If you watch enough Jordan highlights... you'll notice a trend especially in his early years when he had young legs and full of energy. What he does when falling back on defense... he tries to linger around hallf court or keep his eye on the ball movement... a lot of times the other guys fall asleep and focus on setting up their offense not expecting anyone around half court to snatch a quick easy steal (people get fatigued and complacent). While everyone's momentum is transitioning to the other side of the court... MJ plays a safety position and will snatch an easy steal before the guys even notice. This is how a lot of his early fast breaks started. He didn't celebrate because he knew every single time that ball was on the court he had a chance to get it because he was faster in every aspect of the game. Like a legendary quarterback knowing where everyone is at all times and knows where everyone is going before they get there. Nowadays they let point guards get it to half court without any contesting unless late in the game.
Thank you, Makc. He did and he was. Always looking to improve. He steadily increased his range, became a deadly fallaway jump shooter, an absolute menace to try to score against and a fine off ball defender as well. No doubt his will to win, fire, rubbed off on his teammates. The ones that didn't? They were gone or hardly played.
Bill Russell on Jordan - "I cannot imagine anyone playing any better" Jerry west on Jordan - I hate to say it's not a Laker but Michael Jordan. He's been the greatest player I've ever seen. And I'm probably a harsh judge of talent in the sense that I admire players that are really good defensive players and really good offensive players. i can give you tons of nba greats saying mj is the greatest from bob cousy , sam jones, george mikan, dave bing, elgin baylor, magic johnson , larry bird, nate thurmond , dave cowens, bill sharman , lenny wilkens, domique wilkins, shaq,david robinson lebron james, kobe bryant , tracy mcgrady, paul pierce, kevin garnett, and many more. see even the great nba players of before and after considered Michael Jordan to be the greatest they have ever seen play basketball.
yes i know they are old but even Lebron and kobe said Mike is the Greatest to play the game what matters is this are great players who knows the game more than us and for them to say that Mj is the Best that they saw playing basket ball that means a lot! but man lmao when i saw your name "The Moving Pick Allows Curry to Brick" i almost fart with that one but curry is a great shooter and we can't deny that.
Andrei Donato Right now in my opinion MJ is still the greatest ever. But, also in my opinion LeBron James will be the greatest. He isn't even close to done either.
will that is your opinion i can't change that but for me it is hard to put lebron over mj in my opinion because of the melt down he had against the mavs i like lebron also and i'm a lebron fan also but you can't Deny that meltdown we can't. yes Mj has a poor playoff run before pippen we can't deny that also but we can't deny also that he has no teammates then and his teammates before pippen was cracks heads and even before pippen... mj never had a melt down in any playoffs runs he had zero that only means he doesn't have enough help and at that time the east has the champions like the boston and pistons the east was a tough conference it is like when lebron went to the finals and face the spurs and got sweep is that lebrons fault No! because he doesn't have enough help but in the heat and mavs series we ca't make excuses for that we can't! and people always say ok mj never had a winning record in the playoffs before pippen will lebron never also have a winning record before larry hughes came to cavs so should i say larry hughes is the reason why lebron has a winning record? no they both need help to win. but let me say this mj won a ring without any all-star in 1991 pippen was not an all-star in 1991 and when pippen became an all-star Michael never lose in the nba finals Never. You know i would rather see lebron recruit players to go to the cavs rather than him joining the heat so that people will not hate lbj for joining the heat before he has the power but yes he is not done yet and we as fans don't know what the cavs management can pull off like getting another superstar who knows that can help lebron. and mj change the league because before no one believes that a guard can be the player that will get them a chip michael did that 6 times beacause the leeague before was a league for centers michael is the first one who one a chip without any great bigman and that is hard to do no one believes that a leading scorer can win a chip Michael did it 6 times they said michael is just a scorer he won DPOY he recorded triples when he was assign to play the pg mj proved that he can do everything that is the reason why it is so hard for many including me to not say mj is the greatest but that is only my opinion brother. and let me add nobody expects that the bulls will win a three peat back then because the suns has a better overall team than the bulls in 93 the bulls only had mj without mj averaging 40 plus points i think the bulls would have lose in that series it is like the cavs only have lebron. but again that is only my opinion thanks brother. I'm sorry if my sentence is not that good english is not my first language sorry about that
Andrei Donato Yup just remember how quickly LeBron has gotten his stats. Also, honestly the main reason why see him going the best ever is he will no doubt be in the TOP 5 ALL TIME in both points scored and assist. That is absolutely unbelievable. I mean come on, a pass first foward like LeBron James also is the fastest EVER to 25,000 and 30,000 points. Also will be in the top 5 ever in assist. If LeBron James wasn't pass first he could no doubt average 35 a game. And don't forget what a great coach can do particularly the greatest ever in Phil Jackson. LeBron had Horrible coaches his first 10 seasons in the league not the greatest coach ever. Not faulting MJ just saying. Also, LeBron Carried sacks of potatoes I mean terrible teammates, to the Finals. I can't say that about MJ. Also, LeBron did average 36ppg, 13rpg, and 9apg during the 2014-2015 Finals against the Warriors, a top 3 team of all time. I mean come on MJ didn't face an all time great team in my opinion at any point in his career In the Finals. Not all time great. LeBron went against these Warriors 3 times probably four this year. This team has 4 FUTURE HOF'ERS not including Iggy which will probably be one. MJ never versed a team in the Finals with 5 future hof'ers that's a fact. But hey you ain't go wrong with MJ. He hasn't surpassed him yet in my eyes but it's damn close.
+Paolo Inigo My ass he is the goat. Facts don't support that statement. I'm not everybody. I'm a leader not a follower. I have my own mind. You should try it?
Omar Thomas either you're just trying to stir shit or you're a dip shit - everyone who knows the game knows MJ is the GOAT I'm denying Russell's greatness but you seem a bit idiotic with your comments
I was in high school in the late 90s, but growing up watching and learning from what he did helped me earn best defensive player my jr and sr years. You gotta love his game, all around.
The one and only G.O.A.T. I fell sorry for kids these days who try to justify their existence by pretending that their manufactured superstar is even half the player.
EVERYBODY MUST KNOW THIS INFORMATION ABOUT JORDAN ITS BEEN LONG ENOUGH!!! If you want to understand why he is the goat watch my video explaining the equation Michael+Jordan = 3 6 9 ruclips.net/video/SqMDVQzkRlQ/видео.html Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete EVER!

Nikola Tesla said "If you only knew the magnificence of the numbers 3 6 and 9, you would have a key to the universe." I believe Michael Jordan discovered that key, or somebody or something else discovered it for him.
Most people are bad, some are good, very few are great, but only one is the greatest and you're looking at him. The best offensive player ever, one of the best defensive players ever and LITERALLY God in the playoffs. Simply GOAT.
Yep. I've seen Mike, Kobe, Lebron and Westbrook play live, Jordan before and during his prime, and none of these are faster than Jordan while maintaining control of the dribble.
What makes MJ the greatest defender who ever played in basketball is for various reasons. He could lock down his opponent 1 vs 1 defense which avoids having an open player on the opposing teams and MJ could still score big points. He is a great team defender by anticipating the passing lanes and those behind the back shot blocks from bigs. He puts in so much pressure on the defensive end to stop him coz they will end up in a poster coz MJ finishes strong to the basket with grace and passion. The bigs always have an advantage with blocks category but MJ does everything from being the greatest on-ball defender and help defender.
Wow. Among the many YT compilation vids about MJ, this single-handedly shows why he was, is, and will be the Greatest Of All Time. Yes, kids, I spelled out GOAT for ya’ll.
The small ball style and pick n roll/pop and drive and kick offense of today's game will not be a big problem to Jordan and the Bulls back then. Pippen, Jordan, and Harper all have high backetball IQ and no matter what ghost picks, or stacked/staggered picks you make, they can easily adjust to it and have the stamina and durability to play the whole game, every game. of course the opposing teams and players these plays are better 3 point shooters, but the game averages are still the same. If Derozan and Kawhi can be the top pplayers in today's NBA, how much more will Jordan be.
Jordan is not just a 2way great player he's a defender offensive player and a game orchestrator he's basically a 3way player most of the time he can play all positions much much better! MJ23!👍👍👍

what the fuck man..strides like cat leaps like gazelle..lands like a feather so lightly and gracefully..this guy had the ginom for bb..the speed and change of direction.. the only other athlete i can think off is Carl Louis..
see this is the Jordan that's the goat. The Jordan that ran a 4.29 40 yard dash. The ESPN is sneaky. They like to only show 2nd three peat Jordan when he's slower and not the unstoppable Jordan. When he was human and not a alien from a foreign planet.
More Skittles I notice that too. I realize they trying hard to convince the public to forget about MJ and make lebron the goat but they gonna fail. The NBA didn’t make MJ. MJ made the NBA GLOBAL
More Skittles agreed and also some ppl believed that David Stern help Michael Jordan by watering down the league with the expansion of teams. That’s utter bullshit. MJ had 5 of the top ten worst of scoring supporting cast in the nba and that man carried his team and won. MJ truly the greatest.
Michael Jordan just intercepts to cut off the passing lanes and get in the open court. He was quick as a cat. He had ten steals in a game once. He led the NBA in steals three times. That leaning dunk after the steal @ 3:05 off of Sonics forward Xaiver McDaniel was insane.
MJ is 9 Time All Defensive First Team and the only players who are there with him is Kobe, Garnett and Gary Payton.. right now Lebron is 5th. Steals per game? MJ is like a point guard when it comes to steals cause he is 3rd behind John Stockton and Jason Kidd with 2,514 STL. That alone speaks volume how much MJ is a killer at both ends, from offensive to defensive skillsets.

Some great all around players, for some reason or another, get strangely recognized as All def . Walt Frazier, for one, never was a lock down defender, as he was inaccurately credited for. West and Maravich and Monroe used to regularly light him up big time. Sure, they did that to many and most defenders. But I recall his heyday and Don Chaney and Jerry Sloan were the real superb lock down defenders in that era. Frazier's main talent on D was stealing the ball and playing the passing lanes, much like star forwards Rick Barry & Julius Erving. 2 guys who were considered, decent, maybe even pretty decent, but never outstanding defenders. Clyde's D was more like Barry's and Erving's than Sloan's or Chaney's.
Am I the only human being ever to see Kareem Abdul jabbar play basketball? It's amazing how when folks mention the "greatest of all time" Kareem name never comes up! His body of work speaks for itself. Remeber, he was a 6 time league MVP. and the league's all time leading scorer.
If you've seen Kareem play, then you should also remember that one of his regular season MVPs came when he first joined the Lakers and the team finished under .500 that year. How many seasons should Jordan have won with his team being under .500???
Lebron has the luxury of pushing players when driving and not being called for the offensive foul. I remember years ago Kenny Anderson use to do the same and almost always got called for offensive foul.
Jorge Delgado I did too but LeBron average 40 a night AGAINST goldenstate in the finals and lost 4-2 next year won last year he average a triple double in the finals AGAINST a 73-9 team Let's be honest that's great but u talking 1good player LeBron had to go against a good team name me one team Jordan had to face with a 73-9 record I'll mail u a thousand bucks today
Who else did he have? Certainly not the overall cast Magic, Bird, Kareem, Wilt or Russell had. Pippen great, sure. Any other Bulls? Forget it. I don't count Rodman who was a great rebounder, but was barely involved in other areas.
Ryzon Nathan lmaooo but bird had hof player like worthy,kareem, and other great role players... And bird had hof parish,mchale,dennis Johnson, and other great role players as well.. and lebron had wade bosh love irving,..... Dont talk bball its so sad
@DaveyJones No one chokes harder than Lebron losing to an aging white dude Dirk or 38 yr-old has-been TD despite having DWade and Bosh helping him. G6-0T >> LeWannaBe. #NotEvenClose
Navaro Palm Lebron choke for a reason. you already know it😁 bcuz he's going back to Cleveland and bring the championship to the city😕😕😕 he can get 5 rings in Miami if he wants but he don't need it..
@DaveyJones Perhaps, just perhaps, the reason being he ain't Jordan-level 6-0 good. LOL. Let's face it, if we switch Lebron with Jordan we'd be talking 6 rings, maybe 7 or even 8 INSTEAD OF a 3-5 record.
My ass he was the greatest. Fake news. Facts don't support that statement. Michael Jordan didn't even start in high school. In college James Worthy was the Tarheels best player. In the pro's he didn't start winning until Magic, Bird, Dr. Jay and Isiah Thomas were old and retired. History don't lie. Believe it, accept it, it's reality. Boom. Also, he couldn't win without Pippin and Grant.
Well, wonder what Magic, Bird, Dr J, Isiah, even Wilt and Kareem (yes, even them) would have won with MJ's early Bulls teams? I'd say not a damn thing.
+Mick A Bill Russell has 11 NBA World Championships and Jordan has 6 NBA World Championships do the math? Bill Russell also won 8 NBA World Championships in a row. Jordan couldn't even come close. He will never top 11 NBA World Championships. History don't lie. You can take that to the bank.

That's dumb and stupid, that watered down era you name includes prime centers and forwards where everybody's heads are chop off going to the basket. The reason why kobe and shaq couldn't get past the 1997 western conference finals is because of the Utah Jazz, the team that loose to the Bulls twice. MJ is 9 time all defensive first team, Pippen is 8 time and Rodman 7 time.. That Power Trio destroyed a lot of Teams in the 90s. Magic is just 4yrs and Bird is 6 yrs older than MJ. They're not that old and washed up when MJ came in 84.
+paolo-1283 Shut your ignorant non knowing basketball ass up. Wash your ass and quit living in fantasy land. Jordan couldn't win in the 80"s fact. He only started winning when Magic, Bird, Kareem, and Isiah were getting old or retired. Facts. Jordan couldn't even start on his high school team. Facts. In college James Worthy was the main star at UNC. Facts. In the pro's the Pistons, Celtics, and 76'ers used to tapp Jordans ass before he won a NBA World Championship. Facts. Bill Russell has won 11 NBA World Championships. Facts. Jordan will never ever will nerve ever top that. Facts. Period. History don't lie. You can put your lips on that. Boom.
+paolo-1283 Who did Jordan really face? Charles Barkley a player who was fat out shape and couldn't win a NBA World Championship. John Stockton who couldn't even lift Jordan's nutsack. Drexler who isn't on the same level as Kobe, Durant, and Lebron. Who also couldn't win a championship until he joined a winning team. Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp who also couldn't win a NBA World Championship. Payton also went to another team to win a NBA World Championship. He also faced a old Magic Johnson not in his prime without Kareem and Cooper. Now you explain that. He won NBA Championships in the Watered Down Pepsi Generation Era. History don't lie.
Dude - why do you troll all the MJ videos? You are literally the first guy watching every single video. You say you hate him and he can't play which is just truly laughable and yet you watch nonstop. MJ would literally demolish the league and for you to draw parallels to Derozan because Demar plays a midrange game is laughable. I'm pretty sure you've never played a game in your life but your asinine obsession with hating on MJ either borders on idiocy or you're 12 years old. Not only would MJ literally destroy everyone, he'd get to the free throw line every single possession as he'd drive the basket with no big bodies in the middle. Today's game is a bunch of open court free wheeling basketball and he would literally be unstoppable. He'd retire out of boredom. He'd punish little boys like Stephanie defensively - literally punish him just like he did his daddy Dell Curry. Punish him.
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T first off Demar is not the athletic beast Jordan was. Jordan is a very intelligent player he'd fine a way to beat zone. Plus how many teams do you that play zone all game? Jordan was dropping 20ppg at 39yrs against zone defense. And defense was weak? Some of the greatest defense player's and team's played during Jordan era
Спорт
When he steal the ball and went full sprint and dunked it, he just sprint back on the defensive end, no celebration or flexing his muscle.
If you watch enough Jordan highlights... you'll notice a trend especially in his early years when he had young legs and full of energy. What he does when falling back on defense... he tries to linger around hallf court or keep his eye on the ball movement... a lot of times the other guys fall asleep and focus on setting up their offense not expecting anyone around half court to snatch a quick easy steal (people get fatigued and complacent).

And #MJ never flopped #IWannaBeLikeMike #GOAT
The most entertaining player on earth
And proficient and versatile and on both ends and scariest in clutch time and ...
Agility, speed, power + stamina was amazing and he always work on developing of skills.
Thank you, Makc. He did and he was. Always looking to improve. He steadily increased his range, became a deadly fallaway jump shooter, an absolute menace to try to score against and a fine off ball defender as well.

EVERYBODY MUST KNOW THIS INFORMATION ABOUT JORDAN ITS BEEN LONG ENOUGH!!!
If you want to understand why he is the goat watch my video explaining the equation Michael+Jordan = 3 6 9
ruclips.net/video/SqMDVQzkRlQ/видео.html
Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete EVER! No wonder his life seems to operate based on the patterns of 3s.
All of his numbers are in 3s they are all divisible by the number 3, if the number added up equals 3 6 or 9 then the number is divisible by 3. all his numbers seem to add up to 3 6 or 9. this video explains why.
3 6 and 9 are the numbers that are coded in Michael Jordans Greatness.
He is 6 foot 6 with 6 championships.
On the 6th game of his 6th championship he hits the greatest game winning shot in NBA finals history and his everlasting image is captured with 6.6 seconds left!
Jordan entered the league 3 times and exited the league 3 times.
His numbers are 23 and 45
2/3=.666666....
2*3=6,
4+5=9
His olympic number is 9.
At age 30 he won 3 in a row and retired
At age 33 starts his 2nd 3peat
Retires from bulls at age 36 with 6 championships
out of. 15 year career, 6 years he won and 9 years he lost

Nikola Tesla said "If you only knew the magnificence of the numbers 3 6 and 9, you would have a key to the universe." I believe Michael Jordan discovered that key, or somebody or something else discovered it for him.
@@369TheKey this is some deep numerical phenomena...
well said Vlad, thats exactly it
Most people are bad, some are good, very few are great, but only one is the greatest and you're looking at him. The best offensive player ever, one of the best defensive players ever and LITERALLY God in the playoffs. Simply GOAT.
Looked 1.5x fast with such unreal quickness... How quickly they forgot...
Appropriate title and the TRUTH. Best on both ends, before and still today.
Some say LeBron is faster? They didn't see MJ play, what a fantastic player
Yep. I've seen Mike, Kobe, Lebron and Westbrook play live, Jordan before and during his prime, and none of these are faster than Jordan while maintaining control of the dribble.
His first step faster than anyone
You right 👉💯💯💯💯
@Chris King Man Iverson was Lightning.
@Chris King IKR?! Dude was a hyper charged Ferrari racing against a bunch of elantra's on the court. It seemed like he was at the basket in 2 steps.
MJ is the GOAT!
Other players hesitate going to the basket in fastbreak play but jordan never stop he went straight to dunk it even when he is guarded.
Best pickpocket...lol🤣😂🤣
Nobody can excite the crowd as he can!
BEAST.
That Kiss The Rim/ Leaner/ The Tower of Pisa Dunk in real game!!! So sick!!
The Black Cat. Big fast strides.
Covers alot of ground with ease.
What makes MJ the greatest defender who ever played in basketball is for various reasons.
He could lock down his opponent 1 vs 1 defense which avoids having an open player on the opposing teams and MJ could still score big points.
He is a great team defender by anticipating the passing lanes and those behind the back shot blocks from bigs.
He puts in so much pressure on the defensive end to stop him coz they will end up in a poster coz MJ finishes strong to the basket with grace and passion.
The bigs always have an advantage with blocks category but MJ does everything from being the greatest on-ball defender and help defender.
His quickness, his length, his mental approach, his airness ❗️
The most perfect ball player
GREATEST PLAYER EVER, no qualifiers.
TO ALL THOSE PRETENDING THAT LEBRON IS FASTER THAN MJ. YEAH he might be faster than the 95-98 version of MJ but not the prime MJ of the 80's
TIM TIMS Well LBJ has a big decline in speed and endurance this year. Let's see if he can do what the declining MJ did.
TIM TIMS he is tho and LeBron has already played more than MJ did at 33. He wasn't taking breaks like MJ bum ass
jpogi gtxcr1 oh my comment was meant for u
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T So the fact Jordan took breaks and is still more accomplished than LeBron should tell you something.
+Steph Curry The G.O.A.T even GOD rested on the 7th day...
The 🐐 PERIOD!
Damn he was fast!
Wow. Among the many YT compilation vids about MJ, this single-handedly shows why he was, is, and will be the Greatest Of All Time. Yes, kids, I spelled out GOAT for ya’ll.
Appreciate the high compliment. Always tried to spit the truth about MJ and nothing more.
The small ball style and pick n roll/pop and drive and kick offense of today's game will not be a big problem to Jordan and the Bulls back then. Pippen, Jordan, and Harper all have high backetball IQ and no matter what ghost picks, or stacked/staggered picks you make, they can easily adjust to it and have the stamina and durability to play the whole game, every game. of course the opposing teams and players these plays are better 3 point shooters, but the game averages are still the same. If Derozan and Kawhi can be the top pplayers in today's NBA, how much more will Jordan be.
Jordan is not just a 2way great player he's a defender offensive player and a game orchestrator he's basically a 3way player most of the time he can play all positions much much better!
MJ23!👍👍👍
The steal & dunk is like an NFL pick 6
Amazing that there are so MANY steal-dunks. Most players would be lucky to have 2-3 in their career!
Anyone noticed how Jordan only took two steps before finishing!!? Today’s era I promise!! Takes three or more steps lol 😂
EVERYBODY MUST KNOW THIS INFORMATION ABOUT JORDAN ITS BEEN LONG ENOUGH!!!
If you want to understand why he is the goat watch my video explaining the equation Michael+Jordan = 3 6 9
ruclips.net/video/SqMDVQzkRlQ/видео.html
Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete EVER! No wonder his life seems to operate based on the patterns of 3s.
All of his numbers are in 3s they are all divisible by the number 3, if the number added up equals 3 6 or 9 then the number is divisible by 3. all his numbers seem to add up to 3 6 or 9. this video explains why.
3 6 and 9 are the numbers that are coded in Michael Jordans Greatness.
He is 6 foot 6 with 6 championships.
On the 6th game of his 6th championship he hits the greatest game winning shot in NBA finals history and his everlasting image is captured with 6.6 seconds left!
Jordan entered the league 3 times and exited the league 3 times.
His numbers are 23 and 45
2/3=.666666....
2*3=6,
4+5=9
His olympic number is 9.
At age 30 he won 3 in a row and retired
At age 33 starts his 2nd 3peat
Retires from bulls at age 36 with 6 championships
out of. 15 year career, 6 years he won and 9 years he lost
Even his baseball numbers are divisible by the number 3
Theres much much more....

@@369TheKey numbers and time are man made concepts to understand and perceive change.
@@369TheKey everything you just wrote is bullshit
Now most are travelling and the refs dont botyer to make the call.. nba now sucks cry baby stars .. stupid refs..
Whenever MJ and the Bulls played the Knicks, shit got personal. I love the old rivalries!!!
Awesome video and the title says it all. No one in the game ever did what Jordan did. Amazing.
what the fuck man..strides like cat leaps like gazelle..lands like a feather so lightly and gracefully..this guy had the ginom for bb..the speed and change of direction.. the only other athlete i can think off is Carl Louis..
2:16 foul in today's era. MJ just get back on defense without showboating. Just another regular MJ thing..
see this is the Jordan that's the goat. The Jordan that ran a 4.29 40 yard dash. The ESPN is sneaky. They like to only show 2nd three peat Jordan when he's slower and not the unstoppable Jordan. When he was human and not a alien from a foreign planet.
More Skittles the 98 mj was still unstoppable lol, and 10 times better than prime lebum who is just hyped up by these damn fake analysts
No you're right. It's really tricky how they do it...
More Skittles I notice that too. I realize they trying hard to convince the public to forget about MJ and make lebron the goat but they gonna fail. The NBA didn’t make MJ. MJ made the NBA GLOBAL
@@timmaz24s the nba didnt even want to promote jordan. They said when he got drafted a scorer would never lead his team 2 a championship.
More Skittles agreed and also some ppl believed that David Stern help Michael Jordan by watering down the league with the expansion of teams. That’s utter bullshit. MJ had 5 of the top ten worst of scoring supporting cast in the nba and that man carried his team and won. MJ truly the greatest.
Mj the God of 🏀
Amazing video. Fast as hell, jumps high as hell!!!
8:08 - 8:24 at half speed playback. Classic simple breakaway stuff for Jordan-- and still no one makes it _look_ like this: electric.
When his tongue is out, you just have no chance..seriously.
why is there such a goat debate
He had dunk contest scoring title defender of year mvp and finals mvp who else does that
Superb! Thank you!
1:21 Goat casually walking on air
Is there a stat on creating points off turnovers? I bet MJ would lead that one also. Dude was beast on both sides of the court.
90s best nba.. bec of the g.o.a.t. mj
I think you could say the best defensive player ever
I still consider Olajuwon to have that title MJ was a beast though
Michael Jordan just intercepts to cut off the passing lanes and get in the open court. He was quick as a cat. He had ten steals in a game once. He led the NBA in steals three times. That leaning dunk after the steal @ 3:05 off of Sonics forward Xaiver McDaniel was insane.
Dudes the Goat period
MJ is 9 Time All Defensive First Team and the only players who are there with him is Kobe, Garnett and Gary Payton.. right now Lebron is 5th. Steals per game? MJ is like a point guard when it comes to steals cause he is 3rd behind John Stockton and Jason Kidd with 2,514 STL. That alone speaks volume how much MJ is a killer at both ends, from offensive to defensive skillsets.

+Jay facts
I agree Kobe was a good defender, not a great defender. Certainly not at MJ's level.
+Bobby D true story
Some great all around players, for some reason or another, get strangely recognized as All def . Walt Frazier, for one, never was a lock down defender, as he was inaccurately credited for. West and Maravich and Monroe used to regularly light him up big time. Sure, they did that to many and most defenders. But I recall his heyday and Don Chaney and Jerry Sloan were the real superb lock down defenders in that era.
Frazier's main talent on D was stealing the ball and playing the passing lanes, much like star forwards Rick Barry & Julius Erving. 2 guys who were considered, decent, maybe even pretty decent, but never outstanding defenders. Clyde's D was more like Barry's and Erving's than Sloan's or Chaney's.
When we make these videos and comment we have to distinguish he was arguably the best two way wing player bigs are different
That ending tho😂
You rarely see a steal and a dunk in fastbreak nowadays.mj did it every game.lol
At 4:54 dunk on ole dude when the tongue came out it was up 😅🐐
Your account is awesome.
Agree him and Hakeem
🐐•••I could've won two more rings but they forced Phil out so I walked
All i have to say is mj played 40 to 45 minutes almost every game night
The tongue.
0:55 no euro step just pure slam
ONLY Kareem and Russel can be compared to this man EVER!
Unleash the dogs
Am I the only human being ever to see Kareem Abdul jabbar play basketball? It's amazing how when folks mention the "greatest of all time" Kareem name never comes up! His body of work speaks for itself. Remeber, he was a 6 time league MVP. and the league's all time leading scorer.
Dolphin Goosby #2
Dolphin Goosby is Kareem greatest center ever?
Kaushik Sinha not only was he the greatest center, in my opinion he was greatest of all time.
Russell and Wilt over KAJ.
If you've seen Kareem play, then you should also remember that one of his regular season MVPs came when he first joined the Lakers and the team finished under .500 that year. How many seasons should Jordan have won with his team being under .500???
Its Kawhi he even said so
James is not fast , the other players know that if they only breath on him it’s a foul so the slowdown .
All around and clutch LeBron play like T.Mac but Bron drive more tho and uses his body weight to get what he want T.Mac will light yo ass up 😂
I've always seen LeBron as a more super Pippen or super Drexler with a touch of GHill rather than MJ or even a T-Mac or Magic
Lebron has the luxury of pushing players when driving and not being called for the offensive foul. I remember years ago Kenny Anderson use to do the same and almost always got called for offensive foul.
Kobe A.I yes compare .......T.Mac LeBron compare ..........🤔. Not Jordan 😕
Rell williams punk
Rell williams like u said before I fight with facts not dumb opinions Jordan crushes Iverson in 50point games and 40 point games dummy
Jorge Delgado I did too but LeBron average 40 a night AGAINST goldenstate in the finals and lost 4-2 next year won last year he average a triple double in the finals AGAINST a 73-9 team Let's be honest that's great but u talking 1good player LeBron had to go against a good team name me one team Jordan had to face with a 73-9 record I'll mail u a thousand bucks today
@@BigRell38OET lol lechoke avg 40 😂
Yall Mad 😂 Now why I gotta be all these names now A.i had how many scoring titles right how many hall of famers A.i played with Right lmao
Sorry that would be lonzo ball. BBB
Best two way player would be Mr Olajuwon buddo
Great vid nonetheless
I added the term "End-to-End" for a reason. Centers can't change ends like wing players can.
Olajuwon didn't want any part of it at 2:33 buddo
+Ball Is Life FACTS
austin curry ok?
LeBron is faster than the 🐐 LMAO!
@OIP ! you didn't get that round mouth from eating a square meal
Stop meat eating
Currently it is James Harden who is the best two-way player..
Maybe best one way player.
WRONG JORDAN is only the GOAT when SCOTTIE is by his side
Who else did he have? Certainly not the overall cast Magic, Bird, Kareem, Wilt or Russell had. Pippen great, sure. Any other Bulls? Forget it. I don't count Rodman who was a great rebounder, but was barely involved in other areas.
Mick A had a bunch of role players that believed lol
Ryzon Nathan lmaooo but bird had hof player like worthy,kareem, and other great role players... And bird had hof parish,mchale,dennis Johnson, and other great role players as well.. and lebron had wade bosh love irving,..... Dont talk bball its so sad
Ran Holic wtf you on about Boi? we agree Jordan is the 🐐? I'm just starting without Pip he doesn't get there aiight fool
Ran Holic and bird never had worthy or Kareem ya fucking dreamer 😂
LEBRON WAS THE BEST 5 WAY PLAYER EVER.
Try not getting smoked by KD in both finals first.
Nope. Magic Johnson. What other Point Guard can start at Center in his rookie season and get 42, 12 and 7 to clinch an NBA Championship?
Best 5 way player but raped by jason terry, kawhi,durant,iguodala,old dirk, in the finals lmaooooo
Galaxy Cross another lebum bi.... with 0 knowledge, go tweet lebum maybe he has use of u
highschool lebron is better than prime Westbrook
king James is better than prime MJ
for more info check out lebron highlights!👑
@DaveyJones No one chokes harder than Lebron losing to an aging white dude Dirk or 38 yr-old has-been TD despite having DWade and Bosh helping him. G6-0T >> LeWannaBe. #NotEvenClose
Navaro Palm Lebron choke for a reason. you already know it😁 bcuz he's going back to Cleveland and bring the championship to the city😕😕😕 he can get 5 rings in Miami if he wants but he don't need it..
@DaveyJones Perhaps, just perhaps, the reason being he ain't Jordan-level 6-0 good. LOL. Let's face it, if we switch Lebron with Jordan we'd be talking 6 rings, maybe 7 or even 8 INSTEAD OF a 3-5 record.
L
Navaro Palm Lebron is the GOAT face the truth and good things will happened😁😁😁
My ass he was the greatest. Fake news. Facts don't support that statement. Michael Jordan didn't even start in high school. In college James Worthy was the Tarheels best player. In the pro's he didn't start winning until Magic, Bird, Dr. Jay and Isiah Thomas were old and retired. History don't lie. Believe it, accept it, it's reality. Boom. Also, he couldn't win without Pippin and Grant.
Omar Thomas u gotta put it into context
Well, wonder what Magic, Bird, Dr J, Isiah, even Wilt and Kareem (yes, even them) would have won with MJ's early Bulls teams? I'd say not a damn thing.
And this guy didn't. Not enough anyhow.
+Mick A Bill Russell has 11 NBA World Championships and Jordan has 6 NBA World Championships do the math? Bill Russell also won 8 NBA World Championships in a row. Jordan couldn't even come close. He will never top 11 NBA World Championships. History don't lie. You can take that to the bank.

Michael Jordan couldn't win in the 80"s. He won his championships in the Watered Down Era of Basketball. History don't lie.
That's dumb and stupid, that watered down era you name includes prime centers and forwards where everybody's heads are chop off going to the basket. The reason why kobe and shaq couldn't get past the 1997 western conference finals is because of the Utah Jazz, the team that loose to the Bulls twice. MJ is 9 time all defensive first team, Pippen is 8 time and Rodman 7 time.. That Power Trio destroyed a lot of Teams in the 90s. Magic is just 4yrs and Bird is 6 yrs older than MJ. They're not that old and washed up when MJ came in 84.
+paolo-1283 Shut your ignorant non knowing basketball ass up. Wash your ass and quit living in fantasy land. Jordan couldn't win in the 80"s fact. He only started winning when Magic, Bird, Kareem, and Isiah were getting old or retired. Facts. Jordan couldn't even start on his high school team. Facts. In college James Worthy was the main star at UNC. Facts. In the pro's the Pistons, Celtics, and 76'ers used to tapp Jordans ass before he won a NBA World Championship. Facts. Bill Russell has won 11 NBA World Championships. Facts. Jordan will never ever will nerve ever top that. Facts. Period. History don't lie. You can put your lips on that. Boom.
What are you smokin' man?
+paolo-1283 Who did Jordan really face? Charles Barkley a player who was fat out shape and couldn't win a NBA World Championship. John Stockton who couldn't even lift Jordan's nutsack. Drexler who isn't on the same level as Kobe, Durant, and Lebron. Who also couldn't win a championship until he joined a winning team. Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp who also couldn't win a NBA World Championship. Payton also went to another team to win a NBA World Championship. He also faced a old Magic Johnson not in his prime without Kareem and Cooper. Now you explain that. He won NBA Championships in the Watered Down Pepsi Generation Era. History don't lie.

If we being honest in today NBA Michael Jordan would be Demar Derozan
W as always for me
Dude - why do you troll all the MJ videos? You are literally the first guy watching every single video. You say you hate him and he can't play which is just truly laughable and yet you watch nonstop. MJ would literally demolish the league and for you to draw parallels to Derozan because Demar plays a midrange game is laughable. I'm pretty sure you've never played a game in your life but your asinine obsession with hating on MJ either borders on idiocy or you're 12 years old.
Not only would MJ literally destroy everyone, he'd get to the free throw line every single possession as he'd drive the basket with no big bodies in the middle. Today's game is a bunch of open court free wheeling basketball and he would literally be unstoppable. He'd retire out of boredom. He'd punish little boys like Stephanie defensively - literally punish him just like he did his daddy Dell Curry. Punish him.
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T first off Demar is not the athletic beast Jordan was. Jordan is a very intelligent player he'd fine a way to beat zone. Plus how many teams do you that play zone all game? Jordan was dropping 20ppg at 39yrs against zone defense. And defense was weak? Some of the greatest defense player's and team's played during Jordan era
I think you secretly wish you were alive to watch MJ live. Sorry bro but you missed out. If you saw, you would just know what's up.
Steph Curry the... Your ignorance is hilarious and your trolling is amateur at best!!
