From Nov 1991 until he retired from the Bulls in ‘98, a Jordan-helmed Chicago never lost 3 games in a row. 626 straight games. Jordan has held the playoff high of 63 points far longer than Baylor held the previous record of 61. Impossible to fathom as defense has disappeared in the past 5 years.
I believe michael jordan did that elbow dunk in the contest in the late 80's, vice carter didnt come into the league until the late 90's so actually got it from Jordan, im in my 50's so I remember
MJ has an average of 5.3 APG per the whole career. In 88-89 plays more games (24 in the regular season + some others in the playoff) as the point guard and he was averaging 30 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds (and this in the conditions that in the last matches before the playoffs, the coach introduced him under 30 minutes per match). In the first game as a point guard, he has 15 assists. In the direct match with the Lakers, he had more assists than Magic.
Jordan wasn't great as a professional baseball player by any means, but what pisses me off is that 1) he was held to his greatness as a NBA player and for some reason he was expected to be that great as a baseball player too!! 2) Michael Jordan retired from basketball, walked off the Hardwood and on to a professional baseball team despite the fact that he hadn't played baseball since his junior year of highschool and made the cut and the Triple A roster!! Name me 1 other athlete in the history of any profession sport who won 3 straight Championships and they retired from the sport where they couldn't be touched skills wise by anyone they played with or against then retired to pursue their dead father's dream he had for him growing up and then walk onto a professional team in a sport they hadn't played since he was 17 years old and is now 34 year's old and made the starting roster and then retired from his secondary sport to rejoin his basketball team again and still was the greatest player in that sport bar none and then messed around and 3 peated AGAIN and then retired for a second time only to return at the age of 39 or 40 yrs old and join the worst team in that league and turn that team into a playoff contender despite the fact that he was the only significant addition to that team and turn that team from the worst team with one of the worst defenses in the league into a top 10 defense and he did every bit of that with basically 1 knee and missing the tip of his index finger on his shooting hand!!!! NOBODY AT ANY TIME IN ANY SPORT EVER DID ANYTHING REMOTELY CLOSE TO THAT!!!! So I'm sick of hearing about him being a horrible baseball player because to this day NOBODY HAS EVER DONE ANYTHING CLOSE TO WHAT MICHAEL JORDAN ACCOMPLISHED IN THE HISTORY OF PRO SPORT'S PERIOD!!!!!
@@timmorales1569 people need to learn how to separate "My favorite player" from "The Greatest Player Ever"!! Larry Johnson and Kevin Garnett are my favorite NBA players but they're not better than Michael Jordan!! My game was most like the way Grandma-ma aka Larry Johnson played which is why he's my favorite but Jordan is untouchable!! In baseball Jordan has a batting average of something like .228 give or take which isn't horrible but when put into perspective of everything I listed and he only played professional baseball for a little over 1 season before the MLB lockout happened and for him to even do what he did was absolutely a miracle!! Baseball was my best sport to play so far as how good I was on the field so I know what it takes to accomplish what Jordan was able to accomplish in a very short time for the White Sox D3 team
@@curtayars7344 I agree 💯 but jordan just so happens to be my favorite player. I wore his number all through school. Back in the day there were many to chose from with all the legends they had. My brothers was also LJ. When I was younger so many kids had their own favorite player bc of the reason you said it matched their game but they all knew who the goat was and it wasn’t ever a comparison. There was no confusion on who was the best in the league and Jordan always held his self to the standard of greatness even when he spoke.
@@timmorales1569 I was referring to the Leflop James fan's who feel like if they admit that Jordan is far better than James ever was or will ever be then he can't be their favorite player anymore. I wasn't referring to you specifically
He doesn't usually try to dominate immediately, he'd just go off when they need the score, usually on the 4th qrt, or when he has taken something personally 😂. Also, if you've seen old games, during his 1st couple of years, MJ had a lot of great passes that were not converted and he found that he had to takeover because he hated losing, that habit carried over to his later years.
Love your reaction to the goat new sub all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦👊 The players you mentioned in the beginning all call MJ the goat Larry having called him God disguised as a basketball player tells you all you need to know 🤷🏽♂️
Well that's a misconception that Jordan didn't pass because everyone just focuses on his offensive highlights. He averaged a triple double when he played point for the Bulls, averaged 11 assists in the 91 finals, has a career high of 17 assists & also averaged 8 assists one season. You need to check out his passing video
@@KingGreatnessKG this one , its long but watch it and people know what it was when you watched the greatest ever play! ruclips.net/video/5ofWv1DGPSg/видео.htmlsi=9qN7p-x2A2_DQQcS
They can. I was actually a big fan early in his career, until the not 1, not 2, not 3... LeFlop just annoys me with his corny antics, then people praise him for it. He was coddled from day 1. Great player, but no Goat.
Agreed. But he got some haters when he said: "That made me the GOAT". He forgot that he didnt just praise himself - he also devalued alot of former greats in same sentence. Other potentiel GOAT players have never said that sentence for that reason.
The Pistons' entire defense was set up to stop Michael Jordan. That's the real reason why Dumars was effective against him. Because there were always help defenders and enforcers there to back him up whenever Jordan would get by him.
Did you catch the moment Rodman punches Jordan while Zeke tackles mikes head and shoulders? The tackle is really distracting and most people miss the punch.
I'm not sure ill go check...its during the section in Voyager 1 where they show the hard fouls... Pistons game (obviously)... it's about halfway through that section. Sorry I'll check the time.. Brb...
@KingGreatnessKG its almost exactly at 10.00. I didn't see it until I watched someone click through frame by frame only because Zekes tackle is so distracting... Rodman is directly in front of Jordan (with Zeke on his head) and Rodman punches Jordan in the chest. Almost simultaneously. Once you see it, then you can't miss it. Can't believe I watched it multiple times and missed it!
Yeah Vince dunked all the way down to his elbow in a dunk contest and then hung there. Magic was great but in his early career he wasn’t even the best player on his team ( Kareem) so he can’t be in the goat conversation. He was still otherworldly, but he can’t enter the GOAT conversation.
if you watch whole games from the 80's especially against the pistons you would see why MJ took it on himself to make bad shots when he was double and triple teamed! No disrespect to Scottie or Horace but i've watched them grow and both of them never made it to be mentally strong to finish the play. They were awesome at defending(Pip) and rebounding (Horace) but they were never dependable scorers. And even so MJ learned to share the ball, just look at him in the stretch he was put at the point, or just check his '91 finals stats against the Lakers when he was coached to involve more his team mates after the game one loss! Better watch the whole series as well as the '93 finals against the suns. Just observe the production of the Pippen-Grant duo that after these many years went on a crusade against him! Even though nobody would ever know them or at least remember them after 30 years if it was not for MJ! Don't believe me, just watch the games! Anyway, nice observations and reaction! And btw i watched Kobe and for me personally he was the closest to ever get to MJ and he kept me interested in the NBA formore than a decade, but growing up watching MJ i never saw anything that i've already seen before, so for that reason and some other lesser ones i have them MJ at top and Kobe at number two spot. Good luck with your channel!
Watch that clip again.. Where or who well he pass that ball he's literally alone there with those 4 opposite team..get some glasses man.. I agree on anything on those situations what u are saying i get that.. But that no man get some glass man and watch it again.. 😂
Jordan Kareem Russell Magic Bird Wilt Kobe Lebron Hakeem Shaq That’s the real top ten right there And yes, that’s the gap between MJ and the rest of them
And theres supposed to be some kinda debate goin on?? 😂 Please. This video highlights MJ's hang time / layup package. But no dunks really... MJ's historic bulls mixtape has all the craziest posters he pulled on all the greatest bigs.
Love Larry, but neither he nor Magic had the physical gifts to "hero ball" their team past above average or great competition on a routine basis, like MJ could. Only four people have ever averaged over 40ppg in a playoff series. MJ is one of those people. But MJ is the only person to do it multiple times. And he did it FIVE times! MJ hero balled his 47 win Bulls team past a 57 win Cavs team in '89. MJ hero balled his Bulls team past a very talented Suns team in the '93 Finals by averaging 41ppg. Bird, as great as he was, was outplayed by his own teammate in the 1981 Finals, and failed to win Finals MVP. No one ever outplayed MJ in a playoff series. Neither opponent or teammate. The only exception may be Terry Cummings, who outscored MJ by 1 point in the 1985 playoffs when MJ was a rookie. It's fitting that Magic and Bird played on talented teams for most of their careers. They played great team ball. But are there times in a championship series when the teammates just don't have it. Like in the flu game or the 98 Finals game 6. There are times when you need to hang onto Superman's cape, and watch him take you over the finish line. And in that aspect, Michael Jordan very rarely, ever disappointed!

Thank you so much for this incredible reaction!
Thanks for watching ❤️
He threw down on everybody.
Nobody has had a 3000 point season since Jordan. They don't have to deal with all the ruff stuff now and still nobody has done it.
over 3000 points, over 200 steals, over 100 blocks in one season...
Even with the three point shot been so much more prevalent today than MJ'S era. Put that in context.
Others can imitate but #Mike put the #Air in basketball and changed the world view #Forever #TheGOAT✨
In the late 80s and the 90s, there was both emphasis on real defense and tough play.
MJ has an average of 5.3 APG per the whole career.
In 88-89 plays more games (24 in the regular season + some others in the playoff) as the point guard and he was averaging 30 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds (and this in the conditions that in the last matches before the playoffs, the coach introduced him under 30 minutes per match). In the first game as a point guard, he has 15 assists. In the direct match with the Lakers, he had more assists than Magic.
Backboard Liquefied.
Never seen a backboard look like it turned into a waterfall like that.
If he passes the ball and you don't make it he don't pass to you again
