Kevin Garnett Reveals His Favorite Michael Jordan Story | ALL THE SMOKE 

KG is a boss and knows what he is talking about. Who is he? A fan or something?

lol fam you are the future generation

he legit could have won 8 in a row had he not retired, those kobe and LeBron comparisons would have been irrelevant.

Factual bro

@Wane Gates Jordan is better than hakeem, prime Jordan stomps those rocket teams, they only won when he left, and when he returned he three peated, even tho he was rusty.

@@yobro6053 doubt it. I dont think they had the front court depth to beat Houston. Hakeem wouldve feasted on them without a rough bigman down low for Chicago. Cause Horace had left already as dy and rodman was still in san Antonio. Doesnt matter if Jordan was there for bot, Chicago always had trouble with hakeem in the reg season. And that's if they even got past Ewing in Ny or shaq in Orlando.

Zarias I still say Kobe and Jordan aren’t too far off from each other, players were terrified because there hadn’t been a player like that before, Kobe was the same way. Mike could never get in Kobe’s head lol, they were cut from the same cloth

The 80s Celtics sure as hell were not afraid of Jordan or anyone for that matter but certainly respected him

Leo Derosia or the bad boy pistons

After having watched both of their careers, mike is a universal bball player. He played dfense as ferocious as he scored. He also made players around him better in his later yrs more then kobe. This is why i will always call magic johnson the best laker all time. Kobe will always be the most dominant laker. Magic made huge contracts for his teammates and he dominated. Nothing against kobe....big kobe fan as well! But, i have to call it as i watched all of their careers.

Zarias I agree he was like the grim reaper of basketball...f*ck that sh*t!!!

Then he proceeds to describe the next 6 to 7 minutes

There’s so much PTSD in that statement and in his face.

@@CustomizedUsername Keyword is "really"

@@ChrisDodges123 he “really” did explain it is the point. With emphasis and detail which is how he meant it. It was funny was my point.

Im your farmer defo took those nights of when he went 1-9 in the playoffs and when Detroit kept clamping his egg head in the playoffs

SamYG Damn no context either that’s how y’all jordan Haters roll

SamYG egg head 😂😂😂😂. I’m rolling 😂😂😂

@@Sam-oe4dt you must have been born in the late 90s

@SamYG This must be a isaiah thomas burner acc. The 1-9 youre referring to ('85) 1-3 to mil ('86) 0-3 to bos and ('87) 0-3 to bos he averaged 35.5pts 6.7reb 6.5ast 2.2stl in those 10 games...those celtics one of the greatest teams and with Bird, Parish and Machale the best front court ever. In the '86 series Bird called him god dressed like mj and Bird wasnt known for his kind words. As far as Pistons...lets give that team some love...undertated...beat that great celtic team...beat showtime lakers...beat a great portland team and was mj greatest hurdle...The Jordan Rules was a real thing. Force mj to the middle, colapse and foul hard...in '89 series mj avg over 13 ft att per game and det avg 25 fouls per game keep in mind it was a half court game then with much fewer possesions det was fouling off ball forcing guys like grant and cartwright to hit free throws. They would trap with 2time dpoy 6'9 dennis rodman and made it tough for mj to drive and when he did the bigs were waitng in the paint ready to leave thier man and foul. ('88) det 27.4ppg 8.8reb 4.6ast 2stl...('89) det 29.6ppg 5.5reb 6.5ast 2stl....ffwd to '90 mj brought that D and bulls matched pistons def toughness everybody knows how the story goes from there. Start of 1st 3peat. I think all the bad boy piston d talk motivated mj to be the best backcourt defender in his gen, and cetainly forged him for those battles against knicks in years to come. Ill await your rebuttal but i wont hold my breath,

💯. Way better than the way JR told the same story.😂😂😂😂😂😂. Especially the part where they came to the bench.

FRANCIS NYUYDZEFON he’s a great storyteller! Period

Beth Loggins , Magic Johnson story of MJ is also top, they are great storytellers

@@ralphsantaana7303 Ahh true. Always a fun time when Magic tells it.

KGs story about Rodman was hilarious too

Love that quote

Damnnnnnn he said that / About Mike

@@cdplaya1973 😂👍

Like a demon

Ugh, Kendall would get murdered by MJ when he was with the Nets. ugh.

To add too your comment, people also forgot that when MJ came back with the wizards he destroyed some of the young stars of that time...

@@michaelsantiago8161 True, and he was way passed his prime

Mj ain't the goat

@@scoringmachine4694 Well, I think he is, but to each their own opinion

@@wesmyone9562 I agree!

All the athleticism, and all the skills, and all the drive. Congrats Mike.

I'm about to go look for that.

@Ulysses432 Facts! Scottie went off on Toni Kukoc when he played on the Dream Team.

@siegle422006 Johnny Bach.

Johnny Bach didn't call them the Dobermans for nothing

Im sorry jr😂😂😂

That is my 10th Birthday

MJ scored so quickly it felt like 40 to Garnett. That’s killer Mike aka MJ!

Yeah, I was at that game and remember it pretty well. KG actually had a good game, especially for a rookie. Rodman had one of those crazy 25 board games too. But yeah, it was close for a long time but then the Bulls just smashed them in the 4th.

Thanks! Now I need a link to that game footage!

"ok o

What's funny is... these aren't just your normal every day players at the yard... they're NBA players, the best in the world. And MJ plays with em how a cat plays with a mouse, and when he's done playin... It's lights out.

More like respect. Not fear.

@@lopitopito1394 more like both

Lol, you're right, and once more too, even if they stayed out of his way. He'd wipe the floors with everyone in a bloodbath.

Yeah its kind of scary MJ could do something like that. Reminds me Goku going super saiyan. Oh you thought I was done? Let me take it up a notch for you. I swear MJ is untouchable.

🔥🔥🔥

Oh ppl understand it but it’s just ppl think he never could get dethroned n I’ll just leave it at that

I can't wait!!

lebron would be shaken if mj prime mj stand on same court as him. you think the mavs series was bad. lebron might call out sick beofre game starts

Can’t wait, son!

With a few exceptions. James Worthy for one has said he would rather guard MJ than Larry Bird (with an interesting explanation of WHY following the base statement).

@@bricefleckenstein9666 Doesn't matter who he said he would rather guard, he ain't stopping MJ. Neither is Bird 1on1 .

@@Wis_Dom I wasn't talking about Bird defending MJ. And James had a lot more experience guarding BOTH of them than you or I have - I'll take HIS word over yours.

@@bricefleckenstein9666 Doesn't make sense. What word did i make?

@@Wis_Dom James was talking about defending Bird. Nobody was talking about Bird defense.

Indeed. I love the one that Kendrick Perkins told about Kobe, where Kobe was torching him. Kobe told Kendrick "You better watch out, or I'll tear that other Achilles!" 🤣

Man... Happy Birthday to Kobe!!! We definitely need more of this cuz the loss of Kobe, Gigi, and everyone else that was on that helicopter is still fresh! MAMBAFOREVER!

also cocaine maybe haha

@@franciscorevuelta491 KG has always had insane energy. Doc Rivers was talking about it on Bill Simmon's podcast, saying how he'd refuse to sit out during practice when it wasn't his turn anymore, and when Doc finally talked him into coming off the court KG kept running up and down the sidelines anyways, mimicking the player who subbed in for him.

IN LIFE

Facts! I remember seeing KG play point guard in a playoff series. Back then that was unheard of for a PF to run the point, especially in the playoffs.

kinda like MJ was 10yrs ahead of the league at guard the only guards similar in skill and height were clyde hill and penny but penny and hill always hurt that's why he made it look so easy I wish all 4 of them played after the 2000s woulda been great to see

@@P-DAPS Glad someone else remembers the Wolves vs. Kings series where KG had to play point guard coz they lost Sam Cassell to an injury.

@@P-DAPS Bird could do it - and sorta DID do it more than a few times. KG didn't invent the "point forward" concept, though he could be a good one at it.

Brice Fleckenstein Bird & Pippen were both point forwards, but they were both traditional 3s. KG was the first traditional 4 I can remember playing point

tommyarchie I swear bro

MJ being able to step his game up on the spot gives you an idea how much he was managing himself and holding back to be able to last all those 82 regular season games and then the playoffs, and today, with the joke of the defense they have now, they're sitting out games to rest and whatnot, and that one guy even saying he is the greatest of all time...

@@dsfs17987 Facts brotha!

@@dsfs17987 Nothing but facts Magic made it clear MJ at 100% was when he played scrimmages

So what that tells u

AboutMillions facts

I really like the way you explain that😁👍

All the positions are skilled

@@drewjitsu Not in this era, Aside from the all stars you had centers that were literally in the league only because they were tall.

@@aboutmillions you still have that in this era as well. You think Zaza Pachulia and them are skilled? Most them centers back then could ball tho

cause lebum doesnt have that trash talk mentality, jordan ate that for lunch and save it for dinner.

Not only that, but they would ask for his shoes IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME

You right I looked and that's pain in his eyes

and at 3:22 pure terror

Exactly! He's the real deal!

On the contrary, Jordan is very insecure about his greatness as basketball player. He may not walk around telling people that he's the GOAT, but once someone saying that he isn't, he'll put their name in his blackbook.

Not everyone - starting with WILT (who told MJ to his face why MJ wasn't the greatest at the 50 Year Team event - and MJ was SILENT in reply).

@@bricefleckenstein9666 Wilt's opinion don't matter anyway. 71% of NBA players vote MJ as the greatest!

@@tonym3659 If Wilt's opinion doesn't matter, than the opinion of most of those "71%" also don't matter.

As a 42 year old, I respect your honestly.

Mj is cold bro. Lmao he dunk on shaq all day

Old people. Geez :)

Isaiah Rider: (also out of breath) that's why I told you to shut your ass up...🥵🥵🥵

Do you remember this stretch KG was talking about?

@@bigsnap5 I remember the response by MJ. When he was determined to win he had a way of turning on the jets and dominating stretches of the game that the opposition couldn’t surmount. I also recall KG putting up practice shots with neighborhood kids before the game. He was only 18!

@@kiteracer Dope I’m a child of the 90’s and I’m from NY so I’m very familiar with MJ’s prowess. I was just curious to see how your how memory lined up with KG’s.

Because why? True story. For all of them

Byron Scott’s is definitely up there too

Kobe really had the heart. I really miss Kobe Bryant. When he retired I stopped watching the NBA. You see I rooted for a team. The team with Shaq and Kobe Robert Horry and fox. That core did together so long you could call it an actual team. It's not like many of the teams today where players come and go every couple of years. And that's why I kind of had to stop watching it. What am I is a fan actually going to be rooting for franchise merchandise? If no one's on the team more than 2 or 3 years how the hell you supposed to have something to root for? Heck there's no NBA teams anywhere near my city so it was really the guys I was rooting for

I stopped caring about basketball after Jordan stopped playing

@@anthonyarmstrong1423 yeah..me too

As a knick fan m.j was a different breed of kings

paysonfox88 I like the new NBA because teams are finally not just the same top teams stay the top. One month and the top players can move around and have a nba full of finals contender teams, while before it felt like theres no hope for the bad teams to become relevant

His nickname was 'glove'

Nick Van Exel bust his ass.

joe chrow 179 playoff games of 15 or more points his entire playoff career only 6 playoff games under 20 points 0 finals games under 22 points! MJ was different over 1000+ consecutive double digit games counting playoffs and regular season combined no one comes close when you combine regular season and playoffs

LeBron who?

I think someone posted a stats showing MJ played 876 games without losing more than 2 in a row.

@@richardlloyd2589 3 in a row not 2

Only player to have a career scoring avg of 30 pts or better...

I got to see them all. I was in Illinois during that Bulls run. I swear MJ used to score 40 and I used to ask at the end of the game ,"when did that happen?" He used to make it look easy.

Hell yah man, we got WGN up in Canada I got to see him play all 82 games and win all six rings.

Exactly. These young guys think that 2nd three-peat MJ is prime MJ, that wasn’t even the shadow of prime MJ. Prime MJ 88-93 was the true scary one

He was a lot more stronger and physically imposing after the first retirement. In terms of pure athleticism and explosiveness, definitely 87-93 was his prime.

Lakers Fan Since July 1st 2018 I think 91 and 92 are his true peak. He was still the elite athlete from the 80’s but he’d started really taking the weights serious and put on 15 lbs

+Jonny Kilroy Definitely, once he put on that weight. He became absolutely unguardable in the low post.

FACTS. 88-93 Jordan was a beast. No one in today's NBA could see him. 2nd 3peat Jordan was connected to the game spiritually. Just untouchable without breaking a sweat. Check whay Kobe said about him in an interview, how Jordan never wastes a dribble or step.
