Also, this isn't to bring up the GOAT debate - But I've heard a lot of people say that nobody has ever had higher expectations and pressure coming into the NBA than Lebron. However, LBJ was a good high school player. MJ won a NCAA championship, beat the NBA All Stars 8-0, and won an Olympic gold medal. Now let's talk about some expectations and pressure coming into the NBA.
Magic said at those Olympics said Jordan was the best player in the NBA. Before his first NBA game. You don't here other stars in other leagues say shit like that about any rookie.
11 rebounds, 9 assists, and 19 points in TWELVE minutes? For a college player to lead a team of college kids against NBA All-Star players (Magic, Bird, Isaiah Thomas, etc) and win all 8 games is CRAZY.
You do understand that there has NEVER really been a question, right??? It's on film!!! MJ is the G.O.A.T!!!!! Did you notice he never complained about the bad boy pistons??? MJ was a warrior!!!
@@patriciasmith8358Isiah’s dirty gameplay is the reason he wasn’t on the Dream Team!!!….The whole world saw how he had his teammates rough up Jordan and his bulls teammates, especially when he lead them to walk off early when they got blown out of the game! MJ told the Fiba president that they can pick Isiah but he won’t be on that squad, they ended up choosing Air Jordan!
There are only four players in the history of the NBA who won the scoring title, MVP, Finals MVP, made it to 1st team all-defense and lead the playoffs in scoring. These players are MJ, MJ, MJ and MJ. That says it all.
MJ showed a relentless attitude for winning, and he had an attitude that carried the city of Chicago as he showed the league he can make clutch game winners, clutch free throws, and creative shots that defied the human mind…not many players can say they dunked on Dr.J, Kareem, Bird, Magic,Olajuwon, Mutombo, Ewing, Mourning, Malone, and Kobe…MJ can.🎤🔥✌️👽
MJ is the only player to make the free throw line dunk while dribbling the ball all the way to his take off point…Dr. J carried the ball while taking it to the basket…both were great dunkers and legends of the game!
Great reaction young fella. Magic Johnson was my favorite player but I gotta give credit where it's due. First player to have 200 steals and 100 blocks. And did it multiple times. (Scottie Pippen dod it too once). Nobody has had a 3000 point season since Jordan. It's easier to score today,(less physical and rule changes like no hand checking and more) and still nobody has done it. He played all 82 games . Load management was not in his vocabulary. The NBA and ex players are still eating off of what Jordan did. Great reaction. Yo. Check out Roy Jones Jr "Perfect fighter"..
Development and Growth is part of why kids stayed in college. It was typical to stay at least 3 years to ensure a well rounded game going into the pros. In other situations the rules have not always allowed kids to go straight to the pros out of high school or even after one year. Those rules also had to deal with trying to make sure kids were mature enough to be pros, from handling money to being responsible enough to handle all the requirements of being a professional outside of actual basketball. It's why the league looked so much older back in the day, dudes were already 21, 22 years old when entering the league as opposed to 18, 19. Moses Malone got in during one of those times they allowed early entry. Kobe, KG, Jermaine O'Neil all got in during relaxed rules. Mike was still a question mark after 2 years. After 3, they knew it was time.
In the first part of his career until 1996, he had a "low" salary and practically earned 10 times more from advertising. Only from 1996 did he have a salary that for a long time remained a record: 30 million.
You cannot compare today's playoffs or regular season PPG with 3 pts and lack of defense with that era. The best proof that there is actually no defense in today's NBA is to compare the average number of points this season with the one in the NBA finals when they made a special effort in defense to win the title. The result: in most cases, the losing team did not exceed 100 points.
They didn't had to go to College, but the league was way tougher than today back then. They would have rosted a kid like that, torn them apart and thrown the pieces into the stands.
Todays NBA is just missing something especially on Defense the players show a “lackluster” or lack of Competitive spirit because your not willing to go all out or do whatever it takes to win & I Get young people get tired of hearing all the “yesteryear” talk & the “OLD HEADs” tired of how they’ve evolved so much…… But ask yourselves if we’re talking about the Elite of the Elite athletes of the world 🌎 combined with the fact human evolution doesn’t change much in a 10-20yr span ask yourself how much more evolved would you need to be if You inherently aren’t willing to do everything I’m willing to, like I’m the willing to die out here in order to win u gonna need more than a 20yr EVO & that just goes for the Basic NBA player in General the average NBA player has evolved YES! But their isn’t a Single player in the game that can say they’re just a more evolved athlete than JORDAN
10:20 - Because intelligent people want to educate themselves about the world, business, finance, politics, engineering, the law, the arts, the sciences and humanity, so that they can continue to excel in life beyond their physical talents, which NEVER last forever.🤔 If you suffer a career-ending injury before you "get that bag", what are you gonna do without an education?🤷♂️ 6 and 0 🏀 #23 🐐 M.J. 💯🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 G.O.A.T. 🤛
With today's defense in the NBA, someone will score over 63 points. MJ did it while being hand checked, elbowed, pushed, etc. Today's NBA all but escorts players to the basket! Chicago Bull's fan since the start (1966-67), born and raised in Chi-town, but I no longer watch the NBA.
Fam Mike and the bulls put smoke on them Detroit pistons. Now you heard Isaiah say that he was the best basketball player he ever seen. That’s because Detroit beat them two years in a row, but once Mike and them got over the hump on the documentary you watching now Isaiah started hating on him, he always say that you know that he was better than that, that’s why him and Mike fell out. Isaiah was very jealous, and Mike was shitting on some real ball players out there.
Six and oh, in the finals six MVPs in the finals Michael Jordan, Chicago Bulls were undefeated when it mattered Michael Jeffrey Jordan is God for real!!!!!!!
Not to mention Mike wasn’t a consistent three point shooter or even a great one, all midrange / dunks / acrobatic layups/ free throws averaging 37 🤦🏽♂️😂 !!! Just adds to the testimony of his airness ☁️ ☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️
Young buck, bill lanbear could just redicks dad. That’s how much they are alike. Both think they are better than everyone else and Isaiah Thomas follow behind that white man like a puppet and that’s exactly why he didn’t make the dream team. God don’t like people to act ugly man. He was not on the team, but everybody else was him was boys Isaiah magic used to kiss on the cheek before each game before they played each other. You gotta go back and watch some new games man the whole games Lakers, Philly, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Orlando Magic back win Jake into his career type stuff look up Dr. Jay tapes
The reason I always pick Mj and Kobe over lebron is that those 2 never needed to create a super team with all stars and look where it got him still fewer championships and more losses than Mj and Kobe I think it’s because Lebron isn’t a 2 way player anymore or as a joke the monstars took Lebron talent. Joking aside. The best players went to college to better themselves and they actually listened to their coach what would Lebron be like if he listened to his coaches plus those that don’t go to college their egos go through the roof I think that lebron would be a 2 way player still if he went to college because he would not care about stats because in my eyes someone who cares more about stats then winning championships will always be 21 or lower on my top 20
He did all of his damage in 13 short seasons. Another thing is all of his highlights can't be seen because he made them multiple times on a nightly basis.
Ncaa added the 3pt lin in 86... Jordan never played with a 3pt line until he reached the nba...this is why he, and many others, didn't shoot them much Edit...I did just look it up...there was some conferences with a line prior to 86...86 was the year every college had one....and I saw that the ACC did have a line as close as 17ft at one point but couldn't find when that started so that could be a 3pt line but I'll let someone old enough to remember first hand to confirm
I was there at Grant Park on their second three peat. Yeah, my brother that shit is true. The people are real. I’m only saying because I was there man I miss Michael Jeffrey Jordan. God bless Michael the greatest ever.
45:28 - I don't think it's cause they're lazy.. I feel like a lot players today are just insecure and afraid of criticism.. they're afraid of losing and being made fun of.. it's the same with defense as well, they're afraid to challenge dunks and be on posters so often times they just move out of the way without even attempting to contest.
I agree to a degree but that in itself shows a “lackluster” or lack of Competitive spirit because your not willing to go all out or do whatever it takes to win & I Get young people get tired of hearing all the “yesteryear” talk & the “OLD HEADs” tired of how they’ve evolved so much…… But ask yourselves if we’re talking about the Elite of the Elite athletes of the world 🌎 combined with the fact human evolution doesn’t change much in a 10-20yr span ask yourself how much more evolved would you need to be if You inherently aren’t willing to do everything I’m willing to, like I’m the willing to die out here in order to win u gonna need more than a 20yr EVO & that just goes for the Basic NBA player in General the average NBA player has evolved YES! But their isn’t a Single player in the game that can say they’re just a more evolved athlete than JORDAN
The only way Larry, or Isiah, or whoever could beat Jordan was when Jordan was on a garbage lottery Bulls with no help. So they could focus their entire defensive scheme on solely stopping Jordan. The Team USA Jordan was on in 1984 was actually pretty good.. it had Patrick Ewing, Chris Mullen, Alvin Robertson, etc.
See, Scottie pippen wasn’t the key, as long as u give MJ good role players, MJ will win. If MJ like what Lebron did went to New York team up with Ewing he will dominating the entire 80s and 90s.
You shawtys out there y’all need to do some research “ it’s no excuse for not knowing these things all you have to is ask google we had to go to the library wtf🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Thank you for noticing that Jordan and team USA did actually defeat Larry Bird and the NBA All-Star team before Jordan ever stepped onto an NBA court. And that's no disrespect on Larry Legend. It just gets tiresome hearing over and over how MJ didn't beat Larry in the playoffs... when we all know Larry and his team of Hall of Fame players against Jordan and "The traveling cocaine circus" was a foregone conclusion from jump.
That's why after the very FIRST time Bird faced MJ in the NBA he told a Boston Globe reporter "That guy is going to be the greatest ever - you just watch." Not only did Larry become a legend, he also became a prophet.
Probably cuz most people have heard of Hakeem but everyone is like "who is Sam Bowie???" 😆 Outside of this old draft footage i don't think i ever heard of Sam Bowie?
@@--ArcAngel-- Also Dream is a Great enough player that even looking back People can say OK 👍🏾👌🏾& especially knowing that back then NBA Teams built around Bigs It wasn’t until JORDAN it changed nobody believed that teams could win w/o A substantial Big or that No SG or Scoring Champ could lead a team to win 🏆s Until JORDAN lead the Bulls to 🏆 🏆 🏆 🏆 🏆🏆

Still holds the record for most points in a Playoff game. 63
