Good for you, because being able to see and receive what and who is actually good for you, isn't a trait that most have an interest in. To be honest, it takes having a certain *quality of vision, in addition to interest, to see the ***actual reason behind someone's *genuine intentions. Especially if and when they have been placed in your life and you have access to them, first hand. Personally, I feel that it's really a lost cause when someone sees someone's reasoning and intention as negative. As who in their right mind will aim to make them see it. Especially when there is not an ounce of negative energy behind their reasons for. Just the fact that I'm hearing grown males say that he wasn't a good leader (as if leading them is his responsibility) blows my mind!!! I think that too many folk are busy looking for perks and whatever specific interest that they have from others vs just choosing to see things and people for exactly who they are. As Life doesn't make mistakes with who, when and how it places people in each others midst.

"Deep down, he is the same person." Michael was always a ruthless savage, he just waited for the right moment to unleash that, not only to his opponents, but to his team mates as well. Everyone wants to be like Mike, but they don't want to become what Mike really is. He is a very competitive person, obsessively competitive. Not only he was gifted with great physical attributes, but he was also cursed with that kind of obsession towards the Game. That's what Mike has over his competitors, the obsession to become the best basketball player, to become a champion, a winner. Everything that he did is all for the goal of becoming a winner, good or bad. Till now, the only person that I saw who has that same curse was Kobe. Kobe's obsession with training, and becoming the best, for a normal person, or even an average NBA player, it was unthinkable. I, as a fan of the Game, what they did and the stories told by other NBA players, and enthusiasts make my skin crawl, they are inhumans. Other players that I think has that kind of thinking is Stephen Curry. His conditioning is over shadowed by his shooting ability, but when you watch him closely, he is the Energizer Bunny irl. Man will run around the court, doing everything, from 1st to 4th quarter without looking tired.

He was hardcore competitive. He may have not been an easy person to be around but that's what made those teams he played on so great. He brought his guys up to another level. 95-96 when I heard the Bulls were getting Rodman and Jordan came back from playing baseball after having lost in the playoffs the previous season right at the end, I knew he was going to be on fire. Getting Rodman...after all of the bad things the Pistons did to Jordan in his early days, was like someone coming over from the enemy...like it was scripted right out of a movie. I watched every game I could 72 wins in the regular season...no team had ever done that. I always think of them as a tribe of Sioux Warriors from the 1800's. Phil Collins was like Sitting Bull on the sidelines directing the overall show but Jordan was Crazy Horse, the warrior directing the battlefield...and Rodman , OMG, he got into the heads of his opponents...he was the Medicine Man! Pippen, Kerr, Longley, etc...they all played on another level with Jordan there. You watch this video and you realize why...because Michael demanded it. He was possessed with winning competitions. They say he would come to town and read the newspaper to find something where someone said something bad about him or the Bulls and use that to get worked up for the game. That is competitive! That was the most incredible season I've ever seen and there will never another one like it. I think that year was the pinnacle of his career as an overall basketball player. His dunking was on the decline but he mental skills were at their prime and he replaced some of his athletic abilities in the paint with these absolutely lethal fadeaway jumpers. He was like 35-36 years old and you could tell he adapted his game to whatever he had to do to win! And win they did! More than any other team EVER!

MJ is the GOAT and a beast on the court and his drive is top notch. One thing I took away from watching the Last Dance, the last episode at the very end, told me all you need to know about MJ's hunger and what separates him from the best of the best.......when he said the organization didnt want to try, didnt try to compete to see if they could go out and win another championship after they won the 1998 season and they dismantled the team. The fact they didnt try, or want to try was a killer to him. Also when he was disappointed, teary eyed saying if a player doesnt want to play like he did, (his intensity, passion, determination, play at a higher level, take practice seriously), then dont.....man, what player wouldnt want to step their game up and play like that... Man, I felt that emotion when he expressed this. Just my two cents. Not trying and playing at a higher level physically and mentally is huge to him. Probably felt like everyone should play like he played. Adapt to his playing style. Lol I agree.
@Lanefasts
@Lanefasts Год назад
Watching their games back in the day I remember losing my mind when Longley get the ball wide open under the net, and instead of dunking right away, would pump fake, allowing his defender to close in, and be stuck having to take a contested shot off the glass that would miss. I was like, "You're wide open, JUST DUNK IT!!" I didn't know how MJ was with his teammates back then, but knowing that now I totally understand MJ riding him to the point that he didn't like being around him... MJ is a supreme competitor, and Luc was passing on easy dunks for missed layups!

@@lafawnduh1543 Look, It's about help vs not and for whom at the time they were actually playing together -- time travel doesn't exist. He played with one actual active "all star" ever active on his team. That was Pippen. Period, point blank, end of story as far as players go, and there is no argument or dispute that he had any other active all star on his team ever. He made Pippen into Pippen, because Pippen had to learn to guard him and keep up with him in practice, so ironically MJ is the very reason Pippen became the amazing defender he became -- because he literally had to guard the best player in the league -- that the league had ever seen. He had to learn to guard against every part of the arsenal, and he had a lot more time to practice guarding against that, which made guarding every other player much easier and the only problems Pippen had at all as a defender was due to how hard the era was - it caused him legitimate injuries that made it difficult sometimes to play short term and sometimes to play longer term. None of that takes away from Pippen's legacy because unlike everyone else MJ played against Pippen is the one and only player that rose to the challenge of legit guarding him. Could he actually beat him? No. But he rose to being really great, and he elevated his offense in practice and played as one of the most supportive players in the league during most of those active years. So if you want to hype up how good Pippen was for help, go to town. The rest of them are just trash. Someone already covered Parrish and dude was DONE by the time he played on the Bulls. That's like me arguing that Westbrook should be giving LeBron a championship now because he used to be amazing. By your logic maybe he should? But I personally think Westbrook is a pretty trash player now and also puts an extra ding on LeBron for pushing to pay him that much money for such a trash player. Why? But I won't count him against LeBron or anyone -- because, he's overpaid and he sucks, so he doesn't count as an all-star. And that's the thing about context... it matters. "Hall of Fame" is a ridiculous argument for "help" regardless. For one, it is given for a LOT of reasons, but it doesn't always mean that it's "help" (or even that the player was relatively that great) during the timeframe we are talking about. There is also a massive bias about aside from literally just the star player on a team HoF being stacked either for specific reasons that are pretty much like grading on a curve or winning an award by default because you're the only applicant. It doesn't make you true "help" -- it just means that you get the accolade due to: 1. How much people remember you. 2. If you qualify for the award. 3. If you got extra points toward voting for being on a team that won chips -- it doesn't mean you actually were the "help" or the reason for those chips. There are plenty of players who were better players and would be better "help" than Kukoc and Rodman and Kerr by far who've been forgotten because they never won a championship. That's part of the reason why when people say the Celtics had so many HOF players -- they were a great team but not all of them were at the same level and there were other players at that time on losing teams that were better players but again -- will be forgotten as compared to the Celtics that won 4. HOF is for old people mostly - or at least long enough out. There are also plenty of players who were recent players or are still playing who will one day be IN the HoF -- but they aren't YET because they aren't eligible yet. So comparing old HoF to current players being in HoF is just silly. So Why is Kukoc in the HoF? Do you know? Because they have a special category for international players. That is the ONLY reason he is in the HoF. Do you know who he was competing with the year they were picking their international "HoF" man? I bet you don't because there weren't that many international players in the league from that year. Most of the crappy international players got into HoF once it started because -- they were the only ones eligible or there may have been only a few dudes eligible. Kukoc got in by default. Now -- am I saying that Kukoc was a BAD player? Nope. But if he was competing against every person who was eligible for HoF the same year he was would he have won the votes straight up? Not even close. Now -- for current NBA players who are international -- they actually can compete for TRUE HoF and several deserve it without special "international awards". Why is Rodman in the HoF? He had back to back chips with the Pistons and back to back DPOY when he was on the Pistons when he was still a young peak player. Does that mean that when he was in his late 30s that his chips didn't count or that he was a bad player? No. But again, if the ONLY thing we were judging him on was the Bulls and you took away any of his accomplishments with Detroit, he wouldn't rate against competition. He only rates because of the totality and most of that totality is because of his peak performance with the Pistons. He was old, unreliable, and was not consistent. The last year he was an all star was 1992, not with the Bulls. And silliest of all why is Kerr in the HoF? This one is just LOL. He is there because he coached the warriors juggernaut, not because of the Bulls. If he hadn't coached the Warriors he wouldn't even be on a vote. His coaching the Warriors as an older dude doesn't count as "help" like he time traveled back to the 90s and it gave them some major advantage. So I mean like... when a ton of whoever you're trying to use this argument to negate stuff over, are you going to start degrading other people in 2030-2040 when everyone starts getting into the HoF on default? Because fine, but a TON of players are gonna start getting in. And it's going to be for random stupid crap sometimes that has nothing to do if they were good teammates or not at the time they were on the same teams.

One thing they never mention when comparing MJ to others is the “Eye Test”. The Eye Test is how a crowd reacts, is your play style attractive to viewers? do you sell tickets? can you rile up a team? Do you make it look effortless? Are people seeing somethin they have never seen before? MJ had/did all those things. If you were in the seats of a tuesday night game with MJ playing. I bet you would struggle to see thru people yelling and jumping and screaming. The only thing you can compare to crowds of Prime MJ too are Friggen soccer games. The fans were glued to MJ and his playstyle and determination both on offense and Defense. He left people in Awe with his ability to finish every single time.

Watching him play was never a dull moment, and for the times the Bulls lost a game, you could guarantee the next game was going to be even more intense.

Whatever kind of guy all these players think he is or was, or whatever kind of teammate they all think he was, the fact is, he brought the absolute best out of players and extended careers of players that otherwise would have been at the end of the bench on other teams. I watched literally every game from 86-98 and then the wizards years. No one else in the history of the league brought the level of play up like he did. Unless you saw him in real time in his day, you really don’t know… there will never be another player like him and it’s not even close. Those wizards years too… had one or two injuries not gone the way they did, he was on track to take that team to the finals. He was STILL the best player in the game on any given night those years. Maybe not every night at 40 and 41, but when he had his big games those seasons, he was as unstoppable as ever. His game IQ was unmatched. His mastery of the game is just not as appreciated as it should be. It’s just a legend that will live forever for me.

@bradleyboyer9979
@bradleyboyer9979 Год назад
I grew up watching Michael Jordan and living in Chicago. He is and always will be my favorite athlete ever. Regarding whether he is GOAT, that is of course a matter of opinion. But there are some factors that go both ways that I think often go unmentioned. If we are talking about the greatest career of all-time in terms of what was accomplished, he's definitely at the top of that list in my mind. If we are talking about the single greatest basketball player at their peak (at a moment in time) who would be the most dominant in any era, he's definitely in that conversation too. Here are some things I consider, though: 1. He benefits from having the "storybook" career. He was a guy who had to come up as a great scorer and defender who didn't find team success right away and who had to overcome the Pistons to truly cement his legacy... And he did (storybook). He found success and didn't stop, winning three consecutive titles. He then RETIRED to play baseball, came back two years later, and won three more consecutive titles (storybook) The best writer in the world couldn't fabricate such a story if they tried. It all aligned perfectly to capture everyone's imaginations. However, if you took Michael Jordan's skillset/mentality/etc and ran a simulation 1,000 times in different eras, it is highly unlikely that he would have SUCH a storybook career again. That would be true of any player. He benefitted from time and circumstance, of course. That said, he DID have this storybook career in the dimension we live in, and that can't be discounted. He had great opportunities, but he did take advantage of those opportunities almost without exception. The other point to consider is that the supporting cast of the second three-peat is vastly underrated. While the first three titles were almost like MJ's personal championships, the last three were unquestionably team championships. That team would have completed for titles even without Jordan, but they likely would have come up short without his ability to finish games (although they did have a guy in Toni Kukoc who could finish games, and obviously Pippen was no slouch). I think that that team, with nearly any all-star finisher, would have been in contention every year (except maybe the last one). But at the end of the day, we don't have the benefit of knowing how his career would have turned out not given these circumstances or what would have happened if it was someone other than him with similar finishing abilities. As a result, we really have to just go based off what he accomplished, and what he accomplished is pretty incredible. As far as results, he would be tough to beat in terms of career. The LAST thing I would mention is that he does benefit from his persona in these conversations. He has an aura that I've never seen in any other person, let alone athlete. He is the Alpha male in every room he has ever entered. Barkley claims that he's never seen people just stop and stare at another human being like they do MJ. While this personality helped him to be great, it is probably overly-utilized when analyzing him. The players he is compared against for GOAT do not have this aura. The closest was probably Kobe, but even he wasn't on MJ's level. MJ is probably the most loved athlete ever, and those who don't like him probably still fear him. This creates a bias when analyzing how great he was because many just WANT him to be GOAT (myself included). Just some random thoughts I've observed over the years.

MJ isn't one of the greatest basketball players of all time. He is the greatest basketball player of all time. I've never seen such a competitive individual carry themself with such class. Even when he taunted his opponents it came off as classy (e.g. the finger wag to Dikembe Mutombo.) He's the undisputed GOAT. I'd even argue that he's the greatest athlete to ever live. Everyone knew that fade away jumper was coming, but they couldn't do anything to stop it. He was able to take the Bulls to 3 championships in a row, take 2 years off to play professional baseball, and then return to the NBA to win another 3 championships in a row. He's literally undefeated in championship games. The guy personifies greatness.
