This physicality of the 90's is why we cant stand the reason so many of todays players miss games. No one plays 82 games anymore and its way less physical now. Way less
Magic Johnson and Larry Bird saved Basketball/NBA, but MJ took it to all new heights. I am a guy from Austria. Me and my friends watched the NBA during the nineties simply because of MJ and the Chicago Bulls. We stayed up until 6am to watch the finals and then went to school.
This is why its hard for us who actually watched MJ to even put Lebron in the same category. Because LeBron dont dominate like that. He doesn't even dunk on bigs the way MJ did. And the bigs now aren't even real bigs anymore.
@@nsant2321 ok 1 real big in 20 seasons. So are you going to tell me that 1 over KG is better than any of the Dunks MJ had over Mourning or Ewing? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@darnelljones9849 hes dunked on multiple bigs on you need to do is look it up and no way your saying cool dunks is the factor is someone is more dominant
@@nsant2321 what also makes this comment funny is KG is not a Center in MJ era he played small forward first them moved to PF. And MJ also Dunked on KG when he was younger not older. KG was already 8 years in the league when LeBron was Drafted.
This literally brings tears to my eyes. Seeing someone so good at what they do and knowing that level of excellence is never going to be achieved again is heartbreaking. I have loved MJ since 91 as a small child. He made the NBA a global phenomenon. All I wanted to be was black. Everyone wanted to be like Mike. ❤
You guys can pick among the following ones: michael "air" jordan documentary, jordan goat szn 1990-1991, michael jordan highest jumps(actually beautiful to watch), jordan highlights "a rare few palm", or stories of celebrities and athletes meeting michael jordan (i bet you guys are gonna be shocked😂)
MJ was hated by opposing teams and supporters but they respected him because he always played every game like a finals, always gave it 110% and showed every skill set he had, every night. He played almost every game, unless truly injured, and for the ordinary folk, that was worth every penny, time and interest watching MJ play no matter what team you supported. He put bums on seats and eyes on the screen everyime he took the court. Truely is the GOAT of BBALL and voted best athlete ever! Let that sink in.....
Congratulations on getting 20K. That's how good he is and how often he was, he has so many highlights that it's good that they have been recorded to video because he makes you forget the unforgettable as he continued adding highlights to his highlight reel.
I’m SO glad that the younger people gets to see Highlights of JORDAN and im a FIRST GENERATION JORDANER and what I mean by that is when the FIRST EVER JORDAN’S came out I was in the 7TH GRADE..And EVERY Kid HAD TO HAVE THEM and it’s SO AMAZING that it’s still like that 40 YRS LATER..and what’s also crazy is THE MAN HIMSELF is what MADE THE SHOES not the OTHER WAY AROUND..and I’VE watched sports every since a little kid and I’m here to tell you the BAR STILL hasn’t got any HIGHER than MICHAEL JORDAN 🫡
@@nsant2321 Yeah, they tend to rank him around there, but we can't ignore that there's a "great white hope" element to Bird's support -- such bias definitely drives some of the delusion and passion for him. If Bird was Black, that level of passion wouldn't nearly be the same and the delusional GOAT talk would largely cease to exist.
I have Bird at 2 as well. Wilt at 3. But Bird is still to this day, the most efficient scorer to ever touch a basketball. On top of elite rebound ding, passing, amd all team defense, you can't go wrong.
If you guys get a chance, check out MJ's greatest defensive plays and Jason Williams' greatest passes. The first video will show just how Jordan wss so dominate not only on the offensive end of the court, but just as equally devastating on the defensive side of the ball. The second video will show Jsson Williams' phenomenal and creative passing abilities.
His hands were his greatest weapon. And people don't talk about it enough. He had hands that were longer than Wilt's and wider than Wemby's. He had a long opposable thumb that allowed him to grip the ball easily. When Phil was asked to pick who win in a hypothetical one on one matchup between prime Jordan and prime Kobe. Phil said it's gonna be MJ, because "he's got those mits".
I watched most of his games guys, WGN would air Bull games free. There are many lost highlights because we didn't have much modern technology- that's why it's so amazing that there are so many Michael highlights because most of his highlights will probably never be seen again, just in memories
I'm 45 years old and no basketball player in the NBA is not even close to Michael Jordan! Michael Jordan in his prime was like Neo From The Matrix! He could do whatever he wanted to do!
Everything thing u see from MJ in this video happened EVERY game , against EVERYBODY. Even against the so called Bad Boys he averaged 30 or more points
He is the best/greatest basketball player to ever walk the earth and it's not even close. I actually saw some of this shit in person. We couldn't wrap our brains around what we were looking at. If he was playing today's waaaaay less physical league with wide open posts, he'd average 43-47 ppg.
Speaking of planning the ball, he was in aT.V. commercial in the late 80s planning a full size pumpkin. And, regarding changing the game, Wayne Gretzky (GOAT) of the NHL world (70s and 80s) is when supports started 'goons' to 'take out' the great players to try to get competitive. Jordan was the only other player that I'm aware of to get 'goon' treatment in team sports. He got the CRAP KICKED OUT OF HIM on the court. There's while videos is him taking hits and checks. Gretzky and Jordan NEVER complained and played THROUGH THE PAIN. They EARNED their GOAT titles. Jordan flew yes, but he had INCREDIBLE fundamentals and developed skills.
Everything that you see Jordan do in the video he could do to the players today. The turnaround fadeaway, the double clutch shots, shooting on the way down, two dribble pull up. It ask can be replicated by him in the games today
If you want to relive or experience what many of us 80's kids/90's teens did back in the day, here's my gift for your next three friday/saturday nights. Order your favorite pizza, get your favorite pop and sit down to watch "Come fly with me", "Air Time" and "Above & Beyond".
Hey guys you want to keep it 100? First I wish you all the best in growing your channel, so here are my thoughts to be taken however you like but they are meant to help hear what we see watching your videos. EVERYONE is doing this video, because it is great. What most people do is not give an honest reaction. I think your lady there is helping to keep you more balanced, but it is still close. Most channels lack in the respect for Michael Jordan and how he is the GOAT and no one is close. The reason there are so many channels doing his videos are to only gain views (just like your doing now) and I get it, we will watch Jordan reactions. Most important you have to keep it real and don't front, watch full games and post them on your channel if you can to see how the great game used to be played.
Before Michael, before Magic and Bird, there was Dr. J ~ the man everyone looked up to and aspired to be like.... whose moves everyone wanted to emulate. To see him, you'll see just how much influence he really had on everyone who came after him. Players like Jordan took what Dr. J was doing and added their own unique flare to it.... but in terms of style and grace The Doctor was the first to walk on air..... There aren't that many good quality highlights around, so here's a documentary about him. I think the best way to understand just how extraordinarily special someone truly was, is to really get to know them: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AKwXf0EQLhU.html "The Doctor"
When it comes to basketball, in my opinion Jordan is the best athlete. But also in my opinion the best overall athlete ever is Bo Jackson. Fastest 40 time in the combine ever, and is the only athlete to be an all star in two professional sports. Yall should check out Super Bo (remastered) by Joseph Vincent.
Did you notice that those plays where they hitting him on the head and grabbing his leg to make him fall to the ground? There were no penalties called and the lebron klutz cult tries to say that he played in a soft era.
Wilt chamberlain, you must do wilt chamberlain. Dont do a highlight video the quality is too bad. Check out “just how good was wilt chamberlain actually”
What’s up bro, I just sub to yo channel 🤝..imma recommend you something magnificent to react to. Please react to ( the most psycho defender on the planet Pepe) you going to be astonished. I’m looking out for it brother
