Michael Jordan Highlights vs Heat (1996.04.04) - 40pts, Scoring&Defense, HE DID IT ALL! 

Ahmad2423 he had pippen and rodman...

Agreed!

Chasing Greatness I don't know if you understand this or not but he played a team sport. So of course he had Pippen, Rodman came along in the end but Pippen had to be groomed and developed. Just as Magic played wit 4 HOF player's, So did Bird Kobe had Shaq. Shaq had a prime Kobe and Prime D-Wade. LeBron had Wade Bosh Kyrie& Love So what's your point...

Ahmad2423 chasing greatness is basketball illiterate. Mike was mike no matter who he played with. Theses youngsters

Playing defense is important. It’s half of the game. MJ wasn’t into padding offensive stats. He took pride in his complete game. So what if playing defense isn’t glamorous? It wins games, and Mike was all about doing everything to win. GOAT no doubt.

marcus lindsey the fire in him. No player today has that

blinley43 then you dont watch todays nba if you seriously say that.

Chasing Greatness yes i do, it sucks

blinley43 keep getting stuck in the past.I bet you think the players in the 90s are better than guys now also.

Chasing Greatness stop crying little girl😂😂

HoustonIsImmortal GREATEST two way-player the NBA has ever seen.

Actually about 6'4 1/2 barefoot

only 6 foot 6 but his reach was that of a 7 footer. Long arms and huge hands made steals rebounds and control of ball real easy.

@@kitsomerset5346 says who? Perhaps it was Kobe who was 6'4.75" barefoot, but MJ is legit 6'6", perhaps 6'5.5". But who the fuck cares?

@@kharenbalois203 I mean kobe was slightly taller than mj

OFCLTrapStar His footwork was impeccable.

m Khan A lot of MJ haters act like he always had a superteam when he didn’t, they bring up the likes of Kukoc/Kerr/Longley/Grant etc as if any of those guys were actual all-nba talent. Pippen was a great defender and was able to dish it as well but like you said he had no real jumper, he couldn’t really create his own shot without MJ. Without him in the playoffs his fg% went down. His best career stats were with MJ. Kukoc as the number one guy after 98 wasn’t great either, he was just a good role player. He averaged what JR Smith did with LBJ in the finals but folks act like he was some Wade type player when he wasn’t.

m Khan very good points. Offensively asserting yourself on mjs bulls for anyone had to be tough.

first of all, kerr was a decent role player but he is just a fucking role player. he was even less talented and reliable than paxson when comparing their primes against each other. the only reason why people regard him highly is his colorful career with other successful teams after his stint in chicago with what ever role he has been assigned with. talking about one dimensional he was far more so than kukoc. kukoc though was far better than jr smith. superior passer with way higher bb iq. jr smith's ability at shooting 3 is as reliable kukoc so that's a draw in my book. but lets put thing into perspective, lebron's lack of help the last season is all his own doing. it should not have been an excuse when he was the one driving other talents away. and the fact that east was so fucking weak is the only reason why he could show up every year in the final. pippen was definitely a all time great but people needs to realize that he didn't play like an all star from the get go. his growth as a superstar had everything to do with jordan. pippen had a jumper/3pt but he is far less consistent vs jordan. pippen can create his own shots but he wasn't as talented as the young wade in that regard. and i can't see how the growth of pippen and grant can be considered as the same as lebron jumping ship to join force with other nba all stars to form a 'super team' the only 'super team' component they had was rodman, which would still be considered as a role player or a one dimensional specialist in today's game. but one has to remember that he was basically an outcast that no teams in the nba wanted because his drama. compared to shit like cousin joining warriors today it is far less contrived. harper wasn't added to the bulls to play with jordan from the get go, he was basically a way watered down replacement of jordan that at times, even more inferior than pete fucking meyer.

Yes! Kukoc in today's game? With the spread floor, no bigs underneath and much less physical play? Probably 25/10/10.

@m Khan, and back-to-back season of 200+stls/100+blks... Only his coach could lower his numbers.

And they also try to say that bron is a better defender smh

@@lamefart only player in history to do this twice. Over 200 steals and over 100 blocks in a season, Michael Jordan!

JTK 1975 against who thou? What offensive threat did he face scoring 30-35 a night , that can dribble like a guard speed like lighting, shoot 46-52 percent while doing it 6’8 240 pound Carmelo, Allen iverson or Kobe or a Kd a Ray Allen in his prime a tmac in his prime Shooter s that shot from the logo at a high percent, tell me who he did this against like LeBron has and I’ll wait

@@thomasbrown7199 well let me see...Magic, Kareem, Hakeem, Isiah Thomas, Kobe, Jason Kidd, Tim Duncan, Clyde Drexler, Malone, Stockton, Reggie Miller, the Bad boy Pistons, Dominique Wilkins, Allen Iverson, Ewing and the Knicks, Barkley, Gary Payton, Dikembe Mutumbo, Shaq, Bird and the Celtics, etc and thats just a few names that come to me..is that good enough for ya? So wait, who has LeBron gone against again? 😂 lmao and MJ actually played in a physical and way more competitive NBA, when they had defense...now the NBA is soft af, there's literally no defense or competitvness..

blinley43 i like the way you think good sir.

Athletic perfection. Determination perfection. HIGH IQ basketball perfection.

chrisx2k6 at its best

blinley43 Ha ha! Nice.

blinley43 I'm going to have to use that one. "Perfection... at its best". Sounds like a classic WWE wrestler line.

Gotta be those shoes

Nah jordan was quicker in 93

Get one thing straight Michael Jordan greatest that evr lived and played basketball. No should be compared to him unless they have done and have the exact same records that Michael Jordan has, are more than he has. Now LeBrons o.k. not above other players that have a way better resume and proven themselves to be great. How come media ignore what everyone else has stated, including fans of NBA . That Michael Jordan is without a doubt the greatest basketball player to ever lived.

Lebron = an unskilled loser

Lisa Rose Go somewhere a knit a Lebron sweater.. LeBron plays one way he never plays without the ball. How many time have you seen him catch and shoot the ball? In addition he let two guards around 6’ check him in the Dallas series and now Beverly is doing the same thing. Go play with tour Barbie Doll.

Lisa Rose Obviously you don’t know anything about basketball the league was nothing but brothas and most were at least 6’5.

Lebitch is not even in the top 10.

Uniquely Unqualified they were hard to get

Uniquely Unqualified - they did but understand that the sports merchandise world was still growing. It was actually MJ that created the entire industry as we know it today.

You calling a 6'6 little guy... Hahaha shows your hatred and insecurity kid. Nice try. I bet you're 5 foot nothing. 😂🤭🤫

@@wornoutshoes11 ur hero politicked for help. Just calling it like it is. 6,6 but that was small and weak.

@@mikemcgrath6150 Here's a perfect example of something that didn't happen.

​@mikemcgrath6150 we found a ped Bronsexual

Okay I’m gonna break down your stupid comment. And very simply also might I add 1. He was a shooting guard, when he played PG in the 80s 30 odd games he managed 13 triple doubles in a row. SG don’t often pass the ball also especially out of the triangle offence. 2. The bulls roster from 84-88 was thin as, pip wasn’t fully developed till 90. And MJ never jumped teams he stayed with the team that drafted him unlike lebron. So with a thin roster of course he wasn’t gonna beat those early to mid 80s Celtics lakers pistons and 76s teams 🤦‍♂️ basketball is a team game. 3. He wasn’t competition for teams ? Seriously ? 🤦‍♂️ Celtics couldn’t stop him, pistons developed Jordan rules aka football rules and exploited the rules and wording to smack him down. 4. He started winning once the team developed into a solid group of role players and once MJ gave into the triangle offence. 5. As for the 3 ball it wasn’t shot as much it is today, MJ could drop 40 plus on anyone without a 3, lebron couldn’t do that at all as he is a 1 dimensional player. 6. You didn’t point any facts at all really, you just made yourself look like a absolute dumb f**k 🤣🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ and a typical bronsexual fan. Facts are your lebron man is highly over rated. So little man stfu and go back to your corner with your pacifier and suck on that 😁 now have a good day

@@speedymaster5758 That's all the anti-Jordan trolls do. Repeat something that's been explained to them a thousand times as if they said something new and insightful. Hold Jordan to standards that they don't hold anyone else to and speak about it casually. lol

Sam Hui what 😅😅😅😅😅

lool i just meant the way he was handling the ball xD

Sam Hui you said MJ looks like KD 😅

Sam Hui No MJ did it first

kyo za You're right DeMar Derozan is so fast, and skilled. .....Lmao !!!!!

Larry Norman Player can be under perform. Derozan have bad game is true but u cant describe player by a couple game. But MJ's era have no quick defender like in 2000's. U can see in final vs Sonic that MJ cant blow past his first quick feet defender in Payton, with simple dribble like this he cant past Payton and MJ got lower than league's average in field goal made. It lucky his team cover his poor offensive game to win the title. You not see any defender slow feet like this clip even in G-league now day.

kyo za. Hmmmm.... Hakeem Olajuwon, Isaiah Thomas, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, Reggie Miller, Patrick Ewing, Dominique Wilkins, Shaquille O'Neal.......weak competition. ...Hmmm??? Al Horford, DeMar DeRozan, Terry Rozier, Victor Oladipo, Lance Stephenson, and I add Jason Terry who outplayed LeBron James in the Championship Finals. ......dude you're a comedian. ....Lmao! !!!!

Larry Norman Easy to reply. All those big names seperates in teamssssss. Only Bulls got 3alltime player and 1 all time coach. MJ got group of hof to defeat other star that have no name teamates. Bulls never run into Big or BIGGER team in their era.

kyo za. How about no hand checking my friend which clearly waters down physical defense. THE FACTS AREN'T IN YOUR FAVOR MY FRIEND !!!!!!!

I guess that explains why they won 60 Game's the next season while having two All-Stars whom both are now in the HOF. Go have several seats wit yo Dumbass !!!
