1984 as a amateur, the legend begins.

Don’t forget Bob Knight was Isiah’s former coach and he said Jordan was the greatest he’s ever seen, which must have further fuelled Isiah’s jealousy.

Just proves all he EVER needed was a team

Damn, unlimited fouls. Thats crazy, good thing nobody got shot.

Thomas is still sore over that until today. And it’s totally unheard of to have a rookie dominate the best players in the world in a series!

And as time goes on, Isaiah thought he would take the torch from Magic and Bird, but it was JORDAN who took over the league!

Isiah Thomas was jealous as hell. Of Michael Jordan.

This started the flame.

Oscar always hating on Jordan this is probably where it started

This was a great great video. Everyone tries to examine the freeze out, this clearly was the real reason. By 92' the college kids could play but they were in awe of the dream team. In 84' the college kids completely destroyed the NBA players, interesting.

Thank you for hitting every important point here my brother....perfectly said!

Jealousy is real Oscar and Isaiah.

MICHAEL JEFFREY JORDAN #23 THE 🐐

I've watched that 85 all star game numerous times,& i didn't see a freeze out.Mike got his touches & Isiah fed him the ball quite a few times!...In this video it's great to see how great MJ was! Magic,Larry,& Isiah on the same team & he beat them as a rookie

G.O.A.T = MICHAEL JEFFREY JORDAN #23

When they are not as good as you and when they know they cant guard you or beat you...they start fouling you and start to play dirty! Michael Jordan was already the best in the world. That's why i don't respect those 1989 and 1990 so called Champion Detroit Pistons teams. There is playing hard tough real man defense at the pro level but there is something else that is totally different when you start fouling on purpose to hurt the guy on the other team just because they are better than you. That is what those Bad Boy Detroit Pistons were. Im glad Thomas was left off of the Dream Team!

Great research didn’t kno bout these scrimmage games

This is great!

Great video and points of view 💯💥

Simply unbeatable...

Good job brother!

MJ was up and commuting Nova All of the NBA was put on notice.

Jordan...the beginning and the end.

This why people say they were trash back then. All they wanted to do was fight when a player who was busting they ass couldn’t be stopped by actually playing basketball

We need to thank Oscar, Dunleavy AND the Bad Boys for creating the GOAT.

can I know which espn doc the footage is from? would like to watch the whole episode thanks!

They should’ve put this in the doc

What doc do these clips come from? Great stuff!

1984 was the second coming

Mean while Jumpman shoes will still be walking all over Chicago and #11’s little ol heart ha😃

I have this watch this game over and over , and see no sign of a so call freeze out.

Bobby was right

Don’t matter now,… 50 years from now nobody gunna remember who little #11 was

Of course there was a "freeze out" initiated by Thomas and supported by Johnson and the rest. The plot twist occurs after the playoffs when Johnson and Thomas have a fall out and Ervin befriended Jordan and told him that it was Zeke's plan all along to freeze him out thus the "Big Payback" after MJ took over and became the face of the NBA and basically told them that " if Isaiah plays on the Dream Team then I'm not playing." This is the reason they picked Laetner, and to add further injury to insult Jordan knew Christian was from his Alma Mater and never played one game in the NBA. I know Jordan and Magic concocted that one as a way to get under Thomas' skin.

That is obvious Mr Isiah Thomas involved and also was the one who created (FREEZE OUT ) and paid the price because I was watching the Documentry called THE LAST DANCE , Isiah Thomas never forget his disqualified of member of the Dream Team not only him also Magic Johnson and George Gervin all they were jealous this young rising star and all they were involved because of the attention and Jordan never give up what he did to NBA as well as his best career l

from which doc is this?

I don’t believe this proves resentment on Isaiah Thomas’ part. Jordan destroyed all of them during those scrimmage games: Magic, Isaiah, Bird, etc. I’d have to view the ‘85 Allstar game again to determine if Isaiah was purposefully freezing out Jordan. Remember...Isaiah was the starting point guard for the East and Jordan wasn’t the only star on that team Isaiah would have to get the ball 🏀 to. Also, what purpose would Isaiah have to conspire with Magic 🤷🏽‍♂️ when Magic played for the West? In addition, I don’t buy this jealousy over Jordan becoming beloved to Chicago argument. He was just as beloved in Detroit. So why would he begrudge Jordan for it when he doesn’t even play for that team 🤷🏽‍♂️?

Mike burn them so hot. They freeze him

Check this out.....www.freep.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2020/05/05/michael-jordan-isiah-thomas-the-last-dance-detroit-pistons/3085621001/ For me, I don't think both hated each other outside the sport. Most likely it was the media's responsibility for making it bigger than it seems to create a fiasco, both understood their roles and admire each others skill set.

Thomas a hater from childhood mj just took over

Dont forget.....this is basketball and MJ is from THE SOUTH!!!! Dem YANKS couldn't TAKE IT!!!! #FACTSSSS

Yea Bro you on to something Magic Johnson helped freeze Jordan out from the opposing team.....WTF.......that's what he's supposed to do......Watch the game, Mike was turnt up fumbling the ball.....Bricking shots........He admitted to being star struck.........He was a Damn Rookie and got treated as such!!!

To day all the players are big cry baby's

Isiah Thomas is the GOAT I don't care what you say or anyone else real talk.

This is bullshit! Why didn't he just take the game over then like kobe did during his so caslle greeexe piy game.

Today's nba is fucking weak.

IT was just mad cause MJ was better than him and thats why when the bad Boy Pistons came alone they beat the Bulls from 1987 to 1990 so by 91 IT said don't shake the Bulls hands after the game cause they were swept and he got mad that Michael Jordan ended the Pistons championship dynasty by that time the Pistons legs were old and Jordan and the Bulls came of age and start getting better in the long run the Pistons made the Bulls compete and MJ just wanted to be on the same floor and spot light as the other All stars in 85 IT felt that Jordan was going to take the spotlight and be a show boat Magic had nothing to do with Jordan's freeze out

They froze Isaiah Thomas out because he was sleeping with magic and Jordan was jealous

Wait WHAT?!?! College All-Star team beat NBA all-stars.. multiple times! That’s crazy. Don’t fucking tell me ever again the league was better during Jordan’s time. A college All-Star team today would get blown out by 50pts by the fuck Cleveland Cavs in today’s NBA
