Original Link • Why Michael Jordan is ...
Young man, I'm almost 40. Let me tell you, MJ lead the league in scoring and was defensive player of the year in the same season! He was a killer on defense and offense. He couldn't be stopped
Damn straight!
None of that ,"Saving your energy for defense" crap. MJ was always giving it his all, both in Defense and Offense!
AT THE SAME DAMN TIME...tell 'em...
Jordan was a killer and trained his protégé KB to take it a step further. Lebron is talented but hes not the goat. I have been watching the NBA when Jabbar was in Milwaukee and Dr.J was with the Nets out of Jersey.
I'm 55 and watched this machine if you will, like a Cyborg! He wasn't human! Kobe tried to steal all MJs moves but only was able to do some. James just choked agdin I hear? Lol. I don't watch NBA anymore since Tim & Manu retired, those Spurs were the last of the old greats. I was fortunate to witness a few GOATS in my life, MJ, Tom Brady, Bruce Lee, Buddy Rich, ya you miss it kid, but there's TH-cam to witness proof as you seen only SOME of MJs greatness. Brady has a couple year's left, he's the last GOAT for many years to come
This isn't mine... but it's true..
"LeBron's game is respected. MJ's game was feared"..Doesn't get more honest than that.
Whoooo that's a good one I like that 👌
This is mine " Mj made them fear him. LeBron made them fear his whole team." It's a team sport so yea id take LeBron over mj
@@TheSaadimoe you're absolutely right...
LeBron shouldn't even be in the goat conversation based on your take. He quits on his team a lot.. Thanks for reminding everyone.
Pretty sure they only respected lebron, not fear his whole team. If we're talking fearing the "whole team", that goes to Jason Kidd and the Nets. If you weren't alive to see them at that time, then you should sit your ass down.
"Feared" by WHO, exactly? He had FOUR Hall of Famers on his team in an expansion era. When there was real competition, he never made it out the first round.
These Jordan clips and reactions were lit . This generation just doesn’t get that Michael Jordan was built different nobody will ever compare to him or take his “Goat” status . No disrespect to LJ or any other nba legends.
As a LeBron fan who lived through the MJ years and has now watched LBJ do his thing for almost two decades... LeBron is great no doubt, but MJ was on a whole nother level. Legit. I understand how hard it really is for the new generations to grasp how good he was... till you watch compilations like this. Welcome to Team MJ Junior! lol. Respect :)
truth
Big B you're not wrong. What MJ did was unreal. LBJ is good but. It MJ good. Defensively, dribbling, passing, he was the complete package.
@@mpcasper8888 Most important is how MJ does it. So smooth, clean, entertaining.
MJ was so good that he took GOAT value away from the all time greats that came after him. If there was no MJ, Kobe would likely be considered the greatest ever in the same way that MJ is because we would never have seen that kind of killer drive before.
Facts
When you realise you have been lied to for all your life.
😆😆💯
Jordan was on a whole Nother level💯
Actually, everyone told you. Do you know that Michael Jordan has the highest vertical leap ever measured at the NBA Draft: 49”?
Lmao young bull never seen real basketball. Well look hard this was a killer 💯
I keep hearing how younger fans are amazed at MJ’s passing skill. They have been seriously lied to.
Imagine winning DPOY and the Scoring title in the same year! He did it.
Imagine coming into the league in 1984 and not doing crap until Larry, Magic and Kareem (among many others were) retired or well past there playing games (Larry was injured with a severe back injury the last 5yrs of his career) and you had a severely stacked team
@@richardgrace5043 🤡
UNTOUCHABLE
A DPOY, SCORING CHAMP AND MVP AT THE SAME YEAR BRO.
MJ also is the oldest to hold a scoring title, oldest to average 30pts and the only 40-year-old to average 20 per game
Im glad I grew up in that era and got to see Jordan through his career. He was on a different level than lebron. Its really not even a debate. poetry in motion.
I even saw MJ play baseball a few times.
And imagine you still haven't seen a whole game played to see how he actually dominated and took games over. This is just highlights.
Nothing like watching it live. I'm blessed to have grown up watching the GOAT!
Been a bulls fan since 88 when they were underdogs against the Bad boys and watching their games until 98 when the dynasty broke up......
I can tell, the highlights are just the tip of the iceberg...
The effectiveness of MJ is really the fear he instill in the eyes of his opponents....
all throughout the game, they knew they got their hands full guarding him on offense and they knew that MJ could shut them down anytime in an instant on defense...plus his passing game once they put 2,3,4,5 man coverege on him...1 man coverage is impossible
I would say LeBron is more like Charles Barkley was during his best years
Yeah, that’s a whole different experience
One thing that makes LBJ “not” the goat is he called himself the goat. MJ has never called himself anything but an ALPHA and a perfectionist.
there are many facts about LBJ would never be the goat, the best one will be when he retires and his career highlight will be jumping teams
@@CheoCascara well said! And trying to create super teams🥴lol
@@CheoCascara someone needs to put up a highlight reel of LeBron's flops. They likely overshadow his dunks lol
You pointed out that Michael Jordan was guarded by all five players on that play. It happened more often than people realise. That was in the deep playoffs and the Pistons all knew that Jordan was the only good player on the team. I don't know if it was 89 or 90, but either way he led his team in points, steals and assists, 89 he lead them in blocks too, 90 he was second in blocks.
MJ said, when asked if he was the GOAT, that he couldn't say yes because it would be disrespectful to all the great players who came before him.
MJ's ability to palm the basketball, his creativity, and his ability to float in the air make him spectacular. He is about as complete as you get as a basketball player.
Flawless
I'm a Kobe fan but Jordan is the goat watching his games growing up was like watching the master of the game vs his understudies. I don't believe anyone is or will be better than him. You should watch his highlights as a roookie
Kobe isn't even top 25. And Jordan isn't even close to the goat. Tired of young kids. Look up wilt chamberlain Jordan couldn't touch him or Larry bird
@@09shelby15 😂😂😂 wilt couldn’t beat Russell for shit and they was playing against a bunch of puny white Boys 😂😂 and bird know he couldn’t fuck with mike when he dropped 60 on they ass in the playoffs
@@allears3867 omg once again a ignorant comment. Pluck anyone off of Russell teams and there in the hall of fame. Youre clueless. Ready by logic Jordan got swept everytime he played bird in the playoffs 6-0. Stop you sound so.dumb. this is absolutely hilarious you hsve no clue who wilt is. Ready wilts 4th best season is better than Jordan's best season. Wilt would.toy with small little boy Jordan it wouldn't be a game. Here's a story for you thats true. Wilt in later 40s played in magics pick up games magic team won calling a foul on Wilt. Wilt said we will play again and there won't be a basket scored on this end anymore. And I bet you guess what happen. Magic got taken to school. Magic was better than Jordan. Lmfao youre clueless keep watching Steven a Smith who's also a asshole and clueless
@@allears3867 how many 100 pt games Jordan have ? How many 50 point games ? How many rebounds? How many blocks and steals ? Wilt numbers crush his
@@09shelby15 yea u are a delusional person and stop it with the paragraphs and u wasn’t alive for none of that wilt shit stop acting like u seen that shot first hand like I said he was playing against puny white boy 👦 he had no competition but Russell and he couldn’t beat him
When you said the whole team is guarding him. That’s when they actually played defense. Js
Was literally the toughest team in basketball history. The bad boy pistons. Lebrons never been beaten up by a team like Mike did in that series... and he went off even more because of it.
If these rules were in place at MJ's peak, many believe he would AVERAGE over 40 pts and even up to 50 pts...The numbers during MJ's era were way down for shots (and scoring) compared to today plus the 3 pointer was way less of a factor...Teams were still using traditional big men to pound the ball inside that ate up the clock...Now they wing up a shot barely after crossing half court like it is a layup or something...MJ's (and Pippen's) 3 point percentage might be a little misleading because he had the ball much of the time as the shot clock or game clock were winding down that would force desperation shots from all over the court
Yeah real defence
FACTS
It’s soooo nice to see a youngin willling to go back and see why MJ is actually the GOAT! I’m 41 with 3 kids now and watching this still makes me wanna grab my ball and hit the courts! Thanks
@james calderon LOL 😂! By being born 31 years before you in 1980!!! I fell in love watching MJ play basketball when I was about 5 years old and even though I know Lebron is a great player, I understand that MJ is better. I doubt I will see a better player during my lifetime…those types of players only happen once in a lifetime. It’s just the way it is
Mate I'm 41 next month and watching this video makes me wanna play basketball...the crazy thing is I've never played it, I'm a soccer coach! That's the impact MJ had on me and many guys like me from the UK. That's why for us he will always be the GOAT
In my opinion and this is my opinion if you wanted to say who was closer to Michael Jordan out of all the players I would have to say Allen Iverson was it's just his attitude killed it for him
For real...
Young blood we know exactly how difficult his moves are. MJ is the goat.
Exactly. Been tryna tell em 😂🤣🤣
Kawhi has the closest shooting chart and defensive mindset to MJ. Lebron has a losing record in both the regular and post season when facing Kawhi teams. Lebron also has his worst stats when counting only minutes guarded by Kawhi compared to being guarded by any other player in the league. Imagine if Kawhi was a much better scorer, more efficient, more athletic, a better passer, hustled like Westbrook, had the mentality of Kobe, the durability of Lebron, an unmatched work ethic, passed like Wade, trash talked like Bird and far more effective leadership. He would then be MJ. So if Kawhi poses such problems for Lebron, just think what MJ would do to him. Especially adding the trash talking head games to all of that.
I still find it funny that people say LeBron is the better all around player.. LeBron never got defensive player of the year or lead the league in any defensive stat ever.. Jordan led the league 3 years in steals. Is one of only 3 players in NBA history to have more than 200 steals and 100 blocks in a season. Him, Pippen and Hakeem.. Jordan is the only person to do it twice..
@Crypto Caliph & The Nomad DeFi Project " God disguised as Michael Jordan " - As quoted by Larry Bird
@DADDY LONGSTROKE Who's discounting Lebron? He's still one of the greatest. This is the problem with bron fans yall think we're "Discounting" Lebron by saying MJ is the GOAT. U only want Lebron to be the GOAT, if we say anyone else then we're "Discounting" Lebron 😒
There was a feeling of excitement whenever Jordan played. You just knew you were watching greatness and knew he was going to do something epic! I haven't had that same feeling since.
Not gonna lie. Curry is the closest I've gotten to that feeling of awe and knowing something magical could go down any time he played.
Jordan drew fans to the game. James made people tune out
@@hikemartman79712 years later and still factual and ever relevant 🎯🎯
Even today nobody moves like him. kobe may be the closest one
Facts 🔥🔥🔥🐐🐐🐐
That wasn’t close. Kobe copied ⚾️ mike he couldn’t copy black cat
Kobe definitely my #2.
Yeah. Kobe came close but his game was moulded almost entirely on MJ. Respect to him though. True competitor!
10 years ago, it was mj vs kobe
10 years from now, it'll still be mj vs the greatest player of that era
I watched Jordan’s entire career an I’ll tell you what makes him so different.
You can be the hardest worker ever and still never be able to do the things he did on a regular basis.
Jordan’s unusually large hands (the average for a man 7’9”…the only center in the league right now with hands bigger than Jordan is Boban.)
His uncanny balance, center of gravity, and the ability to square up from anywhere at any time. What haters don’t realize with the Iverson “crossover,” Jordan never lost his center of gravity or his footing. Compare it to people getting crossed up and you’ll see the difference.
When you are the fastest, jump the highest, are the most competitive, and have the best work ethic, that’s next to impossible to top.
There’s nothing LeBron’s ever done that I don’t feel I couldn’t do at 6’8-6’9, but there are things LeBron physically can’t do that Jordan could, because of Jordan’s bigger hands and better athleticism.
I also put it like this - what’s more dangerous, a 6’6” LeBron or a 6’9” Jordan?
It was like God said He was going to design a person specifically to dominate and be better than everyone else, so He gave him the best of everything.
Plus he played EVERY NIGHT, and had a “For the Love of the Game” clause in his contract that let him play pickup basketball anywhere at anytime.
No load management here.
And no highlight on TH-cam compared to watching him live. You NEVER felt cheated.
Meanwhile, LeBron’s quit on his teammates plenty of times, but my favorite version of LeBron was the Pre Miami Heat Cleveland LeBron.
After he realized he could step over his teammates to get his way, and constantly needing all the best players to win, he stopped being fun to watch.
Jordan would always choose the worst team to play on(or to play against the best, not join them), just so when he won, he could show you just how much better he was than you.
The differences between Jordan and LeBron are nowhere near as close as you younger kids think.
The defense rest!!!!!!! Jury, what's your verdict.... Your honor, we the jury find Michael Jeffery Jordan guilty of being the G.O.A.T. Judge.... Mr. James could u please stand.... U have been found guilty by your peers for trying to impersonate the G.O.A.T.... The penalty for such a horrible & dispicable way of playing basketball is disgrace to all who came an played before u.... The testimonies that I heard from some of the players that played against this man were unreal...... When Mr. Bird said that God was disguised as Michael Jordan, that's all I needed to hear.... Mr. Jordan dominated the sport of basketball when u could actually play real basketball, I don't know what they call this game now..... Mr. James, u and all of these other players are trying to live up to the goat status when in actuality, y'all are just a bunch of kids playing pickup basketball... Y'all get to pick a d choose which other star y'all wanna attempt to win a championship with..... So here is my ruling..... I sentence u and any other player who think they can even live up to the 🐐 status, to be immediately admitted into a mental hospital for reason of insanity. U may appeal this judgement in 125 years.... Now get the hell out of my courtroom.....
@@timothypollion7133 😂😂💯💯💯
BIG FACTS!!!
Awesome I love it, all facts. Hopefully that fool Labum quits soon, even though I quit watching the NBA after Manu and Tim Dunkin retired I'm tired of hearing about him. He got his last ring easy during a pandemic, the other's he wouldn't of beat the Bulls with MJ, he'd have no rings lol. One funny was when James called himself the Goat and MJ saw it and was laughing his a$$ off!! Bye Labum, don't let the door hit you in the arse
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
MJ would score in the 50’s/60’s while playing D all through the game, all 82 regular season games and the playoffs.
You also forgot to mention how physical it was back then. The flagrant fouls of this current NBA age is just an everyday play back then. Players of this age could not handle the rules back then, they would have to take several games off after 1 quarter of play.
@@snowcrossfan MJ had a team here in Hawaii that I played on back in the late 80’s. The unreal physical plays and the hard fouls was unbelievable. I can’t count of how many times I’ve been Undercuted, clothesline and bloody noses I’ve endured throughout the seasons.
You forgot that he’ll be playing against real talent just look at the clips of the players defending him most wouldn’t make today’s G league
@@armonroach4740 Real talent? You mean todays talent who have to take time off? Real talent who a little bump cries about it and then sits out for 3-4 games? That kind of REAL talent would not make it through a regular season but yeah okay. I guess Gary Payton, john stockton, karl malone, patrick ewing, larry bird, magic johnson just to name a few wasn't real talent.
@@snowcrossfan right you only named a few those guys were super stars but the othe others the one who mj would show out on were subpar and talentless you think bill lambeir can keep up with the pace of today’s game you think Danny ainge would make in today’s nba? I’ll answer for you HELL NO
Jordan did it every night. He never took nights off for rest. He went out there every night for the fans. Seeing him live also allowed you to witness a will to win that was unmatched!!
Lol yeah like when he had the Flu
yeah he never had 1.5 years rest in the middle of his prime.
@@elipaurini2303 it wasn’t a rest he literally went to play a different sport. There was no rest for Jordan.
@@TylerBH i agree that he never rested - he would always be working out, thats why i hate people that brush over his loss to the Magic in the playoffs.
That is one of the reason why MJ23 THE GOAT FOREVER
Jordan’s passing was incredible.
And he rarely turned the ball over.
Best player I ever saw.
Getting to witness the entire Jordan era was a pure joy.
Yo respect bro, atleast you're being real and giving MJ the respect he deserves unlike the LeBron fanboys do..
RESPECT BRO! this a great video
Lmao thats funny because MJ fan boys will literally shoot someone of they disagree. This actually happened
Everyone looks good in highlights they both the greatest of there era just enjoy it
@@nikkyblammon6814 I never seen LJ looking that great as Jordan in Highlight tho..
@@StuLenS_Gaming that’s typical ain’t it he’s regarded as at least a top 10 player by most people but he has no decent highlights that is why the people who debate this are deluded you talk some 💩💩💩💩🤣🤣🤣🤣👊🏽
Hey Kid, this isn't all of his best stuff.
Imagine seeing it raw in the 80's & 90's like we did...Nite After Night!!!
yea.. no breaks for rest management lol
I was born in '84 and lived an hour outside of Detroit in the mid '90s. I learned really quickly what Michael Jordan was capable of, as a Pistons fan =P
The youngins don’t understand that this is black Jesus for a reason.
100% agree . I feel so lucky I got to grow up 80’s 90’s . Was such a privilege and an honor to watch in real time .
MJ took not time off. You got his best day in and day out. You watched him because you wanted to see him do something better than the last game. I gre up watching, Bird, Magic, MJ and those guys. He is one of a kind.
Check out the games he had when the opponents talked trash to him, then check out the games when they lost and met that team again, THEN check out the games when he was on the bench in a game that was headed for a loss and the opposing side started talking trash... MJ was absolutely AWESOME! And I wasn't even a fan of his when he was playing.
I'm in my 50s. MJ is the greatest I've seen in any sport.
Lionel Messi. Not saying better than Jordan in his respective sport, but every bit as dominant and good.
@@ButterSmooth88 I'm a big soccer fan and Messi fan,but he didn't maintain the same level of dominance playing for his national team as he did for Barcelona. I'm glad he won the America Cup just before the olympics,that was nice.
Are we just forgetting my man Muhammad ali?
Jordan can do EVERYTHING my boy EVERYTHING you’re just finding out
Yes, my boy
He's young.
except confidence in half court shots on a real game like steph. or number of rings like bill. anyway mj is mj. he does what he is best at. He is the GoaT of his generation
@@CannonAbuserYou doing too much. Steph Curry wish he could do what Jordan did from highschool , college to the pros. And Bill Russell who got 11 rings and averaged more rebounds than points.
@@spaciousgrace3816 ur not getting my point.. all I'm saying is ur giving MJ a misconception of who he is and what he does on some ppl who havent seen him play irl. sure mj is good maybe the best consistent player to build a dynasty with but man, the guy has limits. he isnt everything but he is extraordinary.
Being from Chicago in that era and watching all the games on tv or live in person was amazing. He never took a night off or missed a game with the Bulls except for his second season with the foot injury. That era was tougher and more physical, you add in his accomplishments in less than 13 seasons you'd have to know why he's the goat.
Great reaction. That play at the 6:00 mark (when he dunked over the big guy who didn't jump) is one of my favorite MJ moments. They were playing Utah. On the previous offense play MJ posted up John Stockton, put a spin move on him and dunked it. A fan yelled at MJ "why don't you pick on somebody your own size". The next offensive play was the one in this video when he dunked over the big guy. On the way back down the court he yelled back at the fan "was he big enough". That's what he was saying in the video.
MJ had shots Lebron could never even fathom. The only one who comes close to his skill is Kobe. But MJ was more athletic and had huge hands so he could do pretty much anything with the ball.
the closest think to MJ is Larry Bird not Kobe he is just a copie But if you take a deeper look Bird is the unathlethic version of MJ
MJ is way beyond Lebron, and Larry Bird is even beyond that.
@@jacobscholtissek8337 Nonathletic you may want to go wach some highlights. I dont know why people think Bird is just a nonathletic shooter.
Play styles different
@@TheCamaro5 Larry Bird was a good athlete when his back was right. But he wasn't elite by any means, he would tell you that himself. He wasn't flexible or agile, but had amazing hand-eye coordination. Bird is my 2nd favorite ever behind Jordan. As a pure basketball player, no one played it better then Larry Bird, IMHO.
The "hang time" is just an illusion, he had an insane leaping ability that gave him separation space at his high point and more time to adjust as he was coming down... am a pretty good shooter but my feet have to be set, I have to have a good look at the rim, and there is certainly no ability to adjust my shot on the way down...MJ also had freakishly big hands that were strong AF that helped control the ball as he adjusted midair to shoot or pass successfully (or as you've seen doing nasty fakes while palming the ball)...
The look on his face like he's about 2.2 seconds from burning all his lebron stuff lol and realizes MJ is the actual 🐐
Lmao 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I agree with one of the comments listed below: LeBron is respected, but MJ was feared. Many times he had you beat, and you hadn't even stepped on the floor yet. That's how great he was, even at age 36.
Your reaction gave me chills. Jordan is something else
& Lebron is even more feared, which is why people look to join him. Jordan wasn’t a threat, he didn’t win nothing because he couldn’t get pass the first round, Pippen came in to save him & Jordan needed to take a break and retire while Lebron played longer with more minutes and still is better at 36
@@dominickmccoy4634 you gotta be a stan 🤦🏽♂️ lebron didn't win shit without all stars either and if your father is murdered im pretty sure you gone take a break too but that don't fit your narrative so cap on
@@jayh5183 Isaiah Thomas sister died and he dropped a 30 pt double double same day. MJ was weak. TWO YEARS for that ? Lmao he would of been average in today’s game
Dominick Mccoy, your Lebron had 15 all-stars to Jordan's 1, 😂😂😂 Let it Go, Michael Jordan is the GOAT!
This when the NBA was physical . Not like these crybabies today 😂
Today’s NBA are flops. Back in the day there was no flagrant fouls they physically played hard every minute no time for cry babies was so much more exciting
When MJ's teammates were not cutting it in the playoffs, he pretty much took off for 50, 55, 60 and gave the Bulls a chance. Sorry but when LeBron's team is in the same situation, he can't and it's a Finals loss and you get to see the opponent win the NBA championship. When the game is on the line, can you will yourself to score 20 or 25 in the 4th quarter to carry your team when it's not going your way?
I'm a Laker fan +20 years...the only person come close to him for being a GOAT is the late KB....
That's because he imitated everything about Jordan.
kobe isnt even close,he aint even top 10 imo
Facts
Straight up.. even MJ confirmed that
@@amkobra the dumbest shid I read all month 🤡🤡
Those weren’t even his best highlights
REal tALK
Word
Exactly, watching MJ live as kid was the best thing ever. Got sad when MJ retired for good. Then Kobe came along and it brought a little memory of MJ of his style of play. Both are the greatest players…RIP Kobe!!!!
True. Not even his best plays.
Yep... Jordan Vault (done by the NBA) has a lot of his moves and goes through them chronologically
"wouldn't that be a travel though" * lebron walking, and taking 4 steps 🤣
🤣 legit zombie 🧟♀️ travel.
Facts brah!!
You just make me laugh...
I'll start respecting the 10 threes in a game if it was MJ guarding that shooter.
in the 80s-90s...if yur game is on the 3 line...yur actually termed as "SOFT" 😂😂😂
the primary defense for shooters are the bumps, rough up and those rugged plays which NORMALLY tires the shooters and affect their accuracy..10 threes in a game in the 80s-90s is like yur playing on god mode already..thats why those dudes like Bird, Mark Price, Miller, Kerr, Person, Rice..theyre actually respected coz they can do it on the 80s-90s defense..
but those 10 threes are normal now, coz NBA already took away the defense to stop it..
So if they argued again Curry, Lillard and those current shooters can do the same in the 80s-90s era..ill be wtf 😂😂😂..theyre never really tested all their life
@@pitbulkid so true 👍.
You are talking nasty!!!! OOOOHHHH!!! I love you comment!!!! Damn!!!!
@@pitbulkid you got an high basketball iq, your comment will go over a lot of people’s head🏆
Jordan and Pippen would hound a 3 point shooter before half court and force him to the side and trap him. And then there was Ron Harper ready to steal the pass if it was a short pass or Rodman playing free safety in the back if the pass was long. As great as Reggie Miller was shooting 3s, he couldn't score 10 threes a game against that.
Young man, it`s like this, i have seen Jordan at his beginning, his prime and his last years. Just as i have seen Lebron`s beginning, his prime and his present days ( which i consider then to be his decline years). As someone who played the game, there is no comparison. As far as Basketball is considered MJ is and will always be the G.O.A.T.
Not close in my humble opinion, I'm a lifelong Cavs fan! MJ is the 🐐, I didn't like him because of all the lifelong heartbreak he administered to my Cavs. I've come to appreciate his greatness over the years.
I'm like Solo. I was glued to every game even when I was in college. Todays game is no comparison. Jordan would've averaged 50+ these guys today wouldn't know what to do with hand checks and being put on the floor. #Jordan=GOAT!
And it’s really not even close in my opinion.
@@allstopblue5717 100% correct
Defense was a lot tougher back in the days and Jordan manage to make it look easy
I'm 36 yrs old seeing Jordan do this thru the years was a straight up blessing
Same here bruh. We’re blessed. We got to see Mike, Kobe, & Lebron. 3 different eras and it’s no comparison. Mike was phenomenal NIGHT IN AND NIGHT OUT… Never took days off. Same with Kobe.
@@ikey1119 Indeed bruh.
I was 10 in '84 when he became a Bull...blessed to be a Chicago kid and watching masterpieces. It was so loud in the old Chicago Stadium that the head coaches could not be heard by the players during the timeouts. They had to literally spell out their message on the clipboards. That's what opponents had to deal with.
@@unbreakableironman Unreal, bruh. I can only imagine that type of atmosphere. You could probably cut the air with a knife!
@@unbreakableironman wow lol
Young kids now days. They think their generation is the greatest when it’s actually the crappiest*. Hang time is why they called him Air Jordan.🤷🏽♂️
Michael Jordan: the Barry Sanders of power forwards... Barry Sanders the Michael Jordan of running backs👍🏿👍🏿
Hang time is not a real thing.
I bet he don’t know Mike won Defensive Player of the Year also. First player with 200 steals and 100 blocks in a season. And he did that twice. He was a lockdown defender
Old heads man..
Everyone already knows the 90s had the best of everything
Boxing: Tyson, best all time (Ali close)
Basketball : Jordan (best all time)
Baseball: the Steroid Era of Home Runs, McGuire, Bonds, and Sosa (best all time, even on roids)
Football: The Dallas dynasty (best team all time)
Hockey: Gretsky, best all time
Wrestling: The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin
Best Athlete all time: Bo Jackson
Prove me wrong but its impossible.
Somebody need to send this video to Shannon Sharpe. To remind him that MJ was the total package in basketball.
And to Kendrick Perkins
Shannon Sharpe is a idiot!!!! For even thinking LBJ, is better than JORDAN, Mr. Ed knows the truth believe that.
Or they could watch The Last Dance
He's bias tho It wouldn't help 99.9 of Lb fans just can't accept they take a L for life. Lol
@@GAM3RSiLV3R🎯🎯
Just FYI, the play at the 5:56 mark of the video has a story behind it. It was a game against the Jazz in 1988 and in the previous play before that the Jazz had switched John Stockton onto Mike and Mike of course dunked on him. While going down the court after the dunk on Stockton, the then owner of the Jazz (Larry H. Miller) who was sitting court side shouted at Mike to pick on someone his own size. The very next play is what you see where Mikes dunks on the Jazz tallest player, their center Melvin Turpin (number 54), and while he is going back down the court he turns to Larry H. Miller and says "Is he big enough? "...There will never be another one like him...plain and simple and i consider myself very lucky to have seen the whole thing live even if I am from a country thousands of miles away 🙂
Jordan was better. Just imagine, he only see clips. When Jordan was coming on, the ratings were lit.
everybody was watching bulls games, next day "you see that shit Jordan did last night?"
@@spacetraveler1gone713 yup, I’m gonna say this, Mike had so much influence the league was in shock the two years he took off. Houston was like, 🙏🏿 “thank you” lol
Then he came back and reclaimed his throne. Kobe had to be, it kept fans from going into shock by taking Jordan to soon.

MJ's unfair advantage over the League
1: Hang time
When the defender was coming down, Jordan was still in the air, he was also able to shoot on the way down
2: Ability to grip the ball with one hand
He would get blocked mid air but still able to recover the shot on the way down
3: His ability to jump as high as a 7footer
Him being 6'6 and having a vertical of 48" inches would give you the impression that he spent more time in the air than most
4: His energy
He had more energy than the rest of the league, more stamina wins
5: His mental state of mind
He was always in the zone, extremely focused on nothing but his game, his pure will to win, he wanted it more than the rest, always felt like he had something to prove
Thanks for the reaction
You also forgot.. the size of his hands. This is how he was able to pump fake entire teams like he had the ball on a string.
@@marquisbutler8924 yea I could of worded it better but that’s what I meant by being able to grip the whole ball with one hand
I’m not doubting that he had a 52 inch vertical. His leaping at his physical peak was other worldly!
Michael Jordan also possessed this raw, competitive nature; especially crunchtime, when the game is on the line, or in situations during deficits. He also had a killer instinct. In today's NBA game, the league allows one hand checking on defense. A lot of people do not realize that Jordan played in an era in which two-handed checking was allowed on defense at that time. That means Jordan had to work extremely hard to get around or through the defense in order to get in the lane to score or get his shot off over defenders. The NBA game was very, very physical during his early and prime career. He averaged 30 points per game during his career. Remember the Bad Boy Pistons? Or the front line of the Celtics? How about the Physical Thuggish Knicks? If Jordan played in today's NBA game, he would probably would have averaged 45-50 points per game. Jordan was just a Barbaric Warlord. He was a Gunslinger and he wanted to kill his opponents on the court.

watching MJ play is like watching magic happen, honestly insane.
I don't know how anyone, who doesn't even know these MJ-Clips can even make a statement about who is the GOAT... Seems like he has never seen MJ playing before and still he claims LeBron is the overall better player?
Jordan's mentality was "if u don't block it then it's going in". Only Kobe and Dirk gave me that same feel
Dirk nowitzki?? Lol
I think you misspelled Wilt Chamberlain
@@thirsty57 bruh what are questioning Dirk was killing folks c'mon now
@@IcemanFabian yeah for sure. I read it wrong honestly that’s my fault
What really sets his airness Michael Jordan apart from everyone else was the mentality he had. Never bitched about being fouled, never surrendered, played sick, was a ruthless killer, won 6 finals out of 6 and never went to game 7.
LeBron in that era wouldn't be allowed to develop into what he is today. The game was tougher, defenses were like a concrete wall and when a guy started bitching about a potential foul, he was seen has a weak guy and to be, mentally, hunted down by the opponents.
Thank you MJ literally will’d the ball in the basket
Very true.. I like the fact that a very small percentage of jordans highlights are still there but I also dislike it because it doesn't do his game justice at all! Mj was the ultimate competitor! Only other person that I've seen come close to match his competitive drive is Tom Brady and I ain't even a Brady fan. Mj didn't do load management. He said what if someone bought a ticket for the first and only time just to come watch him play? Nah wasn't in him! He played all 82 games 9 times in his career and the other seasons weren't far off.. If he was healthy, he was playing. If he was injured but not completely disable, he was playing!
after reading this... I just how LBJ would have fared against the Bad Boys Pistons. ^_^
@@pcsixty6 lol I can tell u this much.. There wouldn't be a need for them to create "LeBron rules"
I watched his games. He did bitch about being fouled sometimes but didn’t cry about it like some of today’s players. He just went “ok, like that huh? Watch me beat you”. Watch the Jordan rules. He got absolutely massacred plenty of times though.
The best part of watching y our watch Jordan highlights is it saves me from having to rewind things to see it again. Lol. He was superhuman and the best part was we all knew it when he were all watching live. Thx for the video brother
Nostalgia aside, Mike was BIGGER than the game. He came at the right time. Right after the Hurricanes invented Swag, enter Michael Jordan. LeBron is great comma but, he’s just not better than Mike.
Magic and Bird saved the NBA. Michael globalized it. all these foreign greats are products of MJ one way or another. he made the NBA must see tv. and living near Chicago, i saw it every night and many times in person.
Thats what ppl dont want to understand the game is this popular cause of Jordan he made it an international phenomenon
@@ManChannel123 BIG FACTS bro 💯💯💯💯
Agree. MJ elevated the game to what it is today. LeBron is great, but he hasn’t taken the game to another level. LeBron is the beneficiary of the path MJ paved.
Appreciate you youngsta for actually goin doin research before making your opinion....Jordan had everything plus he was a winner..Lebron is top ten all time definitely but he is noT on Mj level...Now Kobe is the only one touching Mj..Do your research Scottie pippen had bettter numberz than Lebron from shootin to assist and we wont even talk about defense...But all and all I like your channel keep goin you got a new subscriber in me...💯
Boss, there’s a reason the MJ Lebron debate is obviously absurd… MJ is the GOATS GOAT. And imagine watching this in real-time for the first time!!! Lebron know why he chose 23 as his #… It’s SOOO funny seeing you explaining what most people been saying all along 😂💯
😂 😂 😂 😂
Exactly and I saw him at a young age but I could understand his greatness because my family with crazy watching him. I was like this guy is not human. Every game was a highlight reel and that’s honestly what I saw. Every time he touched the ball he wanted to score any way he could. Game after game, I never saw him take a game off. 100 percent effort. They wonder why lebron been chasing the goat because he is the goat and championships don’t make you the goat, you just are. Mj was so different, even for today’s standards. That’s why people still wear his shoes and everything.
That makes no sense son. Read that back to yourself
Back in the day before the internet we had vhs tapes like Come Fly With Me, those were our highlight videos. I used to watch that video before every game in highschool. It would get you to another level mentally.
Grew up watching MJ. Watched LBJ as an adult. MJ evolved his game throughout his career, such as the unstoppable twist acrobatic fade-aways and constantly in motion. MJ needs more than one hand to wear all his championship rings. And never lost in the Finals.
That’s is all the proof your need! 4/10 or 11 I think or 6/6!
Only counting finals wins is silly. All of the playoffs matter. Are people saying that LBJ would be a better player if he lost earlier in the playoffs? That's silly.
Now, if you want to point out that Jordan won six in a row... that's something else.
Jordan was like a superhero come to life, he had no weakness to his game, incredible two way player on offense and defense. There were other superstars when he played, like Magic, Bird, Barkley, Hakeem, Robinson, and later on Shaq, Kobe, and Iverson showed up,…but no player felt as UNSTOPPABLE as Michael Jordan. Jordan was feared by all, at best teams hoped to contain or limit Jordan, everyone knew there is no way to “stop” MJ. The Pistons in the late 80s contained MJ the best, but even then he still went off. Jordan’s explosive speed, athleticism and mental desire to win is what made him what he was. If MJ didn’t have that mental aspect, he probably would have been a dude like T-Mac or Dominique Wilkins, an offense mainly dude that does flashy dunks and gets bounced in 1st round.
I dunno… Duncan, Garnett, Pierce, Allen, Wade, Kobe, Giannis, KD, Harden, Curry, Rose… I think the talent lebron has to deal with is…. A LITTLE BIT BETTER. I will agree, that the concept of team play or the team having an identity was A LOT BETTER then today’s time… but 10 nba finals to 6… y’all don’t give that man his credit. The last Dance series proved to the world that Chicago was built to win! They just so happened to draft MJ. You switch lebron with Jordan… we not having the same conversation. Simply off the fact that Jordan couldn’t even smell the finals until he got another Superstar. Lebron went in 4 yrs with some bums 😂

Michael Jordan was just on another level.When it came down to crunch time and a game was on the line, the question went from "can they win the game?" To "what is he going to do this time to pull out the victory?" I grew up watching Jordan and lived in Chicago when he won his 6 rings and I live in Miami and saw LeBron win 2 rings with the Heat and as incredible as LeBron is and was with Miami.Jordan was just on another level.Like you said you can watch all these highlights but it doesn't do it justice watching it in real time and living through it.
The era Jordan played was physical. This generation wouldn’t survive in that league.
Facts
True that!
If Jordan played in today's NBA he would average way higher points per game.
@stryfetc1 He could drop 80 in a few games. But his averages would realistically be in the mid 40s and the high would be at the 50s. Remember he averaged 37.1 ppg in an era where hand checking was allowed and the pace was slow. That could easily translate to 48ppg in today's NBA where the focus is a fast paced game with no hand checking and defensive three second rules (which makes the lane wide open!). Just look at Jordan scoring on three or four guys in the paint and imagine what he could do with a wide open lane! The rules where changed because the NBA needed a fast paced game so that someone could be the next "Jordan" who could score so many points. They achieved that on paper. But if you watched the games, you would understand the level of difficulty it was back then to score. Thus, you appreciate player dropping 20 ppg. Now even a borderline all star can average 20ppg.
facts
The dunk over Mel Turpin 7'1" around 6:10... Where you thought said he was saying "why didn't you jump?" ...here's what happened..
He dropstepped dunked on Stockton a play or two earlier. Someone followed him up the floor telling him to pick on someone his own size...
Next time down he dunks on Turpin and what he's saying is "was he big enough"....
The man is THE basketball alpha..
That story is actually when he dunked over Karl Malone not Turpin.
@@joelomar wrong. Karl Malone TELLS the story himself on one of Jordan’s Come Fly With Me type movies. I forget which one it was. But ya, Malone tells the story about MJ dunking in Turpin just to put it in a fans face that was heckling MJ about him dunking on Stockton a play earlier. Dude tells MJ “Pick on someone your own size.” MJ comes down next plays and destroys Mel. Looks at the fan and says “Was he big enough?”. Told by Malone. Legend.
I'm from Chicago and let me tell you never missed a Bulls game when Jordan was there. I remember I got arrested for speeding trying to make it home for the 3 point playoff game against Portland and while at the police station the officer who arrested me said " we have a big screen in our break room, wanna watch the game. Spent 3 hrs watching the game at the police station
Great listening to your perspective. There's a reason why we respect the "air-ness" Jordan had moves that even lebron knows would be hard to compete with.
"He had more blocks than I thought he had", lol boi. Jordan was once defensive player of the year, which a lot of guards don't get. Iverson said Jordan was so good of defense that he still almost blocked him after the crossover.
Yup. His defense is never talked about enough in my opinion. Elite defender.
@@johnherndonjr definitely elite.
@Badd Newz well that proves my case lol
@@JamesVancePresents I believe he also won MVP AND DPOY in the same season once... Maybe twice?
As a 33 year old, Jordan was the reason I wanted to play basketball. My dad took me to a game against the hornets when I was like 5 and I still remember it to this day. I agree with you though, they're both number one and unique in their own ways. But, I've personally never gotten pure excitement and joy from an LBJ game like I did watching Jordan as a child. Probably just nostalgia that makes me say Jordan is the GOAT, but I'm not blind or stupid enough to deny that LBJ deserves to be considered in the discussion.

Born in the Jordan era, he made me a die-hard Bulls fan due to his abilities and watching him as a kid in North Carolina. He was also the reason I played ball. LBJ is an amazing player for the new generation and I respect his game. But the game has changed a lot from the Jordan era!! Jordan will always be one of the GOATS!!
they played in different eras, different type of basketball...thus they played a different brand of game. the only factors that hardly changes is how a player approach the game. How they handle the situation. The will and desire they have. Never giving up on the game, on his teammates. Making his teammates have the played the best in their careers. The determination to get better each season. The respect for the game. The leadership skill. That's where MJ is the best and made him the greatest.
Jordan would score more today with today's rules.
Brother you said a whole mouthful and that's what made him shine the most
I remember someone telling that you had to honor each and every one of jordans fakes because he was such a complete player, he could go left right up down anywhere. And jordan would jump first and still be in the air when other guy was halfway down, 48 in vert, he was a monster
not to mention his vert is still the highest in nba history with maybe 2 other guys Unkown
The clip at 5:51 when jordan played the jazz a fan was heckling mike. He told mike to "pick on someone his own size" .. MJ went right at their center and throws down the monster jam. When he was getting back on defense he looks at the same fan and said to him "was he big enough?".😂😂😂

Considering that this is just a very small portion of MJ'S overall skill level this dude still hasn't grasp the level of MJ'S ability & greatest.
It wasn't just his ability and greatness, it's that he did it when it mattered. He rose up when his team needed it and he was clutch. Teams gameplanned against him, the Michael Jordan rules . He was constantly defended by 2 or 3 defenders and he still did what he did. I get players wernt as athletic as the are today but the game Jordan played in was a whole lot more physical
@@marcpina5167 This is what LBJ & Kobe fans can't seem to grasp. At the highest level of competition once he got to the finals he never failed. His will to win was unsurpassed, that's one of the reasons the Bulls never went to a game seven. MJ wasn't having it, whether it was the flu game(Pizza gate) or his last Bulls game. Utah had possession but MJ stripped Malone then hit the game winning shot to end the series. That's why LBJ will always be playing catch up. He lacks that killer mentality. As for today's players been more physically gifted, none of them can approach MJ'S level of artistic creativity combined with his will to win & fundamentally sound game.

Haven't seen a player make you feel like that since Iverson and Kobe. Two other guys just exciting to watch.

Imagine MJ getting locked down by Jason terry in a finals. Regular season he might catch him slipping but when the lights the brightest. The Goat would kill anyone in his path to success. Facts!
He got locked by moncrief 6'4 and Joe dumars 6'3..it happens

@@bofranklin2944 still not the nba finals bro lol. I know he had games like that but not in a finals appearance like come on.
Or pat Beverly talking about give me lebron.... Mike would of had 60 at staples lol
I appreciate you getting educated a bit on what MJ was about, and hope you watch more on him. Also gotta keep in mind that he was doing this in the highlights you saw between about 20-40 years ago, and there's STILL a bunch of his palming/hangtime moves that nobody can do now.
To you and others who claim that LeBron's the best "all-around player" though: doesn't that mean you should be great on D as well? Yeah LeBron was great during his all-defensive seasons from 2008-14, but it's been 7 going on 8 seasons since then, can't blame all of that on age. MJ was 1st team all-defensive through his last year with the Bulls when he was 35.
Then if you look at per game stats, MJ wasn't too far behind in rebounds and assists - especially considering he was 3 inches shorter & 50+ pounds lighter than LeBron, and also didn't play point nearly as much. And how you gonna let MJ be above you in average blocks per game given your size advantage??
MJ:
30.1 pts, 6.2 reb, 5.3 ast, 2.3 stl, 0.8 blk, 2.7 turnovers
49.7% FG, 32.7% 3, 83.5% FT
27.9 PER, .250 WS/48, 9.2 BPM, 7.74 VORP/season
LeBron:
27.0 pts, 7.4 reb, 7.4 ast, 1.6 stl, 0.7 blk, 3.5 turnovers
50.4% FG, 34.5% 3, 73.3% FT
27.4 PER, .232 WS/48, 8.9 BPM, 7.63 VORP/season
Also for the best all-around game, shouldn't that player have at least a pretty good mid-range game (which LeBron doesn't)? The worst thing you can say about MJ's game is his 3 pt shooting, but as you can see, at only 1.8% off from LeBron's it was decent especially back then when there was no emphasis on 3s.
One more thing: how you gonna call 1:18 a travel when he's dribbling?? I know you're biased, but c'mon now.

MJ´s 3pt Game is criminaly Underrated yeah he had a bad 3pt shoot early like Lebron but by the first 3pt revolution mid 90s he improved his 3pt to an top level near 40 %
Jordan was an incredible player in every category. He was, arguably, the best scorer in NBA history... But scoring alone isn't what makes you the best. He was incredible at defense, court awareness, passing, everything. He's famous for the dunks, yeah, but that was just a small part of his ability.
Early in his career, they had him playing point guard for half a season or so and he still put up great numbers. Not as many points, but tons of assists, and still great defense. Jordan was the real deal, deadly on both sides of the court, and ready to dish it off to someone else when he couldn't finish the play.
My man's i was fortunate to see him play many times in MSG and when it comes to GOAT debates Lebron is great but he most def is no MJ. The only one who has ever came close to even moving like him was Kobe. RIP KB.
LBJ does not move the same way as MJ but that does not mean MJ is better imo. You are comparing a 6'8-6'9 carrying 250-280 lbs to a 6'6 220... It's impossible to have the same type of game when there is such a huge difference in build
@@michaelasaah7096 lol before you are quick to jump on anyone's words read again what I wrote. Where does it say Lebron doesn't move like MJ or me comparing their builds? I said the only one ever to come close to move like MJ is the great late Kobe. I have seen both MJ and Lebron play on the hardwood and build has nothing to do with it ya heard and all around the better player of the game is MJ and that's that and you can believe what you want to believe but people just won't except facts. Trust also that there are way better players out there then LJ and that ya can debate amongst yourselves.
People have to remember that the hate that mj got earlier in his career..just look at his highlights when he had to be the bulls pg in the 88-89 season...than u will understand he is the GOAT
or when he averaged 37ppg back when defense was played. imagine what he could do now.
Good reaction man. Imma say a couple things, just imagine the type of intensity these games were played with in the 90s. The NBA was insane in that era bro, so much hostility among the teams, you could feel the animosity. Today, not so much. I can appreciate Lebrons talent and size, but bro MJ was damn near magical. I just don’t see the type of finesse in Lebron that Jordan had. I saw many players like Lebron in the 90’s, they were the ones getting ran over by Jordan. I may sound a bit biased being from Chicago and all lol. Keep up the good work man.
Most of Lebron's highlights would be flopping and over reacting when he doesn't get a call,which is everytime he misses a shot. Come on time to wake up. Lebron not on MJ's level period
@Michael Davis can’t forget his golden globe awards for best flop actor 😂
Duncan owns LJ. Jordan went up against two of the top teams of all time in Detroit and Celtics with 3-4 hall of famers the minute he set foot on the court as a rookie and not once did he run to another team or recruit anyone. He played with the cards he was dealt. LJ ain’t win no chips without Wade, Bosh, Allen, Kyrie, Love or AD.

Yep and what I loved about watching MJ was if someone made him mad you knew Jordan was about too show out and he ALWAYS did, he was such an inspiration too watch!!
I subscribed when i saw the video where you said "he's 4 on 1 and he's the 1.....and he scored.....and got fouled.....omg"......love the videos
Which is why Kobe mocked Michael jordan in every way . He idolized the guy. He tried to walk , talk and play like this guy and eventually befriended him and picked his brain as jordan said at Kobe’s eulogy. Rest in peace
MJ all day
When he had his palms out at the 6:08 mark, he looked at the other teams coach and said was he big enough for you. That coach had told him to basically pick on someone your own size. Recommend reading Playing for Keeps...great look into just how competitive he was
It was a fan, not the coach.
Yeah people always talking about who’s the goat. You realize who’s the goat when you pull up Jordan’s highlights. MJ was just different. He had no weaknesses.
Keep in mind this was just the 80’s and 90’s. MJ was WAY before his time. Let me know who’s doing this in 2021. And I understand your biased but that’s due to the fact that you weren’t around to see him along with Bird, Kareem, Magic, Worthy, and then Hakeem, Shaq, Barkley, Payton, etc. 70’s to 90’s Basketball was just a completely different beast. But MJ is damn near the God of Basketball. The complete package. Damn near no weaknesses.
He actually had no weaknesses in his game. Unless u count gambling a weakness 😂

Lebron is a great player but M.J is the greatest to do it while playing in a tougher version of the NBA
*toughest
There's no way around it, two 3 peats is all that's needed to know.

Magic Johnson too

@@armonroach4740 Right, and as soon as Mike sat out, the Bulls didn't make it through the playoffs
Bulls were also trash in the beginning, while Mike was out putting up 40 pts a game, but they were losing.
Lebron has his argument, he's made it to all of those finals, more than jordan has, but what's hurting him is making it to all those finals, but failing to get the job done in most of them.
Where as Jordan is 6-0 in the finals with two 3 peats.
Plus the undefeated most wins season that Golden State almost beat, but failed to finish off.
End of day though, Lebron is still active, and still has a chance at tying 6 titles, which will help his argument even more.
To me it's not the 6 total titles, it's the fact they did two 3 peats, that's just crazy
These are just some of his highlights. Watching his full games was a sight to behold. Im glad saw him and Tiger play in my lifetime.
I remember I was no older than 4 or 5 years old when I saw Jordan play for the first time, I remember thinking he could really fly, lol. It was like watching a Human Super Hero.
Great review. I'm a old head so MJ live he was so clutch. Always a leader even in defeat. It's my main qualification for goat. Lebron gives up when he's losing big games Jordan always became a monster in big games. It's tons of great players that never got rings because of MJ. And no one not even Kobe had mjs skill it just feel different when MJ do it and no other player has made me feel the same sense
Great reaction young blood.
To drive home your point about watching in real time. I’ll never forget watching a bulls game in like ‘88 (before any title) and me and my two friends were saying to each other, “we need to remember and appreciate that we’re watching Babe Ruth. We are so effen lucky to be witnessing this”.
We knew, in the moment how special he was.
And we were all die hard Knicks fans.
I keep hearing everyone say, "all around game go's to Lebron" MJ was not only alaround, he was GREAT at everything. I mean everything, he had a jump shot out of this world, his defense, he was an All NBA defense player, his passing was magical. He was strong as he'll and what puts him on top with no question was his heart, he took you willingness to play away!!!
Not to mention his CLUTCH Shots
And he did it in practice too...his teammates got beat up too because he was the hardest working guy in practice as well. Did you want to be the teammate that was not putting in a good effort in practice?
ummm not great at everything! 3 point percentage was not that great! He had a few good years where he shot okay, but that's when the 3 point line was moved two feet closer to the basket. Every other year, he shot close to 33 percent overall!
