Michael Jordan vs Kevin Garnett & Isaiah Rider Highlights (1996.02.27)-75p all, Schooling KG and JR! 

The cool thing about MJ is that he came into the league and schooled the old 70s afro dudes, schooled his early 80s generation, schooled the early 90s generation, schooled the mid-90s generation, schooled the late 90s generation, then came back and showed the early 2000s generation that he could still compete. That's a whole lot of schooling going on lol.

"Okay young fella okay! You done young fella? DAMN!" - MJ to KG and JR Rider.

You can really tell the difference between basketball then and now.. And this is WAY more entertaining..

The fact that KG was still a teen looking that impressive playing against the legendary Chicago bulls like this shows how much of a competitor he was. 🔥🔥

I think the moment in question happens around 7:46. It's a 2-point lead for Chicago with one minute left in the 3rd quarter, and as they're going to commercial you see KG holding JR and talking to him as Jordan walks by in the bottom right corner of the screen. MJ suddenly scores the Bulls' next 8 points, haha. And the Bulls won by 21. I'm posting this on Reddit, haha.

" IT Got Bad Quick, Broooo.". .......-KG

I was at this game. KG’s Farragut teammates were in the row right in front of us, KG kept pointing at em after he did something dope. They handed out umbrellas before the game. Jesse Jackson sat directly behind us and we talked at halftime. Rodman had like 25 rebounds lol. What a time to be alive!

This might be the game that KG recently told a story about when he was talking trash to Mike and got J.R. Rider lit up.

Underrated stat from this game's box score: Rodman had 24 rebounds

"damn young fellas damn y'all done? damn"

Can we just take a moment to appreciate Dennis Rodman ? Honestly the man was a class act with fans and he was one heck of an entertainer/ NBA athlete. Hall of fame player , can’t argue with that.

Got to give credit to that guy who keep disliking my vids, you are a real fan lmao

"I feel it....hands on hips, legs locked"

JR was a straight baller... His athleticism were mad crazy !!!

Casual fans claim that the 90s Nba is a weak era. Jason Kidd ( 1994-2000 )- 6 seasons. Kevin Garnett ( 1995-2000 )- 5 seasons. Rasheed Wallace ( 1995-2000 )- 5 seasons. Michael Finley ( 1995-2000 )- 5 seasons. Marcus Camby ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Anthonio Walker ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Jerry Stackhouse ( 1995-2000 )- 5 seasons. Kobe Bryant ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Theo Ratliff ( 1995-2000 )- 5 seasons. Ben Wallace ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Allen Iverson ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Ray Allen ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Marbury ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. Steve Nash ( 1996-2000 )- 4 seasons. So why didn"t these players dominate the weak 90s, like 20-year-old Luka Doncic, 21-year-old Trae Young and 19-year-old Zion Williamson dominates today"s league ? ? *Lebron James barely beat Rookie Jason Tatum ( age 19 ) in the 2018 ECF.* Shaquille O"Neal ( Player from the 90s ) won nothing in the weak 90s, but in the 2000s he dominated, because Hakeem Olajuwon, Karl Malone, Patrick Ewing, David Robinson, Dikembe Mutombo and Anthony Mason were old or retired.

"Mike he don't know the rules to the game he's just a young puppy" - JR Rider

Man MJ is running on transition, front court D, Back court D, in the paint and creating Shots that man is all over the court got damn! And Rodman 25 rebound wtf !

I remember watching this game live. These were the days on Fridays and Saturdays no one went out in Chicago until the Bulls game was over. Damn I miss 80's and 90's b-ball.

LMAO! This must have been the game Garnett was referring to in his interview on "All the Smoke".

The moment Garnett was referring to starts at 7:48. You can tell Jordan stopped passing as much. 🤣

I remember watching this game live. I ran home from the park to watch KG up against the bulls. Back then in Chicago the Bulls were must see tv. What ever you were doing, whether you were watching a movie, playing a video game, outside playing ball or whatever, you stopped whatever it was when someone remembers, and yells that the "Bulls are about to start". I'd race home, run to the bathroom, wash up and hope to catch that intro. I remember being mad that Jr and KG were getting off in this game but Da Bulls handled them. But watching this later on, it's shocking to see how well KG played his rookie year out of high school. He looked like a future Hall of Famer in this game.

Rider giving mj the business that’s the thing about the nba. Everyone got mad skills, it’s just can you do it consistently and be a game charger.

07:39 "It got bad quick yo!"

Wow Isiah Rider had a lot of game.. And everyone knowing Kukoc, knew that buzzer three has a great chance of going in.

KG had such a good game for his age.

jordan called for travelling.. imagine lbj and harden in this times😅

Sick game and MJ taught the rookie a valuable lesson

I truly feel younger people today have no idea what they missed by not seeing Jordan play live.

7:43 is the 1minute 32 second mark in the third quarter.. Rider Foul and then; The Timeout that KG is talking trash to JR... After that... MJ 7:53 - 2 Free Throws, 2 points... 8:00 - Spins Fakes Fades, 2 more... 8:08 - Quick Drive Right Stabs Fades, 2 more... 8:23 - Pulls Up Fades Off the Glass, 2 more... Then into the 4th...wow. 8:54 - 2 Free Throws, 2 points... 9:16 - 2 Free Throws, 2 points... 9:28 - Pull up Jumper, 3 points... 9:46 - Base Line Fade Away, 2 more...33 at this point... 10:14 - The No Look Flip, 2 points... 11:06 - Dish to Scottie, 2 points... The GOAT

I love what Rodman did at the end of the game. I remember back in the 90s, I never was a Rodman fan. It is funny how as you age, and famous sports figures age, you gain more respect for them. Guys like Rodman, and Mike Tyson. They were couple of so called troublemakers back in the day, but are now really fun to hear tell stories and relive the past. Very glad Rodman is in the hall fame and won all his rings, the man deserved them for sure.

7:50 is when garnet was telling J.R that mike couldn’t guard him 😂😂

7:47 hearing garnett talk about this game is legendary!

J.R. Rider could have been a superstar if he kept his head in the game.

Forgot about Dennis doing the Jersey giveaways... Cool.

This is the game that KG & Isaiah talk about being schooled by Mike after getting him angry. It's funny to hear them talk about it.

7:52 ..the beginning of the end lol

10:29.. that Garnett dunk was tough though...

Notice at 1:35, how they call the travel. By those standards, players now will not be able to score a single point, the whole game will be full of whistles

When the score was 11-2, Rodman had 7 rebounds 🤣🤣🤣 dude was a beast.

Mike’s competitive nature is what gets me. His game is so athletic based but smooth at the same time... I CANT STAND MIKE!!! LOL!!! Makes me sick!!!!! My guy can be just cruising to a 40 piece no sides, and you say one thing during the game, interview, barbershop, parking lot, etc...he just gotta add a side and drink...maybe even dessert and a to go plate to his order. Smh 🤣

1:50 Goat shit. All of it. Amazing

"You reach, I teach!" The GOAT

10:15 classic MJ, just makes it look too easy

Awesome game. KG 18 years old - what !!!! I think Stephon Marbury got drafted season after.

Those Concords 96 are a thing of Beauty😍

Mj toys with his opponents, just for show.thats why his the Goat.

This is the game KD and Rider we’re talking about?

Beautiful Defence wore them down. Offence opened up in the fourth. Clinic.

4:38 you can hear MJ say "Short"

Love watching this after kg told the story..I didn’t know kg had that 17 footer elbow shot as a young player..shit what an Arsenal to have in that era where big men didn’t shoot much.

Isiah Rider must be one of those slow unathletic plumbers right?!?! I feel like he would be a star in today’s league

Just a better era of basketball none of today's cream puff shit.

Wonder if that little kid at the end who now is about 30 years old and who got the Rodman jersey knows he’s immortalized in this RU-vid vid.

The quarantine content we need before the Last Dance !!

If y'all remember Isaiah Rider was the first to do the east bay dunk

Perfectly cut up by whoever did the edits. Thank you…..man the good ol’ days. Loved this era, I still have my champion 95’ Garnett jersey. It’s about to turn 30

He was yelling for "help" already vs MJ 🤣💀 0:32

MJ a damn assassin

Rider took Jordan to the hoop with a nice move 1:44

Rest in peace Kobe 💛💜

10:28 90s STAMP #LEGENDARY

7:47 that is where mistakes were made 😂

Good thing you got this clip...

Kevin Garnet Hall of Fame!!

KG already showed his talents in this game

KG changed the forward position true stretch

The Goat 🐐

My favorite MJ story.

Jordan and Kevin Garnett had amazing games. KG was just a rookie right? wow amazing play by a rookie. Jordan was excellent as usual.

Isiah Rider was a problem 🔥

Who here after " All the smoke" Interview with KG?

damn KG was QUICK

You know KG made MJ MAD when MJ stole a rebound away from Rodman, who was on a roll with 24 rebounds in this game

"Yo, RJ...my bad, man..." -KG to Isaiah Rider

Wow, I forgot Terry porter played in minnesota.

Garnett was all these new era big guys in the game today , back then .. imagine if he played in this era

That Damn Rider was a Problem !!! 💪💪

These bulls !! What a wonderful team to watch !!!

this is hilarious that this is the KG JR Rider Jordan Story game

hey man love your content as always! But would you mind adding also some Toni Kukoc highlights to your videos? That would be cool i think. HI from Italy.

KG has been a beast since a young buck

Great vid love these games

Sick!

Rider should have been a superstar player if he stayed with the wolves & had that mj,kobe fire to just be 100% determined & over obsessed in the game, He would have done KG a solid & been a more successful team if my favorite player after mj & LJ back in the day just stayed on tbe right pass,same issue with Kemp,but kemp went well by becoming a main player on a good team that was successful every year once he kicked into gear.

Gugliota had a couple of years in him in PHX after this. But man did he shut down in Minn. once KG got there.

This make me feel like I’m born in the 90s

I usually don't watch these videos, as I either saw most of these games, or saw the highlights when they happened. But I remember watching this game. Young KG was such a beast, he could do it all. Mike was Mike...but Kucoch killed it off the bench in this game.

Man the Wolves had a young exciting team with KG, Marbury, Rider, and Guggliotta. Immaturity and ego out in the way, of what could have been in Minnesota.

7:45 - This has to be where KG starts the trash talking and Jordan overhears... because after this moment, Jordan has fire in his game... he wants the buckets and there's no turning back... plus they were down by 2 as Kevin Garnett mentions in the story. That or it happens around 9:25 where Jordan seems to enter yet another gear, shooting a line-drive 3, the commentator mentioning he didn't think Jordan would even get 20 tonight and has 33. 10:15 is just ridiculous. Notice how few Timberwolves highlights there are by the end.

How many years ago MJ retired and we all still talking about how great he was and how no one else will come close to be called the goat but only him .

They was playing with them incredible 👏

KG game blossomed his 2nd season you can tell he's gonna be HOF

Jr Rider is the most underrated player of all time. He wasn't MJ but honestly who could take jordan off the dribble or in the post as easy as he did and not have made 1 all star game.

I seen 2 fouls that was called on Minnesota against Michael where I didn't see a foul. Also there was a travel called on Isaiah in which Michael was in the picture that I didn't see a travel.

dis is legendary bro good shit ong

Jr rider has a good triple threat swing move and jumps high off that first step.... Very tough.... Also gugliotta threw some nice dimes . You can tell kg was raw with lots of talent energy but a very smart player even at that age. Thanks for the video 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🏀🏀🏀🏀

Around 8:10 is where KG probably got MJ fired up 😂

I didn't even know who JR Ryder was until KG told the story in All the Smoke, dude can definitely ball.

Jordan with those Concords!

1:43 One of the few times MJ truly gets schooled.
