    The game of Basketball has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I grew up as a kid watching my dad's recorded VHS tapes of playoff games through the 70s and 80s, and collected all the Basketball cards. Something about the game and what it represents just hooked me from a very young age.
    My love for the game only continues to grow as time goes on. I love studying and analyzing the game, with an unbiased perspective. Feel free to subscribe, follow me on social media, and celebrate this amazing game and it's rich history with me!
    I post videos every week on NBA history, predictions, hypothetical scenarios and current NBA topics.

      @northaldine5116 his early years when he finally made it to the NBA, and his first 3-peat when his team wasn't as stacked as it was during his second 3-peat. Right before they got Phil Jackson to coach the team, there was a fun span when Jordan played point guard for their team, putting up Westbrook type box scores with 30 point triple doubles. During that late-season stretch in 1989, Jordan played 24 games as the Chicago starting point guard. He averaged 30.4 points, 9.2 rebounds, 10.7 assists, and 2.5 steals per game while shooting . 498 from the floor. During this span of his career he was the Goat. His points, and points generated off assists, when taking into account his field goal attempts were at an absolute legendary level that (still lower than Jokic's though for comparison) (total points generated) divided by (field goal attempts plus turn overs) - players that score a lot, get a lot of assists, while shooting a low amount of FGA, and having a low amount of turnovers dominate this.

      What it was like to go to a pro sports game in the 80s or prior, and what it's like now, are two entirely different things, catering to two entirely different sets of fans that have almost nothing to do with each other.

    35 points on the first half while not playing for 6 minutes, and hitting 6 threes, that's incredible. There is a guy today that if he drained 6 threes and put 30 on the table by the first half, would be considered by his fans as a shooter just as good as Steph Curry, and the undisputed goat, Jordan did it out of pettiness.

That's at least 11 seasons where he realistically averages 33. I think in todays game the way it is played he very well could of averaged 36. Not because I think he's god.

      1 KD is the greatest scorer he scores efficiently at all Levels MJ couldn’t shoot 3s
      Saying he shot 34% from 3 & would be fine is laughable when he only had ~3 3pt attempts a season when the volume of 3s go up EVERYONE % falls
      MJ was taking 22+ shots and 8+ FTs a game
      If bird was getting that many FTs he would’ve be dropping 34 plus too

      and guess who was guarding Jordan some slow non athletic white boy he can just run by or a undersized guard he can post up
      Now you have teammates that can’t shoot you getting double , and trapped by a Zone when Jordan avg 37ppg only 2 players shot over 35% & none of them shot over 2 3s a game

      @SkyRiseDon 1. Jordan has 10 scoring titles, 6 championships, 5 mvps, highest scoring season other than Wilt, highest career PPG ever. KD does have better 3pt shooting than Jordan, but does that matter? Jordan was scoring the most, and scoring the largest percentage of his teams points while doing it. Bird didn't get more free throws because he didn't drive to the hoop as much as Jordan, that's where Jordan fouls came from. He was the greatest slasher of all time as well as one of the greatest low post and mid range shooters of all time as well. Larry Bird shot more face up jumpers from the triple threat position than anything and got fouled less because of it. Jordan and Bird both played in the same era and Bird didn't outscore Jordan so I don't know what you mean here.
      2. All you need to do is watch video footage to see that the paint was never empty during Jordans career, so this whole nonsense about Jordan faced weak interior defense and weak help defense because of the illegal defense rules is just that, nonsense. The illegal defense rule was hard to enforce and lots of teams, especially the best defensive teams hedged lots of plays and there was no defensive 3 second rule at the time so big could camp in the lane as long as they were actively "guarding" someone. Most drives to the paint jordan faced 2 or 3 defenders at a time. Lack of 3pt shooting also meant that most defenders were within range to help very quickly.
      The game is much more open nowadays because so many players are threats from 3pt range, so the zone is useless when you have to tightly defend 3-4 even 5 players at the 3pt line. Alot of players can shoot from 30+ feet now.
      Saying Jordan got defended by slow white guys or undersized guards is a terrible point, just say you're racist. Must be pretty mad that two uathletic white guys are tearing up the nba right now.

    I was born in Chicago in 1990, so while I wasn’t really conscious enough to remember the first three championships, I certainly remember the second. Being in Chicago during that time, the atmosphere was just insane. Everyone in school had Bulls or Jordan themed clothes, I used to have a book about him as a kid. I remember watching the playoffs, the finals. Everyone wondered what he would do that night, what kind of crazy move he would pull off. The entire city would literally come to a standstill.
    I think we can sometimes attribute this to the technology of the time too. There wasn’t much internet, no social media, rudimentary cell phones with no texting. So if you wanted something to watch, Jordan was the answer.
    All I know is I hit the jackpot. The greatest of all time played for my team, in my city, during my childhood. It was something truly special.

      Everyone mentions scoring increases a bit when hand checking is removed around 04-05, and when players shoot threes more often in the last decade or so.

      @davidmartinez52420 9 місяців тому

      @@fortynights1513 In the 80s some teams liked to run fast breaks and the pace was similar to the last 10 or so years. Up until the mid 2000s the game was usually focused on the big man. If you look at all the great centers throughout history, many of them played before that time. It was around then when some rule changes the league put in place to increase scoring that the traditional center started to get phased out in favor of perimeter players. Historically the formula for winning championships involved having a dominant big man ideally paired with an elite wing but the big man being more important. It was incredibly rare for a team to win a title without a dominant big or at the very least a front court committee(like the Bad Boy Pistons), and any team that did win one without that didn't sustain the success. The Bulls winning as much as they did and the way they did was unheard of at the time, and that gets lost on younger fans that don't really have a strong grasp on NBA history. Nowadays it's normal for teams to win built around perimeter players, and a lot of fans look at the past through the modern lens they look at the game today and that's just wrong. Even after Jordan retired, the game reverted back to needing that elite big with San Antonio and LA Lakers winning most of the titles built around one.

    Another thing people overlook is; Even during 90s MJ had the most free throw attempt and success numbers. And the thing is back then it was harder to get a faul call compare to Today.
    I mean during late 80s and early 90s Jordan was still a pristien shooter but back then he was more of a inside scorer. He was a diver to the hoop. And during those years he was getting 9 to 10 Free Throw attempt per game. And even during late 90s (when he turn to a more post shooter) he was attempting 7 to 9 FT per game.
    For example, even a outside shooter like Devin Booker attempts 7, Tatum attemps almost 8,5 per game, Harden attempts (even old Harden) attempts near 9 per game. Doncic shots 10 FT per game and Giannis 12 per game.
    If you put a predator and slasher like Prime MJ into this Era I can almost guarantee that almost 15 FT attempt per game for MJ. And due to his %84 average that means he can get at least 10 to 12 points per game just from his Free Throws. And Prime Jordan at his best 3pt shooting seasons were shooting 3 , 3pt shots per game with %37. Now triples that at least. He'll shoot 8 or 9 3pts in today's game. And with %37 that means at least 8 to 10 points per game from 3pts.
    So just with FT and 3pt he got 18 to 22 points per game. And Prime MJ was attempting 21-23 2pt shots per game with %54 FG.
    Since there is no camping big men and no handcheck that number can rise up to even 27-28 at least. And his percentage can rise up to %58 from %54 at least. But just for being realistic and humble lets say he is gonna attempt 25 2pt shots per game with %55 FG (cuz 28 shots with %58 cause 32 ppg and that could cause heartattack for Jordan haters or LBJ wankers)
    And that means he'll get 27,5 points per game from 2pt attempts.
    So at bare minimum at least 25 points from 2 point shots + at least 8 points from 3pt shots + at least 10 points from Free Throws.
    Even with the minimum / nerfed numbers he is easily getting 43 points per game with %56+ 2pt with %37-38 3pt and %84-85 FT with over %53 FG at least.
    So in today's NBA prime MJ "at least" 43 ppg 9rpg 9 apg 3 spg 1 bpg %53+ FG kinda guy ... Deal with it.

      Thus the reason why the celtics of the 56-69 was considered the best team and why bill russell should be in consideration as the GOAT.

      no zone defense is why he retired early... why he went from 36ppg to 20ppg... and the 94-95 bulls would of made it to the finals without him without that bad play call in the semis.

    If MJ played in this era, he’d average infinite points per game. The only force that could stop him from scoring is the game clock. Simply the greatest player of all time.

      so stupid.
      He would not get 28 shots
      He would not get 12 FT per game
      He was also not a special 3 PT shooter so would not be making 4-5pg like Harden or Curry
      He would not be able to drive on or get his own way against todays athletic guards and SF.

    This is why raw stats of all time greats shouldn't be compared straight up... There are so many nuances in different eras that affect their stats. This is why winning should be the ultimate measurement, along with impact evaluation, because their stats will be close regardless... By just looking at stats, Wilt should be the ultimate GOAT...

      In my opinion the overall team results (championships and how far you go in the playoffs with their contexts) are worth considering, and while I agree that comparing stats straight up can be very flawed, I would argue that statistical performance is worth acknowledging too.
      Would it be fair to compare how well everyone compared to their peers to one another?
      Ex: Players who average 30 points per game today might not compare quite as well to those who average 30 per game 15-20 years ago because scoring averages were higher in the later year, but those who averaged say 15 rebounds per game today would compare better to someone who put up that many in the 70’s or earlier because there are fewer missed shots, and thus fewer opportunities to get a rebound.

    I'm only 35min in, and I already have to commend you. I've only recently discovered your channel, and in just three days, you've blown me away with your basketball insight. I'm a HUGE lifelong Jordan worshiper - I freely admit it. Nonetheless, you've convinced me that they wouldn't have won eight straight championships if MJ hadn't retired that first time. I never thought I'd say that, but you indeed convinced me.
    I'm a writer, and have been working casually on a side project for awhile, which could really use the partnership of someone with your keen mind on the history, current trends, and general human interest angle regarding the game. Given the holiday season, I won't bother you with more than that for now, but if you don't mind, I'm hoping to reach out to you privately in the new year.
    Thank you for this channel and all your hard work on these fantastic videos!
