Facts

@Damon Tul Wrong ❌

@Damon Tul Wilt scoring average went down in the playoffs many times, and he choked which caused him to lose more NBA Finals than Jordan who never lost any of them ✅

***** So scoring 50+Point's in an NBA Game is not hard?...And you say Michael Jordan wasn't a good passer....LMAO Young fella please go and watch Michael Jordan's Playground. Bcuz you look really ignorant when you comment on things without knowing what you're talking about!!

D Rose - how often do you see 50 scored today? And you're right in the sense that today's game is so much easier to score in because of today's rules which create a no defense environment - it's why we have so many threes today and little else. And what makes you think he couldn't pass? You obviously never watched MJ and are too young to know anything about him. Reality, MJ made passes constantly which is what the triangle offense is about. He had the second largest hands in NBA history which allowed to make passes LBJ or any other player today, except Kawhi, could only dream of making - didn't know that did you? Obviously not? Why do kids like you resent MJ so much? He is the GOAT for a reason - he was incredible not only in terms of his game but his mentality and fire and hunger - something lacking in today's game because every scrub makes so much money today. How does the reality of his greatness threaten you? I'm being serious because I just don't understand why or how a person could have such ignorant ideas and malice towards somebody that you know nothing about - I'm assuming it's because you're an LBJ fan and you hate the fact that LBJ is simply not as good and hasn't performed in the Finals with consistency. Again though - how does that affect you where you spout such vitriol and ignorance when you obviously don't know anything about MJ's game. To say he didn't pass is indicative of the nonsense suggestions made by ESPN in order to pump up LBJ - MJ played shooting guard and his job wasn't to pass but he did so anyway and did it incredibly well. As a shooting guard, he averaged only two less assists per game than LBJ who plays point forward - that's LBJ's job as the guy who controls every possession - not MJ who was almost as productive in terms of passing when it wasn't his job - so why again the hate and how is he unable to pass as you suggest?

Kid-_Flash - sour grapes

yep he would've dunked on Mugsy and stared him down.. and then get a layup rejected by Mourning and flopped

exactly, baseball ruined his legs and quickness and hops. He was never the same. We actually missed out on how greater MJ could have been if he hadn't retired and gone to baseball

@@rayleigh8 after the 1st 3peat, he was physically & mentally beat, he had to step away for awhile & rejuvenate himself... it was very necessary.

After baseball he was older. But I think he did regain all that. He still lead the league in scoring, and was still reverse dunking.

@@1CHOZN7 he regained his ability in 1997 and 1998 as well.

@@eboooo yep

Eric Thuku if you call iso ball, lack of ball movement and throw it the big man in the post exciting

they are. revisionist history.

Lames that's why...lol

This generation is just water down

@@newrecruit100 The ball was passed from Mike to Scottie to BJ. That was an example of great ball movement ✅ The Bulls' triangle offense and the Jazz pick & roll offense dominated the 90s with great passes ✅ 😒 You are an ignoramus ✅

You’re 27 now.

28 with kids probably

Nah - the handle didn't do much years ago. No room to move, no carries allowed and defenders put both hands or forearm with physical resistance on you. It's why the streetball handle had practically no role in the game in the past - many had it but could only use it in certain rare instances. Doing what Steph or Kyrie do today simply wasn't possible. Dell Curry is a perfect example of how being a great shooter was simply not enough back then. He was a weaker defender which hurt him and that was a big deal before.Todays rules allow for weaker defenders to be masked in zones - yesterday it was very different. And you just don't shoot as productively when you can't drive the basket consistently which is what yesterday's game was like.

100%! That is the absolute key to Stephen's game, and he became MVP when he finally learned how to finish going to the paint.

@@boogieloo1831 agreed totally. A lot of the “new” moves by current NBA players like Kyrie and Harden were pure walks and carries in the old NBA days and even today’s FIBA. NBA has to relax the rules to make it more entertaining because there is no more Jordan -like superstars who can thrive in the original basketball rules.

@@boogieloo1831 @soj. h , there were carries and travels allowed during Jordan's days too. You see it in the highlights, even in this video. However, they grew up with it not being allowed, so it happened less frequently when they were in the NBA. For example, 1:14 (3rd dribble after the rebound - left hand) is a carry. 5:37 (2nd dribble with left hand) is a carry with his hand being completely under the ball and the refs in clear view. At 5:48, (Jordan's 2nd dribble with left hand) is a carry with the ref staring at him.

Hell no! 😂

Mike Sannitti It's really hard to blow by a smaller defender and Mugsy moved his feet really well.

How many players today are more athletic than Jordan, Dominique, Clyde, Dr.J, David Thompson, Darrell Griffth, Spud webb, Shaq, kobe among others? .... Not many

36-37 year old Alonzo Mourning blocked 3 of Dwight Howard's dunks at the rim. Go look up the footage. The claim that today's players are so much more athletic is a laughable myth spread by people who know NOTHING about the 90s

***** MJ was playing with a severely injured wrist for most of this season, that's why he had the black wrap on his wrist. Also MJ & Scottie were coming off the Dream Team which took up most of their summer off. They went from the 92 Finals straight to the Dream Team and then the 92/93 season quickly began. MJ was drained & hurt most of the year and didn't play like himself, which was still better than anyone else in the league but he wasn't the MJ the NBA had seen the past 8 years.

And kobe really doesnt compare. He's a distant 2nd to mj but after mj its mos def kobe
