I love these videos and wish I had them when I was a kid. Jordan practically always pulls up with a 1-2 stop rather than a jump stop. That is pretty clear but there are some very subtle things Jordan does with his footwork that are hard to see. His footwork is different when moving left versus moving right. When he moves right, he turns his lead foot (left foot) inwards towards the hoop as he sets it on the floor. Your body has to turn more when you pull up moving right and turning your left foot inwards as you set it down helps guide you into your turn. When he moves left, he doesn't do that. He sets his lead foot (right foot) down in the same direction he is moving, which is pointed left of the hoop. That's because your shooting arm is already aligned with the hoop with your feet point to the left so you don't have to turn in further. Also he sets his trail foot down further from the hoop when he goes left. If he swung it all the way around to set it down equidistant with his lead foot, he would overturn. He doesn't have to turn as much when going left so its just a short quick pop with his trail foot to go straight up. He sometimes sets his trail foot down further from the hoop when he goes right. He does that when he jumps off of his back foot and fades away. Most of the time he sets his trail foot down equidistant from the hoop with his lead foot when he goes right. I think most right handers are better at going left than right because it is natural to set your lead foot in the same direction you move. You have to make a deliberate attempt to turn your lead foot in when going right and many players just don't instinctively do that.
He really just jumps backwards a lot or leans back a bunch. Front leg kickout looks like he's high up. He's leaning back with one leg down and another directly below his center of gravity.
@@paulgeorge9228 I mean on his jumper. He wasn't really raising up high vertically on his jumper because it's bad form to do so. Not to say that he couldn't because there's proof he could and would. But optimally Jordan wasn't really jumping high off the ground on jumpers, he was keeping his left leg and more specifically his heel directly under his butt to stay balanced, than would lean back with his right leg out to maintain balance with his now back leaning upper body and shoot with whatever space his leap could make. Generally on a jumper you want to use the power from your legs to power your shot which alleviates the necessity of use of force from your upper body ((TL;DR Jordan used the force generated with his legs to power his jumper up, rather than power his jump up. Which is why it was so effortless and looked flickable)) don't get me wrong though, Michael Jordan is one of the most extraordinary leapers of all time.
@@sareaper69 im not assuming youre stupid, op says he jumps so high on his jumpshot and youre kinda saying its an illusion, that he rlly dsnt jump that high
@@paulgeorge9228 okay now let's test. Watch the video and tell me who is closer to correct. I'm legitimately curious if I'm being delusional rn or seeing what I want to see rather than what's actually happening
MJ in wizards was a shell of himself... Due to Knee injury and old age .... Mj's peak was short but still he accumulated records and accomplished a lot in his short prime.....
That’s after MY LEGS……If they were THERE they’ll tell you I HAVE’NT lost one step or my handles. CROSS OVER is still deadly without CARRYING THE BALL. Tell them what you saw today? ON EVERYTHING I LOVE ❤️
I made 35 threes and it’s safe to say I SHOT over 50% and it’s been about 6 months since I played in a gym. WHEN I GOT PUSHED DOWN and bruised my entire RIGHT HIP down to my CALF at the YMCA Bellevue 6-7 months ago. ON EVERYTHING I LOVE ❤️
This can’t be stopped in ANY era

The GOAT. Kobe fan here.
Not just Jordan but legit anyone who has thay one dribble pull up down is a LETHAL scorer, y’all don’t know how hard that shit is to guard
Exactly it’s all about that quick first step and once you commit they pretty much have an open shot.
My favorite player, i love how he can accelerate and decelerate so easily and shoot so accurately
He’s so clean.
this music is sonic vibes fire!!
Great music in the video to showcase one facet of the ultimate basketball player
he jumped so high with his jumpshot

“jordan leaves the bulls to play for the wizards”
jason gandionco ...haha...that's funny...LeBoy's a ship jumper...at least MJ rowed on the ship for a lot of years...
@@johnnyfreeman1018 tbf MJ retired lol, he didnt jump ship

Hi Fly Superstar

Wizard Jordan has a playing style almost identical to Kobe
im a kobe fan and nah, mj is much much better lol
The greatest. Lebron could never do this
"Shut" its hard to master.
It so easy i can able that
Its easy if you played against nobody guarding you...jordan doing it against the best of the best
Jump shut ????
I'm wrong
"technology" ok
Song?
J Santos Darude - Sandstorm
E Youth No it’s not..
Afforder just kiddin, its Superstar by Hi- fly
Wow thanks!!👍
thats why he is copied by kobe
Mj23 The Goat you dame right
All I see is Wizards MJ? You got to represent his pull up with the 91-93 days. This video does not do MJ justice nor does his Wizards days.
His exactly like butler of timberwolves
Not even close
Lmfao just get 6'6 and your jumpshots are consistent
Kobe is the goat, mj copied him before he was born
stupid comment
