The Psychopathic Mindset of Michael Jordan

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 พ.ค. 2017
  • Narrated by I.P. Freely. A peek into how Michael Jordan established himself as the best basketball player ever by willing himself in many ways in order to perform at the highest level on and off the court. And please remember, Jordan is the greatest basketball player ever, and probably always will be.
    *A few minutes has been edited out of the video (the Olympic footage involving Toni Kukoc) for copyright reasons, but at least a lot of that got covered in the recent documentary 'The Last Dance'. Somehow the end of the interview with Doug Collins got trimmed unintentionally, and I'll try to fix that soon if possible. This was originally uploaded in 2017 and edited by yours truly in order to showcase what it took to get to the otherwise obtainable level Michael was able to get to.

    Because of copyright issues the video had to be trimmed down from its original 23:23 length, but somehow within the collateral damage of it all half of the of the Doug Collins interview got cut off, but there should be a link to click on toward the very end of the video if you want to watch that interview. Sorry for any inconvenience, but at least it got watched in its entirety for well over 3 years with well over 3 million views, so I can't complain too much.

    He played with a controlled anger! He was able to channel his competitive energy like no one I’ve ever seen. He could literally will things to happen in critical situations. Whenever his team needed something to happen he would always find a way. The only other athlete that came close to being able to do this was Lawrence Taylor.

      Mathematical Mayhem
      There are 23 letters in the Latin alphabet
      W = 23rd letter of the alphabet
      It's symbol is 2 points down, 3 up.
      W, the only letter in the English language to be renounced polysyllabically, is 23rd in line. Note also that it is a double(2)-u and that t has three(3) syllables.
      WWW = 23+23+23 = 69
      69/3 = 23 -> 6+9+3 = 18 = 23-5 (2+3=5)
      2 / 3 = .666
      23 is the first prime number in which both digits are prime numbers and add up to another prime number.
      Two (2), three (3), and five(5) are the first three prime numbers in our counting system. (1 is not prime, it's an identity).
      Square root(s) of 2,3, and 5 are used in respect to tetrahedral hyperdimensional physics and perfect form in design. Square root(s)of 2, 3, and 5 supposedly relative to D&M Pyramid on Mars and other similar relationships. Also these square roots were quite common in early architecture and considered the most aesthetically pleasing in design.
      23 written in base 3 is 212 (2+1+2=5)
      23 written in base 4 is 113 (1+1+3=5)
      23 written in base 7 is 32 (3+2=5)
      23 Axioms in Euclid's Geometry.
      Pentagram: the angle between the rays of a symmetrical-pointed star is 72 degrees. Also, the angle between legs of a pentagon is 108 degrees (the complementary angle of 108 is 72(108+72=180)). (2^3)*(3^2)=2*3*2*3*2=72. (Note that 5 (2^2)*(3^3)=3*2*3*2*3=58. Numbers are 2*3*2*3*5=180 multiplied in each equation.)
      Two-thirds of numbers which are divisible by 2 are not multiples of 3.
      In the Qabalistic Tree of Life, the 23rd path is associated with the Hanged Man Tarot Card. Aleister Crowley also states that this card represents the concept that the only way OUT is WITHIN!

      He did this game after game. I’ve seen LeBron get this way a handful of times. In Boston when facing elimination. In Toronto when he was hitting all those fade-aways in a row. And game 1 against the Warriors before they got swept by them. I think LeBron has to remind himself “this is how MJ played” and with MJ and Kobe it was just natural.

One guy scored one lucky basket on a fade-away prayer. He’s insane. Another kid did a carry move and acted like he was going to shoot a j but went past MJ for a layup MJ caught him blocked it from behind and knocked the kid to the floor then stood over him and told him he traveled lmao it was one of the most amazing moments in my life I’ll never forget and mind you that these were top rated HS players most of which went on to play D1.

    People will criticize Jordan for being so brutal and 'cold' etc. but what they don't understand is that to get to the top of your profession, you have to have a ruthless mentality. You have to out-work your competition and let them know about it. Many people think it's "not nice" but that's because they confuse the so-called 'social contract' -- which is the set of morals and behaviors we use to stay together as a society -- with being the best at what you do. The social contract is in place to help people behave and form communities that can last. This has its place, but the people that get to the top of the heap know how to selectively use the social contract and know when not to use it. Jordan learned to use the social contract to be a teammate, but he knew to leave it aside when he wanted to display his individual greatness, which usually helped his team win anyway.

Also in the middle of watching Armstrong's 'water of life' on youtube, then was planning on checking out 'aquarius the water bearer'. I'm highly interested but to be honest I got off on the wrong track with alcohol and my fasting went to shit with a horrible diet. I'm wondering how much id have to fast in order to detox and cleanse myself before I attempted a small urine fast. Any info would be really appreciated, and is it too late to take you up on the long sleeve shirt? I like free stuff :)

      Yeah just send me a message with your mailing address and I'll send it out to you soon since I have to send another one out as well to someone else. The foot soaks are great, I've done it dozens of times and it keeps me ready to run when I shouldn't be able to. I was an alcoholic too off and on and ate what I wanted for the most part for a while before giving up meat about 6 years ago, but if you start fasting gradually and slowly it shouldn't be too difficult to get thru, and there's no rules, you can play it by ear and stop anytime you want. Skipping breakfast has it's advantages even, it doesn't have to be too invasive on you to get some decent results. Martha Christie's book 'Your Own Perfect Medicine' is the best one get a lot of info quickly, and it will be hard not to try it after reading, though the topical treatments are great in themselves and very effective as the skin and blood absorb a lot of urine.

    What I remember about Jordan was how much I hated him as a Laker fan after he schooled us in '91. I wanted him to lose every year and it never happened. Then when he retired from the Bulls, I was waiting for another Jordan to come around and it never did. Kobe or lebron don't really come close. Shaq comes the closest when it comes to dominating a game, but it doesn't compare to a dominant small man. People who haven't seen Jordan play live will never understand this. The best way to describe it is that highlights were pretty close to watching him live.

      @@Petrillo17 dude you dont understand. Jordan was just as good as kobe, LeBron or whoever else you like, but he could turn it on or off whenever he wanted when he was on the bulls. He was so clutch that the team losing by 1 was more worried then his team. Thats the difference. How many great nba players did he stop from winning a championship? Almost every 90s great and it probably wouldve every 90s great if he didnt retire and the team stayed together. He won 2 threepeats with 2 completely different teams. He took the title from the showtime lakers, birds celtics and the bad boy pistons. I remember watching the bulls and theyd be down by 20 in the beginning of the fourth and know they were going to win. The bulls never went to a game 7 in the playoffs. This was when the NBA was actually basketball with physical defense and post ups.

Still though, Michael averaged 43.7 and 35.7 PPG during both the series, which is god like standards, and also scored 63 points against this amazing team, in the Boston Garden, which was known as one of the most ruthless stadiums in sports, and that 63 points has been a standing playoff record for 34 years now, and after that game Bird called MJ “god in the form of Michael Jordan”. Larry was an amazing player but he never owned Jordan, TBH, no one ever owned Jordan.

      If you want to understand why he is the goat watch my video explaining the equation Michael+Jordan = 3 6 9
      th-cam.com/video/SqMDVQzkRlQ/w-d-xo.html
      Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete EVER! No wonder his life seems to operate based on the patterns of 3s.
      All of his numbers are in 3s they are all divisible by the number 3, if the number added up equals 3 6 or 9 then the number is divisible by 3. all his numbers seem to add up to 3 6 or 9. this video explains why.
      3 6 and 9 are the numbers that are coded in Michael Jordans Greatness.
      He is 6 foot 6 with 6 championships.
      On the 6th game of his 6th championship he hits the greatest game winning shot in NBA finals history and his everlasting image is captured with 6.6 seconds left!
      Jordan entered the league 3 times and exited the league 3 times.
      His numbers are 23 and 45
      2/3=.666666....
      2*3=6,
      4+5=9
      His olympic number is 9.
      At age 30 he won 3 in a row and retired
      At age 33 starts his 2nd 3peat
      Retires from bulls at age 36 with 6 championships
      out of. 15 year career, 6 years he won and 9 years he lost
      Even his baseball numbers are divisible by the number 3
      Theres much much more....
      Nikola Tesla said "If you only knew the magnificence of the numbers 3 6 and 9, you would have a key to the universe." I believe Michael Jordan discovered that key, or somebody or something else discovered it for him.

    This is the one thing no one ever talks about when they try to ask "who would win between Jordan and LeBron?". Or if they do, they don't put enough weight on it. LeBron is indeed a great player, and he's certainly more talented physically. But Michael beat the careers off of guys who were more physically gifted his whole career. Just based on his will to destroy them. If they were to play each other one-on-one both in their prime, Jordan wins 4 out of 5 games. LeBron would win the first and then Jordan would be pissed about it and drive LeBron into the ground to prove a point.

    What a lot of people don't understand is his mindset..it's almost psychotic how he channels and focuses along with an arsenal that was limitless. The media kept hyping all these "next Michael Jordans"..Grant, Kobe, Penny, Minor, Stackhouse and he killed them all. Todays NBA player lacks that competitive edge!! Everybody wants to jump ship to another team to join the competition. Jordan wanted to beat the competition and shut up all the naysayers..like Jerry Krause!! He didn't care about stats..if he scored 60 points with 3 assists and they won that's all that matteted!!! Who thinks like that!! He was in a class by himself!!

      Well said. Too many people harp on me for using the word 'psychopathic', though it's in no way an insult in the slightest bit, and I absolutely love it when I rarely harness that sort of motivation and will myself however I have to in order to accomplish something. He's a great example for those who have never crossed over to this mindset of how the best sometimes have to get things done or get to that next level that's tough to reach.

      EVERYBODY MUST KNOW THIS INFORMATION ABOUT JORDAN ITS BEEN LONG ENOUGH!!!
      If you want to understand why he is the goat watch my video explaining the equation Michael+Jordan = 3 6 9
      th-cam.com/video/SqMDVQzkRlQ/w-d-xo.html
      Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete EVER! No wonder his life seems to operate based on the patterns of 3s.
      All of his numbers are in 3s they are all divisible by the number 3, if the number added up equals 3 6 or 9 then the number is divisible by 3. all his numbers seem to add up to 3 6 or 9. this video explains why.
      3 6 and 9 are the numbers that are coded in Michael Jordans Greatness.
      He is 6 foot 6 with 6 championships.
      On the 6th game of his 6th championship he hits the greatest game winning shot in NBA finals history and his everlasting image is captured with 6.6 seconds left!
      Jordan entered the league 3 times and exited the league 3 times.
      His numbers are 23 and 45
      2/3=.666666....
      2*3=6,
      4+5=9
      His olympic number is 9.
      At age 30 he won 3 in a row and retired
      At age 33 starts his 2nd 3peat
      Retires from bulls at age 36 with 6 championships
      out of. 15 year career, 6 years he won and 9 years he lost
      Even his baseball numbers are divisible by the number 3
      Theres much much more....
      Nikola Tesla said "If you only knew the magnificence of the numbers 3 6 and 9, you would have a key to the universe." I believe Michael Jordan discovered that key, or somebody or something else discovered it for him.

BUT & this is a huge BUT, I have to call it like it is, MJ was a much better basketball player than LJ! Doesn't even come close. And again, I can't stand MJ. I'm a much bigger fan of LJ over all. MJ played against much better players than LJ in a much tougher game. LJ doesn't take over games the way MJ did & he doesn't have the same skill set as MJ. It's just the facts & truth.

      All the older people say they have that feeling about Jordan though, and I got to respect that. If it wasn’t for Messi, I honestly would probably have just written y’all off as old heads who like to hate on this generation (I still do this for some of y’all boomers though lmao).

He's a man possessed. More than likely by the only known basketball demon to ever exist.

He believed in his team, made mediocre players turn into great players by teaching them how to play the game his way. It didn't matter who he was playing, the opponent was always the underdog no matter who it was. The only player to get cheers from the opposing crowd every time he scored. The GOAT period.

    Besides following most of MJ's career and the Bulls games during the late 80s -1998 and of course his Wizard days. I have one very very special memory I will never forget .
    Top 4 Live games I have witness when I was a teenager and in my early/mid 20s that I like to share my story with all of you. I grew up in Vancouver, BC CANADA
    Kobe & Shaq - LA in Seattle (drove there with few friends)
    Lebron, Wade & Bosh - Miami BIG 3 in Washington (stayed in Washington DC with my cousins for half a year and went to the game myself and purchased a ticket at the booth $95 USD)
    JORDAN & PIPPEN - Chicago in Vancouver (1995 & 1997)
    1997-98 season
    second time I sat lower section about 18-20 rows behind the hoop. My friend's brother sold me his ticket for double the price that it was worth back at that time. I bought it without thinking. Went alone. Wore the entire red Bulls warm up track suit and brought my ball. Good game.
    1995-96 season FIRST TIME in my life witnessing JORDAN, PIPPEN, RODMAN and DA BULLS.
    Went to stadium really early. Had nose bleed ticket but met up with my high-school coach before the game and he had season tickets to NBA & NHL games. He was more of a hockey fan. He took off his season pass tag and placed it over my head and neck.Then said, "I know how much this means to you and it might even be once in a lifetime opportunity for you to see your loved idol." I wanted to breakdown and still can't thank him enough for doing that. I am 41 years old now and my coach and I still keep in touch.
    His ticket was about SIX ROWS BEHIND THE HOOP. As the Bulls came jogging out of the tunnel I stood up like many did and I felt this crazy energy, heat and I was shaking. Had goose bumps. I just can't explain the once in a lifetime feeling. Saw Jordan coming out from the tunnel. I never sat down during their warm up. Saw his doing his routine, four bounce, spin the ball foul shots, grip the ball one hand layups and of course his fadeaways!! Long story short a Grizzle player said some crap to Jordan and MJ turned it up and made 19pts in last few minutes of the game with an up and under layup, jumper, fadeaway, 2 steals led to 2 dunks etc. Bulls won. What a game!! WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!! Thanks Coach!!
    side note: The GOAT MJ brought Nike back to life (basketball sneaker sales) from the shadow or Converse and Adidas (DJ & Magic era). When Nike became Nike Air/Flight then became AIR JORDAN then sky was the limit.

    3. Best competitor ever in the sports world.
    4. The most artistic and graceful player of any sport.
    5. Best finisher at the rim.
    6.He had the most effective basketball moves ever by a wide margin.
    7.Most feared opponent ever in team sport.
    8. very good passer and rebounder.
    9.Best clutch shooter ever.
    10. Most entertaining basketball player and professional sport perform to watch.
    11. Michael Jordan is in rarefied air class all by himself.
    12. He was the one and only global basketball superstar where scream fans around the world lined up to have him signed their autographs.

      Milan Radovich​​​ that's true. Michael is so much quicker than Lebron even though they are both fast. Lebrons plays basketball like how Hershel Walker played football. They both need to build up steam before you see their speed, while Michael Jordan would make a quick dart like a push button horse.

    Mike would laugh anyone of the current players in the NBA off the court. Bird too, for that matter. Different breed. They aren't on their level...

      Nate Comfort dribbled with his head down??? He was amazing, and would destroy this league today.

      Nate Comfort - bird would kill today's league. Today's game has red carpets to the hoop and no physical resistance. Today's stars play in such an easier league - not only the conditions on the floor but the lack of parity and competition in the NBA now. But it's not even about that. It's the mental game.
