MJ is the only b-ball player I can put in any era of the game and will still dominate. His Airness is second to none.

I'm an old man - started watching the NBA in the 1960's. Wilt was my man even when he went to the hated Lakers. I loved watching Jerry West and Elgin Baylor because they brought perfection to the game. LOVED watching Earl the Pearl of Baltimore and then the hated NY Knicks of the early 70's. Dr. J changed the game and did something I'd never seen every time I saw him. Larry and Magic advanced the game and I never thought I'd ever see anyone better than those two. Then MJ came to town. At first, it seem like all he did want dunk but as the years went by, he advanced his game and had practically no weaknesses. He was an average 3-point shooter but the 3-point shot was not as much of the game as it is now. He's the best I've ever seen. Nobody came close. Nobody today is in his orbit. My all-time top ten - 1. MJ, 2. Magic, 3. Wilt, 4. Russell, 5. Bird, 6. Lebron, 7. Kareem, 8. Duncan, 9. Shaq, 10. Kobe.

He’s the greatest my dear... MJ is the standard of basketball. Retired 2 decades ago, but still he’s compared with current players. 🎉 6-0 in the finals 10 times scoring titles

Watching Jordan live is crazy. It's almost like he's got this glow to him on the court and even in public. The energy he gave off was insane

Also in his 3rd year he averages 37.1 points a game but they said he wasn't the best on defense so the following year (his 4th year) he averages 35 points a game and wins Defensive player of the year. That's just who he was and how he played. The only thing that limited him was when people stopped talking trash about him. And they stopped early on. Like that clip where he made 6 3s in the first half was only because a reporter said that MJ couldn't hit 3's so the next game which was a championship game he hit 6 in the first half....that's just how he was. And that's why even though I'm not a basketball fan I was a HUGE MJ fan and I loved watching him play because him just playing was like everybody else's highlight clip.

He is the G.O.A.T.....for real. I'm from Chicago and we got him when I was a junior in high school. I saw him play live several times. I can't describe what it was like to see some of this shit in person.

Michael Jordan was just on a level of Basketball that simply can't be surpass..🏆🏆🏆🔥🏆🏆🏆🏆👑

Just a small comment on the so called push off. First, they allowed hand checking back then compared to now - so some minor contact was allowed without any penalty. No one at the time considered that a push off - they are trying to apply todays 'rules' to yesterdays game play. MJ and Coby are the only players that I would watch regardless of who they were playing. I grew up in Michigan so being a Pistons fan I watched MJ tear the 'Bad Boys' up once Phil Jackson became their coach. And I couldn't even be upset because it was so much fun to watch MJ play.

To even ask who we got between Bird and Jordan is INSANE.

When I saw him on the USA team in the 84 Olympics I. Knew he was better than anyone I ever seen at basketball.

In my opinion as an old fella that watched MJ from the start in 85 as a kid, the 1996 Bulls team was when I think they peaked at being virtually invincible.

A lot of people get the goat debate confused with the best debate. They are two different things. As far as the goat debate it doesn't matter what era you played in it only matters what you're resume says and that's why Mike is the goat to me he has the most complete resume. I would also say he is the best to me too and that's simply because he did the most ridiculous things the most consistently

1) Upon MJ's arrival in his Rookie season it was evident he was the greatest basketball player. Every single game that man played, produced multiple highlights on both sides of the ball and he was relentless. He didn't take games off for load management, and he never rested on defense. He played 82 games 9X, and he was one game shy of that being 10X. It was impossible not to be at the edge of your seat when he had the ball in his hands. For context, MJ's stats his rookie season (84-85) were equivalent to Kobe's(07-08) lone MVP season. 2)MJ retired that first time because his father, who was also his best friend was murdered, and he originally wanted his father to have seen his last basketball game. Baseball was also his father's favorite sport, so he decided to give it a go in honor of his father. His love of Basketball grew stronger with the lack of his success in baseball, and his competitive natural wanted to go out there against the new players in the league like the Shaq and pennys of the world. MJ admired Magic and Bird, so when he won his 6th chip, he felt he had nothing else to prove. 3) MJ/Lebron debate... all you need to react to on that subject is a video titled Jordan vs Lebron - The Best GOAT Comparison - by DANGERProductions. Link below: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtJjoLVnytWpkWw.html 4) There is no such thing as "My" Goat. That was made up to make people feel good about their own favorite player. There is nothing wrong with having different favorite players. I have many favorite players and that includes Larry, Steph, etc. But there is only one GOAT. There is no other player that has the combination of dominance, individual accolades, and winning as MJ does. Kareem has the best arguments against MJ, as his career is impeccable. The issue I have with Kareem, is he had way more talent around him during his career, and his last two rings came because of Magic Johnson, not because of him. Kareem won those chips when he wasn't the best player on the floor. That could never be said about MJ. All off MJ's rings were while he was driving the bus.

I got to see him twice in Philly and he did some incredible plays in the way the crowd reacted you would’ve thought that we were in Chicago. He was playing chess while everyone else was playing checkers is about the best way to put it. He did things that no one has ever seen before or since he retired

Getting tickets to a game back then was really difficult. I went to a few games and it was unreal watching him live, even from the cheap seats.

I've been an NBA fan since the mid 1970's and coached youth basketball for years. 2 of my 3 sons played competitive basketball through high school here in North Carolina. My middle son even attended camps with Stephon Curry that his dad, Dell Curry, sponsored here in the Charlotte area. My personal top 3 are: 1. Michael Jordan, 2. Larry Bird, 3. Magic Johnson. After the top 3, it’s more debatable to me. I’ve seen everyone over the last 45+ years. IMO, these players had the best BALANCE of FG%, FT%, clutch play, great offense, great defense, makes teammates better, great team play, shares the ball, passing ability, finishing, coachable, high basketball IQ, finds a way to win, has all areas of the basic fundamentals down pat, seeks high % shots FIRST, knows where teammates are on the court at all times, able to score while being fouled, played against tougher competition, played against great defenses. No one today has ALL of these attributes. These 3 are the only players ever to not have any holes in their games at all. Not even Lebron can match this. He flops, gives up on defense ( a huge negative), and has choked in too many key games. All of these negatives are glaring and brings down his value. To me, only Michael, Larry, and Magic had ALL of these attributes and are (by far) the most clutch and best players of all time. Consistently winning the close games is what separates icon players from everyone else. No players after my top 3 come close to doing it at the level they did. Though today's players have a lot of talent, most players lack most of these attributes and no one has all of them. Defense and team play are almost nonexistent today compared to the 80’s/90’s. Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, and Magic Johnson (by far) are the most clutch players of all time, did it against the best defenses of all time, and did it during the most talent rich era of all time (80’s/90’s). Because of the addiction to three pointer, lack of teamwork, and lack of defense the game of basketball is not nearly as exciting and interesting. It seems that many young people who do not understand the fundamental attributes of the game and haven’t seen players pre -2000 play night in and night out are the ones who claim that Lebron is the best. Older people who have seen decades of the best players know better. Anyway, overall, Great video. You did an awesome job.

His footwork, vision, the fact he defied gravity and had every defender terrified of him and on their heels made him unstoppable. He froze people with the fact he could pull up and shoot, he could drive past you, fake a pass or make a pass. You just never knew ho he was going to beat you, but he was going to.

There are no words to describe it. Imagine fans didn't want to go see their home team play even when they were giving the tickets away. But when Jordan came to town they would double the price. Tickets were insane when he came to town. Plus I know the music was kinda of terrible but a lot of answers to your questions would be answers if you would've kept it on. They did a lot of voiceovers during the video.

I was very fortunate as a teenager. My dad was event maintenance supervisor for many years at the Omni in Atlanta. So from about 84 to 90 , I got to all the Hawks home games as well as concerts, wcw & wwf wrestling and several other shows / events. I loved my Hawks.. BUT Larry Bird was always my favorite player and IMO Jordan was the best player no matter what court he stepped on! No words can describe his athleticism on that court. He looked like a High Schooler playing with middle schoolers most of the time. You said it right when you said he had Everyone on skates when he had the ball. I think that’s because he could do it all and they literally just couldn’t guard him with any consistency. Great reactions, please keep them coming.

Also the best Bulls team athletically AND experience wise to ME was 93. But the 72 win win overall can't be compared to as far as Bulls teams. And MJ's first retirement was because after his father's death he always wanted to play baseball, so he fulfilled his dream. Rumors still float around that the commissioner was gonna suspend him for excessive gambling, so he played baseball.

Watching Jordan play in the 90s you felt like he wouldn’t ever let the bulls lose a series. You felt he would always find a way and do something incredible

MJ played in an era when the game was much more physical than the game today .

lol what young people don't understand is that he did these type of plays every single game. if you never got to watch him live it's hard to comprehend how incredible he was as a player. his whole career was a highlight reel. dude was a freak.

There’s on old writer that said he would tell foreigners that come here..go to Grand Canyon Mt Rushmore and go see MJ in Chicago..the atmosphere in the old Chicago stadium was outrageous…you couldn’t here the person next to you and they could be screaming.

Seeing Jordan and the Bulls was unlike anything before or since. He gave 100% every minute, of every game. No load management, no nights off for rest. He respected that the fans paid their hard earned money to see him, and he was never going to disappoint them. It didn't matter who the opponent was, you saw something you'd never seen before, night in, and night out. You knew, for the next few hours, you were going to be glued to every possession, watching a master of his craft. So happy I got to experience it in real time. I have hundreds of regular season games on VHS, any one of them can be a highlight reel by itself. His consistent, persistent, intensity and drive to win will never be matched. It's the one thing guys like Lebron can never duplicate. No amount of stats can ever top MJ as the greatest player to ever lace up his sneakers. Larry was a killer as well, without the athleticism, but he's the only one who could give MJ a battle mentally.

Micheal Jordan is the goat 🐐?? Even Larry Bird said he was God in disguise 🥸..I'm a bulls fan and remember when you got drafted in 84 . You knew when you went to see him play live on TV something spectacular was going to happen what a great and phenomenal player it was

Don't know if anyone said it yet but he retired the first time because of his father's murder. He lost his drive n love for the game because his pops were to every game...they were really close..

Saw him 3 times in person. It was an amazing event. People used to stop whatever they were doing at night and everyone watched the Bulls even during the regular season. He was black Jesus

MJ the GOAT by a mile, whoever is second is nowhere close. You can all debate second place but nobody is in the same stratosphere as MJ. It’s all about the skill, the athleticism, the fundamentals, the clutch gene, the mentality, the killer instinct, the stats, the accolades, the eye test, the winning. This guy was really the complete package. If you want to be in awe you need to watch the rarest voyager video. Fun fact, MJ is the lightest guy to ever crush a backboard with a dunk

For me, I am not a basketball fan at all. I literally wore a T-shirt in high school that said I would rather have wrestled and lost than to ever have played basketball at all since the sports were played at the same time. Michael Jordon is the only player to ever suck me into the game. I loved watching the bulls. There was nobody before and nobody since. His personality, passion, drive and creativity will never be matched in my opinion. There are people throughout history that transcend their craft. They give you chills when you watch them. He was one of them. Bruce Lee, Denzel Washington, Tiger Woods.... The list goes on...

That play always gets me...never have I seen anyone hang in the air pause for a pass fake then dish it off to teammate cutting to basket for dunk... this dude is by far the best well ever see on basketball court! & I 1000% agree with you on the hustle!!! #theGoatMJ23

Blessed to have seen dude play. Every night he put on a show. It felt like he never missed.

Watching MJ live and going to his games was insane. You didn't want to blink and people stood up when he got the ball. They didn't want someone to get in their way, because they might miss something iconic or historic. Every game. No cap.

Quick story for you.During the draft when Mike was being discussed by the great coach Bobby Knight he was told by the teams that they would take a center over Mike.Coach Knight said "Well dammit take Jordan and play him at center and he would still be the best player he ever saw" Now if you knew Coach Knight he does not give praise easily.One of the toughest coaches to ever do it!

The best to ever do it GOAT

Jordan. But my starting 5 would be Jordan, Magic , Bird, Malone and Hakeem. I love Larry. That era is unmatched. Its soft now. Guys get a hang nail and they go on injured list for a month. I saw MJ play twice. I look back and i took it for granted but it insane. The energy, the crowd was cheering Jordan and Chicago was playing the clippers in their home arena LOLOLOL. What i noticed was jordan was effortless. It was smoooooth, art and he was soooo quick. His jumping is quick and explosive. He doesn't need to "wind up" say like a vince carter . Carter isn't a quick jump. Jordan can also jump from either two legs or one. There was no "moment". He body of work made him the GOAT. But that dunk against New York, where oakley plus another defender jump on him , Jordan acts like he is turning around but he spins baseline and dunks on Patrick Ewing. There is another where he is about 10ft from the rim, standing still, took one step and dunked. Jordan left because not only the challenge but the press was all over him, his dad had died and he was burnt out and if he was going to try baseball it had to be then. It wasn't because he was just bored. There is no goat debate. This generation has hyped up lebron and the media as well. Watch DangerProduction video and you will see it wasnt even close. lebron needs to worry about bird, kobe, kareem . #1 is taken . People can say eras but guys like Jerry West come out and say he has never seen anyone like jordan ever.

I grew up in the MJ era and him saying that the era differs on who is the best means something. Dream team with him and Bird on the same side was so awesome though.

There are so many MJ moments, I can't just pick one. In my opinion he's the G.O.A.T. because he changed the game of basketball in so many ways. Not just in his era, but the eras to follow. That's why he's the Greatest Of ALLLL Time!

i remember the draft i could not believe we got him at pick no3, his olympic coach said before he played 1 nba game (bobby knight) thats the greatest player i ever seen!

The dunk over Patrick Ewing and the Knicks was my Number 1 MJ moment

"Watching MJ live or going to an MJ game what did it feel like?" Well that was a long time ago and I was only 11 but MJ was something different. He generated an excitement to watch him play ON A GLOBAL SCALE, that there never has been an athlete that compared since. Talking about MJ being basketball's goat ain't enough, he was the best athlete of all time.

Larry himself said he never saw anyone play the way Mj played. Larry also said that one of the scariest things is to see MJ coming towards you on the court and not knowing what he was going to do.

And he was the most dominant DEFENSIVE player at his position

Jordan is the GOAT of GOATs. That's why people still use the expression "he's the Michael Jordan of (fill in the blank)."

For me...when he came back and dropped the double nickel in the Garden...I was like, you know what....LOL

You KNOW LBJ never made you feel like MJ making you feel when you watch his highlights! =]

MJ is the GOAT. One reason us the fact that when you saw the last shot against Utah, you knew right away that he was wearing 14's. That was the only game he ever wore the 14's. Could you call out LeBron's shoes by the number at a glance?

Nobody is neck to neck to mj, wilt is the only one anyone could make a real argument about because he was just so ridiculously dominant. Not a push off, Byron's momentum never changed, it was going that way and it didn't speed up or anything. His body was leaning forward, there was no way he was going to be able to stop without falling over.

Look'n at MJ Live on the court he looked like he was literally gliding out there!

MJ is the GOAT for 4 specific reasons which these other GOAT competitors don't have: 1. His Elite Defense / Elite 2 Way Game 2. His Longevity Consistent 82 Game Seasons 3. His Playoff Success 4. His Dynamic/Creative Scoring

it was electric! like waiting for the best shock, the best present...over and over again! That's what it was like to watch him live!

There wasn't a singular moment that made MJ the GOAT, it was the collection of moments that make him the GOAT. NO ONE has a better body of work competitively with the wins to go with it. NO ONE!!

My favourite Michael Jordan Moment. I actually have two: 1984-1993 and 1996-1998.

I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE LIKE MJ. I WATCHED BALL AND WENT TO GAMES IN THAT ERA. THERE WAS NO ONE THEN AND THERE IS STI NO ONE LIKE HIM. FACTS

46 here, it was like watching a superhero. This video doesn't do him justice. It was like this every game.

He became the GOAT the moment he stepped on the court. What do your eyes tell you? You're seeing what I saw, but I watched a lot more of it because that was my era. It was a very different game then. Much more physical. There was hand checking. You had at least one shot blocking 7 footer in the lane, sometimes 2. There wasn't the spacing of today's era due to the prevalence of the 3pt shot now. 2 very different players in 2 very different era's. There is no comparison. At all. Jordan had no weaknesses. Not only was he the most dominant offensively, he was the most dominant player at his position that ever played. 6 final MVP'S, 6 times to the Finals, 6 Championships. Add all that up, that =GOAT.

Rockets fan here and Hakeem Olajuwon is still my fave player. My friends growing up in Houston didnt hate Jordan, but none of us were like "Jordan fans", but we responded him. We rep our Rockets, but we knew we were watching something special when we watched Jordan play. He was just different. Like from another planet different. We knew we were watching the GOAT after that 1st 3pt. 2nd 3pt just cemented it

I saw MJ once at the Dean Dome in chapel Hill North Carolina where I grew up the energy and atmosphere in the stadium which you didn't know at the time but was exhausting. When we left and went to car it felt like we had just played 2 strait hours.

Every Mj game was a mini highlight reel. He always put on a show.

I was in LA when the bulls come to town. It was the year magic came back the place was packed all the stars was there it was crazy. Micheal is the “GOAT”

He hustled his ass off EVERY GAME! On defense and offense! He was a terror on defense and maniac on offense. That separated him from the rest. Jordan was a rock star of Rock stars. Casual fans watched the game on a random Tuesday just to see him play. In the arenas it was a show of shows.

Jordan was not known as a shooter. Even called it his weakness. So in the 92 finals, Portland played off him and he hit (at that time) a Finals NBA record 6 threes in a half.

MJ G.O.A.T also made the NBA global too two separate the 3 peats At foreigners all over the world to come to see Mike plus the jordan brand on top it too larry bird call him a God

My favorite Ultimate Mix Tapes are Larry Bird, Michael, and Magic's. Lebron James Ultimate Mix tape is completey boring compared to the afore mentioned three.

I was at the Knicks game when he did the fake spin and dunked on Patrick Ewing when I tell you the crowd went wild my heart was racing with excitement but my pops was devastated the look on his face I felt so bad for him🤣🤣🤣

My favorite non dunking move was that one against New Jersey with the baby blue jerseys where he had the Nets bench players coming up off the bench. He goes up on the left and comes down on the right while flicking it over his head @ 7:08.

For me, watching MJ on TV back in the day (Jordan was the reason I started watching and the reason I started playing) almost every game there were a few shots where I was like, "ah, no, that was a bad shot why did he WAIT HE MADE THAT??"

Watching him live...the anticipation of the next big play....you didn't want the game to live...I was able to see him live about 8 times!!

I'm a born Hoosier like Larry Bird! But Michael Jordan was from another planet! I'm old enough where I saw Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, Oscar Robinson, Dr J, The Iceman, Bird, and Magic Johnson, Kareem, LeBron and many others play, they were all great winners and players, however I've never seen anybody play professional basketball better than Michael Jordan. Michael is only 11 months older than me, when he came in the NBA in 84, I was a straight up LA Lakers fan. I never thought Michael Jordan and the Bulls would beat LA in the 1991 NBA series. Lol, that's when Michael Jordan made a believer out of me. 10 NBA scoring titles in a row, 9 all defensive first teams. Michael Jordan is the best NBA player hands down. If he hadn't retired to play baseball, I'm sure the Bulls would have 8 NBA championships instead of 6.💯 When Michael Jordan played college basketball for Dean Smith he played great fundamental basketball, his athleticism was off the chain, but before he played one game in the NBA he was playing in the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. They turned him loose, I was like wow, he has jumping abilities like Dr J, but better, and creative moves of difficulty like The Iceman. I was amazed at his game. They slaughtered all of those countries from around the world 🌎. If you can find some 1984 Los Angeles Olympics with Michael Jordan and the USA basketball team you will be totally amazed at his international game before he ever played in the NBA. He was clearly the best player on the court every game.👊 To answer your question about, how was it on game night when Michael Jordan played? He sold-out arenas every time he came to town not only in Chicago's United Center, every city sold-out tickets when Michael Jordan and the Bulls came to town. The best Bulls team I've seen was when they went 72-10 and won the championship that year. They were so far ahead of every team, I don't think they lost two games in a row the entire season. Another thing about Michael Jordan was in the 4th quarter when every player was dead tired, he was still moving like the energizer bunny, frfr! He was unstoppable!

If I make a team I'm DEFINITELY starting with MJ

This the best reaction to this I've ever seen. I was gonna say that the GOAT debate is impossible because every era has a different set of rules and ways of playing the game. I'm glad you brought that up. I was a teenager into my twenties in Chicago when Jordan was around. He was my GOAT, but I understand everyone's argument. Love the player you love in your era that got you into the sport. You're not wrong.

Mike was poetry in motion.He was that dude

When he retired the first time! He had lost his dad in a robbery murder in Noth Carolina I believe! There was speculation that his gambling on the golf course may have had something to do with his dad being killed. The media was really trashing him during his grieving period, him and his dad were so close. Michael Jordan was crushed and his family. So the accusations about his gambling may have caused his dad's death took the wind out of the brother. So not long after his dad was killed is when he announced his retirement. They investigated him, and found out they were false accusations. They caught the young dudes who killed Mr Jordan. He was asleep on the side of the rode in his Lexus apparently tired from driving when the young thugs came up on him robbed, and shot him. The coroner didn't find any ID on Mr Jordan so they cremated Michael Jordan's dad before his family found out it was him. The dental work in his mouth proved it was Michael Jordan's dad. They didn't even get to have a proper funeral for him. This all played apart in why Michael Jordan retired the first time to go play baseball.

Knick fan here. If there was one particular moment, it was the score; steal the inbounds; lose it to the swarming McDaniel and Starks; then DAWG, NO QUIT to break up the play going the other way. No fucking quit. Ever. I remember it photographically, as a Knick fan. If you think there is any "debate", you simply have no clue.

Glad to see the younger generation. Seeing why we claim MJ is the Goat. No ones game can touch his Airness. Unbelievable and a honor to watch real time. 96 bulls untouchable in my opinion.

Larry Legend got OWNED😂☝🏼

MJ all day....Everyday... Because he did it all , that has made basketball become not as exciting again., you now kind of comparing everything you see with his...and none has even come close. The Dude is simply the man. GOAT.

I started watching the NBA before the Toronto Raptors even existed. It was all because of MJ. I was impressed by his leadership skills and offensive & defensive domination. Michael has won the Scoring Title 10 times, meanwhile, LeBron has just won the Scoring Title just once. LeBron has played in 20 seasons and MJ just 15 but he still has accomplished way more. Here are some trophies & awards just in the 1980s before his 90s outburst: - 1984 NCAA Player of the Year - 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles (Gold Medal) - 1984 first game in the NBA - 1984/85 NBA Rookie of the Year - 1985/86 missed 64 games with a broken foot and went to the playoffs vs. Boston who were 40-1 at home. Michael scored 49 pts in game 1 & in game 2 he recorded 63 pts - 1987/88 Defensive Player of the Year and Regular Season MVP - 1987 & 1988 Dunk Contest Champion back-2-back years - 1989 hit "The Shot" that sunk the Cavs

he always looked like he was the adult playing with a bunch of kids lol

Your right about the hustle. I was born 1980 and I can remember every game was like a playoff or finals game, from start to the end of the season and seemed like their were less injuries back then.

No shade to Larry but... Jordan was a defensive menace in blocks and steals, Larry was the better passer but its not that Jordan was a terrible passer, the Triangle offense was basically designed for Jordan to 1v1 ISO everyone because literally no one was able to create a shot better than MJ. His finesse and overall presence is really unmatched even today.

For me, watching MJ play is like The Creation of Adam, God touched MJ with all the talent of basketball. 80s/90s basketball was the toughest basketball, now you have the " you touched me, I cry' league

The perfect player.SKILL SET A+. Athleticism A+. KILLER INSTINCT A+ WORK ETHIC A+ Defender A+.Leader A+. There is no debate with Mike. There is no neck to neck with him.Players from different eras all UNANIMOUSLY voted MIKE the G.O.A.T by a 75 % margin!

LAST SPOT ON THE TEAM? MJ, NO QUESTION. I am a Chicago native, and I watched ALL of them play. MJ is on a completely different level. Even Bird and Magic knew it. Like all of us "old-Heads" keep saying, you had to be there live. KZfaq videos and highlights are going to show the full picture. What year was his best team?!? : The 1996, 72-10 "Revenge Tour" squad. Nobody's touching that team.

Watching MJ play was this. You got a plate of food and 3 quarters into the game your food is cold and you just remembered you had a plate. Your food is cold, but if the Bulls are down, you not gonna leave because you know the 4th Quarter is Jordan time where MJ does even more amazing shit than he was already doing. After the game, you food was still cold because you had to run outside and try that shot you just seen MJ do. Multiply that by 82 games and playoffs over 15-16 seasons (including Wizards years). Also, he left basketball because his Dad had gotten killed and he lost his love for the game since his Dad went to every game. Love the video and good to see a Sista doing a vid like this. Larry Legend is and always will be Larry Legend though lol.

Seeing MJ in person and watching him live was NOT the same as TV. It was like seeing God play. I was 15 yrs old and then again at 17 I watched him drop 55 points. He looked faster and ran faster in person than it seemed on TV. He looked like he was playing against high schoolers in person than on TV, it looked like it was just too easy for him to win. At that time Chicago fans suggested to just use 4 Bull players vs their 5 opponent's to make things a little more evenly competitive.

Bill Russell and MJ are my two way goats. Bird was all time great too definitely in my top 10.

used to call it the greatest show on earth and that is the 100% true you have to realize every time Jordan played. You didn’t know whether he was going to have a 40.9 or a 60.9 and you just never knew but it was amazing. I actually really got a chance to watch one game when I was visiting my cousin in Chicago I wasn’t high score of the time and it made me want to be him.

Michael Jordan is and always will be the G.O.A.T. No one has or had better talent, skills, or was or is more athletic than Michael Jordan. No player is close to him.

14:01 The Jam video with Jackson was definitely a thrill ride for the eyes. Jackson ON HIS KNEES trying to get Jordan to moonwalk is something you’re not gonna forget. Jordan said, “Don’t tell nobody. Show me some moves….”, Jordan said😄😄😄♥️♥️👊🏿#Amen

Watching Mj live everyone in the building, everyone watching around the world all the coaches and players on bout teams knew who was getting the ball and yet he couldn't be stopped! Look at the faces of the Utah jazz fans in his last game as a Bull ! They were not stunned or surprised they knew ! They showed no emotion they had excepted their fate! Blank stares .

For those too young to have seen him play; MJ was special and the Bulls were must-see TV. He was always gonna do something to blow your mind. Getting chills just watching his highlights. #GOAT

The reason for him retireing and going to Baseball was, his father was murdered and he always wanted MJ to play Baseball, because he was a Baseball player himself when he was young.

All done with hand checking and no defensive 3 seconds. Which makes it even more incredible

Ok when he beat the NBA all-star team when he was on the US Olympic team (which was made up of college kids) I'm not a basketball fan but I still remember being shocked that could even happen. The best in the NBA losing to college kids. Then I because an MJ fan.

anytime you can get the goat on your team you are going to have great time I watch the man when he was in college and this young man have been blessed by the good god so what you see is what God have blessed him with

The GOAT in action!🐐 From Russia with love!💪✌

No debate baby sis. The eye test alone should tell you. Jordan would average 50+ today. Softer league with soft rules now. No handchecking or anything. Even Larry Bird said "Jordan was just better than all of us". Pull it up. It's on the tube. Scoring Champion(33 pre game)/Defensive player of the year (over 100 blocks and 200+ steals) and MVP in the same season. First team to 3 peat. Retired for 2 years then came back and 3 peated again. Would have been 8 in a row. Nuff said. You should also check out Jordan "one of the best defenders ever" if you still are unclear about the best, most spectacular player ever seen. I knew he was the best when the college Allstars played the NBA all Stars in about 6 games and Jordan dominated the NBA All Stars winning the games. You can check that out too. There is a reason Labron wears 23. Kobe and Magic are two players mixtapes you should see. Is Bron greater than them ? I don't think so. Labron is the latest not the greatest.

Also, I appreciate you making the MJ video being 3/4 of the screen unlike a lot of the reaction videos where the person reacting to the video is 3/4 of the video and we have to focus on a small corner of the screen to actually see the MJ footage video.

It was an amazing time! His grace and agility. His lay up package, the fact he actually played defense, his competitive ferociousness. His legacy is untouchable IMO.
