@Brian G The 80s - 90s is commonly referred to as the Golden Age of basketball.

Back then, defenders didn’t have to worry about the three point line, coaches didn’t like 3-pointers. That’s why you see here, there were always 3-5 players clogging the lane. The fact that MJ was averaging up to 37 points per game in this era without shooting 3’s is insane.

@@samjirbhuiyan3030 Close to what? Just look at him playing, this finals looks like preseason games. Jordan played against tough defense, he had to drive to the basket against double or triple teams, getting hit hard while adjusting 3 times in the air. Lebron drives to the basket and no one contests him like a practice game. He don't have any of Jordan's moves and don't bring that excitement, that's why this is the finals with less viewers in the history and 98 was the finals with most viewers.
Just when I thought that I had watched all of this footage ... There are in this video some of the most astonishing athletic features of human being. As simple as that.
What else do i want to say about how good jordan is ! You have said it all ! Anyway, He already has it all ability of being a basketball player. G.O.A.T.
Easily one of the best rivalries in sports history I grew up in Michigan and we were lucky to have WGN on regular cable we got to see every Bulls and every Pistons game! Johnny Red Kerr and George Blaha are the voices of the NBA to me!
No wonder MJ and pippen is a defensive powerhouse. Grinding against this badass Pistons surely did a work like a torturous training, making other teams defensive hustle seems like a breeze for them. Not to mention adding Rodman from these same Pistons who redefined and further reinforced this Bulls, sealing their second 3-peat destiny.
EvilShapeS Bruh if u want to see Rookie Jordan play today, you got prime Kobe. If you wanna see an older mike look at kawhi, he averaged similar numbers in his wizard years when he had bad knees at the age of 40.
3 роки тому+13
layup at 5:53 was special, full arm extension finger roll in traffic
I keep pausing and rewinding ... these highlights are all solid gold.... like listening to early Bob Dylan... its just far and away the best... nothing comes close...
Bill Laimbeer would average a quintuple double in today’s NBA 10 Points, 10 Rebounds, 10 Threes, 10 Flagrants, 10 Fights. Basically a god tier Brook Lopez.
I love Lebron but Jordan was another breed of basketball excellence. He didn’t just wreck havoc offensively but defensively he was a workhorse also. Jordan is still the GOAT! and this is coming from a Lebron fan.
We'll never see the likes of a Michael Jordan again! His game was just beautiful to watch made it look effortless because he always practice on his craft and perfected it like no other! Greatest to ever play sports period! Air Jordan the G.O.A.T!!
Whether you're from Chicago (as I am) or Detroit (where I have so much family, its like a second home), those playoffs were so intense, it felt like we were playing.
If we have to say the truth the pistons bullied the bulls 3 times in a raw on play off... and when i say bullied i mean phisically bullied... something that today could never happen...
At 1:32 he takes a dribble before halfcourt, once he crosses he takes 1 more dribble then dunks. To recap, he took 1 dribble after halfcourt and dunked, you can't do that in a video game.
Damn, he was sooooo quick. Honestly, I've watched a lot of his games/moves and the thing that never fails to impress me is how fast he was. From zero to 100 in the blink of an eye. How the hell do you stop someone that fast?!? I played a decent level of football (soccer) when I was younger and though I was skillful and pretty quick the one thing you can never ever stop is flat out speed of movement and speed of thought which Michael had in abundance.. Someone who shows you the ball then the next second they are gone! He really must have been frightening to play against cause he had everything.
Yes he was as quick as players under 6 feet and had the hands of a player over 7 feet then you add his body control creativity sheer determination etc. dude was just different I try explaining it to these kids lol
@@clydetheglidetop5sgtop10du7 I agree with your comment. But this may be of interest to you: Jordan's hands were in fact *larger* than 7 + footers hands. His hands were ENORMOUSLY large. NBA scouts and the combine keeps track of two hand size measurements: 1. thumb to pinky (hand stretch). 2. wrist to tip of middle finger. Ideally, scouts want #1 larger (for ball control / palming) and #2 smaller (for dribbling / shooting touch). MJ had ENORMOUS #1 measurements and (relatively) smaller #2. His hand size and shape is ideal for basketball. People reference MJ's "huge hands" but I don't think most REALLY realize how huge. Jordan's hands are **WAY** bigger than Kobe or Lebron's. His hands are noticeably bigger than Kawhi's and although Shaq's is larger (taller) than Jordan's... on the measure that you want big (#1), Jordan's hands are nearly an inch larger ie wider than Shaq's. Jordan's ENORMOUS #1 numbers enabled the one handed rebounds & catches / in-air ball control / fake-out passes and 'baseball' throws that you did not see from others in his day and will not be seeing from anyone today. They asked Phil Jackson to compare Kobe and MJ: Phil went straight to hands "well Michael had those HUGE MITTS for hands."
@@AnHebrewChild LeBron actually has pretty big hands but although Jordan's are significantly bigger, Kawhi's are right there with Jordan's I appreciate your comment thank you
Clyde the Glide #top5SG&top10dunkerever EDIT: my reply was sort of dickish because I read yours and thought yours was. I just re-read it tho, and it really wasn't. I'll leave what I wrote anyway but sorry about that. ---- I wrote down some informative and not typically discussed shit. The architecture of the hand is interesting: how the size & shape directly effect the the game is too. This is a Jordan video: discussing a BIG factor in what made his game unique is too. your response was basically, "actually Lebron has big hands. But thanks for the info..." By that, I'm reminded why I avoid befriending phlegmatic types. 😊 Also: no, Lebron does not have large hands: his hands are 'average' (+ 4%) for players in his position (9.25" wide). By comparison Kahwi Leonard's is 11.25" wide, MJ's is 11.75" wide. For all time great players (another category Lebron is in) he has 'small' hands. His hand width is smaller, for example, than 2-guard Kobe's.
As a “MJ” fan, I have to thank the Pistons and the Knicks. They helped creating the most unstoppable player in modern day NBA’s.

@@LilRick96 Because you don't understand that you are actually talking about people with mental disabilities. They can't help it. But you can. It's just annoying that on every single video there is always that one guy who is fishing for likes who says things like:
1. I can't believe people actually say Lebron is not a good passer.
2. I can't believe people say that Steph Curry is not one of the greatest shooters of all time.
3. I can't believe people say Jordan couldn't play in today's NBA.
But actually there are no sane people saying that, only people like you who are fishing for likes
All the young ones watching this like wtf this man can fly?!?
Jordan likes to dunk on Laimbeer!😂
frederik legoff now u know why Laimbeer hates him so much lol
But I like Laimbeer's toughness to challenge him everytime, no easy baskets if he can help it.
That's why he is Bitter to this day, he was Jordan's B for the longest 🤣😅
@@ETHIOPIANASSASIN
Laimbeer isn't the bitter one. That would be MJ. Laimbeer is just tired of all of the constant crying and whining from the Bulls fans and players years later. His attitude is get over it.
Laimbeer rather liked to sent him home in the post season 😂😂
this footage is so sick
MJ with the double pump HANGTIME jump shot with two Defenders. THAT'S TOUGH!!! 🐐🏀🔥
His skill level was just ridiculous. 30 years ago this should not have been possible. Black Jesus.
Jordan didn't die for our sins????
@@datkiddmixx Quote from Allen Iverson: Man….. listen. First of all, I love LeBron. I have nothing but love for LeBron. That’s the best player of his generation, one of the best ever, a great husband, great father, great role model, and it’s even beyond that: What he’s doing with that school in Akron?? It’s a beautiful thing.
But y’all.
We’re talking about Mike.
We’re talking about Mike, O.K.??
We’re talking about Black Jesus himself.
Several NBA players have called him that. AI, Reggie Miller, Larry Bird (a God), LeBron James “It look like he was Black Jesus walking towards me.”
@Brian G The 80s - 90s is commonly referred to as the Golden Age of basketball. With Jordan there was a huge spike in viewership and wold-wide recognition, followed by a significant decline after his retirement. It was also the most transcendent time period in terms of athleticism. Of course it was special.
@@absofnlootly7094 How about the cavs and warriors dynasty.

Wait...he didn't go to another team to beat the Pistons? They just got...better? Huh? 🙃
🤣 cold
Bronsexuals in shambles
You mean one of the pistons joined him in Chicago? What's his name? Oh yeah...Dennis Rodman.
@@aaronwright1621 you can literally see Rodman playing for the Pistons here r u blind?
Aaron Wright Dennis Rodman John Salley and James Edwards joined the Bulls for their second three peat
If Jordan played in today's NBA he would most likely feast on his defenders against any team. He is quick and crisp.
Seeing some of those plays for the FIRST time as they happened was just... man, it was just unreal. Even the 180 flip up over Laimbeer there was a knee jerk reaction from the Pistons bench as in "OMG did you see that?" I wish he played for 50 years straight at peak athletic ability because watching him play was a GIFT to mankind.
11:00 They fouled him, block his shot against the backboard and he still dunked it?
Or am I seeing things.
Slow down the playback speed.
Oh sh*t.... nice catch. Id seen that dunk a few times but never noticed that.
I saw that too, crazy.
Mj's shake 'n bake were so good it came with fries and chips🍟🥨
incredible he was on another level. just so dynamic.
This is one of the best MJ videos. Mainly because the Pistons made him work so hard. He's having to use every trick in the book.
Every time I watched these highlights and I've seen them so many times, I still shake my head.
The pistons crowd were even cheering for Jordan proves he's the goat
Can I have subscribers for no reason? Or Jordan has the most fans. Both are possible
Just like the rockets to Lebron huh ?
Ridgefield-Wilton CBS Leadership subscribe me pal
SportsClipParody nice videos
@@jimmyj1760 It doesn't matter dude, just compare Jordan Rookie stats with LeBron Rookie stats and don't forget the rings, end of the conversation, bye bye.
Jordan is somewhere between ballet and samurai and brake dancing and long jumping.....a few plays into this video and its just stunning to see his grace and charisma and brute force .... and all in your face
Back then, defenders didn’t have to worry about the three point line, coaches didn’t like 3-pointers. That’s why you see here, there were always 3-5 players clogging the lane. The fact that MJ was averaging up to 37 points per game in this era without shooting 3’s is insane.
Giannas be getting that like every other day lol
@@Alphy250 Getting what? 1987 Bulls had 3.6 3-point attempts vs 2019 Bucks’ 38.2 3-pointers. Bucks attempted almost 11x more 3’s than the Bulls. You’re delusional bruh. 🤣🤣
Wasall about MJ averaging 37 pts without 3’s back then like nobody else has done it anyways MJ never played only 6yrs that he won chips with the bulls some of the years he was trash lol
@@Alphy250 “Some of the years he was trash”
Which years? The Wizards years? Of course he was trash there, he came back from retirement at age 38. You expect him to be as good as he was?? 🤣🤣
@@Alphy250So you think Giannis is better than MJ?
So much grace in his moves...can't see anything like it today.
He does anything he wants to. The GOAT
"Best that ever was, best that ever will be" seems appropriate.
Will be I dunno
@@frostyrl762 That's one thing that cannot be certain they do keep on comin records are made to be broken but as far as we all can see in regards to MJ's greatness it seems like that is generations from now nowhere anytime soon
Jordan game was so polished, he was amazing to watch.
Jordan is better than lbj no more words..
Honestly there's no contest...Lebron's never been close to this level, not a chance.
@@Marlowe10100 Lebrons getting close tho
@@samjirbhuiyan3030 Close to what? Just look at him playing, this finals looks like preseason games. Jordan played against tough defense, he had to drive to the basket against double or triple teams, getting hit hard while adjusting 3 times in the air.
Lebron drives to the basket and no one contests him like a practice game. He don't have any of Jordan's moves and don't bring that excitement, that's why this is the finals with less viewers in the history and 98 was the finals with most viewers.
@@Marlowe10100 im watching him not get touched going to the rim lol. LeBron would average 50 point triple double
@@smoothoperator1862 Nah, Lebron is trash and boring in comparison to MJ.
Just when I thought that I had watched all of this footage ... There are in this video some of the most astonishing athletic features of human being. As simple as that.
What else do i want to say about how good jordan is ! You have said it all ! Anyway, He already has it all ability of being a basketball player. G.O.A.T.
Easily one of the best rivalries in sports history
I grew up in Michigan and we were lucky to have WGN on regular cable we got to see every Bulls and every Pistons game! Johnny Red Kerr and George Blaha are the voices of the NBA to me!
Same here. Was tough being a Bulls fan in the Bad Boy town.
Michael Jordan is getting *serious* hype now since these last few days.
YWowua-cam.com/video/iSDasOegDy0/v-deo.html
Hes the goat baaaaaaaa 🐐🐐🐐
Steven Rupp true
Hype really, you have no idea what you are talking about.
George Mills Sure.
No wonder MJ and pippen is a defensive powerhouse. Grinding against this badass Pistons surely did a work like a torturous training, making other teams defensive hustle seems like a breeze for them.
Not to mention adding Rodman from these same Pistons who redefined and further reinforced this Bulls, sealing their second 3-peat destiny.
There will never be like him..
You did an excellent job putting this footage together.
There will never be another Michael Jordan.
The last dance is amazing
Young Mike would avg 45 pts in today’s nba and winning DPY
60
Hell no
65+ at average
15- his style of play is outdated he wouldn't be able to survive and also his a sub par 3 point shooter and the nba's defense is much harder today
EvilShapeS Bruh if u want to see Rookie Jordan play today, you got prime Kobe. If you wanna see an older mike look at kawhi, he averaged similar numbers in his wizard years when he had bad knees at the age of 40.
layup at 5:53 was special, full arm extension finger roll in traffic
I keep pausing and rewinding ... these highlights are all solid gold.... like listening to early Bob Dylan... its just far and away the best... nothing comes close...
Great video!!! What a legend!!
Bill Laimbeer would average a quintuple double in today’s NBA
10 Points, 10 Rebounds, 10 Threes, 10 Flagrants, 10 Fights.
Basically a god tier Brook Lopez.
more like robin lopez
Guaranteed he would get kicked out of the league for excessive physical play unless he dialed it back.
Man I keep telling people there’s NO OTHER LIKE MY BOY...been arguing about this dude since 89
This video really shows the ferocity that MJ played with. He was unstoppable back then. He would be unstoppable today.
I love Lebron but Jordan was another breed of basketball excellence. He didn’t just wreck havoc offensively but defensively he was a workhorse also. Jordan is still the GOAT! and this is coming from a Lebron fan.
Jodi Wheeler 💯
He would be unstoppable in any basketball game, in any league, in any era, against any competition.
Damn Detroit would’ve never won without the Jordan rules. Needed the whole team to stop him
No doubt. Isn't that crazy?

We'll never see the likes of a Michael Jordan again! His game was just beautiful to watch made it look effortless because he always practice on his craft and perfected it like no other! Greatest to ever play sports period! Air Jordan the G.O.A.T!!
Whether you're from Chicago (as I am) or Detroit (where I have so much family, its like a second home), those playoffs were so intense, it felt like we were playing.
NBA upload this AFTER some comments from Isiah Thomas. Now we know why he really hates THE GOAT !!! MJ bullied HIM AND HIS TEAM Everytime They Played.
If we have to say the truth the pistons bullied the bulls 3 times in a raw on play off... and when i say bullied i mean phisically bullied... something that today could never happen...
At 1:32 he takes a dribble before halfcourt, once he crosses he takes 1 more dribble then dunks. To recap, he took 1 dribble after halfcourt and dunked, you can't do that in a video game.
One man changed the game! Mj!
Just beautifully incredible!!!! WOW !!! Speechless !!
Look at those hang-time moves!! Absolutely the best!
That play segment from 2:49 - 2:54 is super amazing...All Hail His Airness!
6:54 goddamit Jordan was the whole team
Damn you're right 🥺😳😲
NBA 2k20 myplayer
MJ was a legend!!
Damn, he was sooooo quick. Honestly, I've watched a lot of his games/moves and the thing that never fails to impress me is how fast he was. From zero to 100 in the blink of an eye. How the hell do you stop someone that fast?!? I played a decent level of football (soccer) when I was younger and though I was skillful and pretty quick the one thing you can never ever stop is flat out speed of movement and speed of thought which Michael had in abundance.. Someone who shows you the ball then the next second they are gone! He really must have been frightening to play against cause he had everything.
Yes he was as quick as players under 6 feet and had the hands of a player over 7 feet then you add his body control creativity sheer determination etc. dude was just different I try explaining it to these kids lol
@@clydetheglidetop5sgtop10du7 I agree with your comment. But this may be of interest to you: Jordan's hands were in fact *larger* than 7 + footers hands. His hands were ENORMOUSLY large. NBA scouts and the combine keeps track of two hand size measurements:
1. thumb to pinky (hand stretch).
2. wrist to tip of middle finger.
Ideally, scouts want #1 larger (for ball control / palming) and #2 smaller (for dribbling / shooting touch).
MJ had ENORMOUS #1 measurements and (relatively) smaller #2. His hand size and shape is ideal for basketball.
People reference MJ's "huge hands" but I don't think most REALLY realize how huge. Jordan's hands are **WAY** bigger than Kobe or Lebron's. His hands are noticeably bigger than Kawhi's and although Shaq's is larger (taller) than Jordan's... on the measure that you want big (#1), Jordan's hands are nearly an inch larger ie wider than Shaq's.
Jordan's ENORMOUS #1 numbers enabled the one handed rebounds & catches / in-air ball control / fake-out passes and 'baseball' throws that you did not see from others in his day and will not be seeing from anyone today. They asked Phil Jackson to compare Kobe and MJ: Phil went straight to hands "well Michael had those HUGE MITTS for hands."
@@AnHebrewChild LeBron actually has pretty big hands but although Jordan's are significantly bigger, Kawhi's are right there with Jordan's I appreciate your comment thank you

EDIT: my reply was sort of dickish because I read yours and thought yours was. I just re-read it tho, and it really wasn't. I'll leave what I wrote anyway but sorry about that.
----
I wrote down some informative and not typically discussed shit. The architecture of the hand is interesting: how the size & shape directly effect the the game is too. This is a Jordan video: discussing a BIG factor in what made his game unique is too.
your response was basically, "actually Lebron has big hands. But thanks for the info..."
By that, I'm reminded why I avoid befriending phlegmatic types. 😊
Also: no, Lebron does not have large hands: his hands are 'average' (+ 4%) for players in his position (9.25" wide). By comparison Kahwi Leonard's is 11.25" wide, MJ's is 11.75" wide.
For all time great players (another category Lebron is in) he has 'small' hands. His hand width is smaller, for example, than 2-guard Kobe's.
@@AnHebrewChild very interesting "LeBron's hand width is smaller than Kobe's" never knew that
His foot work was so incredible
