They ain’t ready for those facts. The very least he wins 7 and his stats are a lot higher. Plus more all stars and 1st teams with scoring titles etc. See people like to say no we go off what’s there. Bs bc this truth shows the even more potential he had. Also you don’t count on injuries with a man who never had them plus played through shit players today would sit for less. Hell they already sit out just bc or rest is the excuses. We all know his mentality too. He likes to play ball, he was competitive in everything, and he like others back then respected the fans who showed up to watch them play. He knew someone in the crowd might only have one chance to watch their game live. They also knew the privilege they had to play a GAME and earn money
He played 82 games until he couldn't play anymore. Plus, the last yr he played, they were in playoff hunt until Mike got hurt, and they went on a losing streak and didn't make the playoffs. The team wasn't that good but Mike push the players to play better that's a leader.
ON BOTH ENDS OF THE FLOOR!!!!!! The biggest reason wizards MJ gets overlooked is cause he was so ridiculously elite that his wizards time seemed irrelevant
The one you didn't know was Latrell Sprewell. Also Jordan's years in Washington he basically played on one leg his knee was torched. He started with the Wizards at 38, and played as a 40yr old.
One leg and nine fingers, his dominant index finger got cut while cutting cubans and remind straight with little flexibility after that while he was retired before playing with Wizards.

Jordan played well despite his age, playing in all 82 games during the 2002-03 season at age 40. He averaged 20 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 steals per game. He also became the only 40-year-old in NBA history to score over 40 points in a game multiple times.
Shooting it 22 & 18 shots per game. 22 shots making 41% is not a good thing so let's stop glorifying his wizard years when we have a guy the same age with way better stats. LeBron is shooting above 41% from the 3 lol. Not to mention 4 straight Triple doubles
@@devontewilson151 You can't compare the league in the early 2000s to the current one. Pretty much 2 different sports. Teams were averaging 95.5 and 95.1ppg in those years, they are averaging 113ppg now. Plus, to say Jordan wasn't healthy would be an understatement. He was battling tendinitis on both knees and on his right wrist, his index finger was screwed up after he nearly severed it off in 1999 and he torn his meniscus mid season in 2002. Before the meniscus tear, he was actually outscoring a prime Tmac. In 2002/03, he had to constantly get his knee drained so he could play and somehow still played all 82 games.
MJ proved his GOAT status in Chicago was no “flash in the pan”…MJ was clowning the best in the NBA at the ripe old age of 38-39-40…. On 2 bad knees too…MJ is one of one…👍🎤🔥😎👽
😂😂😂 shooting 41% from the field on 22 attempts is nasty work... Stop the hyperbole!!! LeBron is shooting better than that from 3, not to mention 4 straight Triple doubles. Jordan is not even close to the King at the same age
@@devontewilson151Context is everything. 1. The league absolutely play very little defense these days, it’s much easier to score. 2. LBJ career shooting % is a hair higher than MJ, but highest shot taken by LBJ is 3 feet or less. That absolute inflate his % since it’s so easier to get to the rim with todays’s league. 3. MJ played both side of the ball and never stood around just conserve energy for offense like LBJ.
@@devontewilson151 lol if you think lebron will have a lower FG% with all those layups and dunks.. it woulda been embarrassing.. he cant and will never consistently do mid jumpers cause well.. he just suck at it.
@@devontewilson151Your comment reminds me of the reason why I should never argue with Lebron's fans about that "GOAT" conversation. You guys don't know and understand anything. 😂
Jordan is so great, Kobe (RIP) mirrored all of his moves and became great too. Ain’t nobody mirroring Lebron’s flops and becoming great. Jordan IS the G.O.A.T.
Ppl always talk about Jordan's wizards days like he was terrible but he was actually torching the league and carrying the garbage wizards before injury and was on track to bring them to the playoffs at age 40. There r even interviews of pros from that era.
Now you get to see a large part of the reason why Jordan developed that mid-range game. When your athleticism starts to fail you, those fundamentals won't! Jordan was the definition of "a bucket" bro. He was unguardable even at this age.
@@broshawnjackson154 He did, but it wasnt as polished yet. Also notice the stroke of his shot, totally different from college against 90's MJ. He was developing just about everything in his game.
When MJ came back to play for the Wiz, it was very very noticeable that he had lost a step. And while I wanted him to keep his untouchable legacy, I just told myself to be thankful that we get to see him play again, no matter how far it was from what we remembered of him in his Bulls days. On nights where he had energy and felt good, he was still incredible. Before injuring his knee he was averaging 26 ppg.
4:40 his 2 years in Washington he was 39 and 40. And he played all 82 games one year with broken ribs and bum knees. He was having to get his knees v drained every couple days
This is why people who KNOW laugh when LeBron is even mentioned in the same breath as MJ. THE WORLD would watch Michael’s games because they knew they were going to see something AMAZING every single night!
The fact that they retired MJ’s jersey, in other arenas that he did not play for should tell you that him, and LeBron is not on the same level. His jersey is retired in Chicago with a statue, charlotte, Washington and Miami which is why Lebron could not wear 23 in Miami
I didn't know Pat gave paid that tribute after the goat torched them for years. This organisation is the real one. No wonder they have the love for Jimmy like that. I have the utmost respect for them. Really hope they win one with Jimmy.
what will eventually happen is: Lebron will buy the Bulls, move the team to Vegas and leave that statue there in Chicago as a reminder as Jordan being 2nd greatest scorer of all time.
the best part is his game is 100% skill. None of these ugla *ss drives you see today where people are awkwardly stumbling into the defenders chest and dragging their feet around and throwing up some awkward garbage in hopes of a foul call. No trying to run people over and get cheap contact. No bs 8' step back jumpers. No sitting in the corner and waiting for someone to create an easy shot for you. Jordan was just pure in your face, 1 v1, basketball artistry.
Off the dribble pull up right or left $$$ fadeaway either shoulder right or left side of the court $$$ going baseline or back to the middle $$$ up and under $$$ layup package $$$ played 82 games playing defense I mean cmon 🐐 no weaknesses in his game
Watched Jordan at all 3 stages of his career. At 38-40 stage, he was the wise old owl. Championship bulls Jordan was the complete player. Young Jordan was a human cat . The young Jordan is the greatest player ever. Pure brilliance and total entertainment. WOW!
If Mike never retired early all his records would be unbreakable for many years. I would still take 40 year old MJ over 40 year old Lebron. Any day! By the way, what number does LeBron wear? 23. He wants to be like Mike.
this new generation never seen in the court young jordan played.....if you were their in his prime playing .surely you will speechless of his GREATNESS ..
There was many facets of Jordans game that had diminished from his time off but the one thing that was always elite was his fadeaway. In his 2 years with the Wizards he shot 142- 174 or 81% for his fadeaways.
He was giving them buckets at 40 and on one good leg. They had to force him to not play or have any restrictions. Didn’t matter his age (even early in his career) he always played all out and gave max effort. He’ll always be the real goat yo
Idk why people always ignore Wizards Jordan. He was legit like a top 10 player in the league at 40 years old still. And it looked like he was limping around the court compared to how athletic he was in the 90s
LeBron is the same age. Now you see why we fight for him so hard. I'm from Chicago so I had the pleasure of meeting him due to his teammate married my sorority sister/friend. I don't remember the wedding😂
Good reaction. It's good to see a young man taking time to learn some of the history of the game. Here is the link to the actual Underrated Wizards Years video. The video puts a lot of context to his stint with the Wizards and the hurdles he got over to play those two years. ua-cam.com/video/Zeuk_qZXVXE/v-deo.htmlsi=v6BZFVeHX6_wkP-T
He played on bad knees with the Wizards also. That’s what makes his highlights even more impressive. And he had a couple of back to back 40 plus games a 40. GOAT
Idk if anyone else said this keep in mind they drained his knee his finally 1-2 years every week 2-3 times a week. The report of one time a week isn’t correct. Stories have come out his knee would sweep to size of a melon. Still played all 82 games unlike todays players who are great
Bro, appreciate you giving it a chance and seeing what people really mean with this Jordan 🐐 talk. Jordans stuff was unreal... but so is Bron. I request a Lebron GOAT highlight reaction. Which ever one you think shows his best...
LeBron James in his Miami years he would get beat 30 times in row 1 vs 1 against Micheal Beasley but a 50 year old retired Micheal Jordan gave Beasley that work but no one wants to talk about that
2001-02 season he turned 39 years old in februari 2002. and he turned 40 yrs old in feb 2003, his 2nd and last season with Washington so 39 and 40 yrs old during his Wizards years...
MJ was 38 the start of his first year and 4 months into the season he turned 39. Needless to say buy the end of his second season MJ was 40yrs 5 months old.
Ask yourself a question if the dudes in the past were plumbers, teachers etc and todays athletes are in so much better condition ...why all of the load management? what your generation calls more skilled is not accurate take a look at the lack of defense being played, the wide open lanes the lack of post up moves, Adam Silver has gutted the game and turned it into a shell of what the NBA use to be. This is coming from a fan since 1989 and I do understand that Lebron is what you guys know but Jordan was the greatest I had saw as well but we as a generation understood Magic, Bird, Kareem, Oscar, Russel and many others were on that list without the disrespect of calling those guys who paved the way plumbers and shit. You young guys sit on the shoulders of generations that came before you as my generation sat on the shoulders of those who came before us. Just food for thought, keep educating yourself :)
38-40 years old bruh. This was 3 years after he retired the second time. He retired at 35 and to help the nba with ratings he came back and played on a hurt leg. Fundamentally sound never gets old
Bruh ppl say mj was washed but on the wizards he avg 22 ppg at 40 and as we all see was giving out work with that fadeaway mid range 😂😂unstoppable like Kareem hook shot 😂😂
It's amazing to me to hear these young guys review Michael Jordan videos and talk about everything that he wasn't and then at the end say " I never saw him play ". How can you make an informed judgment about someone if you've never seen them? Or say that someone else is better than them without even researching their stats?
One season he averaged 3.2 , years he averaged 2.9 And another year 2.8 he also had 7 yrs where he averaged over 30 points 37.1 being his highest he also averaged 35, 33 twice 32 ,31,&30 he had a stretch where he 10 triple doubles in 11 games the man was a beast
Latrell Sprewell and Shareef Abdur Rahim My man’s out here saying all these names like he saw them at their best and knows their best, but don’t know Latrell and Sharif 😂 😜 you a rookie champ
He's 40 in these clips! With a bum knee. If his knee was right, there would've been more problems. He retired the year before LeBron was drafted. There is video of LeBron and Jordan playing together on the same squad.🤯😳😳 They would've been unstoppable together.
Bro, when i watched jordan and shaq, i learned how to have a post up game because i loved their foot work. What was crazy is that i was 18 years old then. I was 5'9, 160 and i was a legit floor general type PG, but grew into playing/defending post. I mever played school type ball, but i was an organized street baller 😂
Do remember that in 2001 scientific rehab like it is today was barely a thing. Data led rehab was barely a thing. Advanced recovery didn’t exist. So if Mike had access to what Bron has had for a decade - Mike would have had the exact same longevity and bounce, if not more than Bron.
And if Lebron had the 2nd best player in the Nba on his team and arguably the best coach of all times for 6 years straight he would’ve won 6 rings, we can do “ifs” all day
Jordan was 35 years old when he won his last title with the Bulls in 1998. When he played with the Wizards, he started when he was 38 and then finally retired at the end of his second season at the age of 40.
Jordan was about 38 and played with the wizards for 2 seasons in which most was greatful just to see him play again and he put up a couple of 50 point games with them too and he retired at 35 in 98
Michael Jordan scored 30 points or more in six games while playing for the Wizards. Jordan played for the Wizards in 2001. Some say he was at his best during this time, dominating practices and games. Others say he averaged 20 points per game at the age of 40, even with a knee injury. Michael Jordan played 8 games for the Wizards with 40+ points
MJ played between 38-40 for the Wizards. He was injury riddled and coming out of the Executive seat for two years and suited up for basketball. In his first season he was slowly getting back into shape and his numbers reflected that, I believe he was on pace to get really close to his 98 bulls numbers before suffering a knee injury. You should watch Michael Jordan's underrated years as a wizard here on UA-cam by Jonny Arnett, it's a great video.
He played 82 games and both sides of the floor
@40 👍

With a bad knee.

Idk why people always ignore Wizards Jordan. He was legit like a top 10 player in the league at 40 years old still. And it looked like he was limping around the court compared to how athletic he was in the 90s
He had bad knee problems on the wizards but was def still giving buckets while playing 82 games taking no days off
Wizards Jordan is like prime kawai
LeBron is the same age. Now you see why we fight for him so hard. I'm from Chicago so I had the pleasure of meeting him due to his teammate married my sorority sister/friend. I don't remember the wedding😂
Good reaction. It's good to see a young man taking time to learn some of the history of the game. Here is the link to the actual Underrated Wizards Years video. The video puts a lot of context to his stint with the Wizards and the hurdles he got over to play those two years.

This ! My man always picks the wrong one lol. Magic and Bird's mixtapes he reacted to were not the "Ultimate Mixtape" ! 😅
That's why LeBron wore #6 in Miami!
He played on bad knees with the Wizards also. That’s what makes his highlights even more impressive. And he had a couple of back to back 40 plus games a 40. GOAT
Imagine being so good that a team you didn't even play for retires your number. 😂 🐐 💯
Idk if anyone else said this keep in mind they drained his knee his finally 1-2 years every week 2-3 times a week. The report of one time a week isn’t correct. Stories have come out his knee would sweep to size of a melon. Still played all 82 games unlike todays players who are great
Nobody was like Mike. The best.
Yeah that was Jermaine O'Neal😂😂☠️
Now go find the videos of him at 50 lol... still giving folks the business
Did u notice how fearless he was? He played with one foot but his driving skills into bunch of defender was tuff
I appreciate you saying Michael's whole name. Respect.
Bro, appreciate you giving it a chance and seeing what people really mean with this Jordan 🐐 talk. Jordans stuff was unreal... but so is Bron. I request a Lebron GOAT highlight reaction. Which ever one you think shows his best...
LeBron James in his Miami years he would get beat 30 times in row 1 vs 1 against Micheal Beasley but a 50 year old retired Micheal Jordan gave Beasley that work but no one wants to talk about that
@@WyakeeDouglas dude beasley himself said in an interview that it wasn't even true
@sportstalkonly1442 keep lying to yourself cuz everyone beats LeBron 1 vs 1 he is so overrated
Bro Lefraud ain't in this mans league, period!!! Sorry y'all missed it!!! 😮😮😮
2001-02 season he turned 39 years old in februari 2002. and he turned 40 yrs old in feb 2003, his 2nd and last season with Washington so 39 and 40 yrs old during his Wizards years...
Goat.
Aye them Sprewell highlights go crazy. Definitely worth a watch
MJ was 38 the start of his first year and 4 months into the season he turned 39. Needless to say buy the end of his second season MJ was 40yrs 5 months old.
Ask yourself a question if the dudes in the past were plumbers, teachers etc and todays athletes are in so much better condition ...why all of the load management? what your generation calls more skilled is not accurate take a look at the lack of defense being played, the wide open lanes the lack of post up moves, Adam Silver has gutted the game and turned it into a shell of what the NBA use to be. This is coming from a fan since 1989 and I do understand that Lebron is what you guys know but Jordan was the greatest I had saw as well but we as a generation understood Magic, Bird, Kareem, Oscar, Russel and many others were on that list without the disrespect of calling those guys who paved the way plumbers and shit. You young guys sit on the shoulders of generations that came before you as my generation sat on the shoulders of those who came before us. Just food for thought, keep educating yourself :)
MY GUY HAS A WHOLE RIM NAMED AFTER HIM!! YOU GOT TO KNOW WHO LATREL SPREEWELL IS!!
38-40 years old bruh. This was 3 years after he retired the second time. He retired at 35 and to help the nba with ratings he came back and played on a hurt leg. Fundamentally sound never gets old
Bruh ppl say mj was washed but on the wizards he avg 22 ppg at 40 and as we all see was giving out work with that fadeaway mid range 😂😂unstoppable like Kareem hook shot 😂😂
He literally was still getting double teamed..
AND ALWAYS WENT INSIDE FOR THAT SMOKE …
STILL COULDN’T STOP HIM 😂‼️😎‼️
Jordan just had a smoothness to his game
“I gotta practice that”
“That’s smooth asl”😂😂😂😂😂😂
2:45 that Latrell Sprewell, you remember those spinning rims on cars? It was cause of Latrell Sprewell
3:23 that’s Sharif Abdul Raheem straight bucket
JORDAN was only player EVER to score 40 at age 40. N also scored 97 pts in 2 games at age 39!!!
On top of the come back from injury in his Wizard's 1st year, he played all 82 at 39. No nights off due to load management...Bron!!!
And he donated his whole paycheck each season he played for the Washington wizards to survives of nine eleven!!!!!
I'm so impressed of your knowledge of players
Bruh look how easy the game is for him, effortless. Only Kobe & KD have made it look equally effortless with style & grace.
Very nice 👍
It's amazing to me to hear these young guys review Michael Jordan videos and talk about everything that he wasn't and then at the end say " I never saw him play ". How can you make an informed judgment about someone if you've never seen them? Or say that someone else is better than them without even researching their stats?
Can you check out the game where Michael Jordan was on the Washington wizards and score 51 points
One season he averaged 3.2 , years he averaged 2.9 And another year 2.8 he also had 7 yrs where he averaged over 30 points 37.1 being his highest he also averaged 35, 33 twice 32 ,31,&30 he had a stretch where he 10 triple doubles in 11 games the man was a beast
gotta remember this is jordan after 3 years off bad knee started with wizards at 38 and was definitely the best skilled post player
Latrell Sprewell and Shareef Abdur Rahim
My man’s out here saying all these names like he saw them at their best and knows their best, but don’t know Latrell and Sharif 😂 😜 you a rookie champ
Awesome video groovy his footwork was perfect wasn’t it
Lebron has nooooooooooooooone of this package!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never has never will!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's 40 in these clips! With a bum knee. If his knee was right, there would've been more problems. He retired the year before LeBron was drafted. There is video of LeBron and Jordan playing together on the same squad.🤯😳😳 They would've been unstoppable together.
No LEFRAUD would have screwed that up!!!
Ahmm noo jordan dont need a choker one please not that level,He wasbt chasing anymore he is already cemented as a goat .
This is the 3rd video of yours ive watched, so I figured its time to give you a sub
Bro, when i watched jordan and shaq, i learned how to have a post up game because i loved their foot work. What was crazy is that i was 18 years old then. I was 5'9, 160 and i was a legit floor general type PG, but grew into playing/defending post. I mever played school type ball, but i was an organized street baller 😂
I was 9 years old then and in live with 2k used wizards a lot lol MJ was a factor even at that age
Do remember that in 2001 scientific rehab like it is today was barely a thing. Data led rehab was barely a thing. Advanced recovery didn’t exist.
So if Mike had access to what Bron has had for a decade - Mike would have had the exact same longevity and bounce, if not more than Bron.
but he didn't. so the ifs don't matter
And if Lebron had the 2nd best player in the Nba on his team and arguably the best coach of all times for 6 years straight he would’ve won 6 rings, we can do “ifs” all day
Thank you.. I enjoyed the highlights
Jordan was 35 years old when he won his last title with the Bulls in 1998. When he played with the Wizards, he started when he was 38 and then finally retired at the end of his second season at the age of 40.
Jordan was about 38 and played with the wizards for 2 seasons in which most was greatful just to see him play again and he put up a couple of 50 point games with them too and he retired at 35 in 98
Jordan was 38-40 when he played with the wizards. His fist year back he was steadily getn better until the knee injury.
15:09 when he hugged Reggie, you can see how his hands are really big.
Michael Jordan scored 30 points or more in six games while playing for the Wizards.
Jordan played for the Wizards in 2001. Some say he was at his best during this time, dominating practices and games. Others say he averaged 20 points per game at the age of 40, even with a knee injury.
Michael Jordan played 8 games for the Wizards with 40+ points
I wanna say thank u for having an open mind and giving him his flowers. BUT AS FOR LEBRON, I don't hate him anymore since he smashed Dillon Brooks.
The fact you didn’t know a lot of these(Great) players shows just how much much farther you have to go and much much more reasearch to do!!
He was 39 & his last Wiz year he was 40 with a bad knee. He played all 82 games both years
MJ played between 38-40 for the Wizards. He was injury riddled and coming out of the Executive seat for two years and suited up for basketball. In his first season he was slowly getting back into shape and his numbers reflected that, I believe he was on pace to get really close to his 98 bulls numbers before suffering a knee injury.
You should watch Michael Jordan's underrated years as a wizard here on UA-cam by Jonny Arnett, it's a great video.
Jordan was 38 when he came back to basketball with the wizards! He was 40 when he retired for the 3rd and last time
