Look how perfect, in every sense of the word, the move and shot at 1:37 is. On balance, elevation over the defender, textbook form and follow through. Incredible…I can't think of any other word to describe it.
the beauty in jordan's game was he wasnt the biggest (SHAQ), most athletic (LBJ), or fastest player (AI) to play the game, he had just enough of each. What he did have tho, was the most complete basketball SKILLS ever, and a SERIAL KILLER instinct. No-one could dominate his position on both sides of the floor like he could. An sometimes, hell, MOST times he made that shit look unfair, ESPECIALLY in 1995-1996. An the fact the he had the 11's on while DESTROYING the league like never before (72 wins+Championship), was jus the cherry on top..it was truly a sight to see..Aye MONEY! Its gotta be the shoes!!
This old Jordan in this video and he's making shots that coward like LeBron could only dream of young Jordan was apathetic God. So what are you talking about saying LeBron was more athletic?. Shit coward lbj didn't even enter the dubk contest because he knows he's limited athletically and his creativity is shit compared to jordan
holy crap, MJ was unreal. there were just so many ways that he could score on you. if he wasn't such a good passer and distributor to his other teammates, he probably could have averaged 40-50 points a game if he wanted.
Whever I get bored of the /yawn NBA of today I just come back to these video's and remember what it once was to watch all time greats play the game of basketball.
At 3:06 !!! What did I just saw !! Dammmn it.... he put it on the glass for himself like that Ahahahaahahh !! This guy was somewhere else, in another dimension :)
Awesome video.. Jordan is amazing during the regular games.. But in the playoffs, he is GODLIKE.. 95-96 Jordan (33yrs old): MVP, All-Star MVP, Final MVP, NBA 1st Team, All Defensive 1st team, 72-10, Scoring Champion, NBA Champion.
So ahead of his time, even when he was old, he was dominating all those stars like Grant, Penny, Allen, Kobe, etc. Even when MJ was 40 he was matching Tmac, Vince, etc. THE GOAT. With coaches and players BOTH admitting that today it is easier to score, MJ at 27 (1988/89) would average 45 - 50 ppg today AND lead the league in steals also.
The Best of All time! At least for me.This vid made me sad and happy at the same time.His greatness will live forever in the nba! Five stars my friend :) awesome video!
dude you are half wrong half correct... if you say overall player then lebron is better than kobe but if you are talking about scoring skills, and will , dude,... lebron is no way near to kobe. lebron froze, choked,.. mentally and emotionally lebron is far behind kobe..
I hate when people say Kobe is BETTER than MJ........lets compare shall we? MJ 6-time NBA Champion (6 Finals MVP and 6-0)-Kobe 5-time NBA Champion (2 Finals MVP and 5-2), MJ 5-time NBA's MVP-Kobe 1 NBA's MVP (2008), MJ 10-time NBA scoring champion-Kobe 2-time NBA scoring champion, MJ 1 NBA Defensive Player of the year-Kobe 0, (MJ 3-time Steals Leader-Kobe 0) MJ 7-time Sporting News MVP-Kobe 0)......and lets not forget Jordan retired for a year and a half. The defense rest your honor!
Jordan has a genius level offensive game. So much technique, fundamentals, and creativity. Not just barrelling down and buldozing everyone out of the way.
Just seeing this old footage is so GREAT! I'm wondering what frequency we were on back then that made this look like HD does to us today... GREAT VIDEO! Nice WORK!
The 3 Dislikes on this Video come from Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, & Karl Malone for never winning a championship because Jordan stop them every time like this if you agree!
MJ's intelligence and body control are from another planet, era, galaxy, etc. This is The most amazing basketball player ever. Kobe is a great shooter, and competitor, but it is not on the same league. Le Bron is a monster on the court, but Jordan is simply amazing. Elegance, Strength, Technic, Intelligence. Thank U MJ for all those great moments! Thank U Balthus23 for this great compilation!
I wouldn't even say that simply for the fact that there isn't a player in history that resembles Jordan. He's on another level, Jordan is his own genre of player.
This videos never gets old and I always feels like watching it for the first time though Ive seen them over and over again. I just cant get enough of his GREATNESS. Thanks for this great upload.Long live MJ fans, the best player of all time deserves the classiest fans ever!
left, right, 3 points, in the paint, fade away, jump shot, it just doesn't matter to him! he makes them all! nuttttttts! my only regret is that I was young when he played and I did watch a lot of his games on tv, but its nothing like actually going to the stadium and watching the best player in the world play. pure greatness it is! Its amazing how better he gets when more than one defender guards him.. if 4 people came to guard him he will score none the less. I'm getting better just watching
i feel sorry for these generations to come, they wont even know who Michael Jordan is but they will know scrub ass lebron. when i have my son i will have to put him in front of the TV for the whole day to watch MJ. So thank you for this video this will be the first i will show him.
And people dare comparing this man to Kobe,or Lebron. Are you kids delusional or something? If Kobe or Lebron played against bad boys Pistons,the Knicks in Jordan's era, they would shit their pants. Jordan got beat up, and still dominated throughout his whole career, all the while putting up amazing NUMBERS against that tight defense. If Jordan was young and in his prime and played in our era, he would avg about 45 to 50 ppg. I mean come on, this is the greatest man to ever touch a basketball.
Man back then there was nothing like the feeling when the Bulls game was on. You never knew what you were going to see him do. I remember not liking him when I was kid because everybody else liked him having never seen him play in like 1990. I sat down one day and said let me see what everybody is talking about and I was hooked from that day forward. I watched NBA basketball just to see him play. Once he left....there's nobody I enjoy watching as much. The end of an era :(
oh God, :'( how many times I told them that MJ was the greatest, they still dont understand,they keep on yelling that Lebron is the greatest. but look at this video, look at this highlights. even a bit Lebron is no match for him. two thumbs up for this vid. @Balthus23 thank you very much man, this video inspired me.
I don't know that we've ever seen that combination of size, athleticism, determination, mental strength, fundamentals and speed at that height. Despite Lebron's size and unbelievable athleticism, he lacks fundamentals.
For some of the younger crowds that think skill wins.. Read about Jordan's breakfast club and how hard they practiced that year..work ethic is all him.. Not just skills and two teammates to pick u up
Watching MJ now that he has retired is like a joke. I mean the guy was too good. I really do not think his greatness can be measured. So yea Kobe is a 8/10, Lebron a 9/10 but MJ is not even on the scale. Especially at min 9:12 was mind boggling. Newman was playing as good a "D" as you could play and MJ still scored. And whats impressive is not the score but rather how he baited him in. Unguardable.
@THETOYOTAable wow dr basketball. i was just joking. thank you quoting the most generic info that ANYONE can obtain from the internet. i guess no one knows basketball more than you do
No can be better than Mike! I mean he won three title n retired n then came back n won three more title!!!! Who does that???? No one better than him!!! THE G.O.A.T.
a tremendous athlete with both will and skill. and when his physical prowess is gone, his great fundamentals carry him to the top. thanks for the rare videos bathus23!
if you want to defeat him once, just once, the way is just lay low profile. never, ever challenge him nor provoke him, and WISH that he would let his guard down. If you provoke him, he will crush you till nothings left.
it's actually a complete embarassment when nba ''fans'' shamelessly put ANYONES name next to MJ. This is the MASTER of basketball. Next subject.
He's fast as hell, doesn't give a chance to recover. He's a aster in keeping the def off balance
Mj = God .
Excellent job Balthus.
Everyone who watched Jordan play for years knows that he was like kobe on steroids.
This dude had one season worth of highlights that most guys couldn't do in their whole careers.
at 35,36 years old MJ was unstopable...dont forget this!!!!
Look how perfect, in every sense of the word, the move and shot at 1:37 is. On balance, elevation over the defender, textbook form and follow through. Incredible…I can't think of any other word to describe it.
I don't understand how anyone young, old, man, woman, or child can watch these highlights and not say Michael Jordan is the greatest ever!
ORIGINAL IS ALWAYS THE BEST...
is impossible to be better
what a legend!!!!... its unbelievable....
the beauty in jordan's game was he wasnt the biggest (SHAQ), most athletic (LBJ), or fastest player (AI) to play the game, he had just enough of each.

Shit coward lbj didn't even enter the dubk contest because he knows he's limited athletically and his creativity is shit compared to jordan
***** i was jus sayin PHYSICALLY he is bigger than MJ, which is FACT. - skill wise, Jordan has him beat in every catagory...like i said in the comment
holy crap, MJ was unreal. there were just so many ways that he could score on you. if he wasn't such a good passer and distributor to his other teammates, he probably could have averaged 40-50 points a game if he wanted.

He was so ahead of his time that no one has caught up to him yet!
If I was a youngster like these guys now day! I watch study this guy every move to become great. Cause I have never ever saw anything like him!!!
watching these jordan videos....never gets old
The Best of All time! At least for me.This vid made me sad and happy at the same time.His greatness will live forever in the nba! Five stars my friend :) awesome video!

Those Iconic 11's he's wearing.
Jordan has a genius level offensive game. So much technique, fundamentals, and creativity. Not just barrelling down and buldozing everyone out of the way.
Beautiful mix, thanks a lot Balthus.
Greatest shot form in History.
Greatest basketball player ever
I miss this ..man there will never be another like him
Greatest player
14:25 THAT'S THE NBA I FELL IN LOVE WITH.
This is the best video of MJ I have seen in years!!! Hope you will make some more for the other seasons, too. Great job!
Kobe's fadeaway it's a copy from MJ's fadeaway!!
the whole damn season....beautiful, brilliant mix, speechless.
Just seeing this old footage is so GREAT! I'm wondering what frequency we were on back then that made this look like HD does to us today... GREAT VIDEO! Nice WORK!
The 3 Dislikes on this Video come from Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, & Karl Malone for never winning a championship because Jordan stop them every time like this if you agree!
thats were kobe got the move... 3:06
Not to mention that Kobe has had the luxury to play a majority of his career against lax defensive rules that favor perimeter players.
The BEST Michael Jordan video I have seen on RUclips to date!!! This really brought back some memories....that Fade-away jumpshot never gets old!
MJ's intelligence and body control are from another planet, era, galaxy, etc. This is The most amazing basketball player ever. Kobe is a great shooter, and competitor, but it is not on the same league. Le Bron is a monster on the court, but Jordan is simply amazing.
Elegance, Strength, Technic, Intelligence. Thank U MJ for all those great moments! Thank U Balthus23 for this great compilation!
i literally had an eyegasm...even at 33 he was more athletic than any nba player i know...even kobe, lebron, and kevin durant at their prime
I wouldn't even say that simply for the fact that there isn't a player in history that resembles Jordan.
He's on another level, Jordan is his own genre of player.
That man was a dam fool on that dam court ? Whoa
This is beautiful to watch. I never enjoy watching others,only MJ. And sometimes Vince Carter.
This videos never gets old and I always feels like watching it for the first time though Ive seen them over and over again. I just cant get enough of his GREATNESS. Thanks for this great upload.Long live MJ fans, the best player of all time deserves the classiest fans ever!
By the mid 90's that jumper and his footwork in the post was so ridiculous. He could really take his time picking you apart.
Wow one of my favorite band's with my favorite basketball player LMAO! Cant go wrong :)
Great job man, Im a big MJ fan and I never saw on youtube a lot of plays you got here. Plus edition and song are incredible!
Everybody wanted to be like Mike. Give Kobe credits for being able to copy him to the closest.
The level of difficulty on the shots he took is insane. AND he shot over 50% nearly every season!
@winhawk23
"It is astonishing for one player to have that many jaw-dropping highlights in one season!"
His '87 season highlights put these to shame...
12:52 is so ice cold
i want that shoes badly :(
absolutely...PURE GREATNESS!
left, right, 3 points, in the paint, fade away, jump shot, it just doesn't matter to him! he makes them all! nuttttttts! my only regret is that I was young when he played and I did watch a lot of his games on tv, but its nothing like actually going to the stadium and watching the best player in the world play. pure greatness it is!
Its amazing how better he gets when more than one defender guards him.. if 4 people came to guard him he will score none the less. I'm getting better just watching
oh god i luv u man, i luv u. i miss Michael's fadeaway, the most beautiful thing eva seen.
12:50
GOD DAMN!!!!!
he's just the best basket ball player who ever play the game, it's just crazy.
no one says kobe is better than mj, especially since kobe will retire next season...only die hard fans say so..
Not bad for a non-prime Jordan.
Great video. We learned a lot from MJ both on and off the court. Just wow
been watching MJ videos for almost 9 years now and still "I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH"...every video is just amazing as long as its HIS AIRNESS video!
whats the song, inspirational
God Is an Astronaut - Remembrance Day
no words....just priceless video!:))))
amazing job, man!
the greatness
7:04 Was that a game winning steal and dunk? Lol
Ryo tanaka.. song name...god is an astronaut remembrance day
that was hands down the best compilation video of mj that ive ever seen, great music to. awesome awesome job
@THETOYOTAable
so what's those stats tell you? i guess jordan in 89-90 season shot all his 3pt at the corner:)
Name ONE team in the 80's that won it all, that DIDN'T have at LEAST 3 All-Stars?
This is the greatest of all time he is Mj michael jordan
The Real Deal
Can someone please tell me again why Kobe and Lebron are even mentioned..
@ 14:50 that would have been a foul called in todays game....either offensive or blocking
8:00 In 90's we used to love moves like that. This was kind of move that everyone was trying to copy. I miss 90's
Pure greatness is an understatement
3:07 amazing own rebound-shot-scoring
to think this is only 1 season... just pure greatness!
Simply awesome! Great work and footage as always!!!
i feel sorry for these generations to come, they wont even know who Michael Jordan is but they will know scrub ass lebron. when i have my son i will have to put him in front of the TV for the whole day to watch MJ. So thank you for this video this will be the first i will show him.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MJ!!!!

MJ > Kobe > Lebron
that is BLASPHEMOUS!!!!!! as what would STEVEN SMITH would shout out loud! MJ GOAT No one else come close to his Overall greatness.
The King of The Baseline, Turnaround Jumper, Turnaround Fade and No one I mean no one does a reverse Layup like the Jordan!
@Balthus23 can you please make a vid of jordan's footwork?A lot of people don't realize how great his footwork was....thanks.
if you want to defeat him once, just once, the way is just lay low profile. never, ever challenge him nor provoke him, and WISH that he would let his guard down. If you provoke him, he will crush you till nothings left.
As far as I'm concern, they can keep the lockout.....just give me the 95-96 season and I'll be satisfied with that!
One of the best MJ videos out there! Period.
@8:00 was that shot went in?..
Not sure if this has been mentioned in earlier post but Michael was 33 years old that season. 33!!
dude .. kobe who? lebrone what? Griffen how? ... please ...
MJ all the way ... no doubt
