"He stole their dreams." Courtney, that sums up his career more than any other quote I've ever heard.
LOL, yeah she has no idea how true that statement is for a lot of legends. And did you notice that shot was on Charles Barkley when she said it.
It was an era of Legends and Hall of Famers
He was the dream shatterer. How many of the greatest players to ever play the sport were denied the chance to win a championship of their own simply because they were unfortunate enough to be playing this sport at the same time as this man?
@@khaliddecker8120 Why would you want to hack your girl's account?
HEAR HEAR!!
He wasn't only one of the great offensive players in history, but he was a all star defensive player, and the greatest competitor I ever watched. He was the best in big games.
That is almost exactly what I was gonna say, I watched nearly all his games from 1991 until he left the Bulls, and I never saw an athlete take over a game in ANY sport like he did. His drive, and competitive spirit were second to none. The man HATED losing, and would treat practices like game 7 of the Finals, giving team mates black eyes, and shit if he felt like you weren't putting in work. Funny thing is I'm not really a Bulls fan, I'm a NY sport fan, but Jordan is my favorite to watch of all time. Whenever people compare him to Lebron, or a kobe I laugh and shake my head knowing that person never was able to watch Jordan nearly everyday in his NBA career, because if you had, there is no comparison.
You need to watch 7 stories that prove he is not a human.
@@punkem733 Yeah, I'm not a Bulls fan either, but he was the best NBA player I ever watched.
All NBA defender not just all star defender
@@punkem733 Well said.
Lebron is better!
I love this... She had no idea that Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player ever... But even she can tell that he did things that other basketball players couldn't
he isnt the greatest lebron is the goat better stats and highlights
gasnel banks yes cause highlights make you better 😂😂😂
Jeremiah Guthrie she didn’t say she didn’t have an idea who MJ was...she just said she never really watched him dude
there's no "greatest player ever", first of all, but you're right about her reactions, she's naive about MJ and still she can see Jordan's greatness... you can't say the same about other people, supposedly NBA fans
Man I am a HUGE Michael Jordan fan, loved the Bulls teams that he was a part of. He was the definition of clutch.
There is no better way to describe him: Michael Jordan The G.O.A.T. Greatest Of All Time.
I'd rather have Hakeem the dream. There's a reason he was drafted #1 over Michael.
@@deeztruckz2430 Hakeem is one of the greatest centers of all time. Unfortunately he and the Rockets didn't win a title until Jordan retired the first time. I'd still take Jordan over Hakeem, if we base it off what we know now.
@@deeztruckz2430 And I could say that there was a reason Hakeem didn't win a NBA title until Jordan retired the first time. When you're drafted doesn't matter, it's what you do after you're drafted and Jordan had a more successful NBA career. Hell Sam Bowie was drafted higher than Jordan and isn't mentioned along the lines of these players except for that draft. I respect Hakeem and I respect your opinion, he is one of the greatest players of all time, but in my opinion Jordan is *the* greatest player of all time.
@@stonecoldku4161 if I'm not mistaken, didn't Sam Bowie lie about a knee injury or pain in his legs to get drafted higher?
@@ScarredCitizen No idea.
"did he just jump over a whole ass man?" lol
I was only going to watch some of this vid and ended up watching the whole thing. MJ was a BEAST.
Me Toooooooo!
Some of these aren’t the most visually appealing but the implications and the level of history being made is what makes this Top 50 even more meaningful
A little context: When he was in the Wizards uniform, he was right at 40 years old!!!! Insane. And averaged like 24 points,
And played all 82 games in his last year, 2003.
How many shots vs did he take
He was unreal to watch. He was beyond next level. There's a reason he's worth almost 2 billion dollars now. Fun fact.. When he was playing in high school, the varsity coach said he wasn't good enough to play varsity high school basketball haha
I BET THAT COACH FEEL LIKE A DAM FOOL.
He is worth 2.1 billion as of february 2020. Google it. Richest man in nba history.
12:35 - the great thing about that move is it was against the Detroit Pistons. At that time the Pistons couldn't beat Jordan (I mean no one could) and the Pistons, known as "The Bad Boys" for their rough and physical style of play, came up with "The Jordan Rules" - basically they decided to hit him as much and as hard as possible when he drove to the basket. In this play, Bill Laimbeer is winding up to deliver a hard hit and Jordan side steps him, avoids the hit and still hits the basket. Love it!
Agreed, one of MJ smartest great looking moves. Love it toooo. Dont need to mention that he is one of the best scorer, defender and assister on his area and position. G.O.A.T. =-> because he is a total allrounder !!!
It was a privilege and an honor to have grown up watching this incredible player! The one and only GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!
Yes sir! So glad I grew up watching the NBA in his prime. What a fucking stud of a player. Absolute stone cold killer and God help anybody in his way.
Growing up in Chicago in the 90s was a privilege. Just about every single person loved and supported Michael and the Bulls. You'd see old white grandmas wearing bulls jackets as well as urban youth.
They don't call him "Black Jesus" for nothing. He the 🐐
Really? Because he could shoot a ball in a net and jump from heights to do it? Really? Black Jesus? 🤦🏿♂️
@@blackice7408 that's what the league called him during this timeframe.
@@LeathafaceTV we were designed to worship God but when we stray from that, we put otherthings in the world as a God. And the world views as if we've lost a 'God'. And then the world wonders why bad things constantly keeps on happening in the world
@@blackice7408 lies bruth we are Gods. We been on this Earth longer than the Christian notion of God is. You haven't even scraped the surface by no means at all yet.
@@LeathafaceTV man thats the same mindset lucifer had before ue got kicked out of heaven - permanently. We are made in the image of God but by NO means are we God. Jesus Christ is God - who is the son of God. Trust me, if you keep that same mentality, you will regret it on judgement day
They say, when it’s man vs gravity, man loses, in MJ’s case, it’s gravity that loses
seanman1231 Lmao too true 😂
@@CourtneyCoulston is micheal Jordan YOUR favorite Players
Without question, by a substantial margin, the most graceful athlete to ever grace a profession PERIOD.
Amen to that brother. He makes impossible moves for most people just look normal.
I would say that Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux were just as graceful in Hockey. And like Michael, no one has come close to them in hockey. Three of the GOATs.
He was amazing but you cannot say the most graceful athlete to grace a profession Period. you really can't. Lionel Messi, who has won everything in football. Lewis Hamilton who has won 6 world formula 1 titles, Jonah Lomu, the greatest rugby player of all time RIP. Sir Chris Hoy in track cycling who won 6 Olympic Golds, Tiger Woods, Federer, i could go on and on. Would disagre as a small example. Jordan was the goat of basketball, but other people in other sports who are goats in them, can't be discounted.
"Wow, he's really good!" Oddly, an understatement. You made me smile Courtney. Can't help but notice the impression Michael left. I'm happy he brought you the same kind of excitement that he brought to us when we watched him on the court. He was a beast and a voracious competitor. Cheers...
1st off...even as a Rockets fan, Im happy as shit that I was alive to see Jordan, and old enough to’ve watched and appreciate, when I was REALLY into sports. It was an honor watching 90’s ball
2nd...for me, there’s nothing like watching these legends in action, and seeing the opponents (their peers) on the bench dazzled with some amazing highlights. Jordan had that effect...Bird had that effect..Magic..etc...all strong showmen for the NBA fan.
Courtney: a simple four-word phrase yelled REPEATEDLY by the announcers bear witness to Jordan's greatness & status as the Greatest Of All Time:
"HE DID IT AGAIN!!!!!!"
He’s the greatest sportsman in any sport ever.
Actually no that title belongs to sir donald bradman. The dons stats are of the chart, they compared his stats to every other champions of every sport and his nearly twice as good as the next best. Look him up if you dont belive me.
But yes your right Michael is a champion, for kids of my era everyone wanted to be like mike.
@@carlofaccini8034 never heard of whoever you're talking about and yet everyone has heard of Mike. I'd definitely say have to say mike is the greatest sportsman in any sport ever...
Muhammad Ali is the GOAT sportsman.
You're totally right!
Greatest ever to play the game. Period. No he's not good. He's the Greatest of All Time!
@Jeremy Bunnell Most of those wins were against Bulls teams that were awful at the time and had no one other then Jordan carrying them.
@Jeremy Bunnell I think Bird should've beat the Lakers more to be on that level even if it was against both Kareem and Magic if the C's only gave L's to the showtime that could've been it but the L's got the luck with most of their threats suffering huge injuries and they only fell when the Pistons and Bulls got stronger
Lebron is 10 times better than this jordan guy
11:00 best comment ever about Michael Jordan " He just stole their dreams " in his playing time there have been so many highlights done, so many interviews, documentaries, even movies. Hundreds of interviews with other players describing him, telling stories about him...but to me, this was the best comment that says Michael Jordan. Awesome!
The best basketball player! He's the greatest athlete from any sport in clutch moments ever...all those game winners he hit
Joe Montana is another one
The guy Jordan wags a finger at at the 7:00 mark is Dikembe Mutombo, who was rather infamous for doing that after blocking a shot. So Jordan was letting him know that he didn't get that one.
Yep :) Big Dikembe was hilarious. Loved his commercials, and it seems he was always very generous with everything he ever did.
This was after the All Star break when then played in the second half of the season, But the gist of the story is that in the trainors room, Jordan and Mutombo went back and forth about whether Jordan had dunked on him, EVERYONE in there kept asking Dekimbe Are you sure??? And he insisted NO!!! Then this happens,
"He does it so iffertlessly."
Awesome Accent
I'm a lifelong Celtics fan and have to admit that Jordan was the best ever! GOAT!
I love watching Courtney discover all these sports highlights. It makes me smile. Oh, and this Jordan guy, he's pretty good:)
he is the greatest of all time
Rad J Lebron is arguably better for sure. Wilt and Kareem have a case too. Just behind that pack Kobe and magic are pretty close
Jordan is the greatest cuz he never failed us. I'm a huge Lebron fan and he has let me down many times, but Jordan has always come through when it mattered most.
@Rad J Kid. Give up. Nobody is buying your bullshit. Many of us saw Jordan in real time and see Lebron in real time. There's no comparison. Jordan is levels above Lebron in everything. Stats don't even show half of it, records are Jordan's playground (47 vs 10), rings are just the icing of the cake. Jordan is the GOAT and everyone knows it.
@Rad J Best Complete Basketball player? Jordan was a 10x scoring champ, a 9x first team all-defensive player, 3x Steals leader, and Defensive player of the year. You can't get more complete than that. Magic was more complete than LeBron. A far better passer, can score and rebound at will, was a steals leader, and actually played Center in the Finals and scored 41 in place of injured Kareem. Had he not retired so early, Magic would be #1 in career triple doubles.
Comparing the Cavs when Lebron left to when Jordan first left the Bulls is one of the most flawed arguments lebron fans use. When Lebron left, 10 other players including the entire coaching staff left, pretty much starting over from scratch. When Jordan retired, they still had virtually the entire roster and coaching staff that won 3 straight championships. And even then, they got put out in the 2nd round without Jordan.
Michael Jordan has:
•3 more rings
•3 more final mvps
•1 more DPOY
•1 more season MVP
•9 more scoring titles
•3 more steals leader
•3 more all defensive team selections
•800 more steals
•Beat 20 50+ win teams in the playoffs (Lebron only defeated 10).
•Jordan never averaged less than 40% Field Goal in the finals Lebron did it twice .
•6/6 Finals (never allowed a game 7)
•Lebron had much more offensive help, example: Jordan never had a teammate average more than 22 points in the finals.. In fact, Mj is Only player in NBA history to lead a team to the championship with only one teammate averaging double figures in scoring * In the Bulls’ 1997 playoff run, Scottie Pippen averaged 19 points per game on 42% shooting. All other teammates of Jordan averaged under 8 points per game Kyrie averaged over 28 and DWade averaged more than 26.
•MJ never ever had a finals meltdown like Lebron in 2011 against the Mavs
•MJ had more points in the playoffs in less games..
MJ accomplished all of this in 13 seasons Lebron after his 14th season, was STILL chasing the “ghost (GOAT) that played in Chicago”
•Michael Jordan in the playoffs has put up atleast 40ppg, 5rpg, 5apg in 6 different playoff series. Along with an average of about 55% shooting, 3spg and 2bpg. (86 vs bos, 89 vs cavs, 90 vs philly, 92 vs Miami, 93 vs Phoenix, 88 vs cavs) Jordan won every one of those matchups except for the 1986 matchup vs the celtics.
•Jordan in 88-89 averaged 32ppg, 8apg, 8rpg, 3spg off 54% shooting. LeBron has never even came close to this stat line.
•in 87 thru 92, MJ averaged 5 straight seasons of atleast 51% FG shooting. LeBron has never done this.
•the lowest FT% MJ ever shot in a season was 78%. Lebrons highest in a season ever is 78%.
•MJ has a higher playoff FG% of 48.7% to Lebrons 48.3%
•MJ has a higher playoff player efficiency rating of 28.6 to Lebrons 27.3.
•MJ shoots a higher playoff 3 point percentage of 33.2% to Lebrons 32.9%
•LeBron James has scored 30 points, 416 times in 1,117 games. Michael Jordan did it 562 times in 1,072 games.
Jordan won 6 championships without losing a final in 1,072 games and LeBron in 1,117 games has lost 5 times and has only won 3 times.
•MJ also shocked the league by being the first (and only) player to have 100 blocks and 200 steals in the same season, then turned around and did it again the next year..
•Mj also has more career blocks (893) than Lebron James (853) despite playing in 22 LESS career games and being the smaller guy. Also, MJ averaged 1.6 blocks per game in the 1987-88 season which is absolutely bonkers for a 6’6″ shooting guard.
Seriously this list can keep going. This isn’t even a debate.
Mj is the GOAT. MIchael Jordan: •NBA record 5 playoffs series’ averaging atleast 40ppg
•Only player in history to lead league in scoring and win DPOY •
Highest scoring average, points per game, in any championship series: 41.0 vs. Phoenix Suns, 1993 NBA Finals
•Only rookie in NBA history to lead his team in four statistics (1984-85)
•Only player in NBA history to lead the league in scoring, win Most Valuable Player, and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season (1987-88)
Only player in history to average at least 30pts 6reb 5assists And 2 steals per game AND HE DID IT 7 TIMES.
•Only player in NBA history to win Rookie of the Year (1984-85), Defensive Player of the Year (1987-88), NBA MVP (1987-88, 1990-91, 1991-92, 1995-96, 1997-98), All-Star MVP (1988, 1996, 1998), and Finals MVP (1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, 1998)
•Only player in NBA history to lead the league in scoring and win the NBA championship MORE THAN ONCE in the same season * He did this SIX TIMES!! (1990-91, 1991-92, 1992-93, 1995-96, 1996-97, 1997-98)
•One of two players in NBA history to score 3,000 points in a season: 3,041 points scored in 82 games played (37.1 ppg) (1986-87) * Wilt Chamberlain is the only other player to achieve this.
•MJ is also the only player in NBA history to score over 40 points at age 40, and he did it twice!
•In 1988, MJ earned: Dunk Champ, All Star Game MVP, NBA Scoring Title, League MVP and Defensive Player of the Year.
Michael in only ELEVEN complete seasons with the Bulls: -10 scoring titles, -Won Defensive Player of the Year, -9 times all defensive team, -9time All NBA, -5 league MVPs -6 finals MVPs
Mj has done in 11 seasons things Lebron hasn’t done and won’t do in his whole career…
Not only was he great but he faced some of the greatest..
Yea, that's a big part of what she's missing. She doesn't get what a moment him dunking over friggin Mutombo was, or slicing Bird and the Garden apart that night. He shined when the spotlight was brightest, and I'm still bummed we all missed out on 2 years of him in his prime. Seriously, they could have won 8 in a row.
@@citisoccer I'm an Larry legend guy celtics fan through and through...That was some of the greatest basketball I've ever witnessed Bird vs Jordan...Epic
@@jaycoopz2152 for sure. Ya know, when I was a kid in the 80s, I vividly remember asking my dad if anyone ever won the NBA besides the Celtics or Lakers. He just laughed, "yes, son. Eventually". Lol.
I miss that NBA, when HOF players were taking the court every night, and the game was about as physical as the NFL is now lol.
GOAT!!!! Reason why his sneakers is the top selling of all time. Plus MJ actually played defense, the best on ball shooting guard defender of all time. Also the highlights of MJ when he is with the Wizards is when he was 39 and 40 years old!!! Still the only player in history to score 50 at the age of 40. Greatest clutch player of all time.
There’s nothing more impactful than to hear your opponents speak of the fear, respect and dominance you had over them. That’s all I ever hear about Jordan. I thank God that I was blessed to grow up seeing him play basketball. Jordan is the greatest of all time.
"He's really good"
That was amazing, I've never been a fan, or should I say follower, of football or basketball but through you I've discovered to many awesome moments in the history of those sports. Like even this, I always knew Jordan was good but I had never seen him play and wow, I'm as impressed as you to see just how amazing of a player he was! Keep the reactions coming, it's always fun!
Watch video of Vince Carter
He is not just "good" he is/was the GOAT in the sport.
@Osama Abdi indeed! He is the GOAT, IS as in still IS! ;)
@DaddyRaka I don't think you can really compare MJ and Lebron different generations different competition they the goats ib my book and Kobe was onky close to mj in play style
Chilll Um Jordan was better than LeBron at everything, even passing. Look at MJ’s Finals performance against the Lakers. Averaged over 11 assists/game with only 3.4 turnovers. LeBron’s best finals performance in dishing dimes? 10.0/game, while averaging an even 5 turnovers/game.
And let’s not forget LeBron, and his bronze medal.
Bob Zanveghana If you’re going by numbers than Bill Russell is better. 11 rings > 6 rings
Atem Yugimoto not going by numbers. Russell was great, but no Jordan.
By your logic, Trent Dilfer was a better QB than Dan Marino.
He is the GOAT. There is a reason why people say Jerry Rice/Tom Brady, Wayne Gretzky, Mayweather, etc are the Michael Jordan's of their sports. He set the standard for greatness. You can write out all of his accomplishments and see how impressive he was, but the best way to watch Jordan is to see him play. Clutch, Leadership, competitive, skilled, footwork, hops, defense, steals, he had everything. Most of his highlights have a story behind them. The flue game where he played sick. The 5 3-pointers in a half where the media said that Clyde Drexler is the better three point shooter. The shot where Jordan won against the Cavaliers. The dunk on Matumbo where Matumbo said that Jordan will never dunk on him and he did. Good video to watch is Michael Jordan - Air Jordan (Greatest Jordan Video on RUclips)
THE GREATEST OF ALLTIME.🐐🤷♂️ 6-0 IN THE FINALS, 6 FINALS MVPS, 5 REG SEASON MVPS, 10 TIME SCORING CHAMPION, 9 TIME 1ST TEAMM ALL DEFENSE, 1 DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR AWARD, REG SEASON ALLTIME LEADER IN PPG WITH 30.7 AND PLAYOFFS ALLTIME LEADER IN PPG WITH 33.6, TWO 3PEATS 91, 92, 93 AND 96, 97, 98 NBA CHAMPION. HE UNSTOPPABULL.🐐🤷♂️💪
And a 2 time gold medalist in the Olympics
And those 6 'chips were never on the line, no game 7, Dominating
@@GodsView1 real talk..
And more horror stories (from top tier players) than any other player.
I was born in 1985, about the time his pro career began. It didn't matter if you were a basketball fan or not, Jordan was an absolute icon in the mid to late 90's. Not only in America, but the entire world knew who Michael Jordan was (and always will). He was Tom Brady before Tom Brady. Hell, Tom Brady isn't even on that level!
Very well said! 👍👍👍
Your voice and your energy just makes the time with these vids fly by. Keep them coming
There's a reason why there's a song called "Like Mike".
Movie most importantly
Be Like Mike wasn't just an ad campaign, every little kid really did want to be like Mike at the time.
@@capo328 Tell me about it. I can remember being 4 years old and trying to convince my parents to address me as Michael Jordan for a week.
Some of the plays are great because who was guarding MJ or whoever was the recipient of his highlights. He was completely dominating NBA legends.
I grew up with Jordan. I mean I was in my college and post college years during the Bull's '90s dynasty run of 6 championships. Jordan was the most dominating player on the court during that era. He was 6'6" and an aggressive player that played with purpose. He was angry at himself when he failed a play.
There is a woman whose channel is Allure Vision who does reactions, the difference in the two is the other young lady looks at/goes over their stats before looking at the video, she familiarized herself with the subject, which means it's more informative,
You are absolutely right, iv watched her myself, and she is eye candy for sure, But your right she is thorough in her work,
Jordan Is THE legend, Greatest to ever play the Game 6 time champion Has so many records..Nike did Air Jordan for a reason Guy can fly and make it look so easy..Thanks Mrs Courtney and FWI your fluffy Hair looks great 👍
1:56
He’s not “really good”. He was the best to ever do it. The most complete player in Basketball history.
Her:wow his really good guys
Me:😂 yea well he’s the best basketball player of all time
Jordan was known for his dunks and dynamic lay ups, but he also had a mean jump shot. He could sink jump shots like nobody else.
Plus, he was first-team All Defense God knows how many times & won a few Defensive Player of the Year awards. All while averaging 30-plus a night.
Kobe is the goat "in my eyes" but watching Jordan highlights again brings a smile to my face, he is the greatest of all time and no one can say otherwise.
Jake From State Farm of course people can say otherwise.
The BEST thing about #15 @ the 9:33 mark is that the fact that it wasn’t even a “home” game. So imagine the New Zealand basketball team going to play somewhere else and the best player on that team getting THAT type of reaction from the “away” crowd.
He is Pele, Gretzky, Phelps, Ruth and Heiden. All in one.
Ronaldinho(soccer) and Bolt(track) are the other 2 for me. They made it seem so easy, and were usually smiling(or sticking out their tongue) while competing. All legends.
Nuff said !
There was just no one like him, he is the GOAT. Honor and privilege to watch him play throughout his career, great video

•In 1988, MJ earned: Dunk Champ, All Star Game MVP, NBA Scoring Title, League MVP and Defensive Player of the Year.
Michael in only ELEVEN complete seasons with the Bulls: -10 scoring titles, -Won Defensive Player of the Year, -9 times all defensive team, -9time All NBA, -5 league MVPs -6 finals MVPs
Mj has done in 11 seasons things Lebron hasn’t done and won’t do in his whole career…
And don't forget MJ is the all time leader in regular season ppg average and also in the playoffs. As a matter of fact, I believe MJ and Wilt are the only players to average over 30 ppg over their career.
Wow all those stats and yet Lebron is still better
That's what you call big facts!!!
@@toby2k75 LeBron is an incredible player, there's no denying that but a Jordan he is not. Watching Michael play against multiple future hall of fame talent was like a religious experience. No matter the circumstances, when the game was on the line, Jordan was the go-to guy to get the game winning shot at the buzzer. He was the greatest clutch player in history and he did it with class.
@@tarasshevchuk8091 you wish little teen
As the Bulls PA announcer loved to say during the 90's "At shooting guard. Standing 6'6". Froooom Charolette! North Carolina! MICHEAL! JOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRDAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!"
And the old Chicago Stadium... OMFG... when the announcer even just said "frrrrrrrommmm North... Carolina..." -- Jesus the roar in that old barn was absolutely deafening!
Everyone has different opinions on the best ever, but everyone will also have only one player in their top 5 all-time and that is MJ. In my own opinion he is the GOAT. The reason he made so many game winning shots is because their wasn't anyone else you
d rather take that shot. The man was CLUTCH!
Jordan was actually cut from his high school varsity team in 10th grade. ever since that moment he never gave up becoming the GOAT.
No 6 is always my favorite, how he fools a double team, turns around then beat the post defender. Not his airness, but the footwork, simply unstoppable.
My fave game winning shot was his 3pt shot against the Utah Jazz. He made the shot with his team down by 3 at the buzzer and got the foul to win the game.
Even the Bulls home introduction music was 🔥🔥🔥 back then. As soon as the lights went out and Sirius came on, the other team KNEW they were in trouble.
Finally got to Jordan!!! Yes, yes, yes!
Now you can do the other GOAT, Tom Brady!
Yessss :) :)
I’ll throw in another GOAT(s): Richard Petty and Ken Miles
Lebron=GOAT
@@hassanmohamud3096 Begone kid.
bjchit passed him in 2016
It's not just that he "liked doing" those mid air behind the back and flick moves, its that's he's the only one who could do them proficiently. Jordan's hoop awareness, hang time, and balance control were unparalleled and, as the announcers were heard saying, he did whatever it took to score and to win games
When u said "wow he's really good" .. he's the greatest NBA player ever :p
Watching MJ is watching a masterclass of basketball fundamentals. Jordan had the greatest talent combined with an unwavering work ethic. This man ran a 4.6 40 yard dash his rookie year, came back the next year running a 4.2 - 4.3 Mike had limitless gears. You took your game to the next level and Mike would take his to a level above yours, no matter who he was playing against. He's simply the greatest ever. Almost twenty years since he retired and in a recent poll he is STILL the most popular athlete in the U.S. He's a national treasure. I'm just grateful to have witnessed his career unfold in real time. His games hold a special place in my heart because my dad and I never missed a game on TV, we became very close because of that and I treasure those memories. Watch Kobe (rest in peace) next. If Jordan is 1 then Kobe is 1a. Just slightly below MJ but to me, he's the only guy you can mention in the same breath as Mike and Mike himself acknowledged it.
Was waiting for you to do this one. The plays were not ranked however. It was just a montage of his best moves in no particular order.
The early one you didn't understand was where Michael swatted the ball away from Patrick Ewing. It was a blocked shot.
Every one of these plays I watched as they happened, which will never be Underappreciated, and will always bring a tear of joy to my 👁
Michael Jordan is thought by many to be the most clutch player of any sport in any era. Lots of game winning shots.
mmmmmm greatest player, but I would say Bird had him in the clutch department.
"If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game I'd choose Michael Jordan; If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life... I'd take Larry Bird." - Pat Riley.
meaning life>a game
50 reasons why he is called his Royal airness aka superman aka black Jesus
aka the ringleader ( six of them).
Watching Jordan play was like watching a movie.. Get your popcorn and get ready for an epic finish
You never knew exactly what would happen, but you knew Jordan would win in incredible fashion
13:07 yea, there are games where they collapse 5 players on him and he would still score.
Your reaction to 32 was priceless! :D
Thank you for this video from this big Jordan fan. He was my childhood idol and in the 80s and 90s, everyone wanted to 'be like Mike". :)
Dude didn't even start playing on a team until college at UNC. He was a freak of nature. Best ever.
A lot of these top plays are more important with context, especially the game-winning shots. They are shots that won playoff series, a game in the NBA Finals, or championships. He was legendary for how competitive and ruthless he could be, as well as playing his best in the biggest moments.
Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time 🐐 this video doesn’t encompass MJs greatness, you should react to the videos made by Joseph Vincent, either The Greatest video or the Air Jordan one. 🔥
Patrick Ewing used to tell a story about being in the locker room during an all star game. Dikembe Mutombo said Jordan never dunked on him and everyone laughed and said it's coming. There's also a story abou Clyde Drexler saying he was a better shooter than Jordan and MJ responded by saying he never really had to shoot. He also went on to have a career shooting game the next time they played each other.
Hello Courtney, really enjoyed your video! Randomly found this video because I’m a huge fan of Michael Jordan and I’m a huge fan of New Zealand! I visited New Zealand a year ago to visit my friends and it was one of the best experiences of my life. Such a beautiful country and by far one of my favorite places! The north island was lovely and I can’t wait to visit South Island next time.
Hi Franklin! Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 awww thats so cool that you went to NZ, I’m really glad you enjoyed yourself! I’m from Wellington in the north island but South Island is definitely a must do for next time, I love Queenstown 😌
Courtney Coulston you’re very welcome! I stayed at Te Awamutu and got to visit Mt. Maunganui, waitomo caves, the hobbit set, rotorua, an abandoned gold mine and other random spots I can’t remember the name lol. I definitely can’t wait to visit the South Island. My friends over at New Zealand are like my family now. They got to visit Los Angeles for the first time a month ago so I showed them around which was fun. They were amazed at the food portions in America 😂. What a wonderful experience that was as well!
Sounds awesome! I haven’t done a lot of those things!
Hahaha! It’s cool that they got to go visit you in America too, I too can agree that the portion sizes in America are HUGE but I love it 🤟🏼🤣
Courtney Coulston Haha I seriously want a vacation home some day in NZ. Going for morning jogs/exercises and being outdoors is such an invigorating feeling over there. Oh by the way I really miss the minced pies 😂😂. I somehow got more fit during my two weeks vacation because the food portions were smaller and I loved it! What a major difference compared to the fast food chains in America. My friends’ reaction is something I’ll never forget when they got their food served. They were like, “this is mental... I could get used to this!” 😂
@@Darkclaw00700 omg mince pies haha. i almsot forgot about those since i've been in japan for so long. ahhh good times. did you try the butter chicken pie too? Also pretty popular in nz haha.
lmaooo YES that was exactly my reaction to the food portions in america too. i think i would get overweight pretty easily if i didn't control my habits properly lmao.
If you ever come back to NZ, you should totally make some youtube videos. it'll be so cool to see an American's perspective on stuff! :)
You have no idea how truly great this man was. Top 50 doesn’t even do him justice 💯GOAT
The 4 down votes came from Cleveland, Utah, New York and Cleveland again lol
Courtney said at 10:40.. She said "He gets a LOT of game winning baskets" ... Courtney meant that Michael Jordan is a CLUTCH PLAYER AND YES HE TRULY IS!! Courtney, you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT about it!! 😉😉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@Courtney Coulston I'd love to see you do a reaction video of any Brett Favre (pronounced Farve) compilation. When he retired he held every major record that can be held by quarterbacks in football (many of those records are now held by other quarterbacks). He wasn't the most gifted, he wasn't the fastest and he wasn't the biggest, but he was my favorite to watch because you never knew what he would do next. I promise he will blow your mind. He was known as the "gunslinger" because he would throw the ball anywhere on the field at any time. He was also the quarterback of my team, the Green Bay Packers, for many years...so I'm completely biased.
One thing about Michael Jordan dunking is that he elevates, he gets high, then gets higher, and just when you think you can't get any more higher he continues to rise.
Michael Jordan was the greatest player in the history of basketball no doubt, but you should react to his former teammate who was the best at... well let’s say “other stuff.” Look up a highlight reel for Dennis Rodman.
He was a lunatic and there will never be another player like him. He wasn’t known for scoring, but for being a physical defensive player who played mind games with his opponents. Definitely worth the watch. It’s different!
Agreed bro Rodman was such a pure athlete and competitor, and he knew how to get into peoples heads even without saying anything.
Courtney: He gets a lot of game-winning baskets.
MJ: That's when I took it personal.
So many of these have incredible back stories in incredible high pressure moments hence why they are rated so high
"Wow, he's really good" 😂 That's one way of putting it!
The 🐐.fun watching him play through his career.1988 slam dunk contest was one of the best of all time.
“wow, he’s really good, guys” hahaha
He won 10 NBA Scoring title that means he led the league in Scoring for a decade and also has the highest scoring average in his entire career with 30.12 PTS
I was born and grew up most my life in Chicago. Jordan is one year older than me. It was amazing to watch him play. The Bulls were at one time the only good team we could rout for in Chicago. Along with his natural talents what people rarely talk about was his incredible work ethic. He used to repeat a move over and over practicing lay ups for instance. For hours. His story is interesting. He's certainly not perfect. Some of his life is incredibly sad such as the senseless murder of his father.
He was the GOAT because he completely had his way with every superstar he went against for nearly his whole career. These were not scrubs, most of these teams had several hall of fame players on their rosters. He is the reason many of those superstars retired without a championship. His defense was legendary. Mike and Scottie would relish at teaming up on the defensive end and shutting down the other teams top players. And he could get you 50 points in a a game AND the game winning shot if you need it. I can't tell you that this is statistically correct, but I watched him personally hit more game winners than miss them. And by a large margin.
Just watching him play gives me goosebumps 😆
😆 lmao.9:03 what a silky segway and you didn’t even know it. As you were saying where’s he from? He was stealing the ball 🏀 from his hometown team( turquoise and white uniforms) The Charlotte Hornets 🐝. I love ❤️ it!!!!
Mike was clutch regular season, playoffs and finals.
Always fun watching people experience Jordan for the first time. Thanks for uploading this :)
Jordan is the greatest athlete to play any sport. His athleticism was one of a kind. His drive was unlike anyone else's. His hard work was unmatched. He literally had no weaknesses.
15:05 "He's gonna win another game, Isnt he?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When I was living in Auckland I remember we got Sky Tv in 1987 and come NBA basketball season we would be watching every Bulls game and if we missed any Bulls game we would tape the game. He is simply the best!
You should watch a video called Micheal Jordan the greatest ever
By Joseph Vincent?
@@that_one_dude5288 yes I had the title wrong fixed it. It's a good summary of his career
I remember watching a lot of these games. On the number 1 play, I jumped up off the couch when he stole it from Malone, and I don't think I blinked until he hit the game winning shot.
15:04 "Oh he's gonna win another game isn't he" - perfectly sums up MJ
This ain't nothing, this video does not do him justice. if y'all REALLY wanna see how truly godlike he is, search for Michael Jordan Fury, I believe there are 3 parts
He doesn't jump...He floats.
He soars
Glad to see that as the #1 play. It is my favorite play of his. He first had to steal the ball on the Bulls side of the court, then took it up to the Jazz side, waited and made his move. The Bulls were down the entire game, and I thought at the time they were done. If that series went to game 7, I was sure the Jazz would win. But the Jazz didn't have Michael.
Hey Courtney! You mentioned "he's so tall in comparison" but, at 6'6" (1.98m), he was actually very average for the NBA. There were players much, much taller trying to cover him. He seems so tall because of his incredible vertical jump, hence his nickname... "Air Jordan". Cheers.
