@@SKTV1991 your not real bright. The 147 thumbs up. To your thumbs down. Makes that pretty obvious. Get out of your box. Perception might change your view.
I can't stop listening to this speech, it's just basketball but it spreads leadership at every word, every eye movement, every smile. He belongs to the group of most charismatic people ever, not just bb players.
Because he didn't get the same level of fame and recognition that others of his level of talent did. He also comes across as an incredibly humble dude despite all his accomplishments and challenges him and his family endured before making it to the NBA
Man i really enjoyed opening up saying that because they were the perfect match and they should always be tied together. It was like they were one mind
Oh man he was something else to watch he played just as hard on the defensive end as he did on the offensive end he played the whole game like it was 30 seconds left and the bulls were down by one!
He’s not disrespecting the other players ....he was telling them “thank you “.......thank you for bringing out the best in me ....by doubting me you brought out the best me ...it was a sincere thank you in his own way You also have to realize that his entire existence rotated around “winning”.....so all he really has to share with us was what motivated him to win ......that’s all he can talk about ....that’s all he knows
Truth! The story (first by Adrian Wojronowski of Yahoo) that Michael was petty for this speech was written and maintained by non-athletes and non-competitors.
At first I thought Michael was just narcissistic. But after watching this video, it's clear that he is in the sunken place. He obsesses over something that's not real. If you told people living in ancient times who lived off the land and went to war to keep their land that a man became famous as the best person at putting a ball in a circle, they would be puzzled. The TV gives us not only our heroes but our own aspirations. It put Michael in the sunken place wanting to participate in and win a childhood playground activity forever, a dark realm where your imagination creates for you false realities that you then excel at in the make-believe world of Hollywood, TV land.
It's crazy how people criticized him for throwing shots at people when this originally came out. Now with all the context of having seen "The last dance" it is clear he was just being honest about how he felt at certain key points in his career. It's an amazing candid speech.

Notice throughout the video, of all the players he mentioned, the only one he didn't say something bad about or poke a joke at was Scottie Pippen. Respect.

For those here at TH-cam, that call themselves an influencer. This is the first real bad ass influencer ever. For real. You will never know What this man meant to a million guys all over the globe. The dunks, the jumping man, his unique game, his Fire. Glad to be a witness. Thanks Mike. The goat forever.
21:26 That person in the back, "YOU'RE THE GREATEST EVER MICHAELLLLLLLLL!!!!" Watched this guy ever since I was a kid, even before I even knew how to play. I just remember waiting for #23 to get the ball, or was searching where he was on the court. The undisputed GOAT.
Just the fact that his first name dropped was “Scottie Pippen” is all you need to know about their legacy as the greatest duo of all time and how important they both were to each other’s careers and success
This brother gained the world yet lost one of the main treasures in his life...his father's presence. I bet he's thinking that he wished his father was there like every child would. His mother is such a dignified & regal woman...this brother was blessed to have the parents that he has.
Forever the greatest. Very glad I grew up in Chicago and got to see him play in person. Eastern Conference Finals clincher in 1993, I'll never forget it.
Paul Cusentino jealous I saw him play once in Seattle in 91 when I was six years old & will never forget it. So awesome I got a chance to see him live & whoop ass on my Supersonics.
I hope all players take note of that. Scottie Pippen was the perfect player to assure Michael Jordan's success. The key is Jordan had to show Pippen how true this was at the time.
Certainly does. Almost every interview he gave up to this point was guarded and diplomatic. This speech, along with "The Jordan Rules" , gave the public an insight to the ruthless competitor he was. "The Last Dance" has further cemented that notion.
This is a glimpse into the mindset of greatness. He remembers everything, takes everything personal and uses it against you, even years and years later he used it to fuel his acceptance speech.
As it should be…..never forget anything and use it as fuel to burn the fire in your belly…..I can’t play basketball but I can hold a grudge and use it for motivation to make someone eat their words especially when they go out of their way to doubt you rather than mind their own biz.
How is it not? Laser focus and determination can get anything accomplished what have you done besides look up a video and then hate on someone in the comments that like the vid you searched out. You are a dweeboid.
The first person Michael even mentions, 5 seconds in, Mr. Scottie Pippen! These guy's brought a whole lot of happiness to my life & I will always love MJ & Pip...👣
The best player I have ever seen. Great passion for the game of basketball. And stand tall when ever he lost a game. Good one Mike for taking the game to another level
How to become the goat: Practice differently from everyone else. 99% of you don't understand what made Michael great. Read Tim Grover's books. That's a good start.
Shit that's why I came I've never watch this b4 and Jordan was my idol I'm even named after him....I wanted to save that and cherish it I've never watched Tim Duncan's jersey retirement which is crazy because im.his biggest fan favorite player after MJ Duncan is who I go out to play like when I play ball but ion wanna see it cause ion wanna say it's the end for them they still playing in my eyes so I dont watch their retirement stuff
Michael isn't arrogant. He simply sees himself for what he is: The greatest basketball player of all time. He's damn well earned the right to applaud himself for everything he's achieved. And he's achieved a whole fucking lot.
Yes man thats the problem with this world..Its competition and people hate greatness that is why all the arrogant comments..When the doubted me growing up playing hockey they wanted to finish you off trust me I know and when I succeded I pushed it right in their faces..I took a lot of beatdowns to get there and then they called me arrogant..Yeah ok no I knew I was good and I knew who I was and the same goes for mike only on a much bigger stage..Good for him he has self esteem not arrogance..self esteeem.People should work on loving themselves more it seems this is the real problem..You see it exactly right and its sad but that is this world..Most people do not see the greatness that is within them and them when others find their and build on it, the ones without it hate on it..Its basic psychology man...Common sense literally and so many dumb asses cant even figure this out..Mike is awesome..I love all dominant confident athletes period..They know why they are and what they went through to get there. Man I feel I could write forever on this but Ill stop here
Michael Joseph because ppl are lazy and soft. Full of fear. Those soft pussy hate MJ. Hate his dominance & ego. Because these ppl are always the victims in the real life.
Such a false dichotomy. You can be great (as MJ clearly was) while at the same time being humble and gracious. There are plenty of them. Just watch David Robinson's HOF speech th-cam.com/video/90kdNUWYMlQ/w-d-xo.html
JoWall22 lolol. He's not even the top 20 ......even not the top 5 centre of all time. U compared him to MJ? Lol. I love David. But can u remember his MVP season play off run with rocket with the Dream?
That's not the point really. He's a great player and humble... there are plenty of them. Ever listen to Larry or Magic? So you're the greatest of all time. You know what they say, to whom much is given, much is expected. Just because you're the greatest doesn't mean you can't be humble. To be honest, I really didn't have much of a problem with the speech. I thought it was cool to hear how he kept himself motivated. But hearing him talk about his children and how he wouldn't want to be them because they have to carry such a burden following him, was pretty gross, and he wasn't just talking about the high ticket prices. The selfishness in that statement was heartbreaking, imho.
@@lionelsheja6381 Pippen is just flat out jealous of Michael Jordan and wants his life. It's textbook covetousness. the situation with his ex-wife and Jordan's son is only a small part of it. Pippen has had this resentment for Jordan brewing within him for decades. You could possibly say it started with the contract he signed with the bulls which he wasn't able to renegotiate.
Without MJ, pippen can not be improved in that level since he practiced with MJ. Without pippen, MJ could have other tough gays with him. MJ kept him in bull

Kenny T Man is being reflective in his speech. The Goat. Love it.
Yes!
There's no "I" in team
MJ: there's an "I" in win
Savage af, dat killer mentality
Nahhhhhhhh, bro I say ur comments the exact and I mean exact moment he said that. Wow
Actually no, the old jordan thought that, and that mentallity is why he didnt win any championship.
You have saved me 20 minutes of listening for my speech class in college... Your a God
he's fucking bitches behind his wife tho!
mj was the biggest trash talker in the nba, he deserved to be too
This Jordan guy. What a legend.
All of us who lived through those years with the legendary MJ - count that blessing. He is the best one we'll ever see.

Is it cocky? I think not. He's proven he has the skills to back up his talk.

VISIONARY!!🏆🏀🏅🌤️
I can't stop listening to this speech, it's just basketball but it spreads leadership at every word, every eye movement, every smile. He belongs to the group of most charismatic people ever, not just bb players.
Dude is rambling like a drunk
Yeah sure
2018, Still watching this. Is there anybody else there? The greatest of all time.

“Congratulations Michael!”
MJ: *”So I said, what do you mean congratulations? And so I took it personal”*
Seeing Scottie smile and laugh makes me so happy don’t know why
He has a white wife. Too bad she keeps cheating on him
Because he didn't get the same level of fame and recognition that others of his level of talent did. He also comes across as an incredibly humble dude despite all his accomplishments and challenges him and his family endured before making it to the NBA
@Ben Anantavara I see you edited that comment lmao. Even you see how fucking stupid you are. Fuck off.
same here brother.... watch the dreamteam enshrinement ceremony
Man i really enjoyed opening up saying that because they were the perfect match and they should always be tied together. It was like they were one mind
I’m only 20 but I wish I was in his era watching him play in the arena. 🐐 I love his mindset of winning.
Oh man he was something else to watch he played just as hard on the defensive end as he did on the offensive end he played the whole game like it was 30 seconds left and the bulls were down by one!
He’s not disrespecting the other players ....he was telling them “thank you “.......thank you for bringing out the best in me ....by doubting me you brought out the best me ...it was a sincere thank you in his own way
You also have to realize that his entire existence rotated around “winning”.....so all he really has to share with us was what motivated him to win ......that’s all he can talk about ....that’s all he knows
Then he knows nothing!
73trident mcrider ok so a hall of famer knows nothing?
Truth! The story (first by Adrian Wojronowski of Yahoo) that Michael was petty for this speech was written and maintained by non-athletes and non-competitors.
@@73Trident well he knows basketball and he turned out to be a very good businessman. His family loves him, I think he knows a thing or two
At first I thought Michael was just narcissistic. But after watching this video, it's clear that he is in the sunken place. He obsesses over something that's not real. If you told people living in ancient times who lived off the land and went to war to keep their land that a man became famous as the best person at putting a ball in a circle, they would be puzzled. The TV gives us not only our heroes but our own aspirations. It put Michael in the sunken place wanting to participate in and win a childhood playground activity forever, a dark realm where your imagination creates for you false realities that you then excel at in the make-believe world of Hollywood, TV land.
It's crazy how people criticized him for throwing shots at people when this originally came out. Now with all the context of having seen "The last dance" it is clear he was just being honest about how he felt at certain key points in his career. It's an amazing candid speech.
People became sissified the last 15-20 years. I loved this then and more now after The Last Dance.

You seem like the type of dude that says "Now a funny one" after a group picture.
After watching "The Last Dance" all of this makes so much more sense!

Now I totally understand his HOF speech after watching the Last Dance. Jordan wasn't being obnoxious here, he's just that competitive. He's the GOAT!
Me too haha
Me too!!
21:26 That person in the back, "YOU'RE THE GREATEST EVER MICHAELLLLLLLLL!!!!"
Watched this guy ever since I was a kid, even before I even knew how to play. I just remember waiting for #23 to get the ball, or was searching where he was on the court. The undisputed GOAT.

What a fantastic speech. This speech shows his competitive drive and ruthlessness in all its glory. One in a trillion player.
Forever the greatest. Very glad I grew up in Chicago and got to see him play in person. Eastern Conference Finals clincher in 1993, I'll never forget it.
I got to talk to him.

What he said about Scotty ...
Heavy & simple
" Every Championship "
Limits like fears are often just an illusion.. got that quote framed in my house.. you're truly an inspiration to all of us MJ.
Scottie Pippen is the first thing that came out his mouth. No one wonder MJ has 6 rings. #33
Terry Starks he has his rings bc of the team effort dumb dick not one person in the nba has won any rings by themselves
illPharmacist YT lmfao calm down. you new around these parts?
illPharmacist YT “dumb dick”??? Lol pause
illPharmacist YT but scottie was lockin them bitches up
I hope all players take note of that. Scottie Pippen was the perfect player to assure Michael Jordan's success. The key is Jordan had to show Pippen how true this was at the time.
there is no "i" in team but there is an "I" in WIN. Classic!!

If barkley polished his head 3 times, you know Jordan is gonna polish 4 times minimum
Had to watch this again after seeing a few episodes of The Last Dance. MJ's speech makes so much more sense now.
Certainly does. Almost every interview he gave up to this point was guarded and diplomatic. This speech, along with "The Jordan Rules" , gave the public an insight to the ruthless competitor he was. "The Last Dance" has further cemented that notion.
This speech is like a trailer for “The Last Dance” 😂
thomas riner you do
truuue 😂😂😂
Аха0ы
Just imagine to have borned such a LEGEND and pure BASKETBALL TALENT...❤️
He was only born athletic. His basketball talent was earned through sheer work and dedication.
This is a glimpse into the mindset of greatness. He remembers everything, takes everything personal and uses it against you, even years and years later he used it to fuel his acceptance speech.
The Greatest.
Was he married at the time?
As it should be…..never forget anything and use it as fuel to burn the fire in your belly…..I can’t play basketball but I can hold a grudge and use it for motivation to make someone eat their words especially when they go out of their way to doubt you rather than mind their own biz.
How is that a mindset of greatness bruh 😂
How is it not? Laser focus and determination can get anything accomplished what have you done besides look up a video and then hate on someone in the comments that like the vid you searched out.
You are a dweeboid.

"Limits like fears are often just an illusion" .... goosebumps
He didn't write that himself...
Naive fool.
MJ thanking Scottie before anyone else is one of the reasons why he’s the GOAT.
Who’s here after his Kobe speech and mentioning crying Jordan meme
Kevin lol ya
Kevin mee
Bro haha same I came to video right after watching his speech to see if kobe was there !!
Guity
Shit that's why I came I've never watch this b4 and Jordan was my idol I'm even named after him....I wanted to save that and cherish it I've never watched Tim Duncan's jersey retirement which is crazy because im.his biggest fan favorite player after MJ Duncan is who I go out to play like when I play ball but ion wanna see it cause ion wanna say it's the end for them they still playing in my eyes so I dont watch their retirement stuff
Michael isn't arrogant. He simply sees himself for what he is: The greatest basketball player of all time. He's damn well earned the right to applaud himself for everything he's achieved. And he's achieved a whole fucking lot.
Yes man thats the problem with this world..Its competition and people hate greatness that is why all the arrogant comments..When the doubted me growing up playing hockey they wanted to finish you off trust me I know and when I succeded I pushed it right in their faces..I took a lot of beatdowns to get there and then they called me arrogant..Yeah ok no I knew I was good and I knew who I was and the same goes for mike only on a much bigger stage..Good for him he has self esteem not arrogance..self esteeem.People should work on loving themselves more it seems this is the real problem..You see it exactly right and its sad but that is this world..Most people do not see the greatness that is within them and them when others find their and build on it, the ones without it hate on it..Its basic psychology man...Common sense literally and so many dumb asses cant even figure this out..Mike is awesome..I love all dominant confident athletes period..They know why they are and what they went through to get there. Man I feel I could write forever on this but Ill stop here
Michael Joseph because ppl are lazy and soft. Full of fear. Those soft pussy hate MJ. Hate his dominance & ego. Because these ppl are always the victims in the real life.
Such a false dichotomy. You can be great (as MJ clearly was) while at the same time being humble and gracious. There are plenty of them. Just watch David Robinson's HOF speech th-cam.com/video/90kdNUWYMlQ/w-d-xo.html
JoWall22 lolol. He's not even the top 20 ......even not the top 5 centre of all time. U compared him to MJ? Lol. I love David. But can u remember his MVP season play off run with rocket with the Dream?
That's not the point really. He's a great player and humble... there are plenty of them. Ever listen to Larry or Magic? So you're the greatest of all time. You know what they say, to whom much is given, much is expected. Just because you're the greatest doesn't mean you can't be humble. To be honest, I really didn't have much of a problem with the speech. I thought it was cool to hear how he kept himself motivated. But hearing him talk about his children and how he wouldn't want to be them because they have to carry such a burden following him, was pretty gross, and he wasn't just talking about the high ticket prices. The selfishness in that statement was heartbreaking, imho.
"Limits like fears are often just an illusion" this guy is badass!😁
