend in with him. Michael Jordan = true greatness.
MJ got to his spots & scored at will. He's kind of like Kevin Durant with his style of play just having no wasted motions & scoring easily but MJ is way more active off the ball, has more footwork, less dribbling, didnt use a lot of unnecessary moves but had enough counters if needed if the defense telegraphed any of his moves and was more aggressive offensively constantly putting pressure on the defense by shooting a high volume of shots & still being effecient.
With all the spacing in todays NBA, players have a lot of freedom to do different dribbling packages. Durant dribbles a lot often using different packages like crossovers & hesi dribbles. KD doesnt over-dribble a lot to the degree of a Harden or does indecisive dribbling like a Kyrie; KD is straight to the point wit his dribbling but even when he dribbles the offense still becomes stagnant & it becomes typical ISO ball with everyone watching before KD creates separation from a crossover or gets a defender offbalence wit a hesi move.
MJ in the triangle offense never really ISOed, actually nobody really ISOed, if MJ brought the ball up he initiated the offense by feeding the ball in the post or finding an open cutter & after MJ did that he moved without the ball to generate an open shot for himself. If MJ actually had to do anything off the dribble, never really used a crossover at all, probably would only crossover people once in a while, most of the time it was a quick side to side two dribble move & then he scored. Only dribbling move MJ did was a hesi move but MJ didnt need to a lot of dribbling before he did his hesi like a KD, MJ just did the hesi in a quick decisive way without really doin a dribble package. KD has a habit of standing in the corner when he doesnt have the ball which isnt necessarily a bad thing because your still generating a lot of space standing in the corner & corner 3s open up the offense but its still lazy to a degree cause when your standing in the corner its like your giving up on the play.
MJ was never satisfied trying to creating offense, if MJ didnt get the ball he moved without the ball constantly trying to get the ball back creating an opportunity for his team or himself. Also MJ is better getting paint shots & midrange shots, KD relies more on 3s & 3s are more streaky. U can argue KD is more efficient wit how he scores & he scores more easily wit his height & overall shooting ability & I think in a actual one on one game KD would beat MJ. But basketball isnt just 1 on 1, within the game MJ is a better scorer wit his mentality & his complete arsenal.
@@anthonycelestin3559
Well said..and deserves those paragraphs, never will we see such greatness and such hunger for winning ever EVER.
One thing i notice about Jordans and Lebrons passing game, is that there are many times when Lebron passes for the sake of passing and actually puts pressure on his team mates to create on their own with someone on them. Whereas Jordan always passed for the right reason, he was being doubled, and there was an easier shot for his team mate as a result. People don't pay this enough attention when comparing the two players. To me it is just one of many reasons why Lebron does not even come close to the goat.
Thank You - media makes so much of passing while conveniently ignoring how LBJ's passing is a function of the position he plays. He's the only playmaker and controlling 90% of his team's possessions is his job and the nature of the Cavs system.
MJ played in the Triangle which spreads passing around to create shots and he was the shooting guard, a back court player that played off the ball. He's supposed to have less assists - but his passing ability with his huge hands that gripped the ball is better than LBJ's, period.
It's all about pushing narratives today by corporate media. They're trying to make money.
One thing I noticed is that LeBron sucks shit and Jordan doesn't.
Thank You I've noticed that too for awhile. Lebrons passing is way overrated. Jordan was great passer. It just gets overshadowed because how incredible of a scorer he is
@@mikehsu5872, just like Mike's 3ball was underrated. He could make the three consistently but he didn't shoot a lot of 3's because he didn't need too.
Exactly! He creates or waits for the double team and then finds the open man for an open shot. Most of his assists created a dunk or lay up. Also, he wasnt surrounded with a bunch of 3 pointers and stretch 4s.
there was something about watching him play. The only other person did there thing as good mj was the other mj at dancing lol
He is so underrated passer.
Srdjan Kovač I almost forgot how good of a passer Rodman was. Glad we have these videos.
chrisx2k6 yeah rodman kinda had all around game 😀
Srdjan Kovač Very aware offensively, always in position for a rebound, a good pic or to keep the ball swinging to the right guy. And defensively? We all know the story there.
Better version of Dreymond
These need more views, this is the Greatest of All-Time. It's saddening how quickly people forget...
Brian Jose kids who don't watch MJ plays loves LeBron James and Steph Curry
Jordan 34 years old performing complex surgery out there.
Creativity, grace, fundamentals and efficiency. That's MJ.
MJ was already 33\34 years old by this point and past his prime. I bet you couldn't tell....
That Jumpshot was truly a thang of beauty.
3:50. Jordan gets stripped, loose ball rolling toward half court. No violation risk but two players approaching to take it. Jordan looks, sees where the ball is as he trots to retrieve it. In a second he glances back, makes a note of where his team/defenders are, and then he turns toward the ball to grab it make that pass before that 2nd defender got back. This play worked because MJ a) had the balls to look away from a loose ball to see where people would be after he picked it up; b) had a quick enough mind to scan the floor, turn around, and remember where people were when he turned back; and c) thought two moves ahead in the first place, when every other player would just prioritize securing the possession. It's an insignificant play, but the small things that get missed because of the truly spectacular.
Jordans Mid Range Is so Legendary ,There's nothing you can do about it At All
I love bron but damn! MJ is on another level, not even close man!🐐
GOAT
Anyone realize he was doing the step back (without traveling) way before these NBA kids of nowadays 😂 #ThaGoat🐐🔥🙌
My GOD. MJ was just different! GOAT 🐐. Set the standard for guards of today 💯. @MJ23 His Airness Forever great work on these offensive montages. Please keep them coming!
Jordan moves like no other.
Jordan was a underated passer 🏀
I ask you, does any other player who ever played this game, look as good as Jordan playing? That jumpshot is the most aesthetically pleasing thing to watch, and the absolute ease at which he confuses and confounds his opponents is breathtaking. No other player has ever had this same skill level playing basketball, the Greatest ever is Jordan.
Footwork. Footwork. Footwork. + incredible balance + fundamentals + athleticism + a desire to score + confidence + IQ + killer instinct = MJ
At this point of his career, he might have lost a tiny something athletically, but his footwork was just impeccable.
Yea, he slowed a bit. I can see it as I saw him before and during his prime play live.
He got wiser. He play the game on the most easiest way but what put him above others is tha he all the time put some sose on his moves, just for the fans! He is also a great entertainer along with that that he is by far the best player ever! MJ 🐐
This man will kill this era and average 45. You just can’t guard this guy without beating him up like Piston.
Damn....... if you think someone else did it better than this guy, you don’t know basketball. The man had so much arsenal and pure athleticism
you never saw same thing twice. He was just the most amazing athlete ever unstoppable. the goat
These Jordan year are my favorite even though they aren't his best. League had caught up to his dominant athleticism and was like "ok, watch this..." The late career transition to a jumpshooter is why he's still #1.
His jumper is money
Jay Scribe Casshhhh
greatest watchable player of all time for sure
Jordan game was just amazing to watch. @ 0:27
I miss watching MJ dominate. He'll always be the GOAT, in my opinion. (Craig Ehlo is a close second)
Put tht crack rock down bro its bad for ya health smdh.. Nobody comes 2nd to mike except his shadow
😅
Alan Houston and John Starks were both tremendous defenders in that time and still couldn't stop him -only bothering him. He had total domain of the court.
What was amazing to me back in the 90s was how MJ and da Bulls would elevate their game in the post season. Greatest Dynasty ever
As a student of the game, I’m a huge MJ fan. Note the high number of 3 pointers in this highlight reel. The reason is that for three seasons, the league shortened the 3 point line to 22 feet all around. (The standard NBA 3 point dimensions are 23.75 feet on the high arc and 22 feet on the corners.) The reason for this was as an experiment to try to increase scoring in what was becoming an increasingly defensive oriented game. Jordan shot .427 from 3 land in1995-1996 and .374 in 1996-1997. These rank among the highest for his career. Starting in 1997-1998 the NBA switched back to the old dimensions and Jordan shot .238 from 3 point range that season. This highlight reel is a lot of fun because it gives you an idea what Jordan’s game would look like today with the relaxed defense on the perimeter. Today’s weak perimeter defense is equivalent to shortening the 3 point line as they did in the mid-90’s.
Peter Regal actually it was 93 to 97 it was shortened. Mj dislocated a finger on his shooting hand before 98 season so he was ineffective from 3.
His 3pt percentage went due to him playing with torn ligaments in his index finger. Not because they moved the line back. He shot 38% from the original line in 89. He also only attempted a little over 100 3’s the entire season in 98. Every year he shot bad from 3 was due to him not attempting enough 3’s to get a rhythm. When he attempted at 2.5 a game he shot high 30’s-40’s. But he never relied on the 3ball.
dtown Man
The exact years were the 1994-1995, 1995-1996, and 1996-1997 seasons. Perhaps I should have also mentioned the 1994-1995 even though he only played 17 games and the playoffs. For the record, he shot .500 from 3 point land even from that small sample of games.
bcjclj
No doubt he could shoot better from 3 point land if he had focused on it. My point was to highlight how modern relaxed perimeter defenses allow for a lot more 3 pointers than in the golden era of hoops. Here is a sick mental exercise: Imagine Larry Bird’s 3 point game in the modern of matador (Ole!) defense instead of in the hand checking, perimeter-mugging defense of the golden age. Larry Legend could easily shoot .500 or higher from 3 point land in today’s game.
Peter Regal perimeter defence are more intense than any other generation now because everybody can litrally shoot the 3 wtf are you watching?even in this vid the opposition are either guarding the paint or midrange
He's pretty good at basketball
Keywan Bernard not better than Lavar though.
I dont think that he’s good enough to be in the nba. There so many other players who deserve to be in the nba.
Sometimes I feel he is overrated...😂
Lol
Watching MJ school entire teams over and over is a meal of such finery I actually feel guilty eating it!! But it is sooooooo 😋 delicious. Luv the Goat!!
Those half spin fadeaways.... 💵
With Mj, you can make at least 10 highlight moves in one game hahaha.. You just can't see that anymore in today's NBA.. GOAT
Beautiful footwork
He can score outside he can score inside the offense 🐐
How satisfying is watching a poetry in motion!!!
Nuff said!!!!
I dont care about stats, but his style so flawless plus the grace! No argument!
The Best ever hands down.
as a kobe fan.... damn he was no where near MJ's level in those fade aways. MJ definitely was more athletic and played "longer". He definitely creates more space and jumps higher on his jump shots...
that what separates MJ to kobe, MJ can even think to shot or to pass (because he still hanging in the air), and Kobe tend to force his shots
And your boy Kobe leads the NBA all time in missed shots, was always a poor man's Jordan ain't even have his own style. LeBron and Kobe would take Jordans career, and individual numbers...pssst, (cuz horry has more rings than Jordan) it's _a lot of players better than Kobe. LeBron all time playoffs points leader. Jordan and Wilt only ones to average 30 for a career. Kobe FG PCT is right with Mike Beasley. Sorry I typed so long. And LeBron got more finals and regular season MVPs than Kobe, but not brother Jordan.
Statistically speaking, mj is on a different level than every other great player, Kobe included
@Terry sullivan Kobe is tops in most missed shots of all time, look it up. Kobe ain't top ten on everyone's list. Just clowns like yourself who don't know good basketball vs volume scoring. Shaq was the finals MVP every ring with LA. In game 7 vs Boston Kobe shot like 6 of 24 ,look it up, and Lakers still won. I can't stand nut swingers like you. They beat a one man team in Philly, the Nets,and an over the hill Pacer squad , and Dwight Howard. Your next comment gets no response 😄😅😂
@@derrickharris4931 conveniently leaves out that Kobe was playing on a broken finger and grabbed 15 rebounds in that game 7
No flaws in his game or career. You can nitpick, but he doesn't have glaring criticisms that even guys like lebron or kobe have. There's levels to this stuff, and mj is at the top
Let's not forget that , his defense was still just as good as ever too during the last 3 peat in his mid 30s.
With the rage of fire and grace like water, His Airness shook the earth because he has the heart of a Champion. With his killer instinct he brought life to the game. The GOAT made all others look like lambs led to the slaughter. He truly was poetry in motion. Kings pay homage and Warriors take notice, the Thunder quakes, and Pistons shake, Lakers are but a drop in the ocean, Rockets can't handle the commotion, because they all fall short when he steps on the court. It's his basketball, they just get to play with it.
95-98 MJ was just so skilled
He was soooooo smooth
Even when he misses the shot, what he does to get to his spot is performance art!
So good! Thanks for uploading this masterpiece
GOAT no question
He even fakes me out with that fade away and I'm not even guarding him 😂
Imagine him today being able to utilize a gather step. Would be absurd.
Is there anything more beautiful in this great game than a Michael Jordan fadeaway jumper? I personally don't think so. It's a work of art.
It’s like watching a faster quicker and stronger version of Kobe
Watch and learn carefully, 7:40 - 7:43 thats the real stepback jumpshot kids, pure footwork. No need to travel or double stepback.
My god, how good was that spin at 1:19?!?!
Why people telling me MJ couldn't shoot 3's? From what i see he could have shot as many as he wanted and been very good at it.
Deorbrick Robinson this is only showing u the shots that go in...
@@georgecraker8972 we could goggle the stats to see the man shot a good % from 3, all i was say i wasnt just mid range guy he wasnt scared to shoot the 3 it just wasnt the thing in the 90's they had specialist like Kerr and Paxson.
Notice how fluid his movements are, no wasted movements, footwork and pump fake are on the money. He makes it too easy.
The best of the best MJ 👍🏀💪
Breaking Malik Sealy's ankles off a post pivot into a fadeaway, while only palming the ball, is insane.
No wasted movement no over dribbling lighting the ass up with one or two dribbles
He was a lot smarter at this point in his career. Even though he couldn't jump like he used to, he was not the least bit guardable.
I think that the most underrated part of MJs game was his passing. He turned faking his opponents in midair into an art form.
No one can guard this man bruh stop it.
Forever the Greatest.
Tanks mn
Greatest.Of.All.Time
Makes me laugh to hear, "the Dirk fadeaway." Jordan made it beautiful and everyone wanted to do it. I did it before I ever heard of a nowitzki, God bless Dirk though.
Dirk's fader is different, technically to Jordan's. So they're right when they say that.
He usually shot it one-legged, using it to create separation from the defender.
Plus he is like 7ft with a high release, so his shot was just different to Jordan. Kobe is the one that really copied MJs fader.
Hell, even Hakeem in the late 80s and all of the 90s had a devastating fader that he abused more than the dreamshake.
That fadaway 🔥🔥🔥
look at all those hand-checks
The UNDISPUTED GOAT 🐐
I started watching NBA in 1993, I was lucky to witness his third finals. I think his game was even more entertaining than after his first retirement. I remember he was a little faster.
Watching jordan play and revolutionize the game in the 80's and watching him still play and continue to revolutionize the game in the late 90's...no other words for that but greatness
Jordan made Kobe.. the 2 best shooting guards of all time.. did u hear me!!!!
From "air Jordan" to "jumpshot Jordan"
no comment you mean from?"air jordan" to "fundementals jordan"
therealist811 he still had a lot of air on those fades though. Beautiful. And look at the footwork.
He’ll still bust that ass with those jump shots tho! 🐐
beautiful moves.
Mj killed the game mentally . Lbj did it physically . So , mj is greater . Everyone knows basketballs more of a mind game than physical . Settled
Well, today they have taken away the physicality that used to exist. The player nowadays don't have to think their way through games. They depend on their athleticism a bit too much.
Greatest ever, but also best mid range jump shooter ever, and it is not even close. Just the degree of difficulty on those shots alone makes him the best mid range player ever, bc he hit them at such a high percentage. Underrated strength, handle, the balance he played with I have never seen anyone else play with. Nothing looks shaky, ever. Supposedly Lebron is the better athlete, but not really. Those turnarounds are so very difficult it is ridiculous, and he made them look easy. Kobe had a nice post game but nowhere near MJ. I cannot understand older people who say he is not the greatest.
And people say Kobe mastered his game lmaoooo
Not even 1 complaint about fouling a beard, not 1 complaint about a phantom hand hitting an arm, and no one using their extended left leg to play defense and guard the player in the wing like LOAT LJ.
0:42 🐐
