Ewing: Y'aight?
Jordan: nods head
good sportsmanship
Even though their rivals. They have to have sportsmanship
That alone made me like Ewing more
that’s two MEN understanding that outside of their game they’re both still people.
@@jamesleonard1967 That 92 dream team got really close. I'm sure he respected Jordan regardless but they had a close bond before this.
You noticed that too?
I know why Jordan walked away from that fall. He actually is one of the aliens in Space Jam.

Wasnt his fault
The producer did like a copyright thing
4:20 - I genuinely thought you was gonna tell me he missed that shit.
Yep
Nine - Forty nice time
Hahahahaha
Jordan woulda been throwing hands if that missed
420 nice
I've been watching the clip of the fall over and over again, I think the way Jordan choose to land his body saved him from severe injury. As soon as his foot touched the ground, he knew it wasn't right so he decided to land on his back, which resulted in his head hitting the ground hard (but that wasn't as serious), and lifted his waist so that his almost twisted foot didn't have to bare that much of weight. I think luck is one thing, but it's his experience and intelligence that saved him.
You're right! Also saw the noticed it
Great observations
Exactly 👏🏼
This all takes place in 0.1-0.2 seconds. No human being is capable of making a decision and acting on it in this ammount of time. Its just not possible. It was pure and utter luck. Thats all.
It’s like what Ja Morant did a week or two ago. He knew that having his leg get clipped under him could end his career
This entire video can/could be summarized by just:
"Man's built different"
Mentally
LMAO
Just imagine that in another reality we would be watching a video called "what if Jordan never got injured"
Damn that’s crazy 😱
He literally carried the 1986 bulls to the playoffs. Imagine him playing that entire season
Maybe in a parallel universe
Just imagine deez nuts
thats deep
When he paused I thought bill missed
J 12 same
That would have been so sad 😂
@@germagent5301 MJ would've beat his ass 😂
Swear
sure can make a basic moment look legendary
But imagine MJ came back from his injury and we got to see Kobe and MJ play together...
That may happen if MJ still get injured but was out in the whole season and not his whole basketball career. Kobe probably be PG MJ SG and Scottie in his well his only position. 4-peat? Maybe since if MJ never leave The bulls because the team is goat and hey maybe he is still there until he retires
Phil Jackson tried to get Jordan to join him in LA in 1999. Imagine Jordan, Kobe, AND Shaq. But Jordan turned him down.
@Toby Lee Juarez Jackson said that Jordan was not yet ready to return. At the time Jordan actually believed that he would never return.
What makes you guys think they would get along? After all, Kobe & Shaq didn't. You guys forget about egos. That why Barkely, Pippen & Drexler never got anywhere.
@@marblemadness8870 pippen won 6 rings
I watched this game live, was a miracle that MJ got up. His conditioning played a major factor, thanks to his personal trainer.
Tim Grover analyses all of his star client's games. I wonder what his opinion of this game and this play was!! 🤔🤔🤔
best personal trainer to grace the nba keeping the best player to grace the nba from early retirement
His trainer was also one of Kobe’s trainers

Michael Jordan is such a monster I’ve never seen someone so dominant in any other sport. Players back then were lucky to have shared the court with him but unlucky because they never stood a chance.
you didn't see Wilt or Russell then
Sorry, my english is bad, im french. In our Country we had someone who is dominant in his sport (like that)

Any one who watched this game knew Wennington scored!
My dog.
Rick Perez that national televised game was on NBC regular TV, now u can watch on WEWS and the NBAFINALS if u don't have cable
J Dolo u exactly right, and we just have to adjust and adapt to this soft era of the mid 2010s going into 2020, its still enteraining basketball when the refs swallow there whistles by not calling ticky tack BS calls rather in a regular season game or the playoffs
Fun fact: not only did Jordan have one of the best strength/workout coach in the planet at the time, not only did that coach show him the importance of strengthening his legs and ankles, but he literally trained on HOW TO LAND to avoid injuries like the one you’re talking about here that could’ve happened. He let his head bounce on the ground on purpose to prevent a possible torn Achilles. So in hindsight this what if wouldn’t have happened for sure.
The way you expound on that is absolutely incredibly deep. I remember watching that game and would have never thought that that injury will change the landscape of the NBA that is truly a remarkable video
Starks game ending turnover clearly shows he hadn't recovered from MJ's crossover.
Still don't know how he was playing with broken shins 😂

I read this in Jimmy’s voice with his voice becoming more exaggerated with each item on the list
Knowing Jordan, he would probably come back healed next year and win 3 anyway.
You are not wrong
lmao if he did get injured and was out of the nba for like a year, after it would be over it he’d average 60 points no assists

“IF” this happened.. NBA wouldnt be this popular worldwide, it’ll had been just a “Sport”
True. Me and my dad would've never watched basketball. He watched basketball because of Jordan and continued to watch it because of him. I started because of Kobe. Jordan is basketball for us non-Americans.

😂😂😂 bruh said the Undertaker
Not just that but watch, his head is the second point of contact. I'd have been knocked out crying to mommy.
@@truththebestiknowit5091 think he got lucky and managed to pull his leg forward so it ended up flat , as for the head he kinda rolled onto in, as his bum hit first, but still a good knock..more worried about the knees, however Jordan was on another level in conditioning, simply through instinct and lots of fast twitch muscle fibers he managed to pull his leg forward just in time , probs learned from all the fouls he took on a reg basis.. you can see his muscularity is superior to most modern players , plus he was very symetrical for his height. He took care of his body, trained every part to be as strong as possible, we didn't see him injured often, his crazy endurance is part of his legacy, paid off against the knicks that night for sure..
These story's of him only having his body treated in private, never showing weakness, jogging to the back after a game, and almost collapsing from pain once in the back with the trainers , but never showing weakness to anyone, guy probs had a team of physical therapists , and for sure he didn't take any heavy stuff to numb pain, or he'd be in limping these days..he walks fine..
@@planegaper I'm still crying to mommy if I go down like that ;-)
Fr people be saying its way more physical today then back the 😂
Great video! Mind blown about the potential injury. Never knew that nearly happened. Can you imagine Jordan injured in only his 5th game back from retirement and the biggest comeback ever?! The Kobe drafting was an added bonus and tantalizing 'what if' moment. Damn!
I can’t believe I missed this video. Such a masterpiece by the best analyst in the nba. Thanks Jxmy. Your content never ceases to amaze.
He's not called the black cat for nothing. Cats always land safely.
Peter Parker that's what they call Mr. June, but that was all mighty God sending 👼 to protect MJ on that play, there's been plenty of ackward falls by NBA players and some walked away injury free and others suffered castrophic injuries, Michael Jordan did suffer a broken foot and missed 64regular season games in the 1985-1986 NBA season, his 2nd year in the league and missed 21games in the 2001-2002season due to injury, but MJ was healthy for the majority of his career, especially from 1987 thru 1998, injuries are part of sports though, Hakeem #TheDream Olujawon, Michael Jeffery Jordan 🐐🐐
The god saved himself
nah he is the black jesus
Cats always land on there feet mj the goat
Barrion Brien just Jesus since he was already black
Jordan : scores 35 in the half
Me : oh, I do that too in MyCareer
He scored 69 on game on time mj if want he can do more his goat of game
I scored 103 in a my career game once 😂
My high in my career in 5 minute quarters is 79
bloorgusgoorge i scored 178 before or 170 something
I scored 90 points with an 83 overall
So, I'm a old head. I remember that game, that pass the BW. I love this. This was so well thought out and presented. Dude did his thing with this one.

Props for this video, I was hooked to the NBA in the 90s and didn’t know about this fall. MJ got right back up like nothing even happened. Love MJ.
Part of Michael’s goat status is being durable as hell. He took more than his share of big hits in an era that was much more physical and defensive than it is today. *GOAT* 🐐🔥🏀🇺🇸

Robert Weekes facts
Robert Weekes #facts u speaking, in the 2002-2003 NBA season in which was Mr. June last NBA season at 39 and turning 40years old, equally the 🐐 along wit Hakeem #TheDream Olujawon, Michael Jeffery Jordan averaged over 37mins of playing time while playing in all 82 regular season games for a young disfunctional Washington Wizards organization which started from the leadership of owner Abe Pollin, #restinparadise to the front office VP and GM and down to the players, that was a accomplishment along playing all 82, loadmanagement was not a topic among NBA players in those days, and trust and believe there is rapid P.e.d. performance enhancing drug use among all NBA players in 2019, commissioner Adam Silver and League officials only go after the young players and no star players, John Collins of the ATL Hawks, Deandre Ayton of the Phoenix Suns, 25game p.e.d. suspensions, just like MLB when Jose Canseco snitched out baseball and exposed it for p.e.d. use, the NFL,NHL,MLS,NBA,UFC,Boxing and all sports need be exposed for p.e.d.s.
BEATSIBANG truth
Robert Weekes yeah thats why lj is soo dominate defense isnt soft asf if he was in the 90s well no lj
The way MJ saved his leg was because he arched his back, and let his weight hit his head, not his leg
Edit: Thanks for 1k likes
He's better off with a plethera of leg injuries then entering a coma
hood gold medalist I’m not certain, but I believe the part of his head that he hit was not a weak point, so the most he could have happen to him was a moderately bad concussion. Obviously that’s bad, but it’s a lot better than the multiple knee and ankle ligament and tendon tears he likely would have sustained if he had taken all the force to his leg (not to mention any bones in his foot that were broken by the pressure).
I’d say arching his back there was the right move. I could be totally wrong though lmao
That and his conditioning that allows his body to take the fall and not be injured. Strong ACL and ligaments in legs prevent potential injuries from the same fall/twist. I know because my rehabbed ankle can now withstand a sprain like it's nothing.
This is just what I thought
WOW, didn’t realize there were medical professionals coming in here
When Shaq and Kobe sat down for an interview with each other, Kobe said that he wanted to go to the Bulls when Shaq went to the Heat.
Great video! Your knowledge is extensive. Love watching your stuff

That’s pretty gay.
@Splits OG
Why doesnt that make sense? Jordan pretty much retired with a injury. If he had a injury like that he surely would of called it quits. The bulls did have a 1st draft pick, and maybe they would of gone for a sg who knows, after jordan left the bulls organziation has been awful on picking players.
@Splits OG he turned 17 in 95. I'm literally one month younger than Kobe.
Peter Washington damn nigga you old g
This was an excellent video, brotha! Great way to use your research and your storytelling.
Hats off 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
I always felt that the number 45 was a special number for me. I bought the bulls 45 jersey that year too. loved playing pickup games with it on.

I don’t know why but I love Jimmy’s voice. He just has that perfect narrator voice
Jay Waz so no homo bro lol
I not only remember that fall, I have, throughout the years thought exactly the same "What if...?" you have put into this video with many of the same 'likely' scenarios including Utah/Malone GOAT inclusion, Penny Shaq Title, but you threw me for a loop on the Kobe scenario and boy... well, no need to say anything but "WOW! you may very well be right!" lol
THANKS SO MUCH! (for validating all of us who thought as you did by putting together such an excellent video.)
Great insight, there are times when you sort of brace for impact in a split second, from the replay I think that's exactly what happened here, he sort of arches his back to release the pressure on his ankle and lower leg, but who knows maybe all the strength training he was famous for in the off-season wasn't worth a darn and he just got lucky, and this wasn't the only time the other one was when he broke his navicular bone and came back early with no consecuences
If you look close you can actually see Patrick apologize and Jordan say “it’s okay” before he shoots the free throw
No, he didn't apologize, he mouthed the words "i got u"
Nope Patrick Said " U Ight"
No he said eat a dick
Max the Canadian haha
3:54 😂😂😂 I wasn’t ready
neither was bill lol
Dude, you are fucking insane. The data, the logic behind the thought processes, I mean; you really think about this shit and break it down. This was a wild video, especially being 37 and remembering all of those games like they were yesterday. Great take on it, really great take.

Proves modern players are made of sugar glass
I feel like Jordan didn't get injured because of his conditioning
I wouldn't say that conditioning has anything to do with blowing your knee out though. The MJ fell, was extremely awkward and could have easily lead to a career-ending injury. I think he just got really, really lucky.
Jared Rivera I think the fact that he has very strong flexible knees saved him its logical
Its because he's black
He works out his body to the fullest thats why every mucle in him we able to sustain that fall. He is saitama of NBA

Great conditioning and a really healthy and pliable body helped MJ. He must have been really flexible. Just shows what a great athlete he really was.
He trained not just to build muscles but also for flexibility and endurance. A lot of players do not do that nowadays because they are lazy, hence a lot of injuries
@@ReneParada MJ's trainer, Tim Grover, insists that there is no substitute for lifting real weights (not cables or bands) to build the proper foundation to perform and prevent injury. Through a certain weight training program, he also helped Kobe to reduce his knee problems.
Jordan took ballet lessons for footwork and flexibility. It probably helped him out a lot in this instance.
It’s honestly incredible how his body was so strong and healthy, considering his habits of drinking beers at golf courses before games, smoking cigars, staying up late gambling, and playing 18-36 holes of golf before games. If any NBA players did that back then or today, they wouldn’t be nearly as effective. But Jordan was just built different.
This Jxmy guy knows how to tell stories. Well done as always.

True. I'm not too surprised though that MJ recovered. I always believed MJ took care of himself due to serious conditioning and knowing how to take a fall if necessary to avoid injury.
Kobe wouldn't have been the Kobe we know. Michael being in the league resulted in Kobe pushing himself to be what he eventually became.
Yo jxmy your my favorite youtuber and this is my favorite video. Your the GOAT youtuber
This guy is a damn good narrator. Real spit! I've already watched this video 8 times. 😂🤣😂🤣🤷
He hit his head becus in that split second all he thought about was saving his leg. The human body is so amazing sometimes
Yeah you can tell If he didn't let his head hit, his knee would've been jacked.
calebd512 nothing but God,
Mj actually saved himself hitting his head he was pushing up his body saving the leg
Ather Chavez I'm glad someone else saw that
Ather Chavez greatest Athlete ever. Strong like Bull
Borris Bozeman he definitely felt it coming but that awareness is Goat level
You're right. Knowing how to fall safely is an important skill in sports like these. His body saw the injury coming and reacted to prevent it.
I'm glad that didn't happen the way this video is seeing it.
@JxmyHighroller speaking of The GOAT you are TRULY the G.O.A.T. for the this video
9:40 might be the craziest basketball chart ever. So many legends that could've been, except for MJ.
Reggie Miller got another chance against the Lakers only to get iso’d by Kobe
Michaels seasons with the wizards were still at an elite level
Yeety McFly IV and MJ averaged over 37 mins a game in both seasons, missed 21 in the 2001-2002season due to injury but played all 82games in the 2002-2003season at 39yrs old and turned 40yrs old on February 17th of that year after all-star break, load management was never talked about back then like players do in sports in 2019, wit all the new studies and technology on how athletes can stay healthy and play longer and improved nutrition nowadays and there's p.e.d. performance enhancing drug use rapidly among NBA players, particularly star players, and they load management, no new era player should ever be compared to the players of 1970s, 80s, 90s, and early 2000s interms of physicality and toughness and fundamentals and skill, period, and i embrace today's NBA players
Por Vang right, most of them grow up playing together in AAU tournaments and prep schools around the country, and when they reach the NBA, it ain't the same competitive nature, because they all buddy,buddy, trust me, the 1980s,90s,early 2000s is and remains the most complete skilled fundamentally sound, toughest era of NBA history

ONE OF THE GREATEST “WHAT IFS” VIDEOS I’VE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME, AND IT’S PRETTY MUCH TRUE....... VERY TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at how he arched his back. Didn't drop the weight into his legs joints.
Controlled
rip trap sax... you will be missed 🎷💀
I deal still hear it. It's engraved in my head!
I’m so glad this is hypothetical, as a native to chicago.
You would've gotten Kobe though.
The way he was talking I thought Bill was gonna miss
The way Bill played I thought he was going to miss.
3:39 watch closely and MJ literally broke Starks’ ankles

everyone saw that I think it’s pretty obvious
6:48
"No wonder he's the GOAT.. The way he fell was like how a cat would try it's righting reflex. To be able to reflexively do that means that he jumped to the point that he not only perfected his landing but that it was deeply engraved instinctively in his body."
Without MJ there would be no Kobe or Lebron. Kobe modeled his entire game after MJ and Lebron has been chasing MJ his entire career
That's a deep segment. Well done bro
