Shaq Reveals What It Was Like Playing With Michael Jordan 

JJ is so full of shit. He doesn't care? But he constantly talks about it. And he's constantly trying to bring Jordan down. He most certainly does care. And he's also extremely biased.

Nobody was more dominant and unguardable as MJ. He schooled, embarrassed, and humiliated his opposition.

"I don't care about the GOAT debate" while unzipping LBJ's trousers is some hilarious stuff JJ. Real comedy here, brother.

JJ's a Duke guy, constantly looking to dethrone the Tar Heel holding the #1 spot.🤣🤣🤣

Jj trying so hard to change the narrative for Lebron

MJ 🐐

When have you heard someone say it was like playing with god reference a player. Shaq, AI, etc say it’s MJ. How is this even still a conversation. Longevity, James hands down. Greatest player to ever set foot on a court, Jordan. I get it makes for good debates but it’s laughable at this point

Jordan was like watching a demi god out there. He was so magical out there it's like he wasn't even real. Like as a kid in the 90s. We literally thought he could fly. If you started playing the bulls intro theme right now I'd get PARALYZING CHILLS. IM 42!!

nobody plays defense in the NBA. 25 pts in todays NBA is different than 25 pts in Michael Jordan era .

I love how hard shaq reps for Kobe after his passing. Kobe is my goat

JJ is a shameful clown.

MJ🐐 and no one can convince me otherwise because I saw MJ and Lebron played. I saw Lebron choke with the Miami heats and MJ never had such moment!

JJ not star struck, yet everyone one at the top 75 NBA players, All Star weekend were still in awe and star struck when Mike pulled up. JJ out here capping

Jordan is still the greatest ever play. That's why everyone still wears his shoes and wears his number

Kobe Bryant said the same exact thing , “It’s one thing watching him play, its another thing playing against him.” 🙌🦅🇵🇸

Hearing jj reddick talk is as entertaining as watching paint dry.

MJ GREATEST OF ALL TIME 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀💯🎉 BULLS 🐂🐃

The Magic went to an NBA final within 6 years of existence. How is it water down team/NBA?!

LeJJ at it again

The expansion argument again, holy dumb points JJ. It didn’t water down the entire league lol but it did make a couple wins easier to obtain, but the cream still rose to the top and the competition was relative.

Am I the only one who thinks GOAT, this word is not just enough to explain and describe Michael Jordan? He's more like a descended god himself to show us how to play this ballgame, basketball. He completed this ballgame. We know nobody will show us anything better. It's the mythology in the era of science like a Greek mythology including comedy and tragedyㅡ for people who were born before and around 80s. Lucky us, we'd witnessed the finest play and narrative and...we just get to know that it was last dance, nothing will ever be over his legacy and nothing will be as beautiful and inspirational as his play. THANKS GOD, THANKS MIKE

I wondered if he’d be as good for that long without balco

I"m so proud of JJ for wearing his hat cap-forward. Colin would be proud as well!

JJ is always credible but by saying those things about MJ makes him totally the opposite. JJ be careful you are in your start of your journalist career. dont become the next Nick Wright

What I noticed about MJ’s film is he guarded the point of attack, if you ever got the ball, you were going to have your nuts checked by MJ himself at some point in the game, and that’s where fear would come in

JJ just lied when he said 90 players got added to the league. 6 teams x 12 roster spots = 72 and those 6 teams didn't pick guys off the street, they picked guys that were playing in the NBA

Where not bringing up 3x Steals leader, 9x 1st team all defense and defensive player of the year? MJ only scored? Over their careers, LeBron average 1 more rebound and 2 more assist.

JJ ain’t even a starter in the nba back then. No defence and passion

The league was not watered down by adding a couple teams in the 90s. They didn't take random guys off their couches to fill those rosters. They took players from every other team.

I can’t imagine being a dude that says the phrase “lost in the sauce” and have my legs crossed like that

I still don't understand how they leave out Tim Duncan. greatest power forward ever an he's 5-1 in the finals.

You just agreed that it is really hard to keep a wining competitive edge, if that is so, then what does it say about a MJ for doing it in 2 three-peats?

Jj with the legs crossed I'm every interview mangina😂

Sneaking in a David Robinson slight 😂

3:44 and every player today would get called for carrying 35 times a game if they played in the previous era. Yeah, its different.

What are you talking about JJ? Jordan's era watered down compared to what? Compared to before '88 maybe. But not compared to today. Did number of teams shrink after MJ?

MJ is the goat 🐐

Hey JJ there’s a quote from Lebron saying the league has too many teams early in his career so that was watered down. Those teams back in the day added were good. Shaq was one of one

MJ would stun JJ's growth further playing ball 🏀...

“Ray Allen was my idol” and Ray Allen’s idol was MJ but JJ says lebron is the goat lol

Scoring 25 now doesn't mean the same as... scoring 25 in 1990! No one is allowed to play defense in today's NBA.... period. The NBA now is only flag football with nearly everyone travelling.

No, JJ the greatest is MJ without hesitation. There is no debate.

JJ on Bron so hard he talking like they added 6 teams at one time...lol He wants that Lakers job...lol

We get it JJ, you got a podcast with the man… we’ve seen the episodes… chill Fuck out of here with “water down” Shaq and the magic reached the finals and weren’t even close to a decade of existence

Shaq be cussing like crazy 😂😂😂

But Lebron doesn’t win and chooses who to play against and has injuries when he has to play dominant teams. Longevity 🤦‍♂️, it’s the worst argument eveeeerrrrr.

Bill Russell and Kareem have to be in the conversation too. 6 rings, 5 MVPs, all time leading scorer for the longest time. Russell has 11 rings, would've been MVP many times if it existed back then. The problem with Kobe is he doesn't have the stats, accolades and never dominated the league like MJ, Lebron and Russell. MJ never lost in the finals, Lebron went 10 times, Russell won 11 times. Kobe was only #1 for two of the finals and it doesn't matter what anyone says: it's a fact. Shaq was finals MVP all 3 years they were together, and regular season MVP once. Phil built the team around him and told Kobe to scale back because Shaq was #1. Shaq's finals numbers were crazy and he was one of the most dominant players ever. They had to hire players just to foul him because the only chance they had was him shooting free throws. Then look at Magic: he was finals MVP in his rookie year as a center when Kareem was injured. He has 3 MVPs, 3 finals MVPs including in his rookie year. And he revolutioned the PG position. Kobe is considered a copy of Jordan and not even the best SG ever. How is he above Magic?

JJ is probably really high in this conversation.

1 min in and its about Bron.. you care JJ.

Jj wants to prove LeBron is the greatest so bad.. he can never give MJ any props. MJ in his prime, if he heard JJ talk, MJ would have that day circled for LeBron just to make JJ eat his words. Don't overlook Mikes competitiveness. That man kept his college roommate up all night until he won in monopoly lol. The game has evolved... you don't think MJ wouldn't evolve more in today's game? Yes.. yes he would

Great at load management, reduced back to backs, one 82 game season an done it at the highest level

There were not 90 players added to the nba, that's not how the expansion process worked

What happen if the NBA put the rules of the 80s and 90s this days?

Lebron is a great, great player and in my own personal rankings he's actually no.2 in my books. But MJ is no. 1 and I can't even see anyone coming close. MJ is a once in a lifetime player. There's the stars we all know about already, but for me what people forget about is how MJ played during the 80s and early 90s. MJ CAPTIVATED you. There's great skilled players today like Kyrie, Luka, Anthony Edwards, etc etc but they still don't excite me as much as MJ did. Something about the way MJ used to float in the air and do creative layups and dunk. There's a reason why they say, 'Wanna be like Mike' or 'Fly like Mike'.

Everyone’s great I didn’t even watch basketball before Kobe died but his work ethic is second to none and that why I choose Kobe because he inspires me to get shit done

It must be so miserable knowing the only way you can make money is by being a troll.

JJ: when you're 22 and play against people you have on a pedestal, it's different. Shaq: That was Jordan for Mr. JJ: Really? REALLY?! MAN WHAT! LIKE YOU SURPRISED 🤣🤣🤣

Jordan and then everybody else.

Mj goat

Anthony the next one

FYI just because someone does something longer does not mean they did it better

Damn JJ and Shannon Sharpe must be great friends

MJ is just made different. He had the IT factor there has been nobody since. It is like seeing a fictional TV character brought to life.

JJ knows more about basketball that I ever will but I can't help but feel like I got dumber after listening to him talk.

Also sports medicine, recovery and nutrition gets much better during the decades has contributed to longevity

JJ's hate for MJ continues on LOL.

JJ the lebron boy

JJ, you were not in MJ caliber period. You cold not contain MJ. JJ struggle to give MJ his props. Opinion

Mike, LeBron and Kobe (MLK)

JJ and Bron started the done with the 90s

Shaq: " a lot of people don't know this but I wanted to be like magic johnson... a 6'9'' point guard" ... I saw shaq live at the palace, the year he won his title with the Heat. I think it was D miles that said it best, you can be 7 feet tall... still look at shaq and be like... god damn thats a big MF.... The dude did the nastiest reverse I ever seen IRL then gave a wink to Ben Wallace afterwards

Draymond is forgetting that 01 team had Ron Harper & Horace Grant in that starting lineup. And had shooters Fisher, Horry, Rick Fox, Brian Shaw, even Glen Rice the prior season. That KD Warriors team losing in 6! ✔

All stars teaming up to make super teams didn't water the league down?

I hate the constant censoring.

not even shannon sharpe can SUC* Le-flops James so much as this JJ reddick dude

Lbj has bewitched those guys. For real !!! lol

JJ punch a- always trying to discredit Jordan to lift Bron up 😂

For someone who doesnt "care" about the goat debate.. why bring jordan down to pull up ur man bron... dont wori he will make u lakers coach so u can be the new scapegoat...

Did shaq burp ??? 😂

When the discussion is about " Who's the greatest? " for sure its always subjective. But Mike's influence in Basketball is the greatest! Everyone wants to be like him. You want to play like him, you want to wear his shoes. I mean common man. He is second to none. His colleagues knows the magnitude Mike brings to the table. Even if he is with celebrities, they tell you, Mike is more famous than them. 😂

I dont wanna get in the goat debate. (Feels like 2 different vibes though:) 'He was the best young leader.' 😎 'So... what was his aura like...?' 😮

JJ needs to research more before saying things - how many roster spots then ? … 12 and now it’s 15 plus 10 day contracts so is it more watered down now? No - nba level players are the elite and always have been since it became professional… Stop pretending to be impartial while elevating Lebron and down playing MJ we can see what you’re doing

Shaq go along with whoever he's talking to. How does the expansion water down the league?

Peak>longevity Mj the best ever Lebron is somewhere in the 8-12 range

WTH is his comment on water down? So if his argument is true then its still watered down now, no? Its more players now then back then, no?

Guys who went to duke

The whole argument of adding teams might lead to a water down league may have merit. BUT makes no sense when debating LeBron and MJ; it's not like the league has detracted in LeBron's era.

Bobcat was not at jordan era this boy its crazy

so Bron also played in a water down league....Charlotte, New Orleans & Oklahoma City

👍🏿👍🏻❤ Yes Oke Ya Maaf Happy Cinco De Mayo Meksiko 🇲🇽

JJ's argument doesn't quite hold weight because you're still adding the best players in the world to those teams. Yeah you'll have that team struggle for a few years but it's not unlike the ordinary doings of the NBA.

JJ follows the current money.

If the newly added teams from the Jordan era are still in the league, then the league is just as watered down today as it was then. Either way you still have the best 300-350 basketball players in the world. JJ’s logic doesn’t hold up.

Question for the comments. Do you think Lebron’s longevity in the league has anything to do with the rule changes as it relates to fouls and overall play. Do you think Lebron could have played as many years through the late 80’s and 90’s where hacks Shaq was allowed?

6:25

There’s 2 names in the history of history within sports, that are more household than any other names since the start of time, and those 2 names are Muhammad Ali, and Michael Jordan. Jordan 3 pieced the league twice and is 6-0 in his finals wins. Really not much more to say.

“I don’t care!!” JJ cares more than anybody on the planet. He is obsessively, frighteningly in love with LBJ like a little girl looking at Tiger Beat and swooning over a celebrity. Scary.

No NBA player crosses their legs while sitting better than jj. No comedian does it better than shulz.😂 just jokes🤡 yall have a good day

He doesnt wanna do the goat debate but keeps talking about lebron, what he did etc... stfu JJ
