Dominique Wilkins: There Will Never Be Another Michael Jordan

[mjnmjd]

I agree Kobe is not even the best right now let alone catch up to Jordan...lol not even close..

And BTW... there will never be another Dominique either..

[tyrekethefreak]

Kobe aint even the best right now. He's good and i would put him in the top 5 right now. But im not putting him in front of durrant or james thats for sure. Kobe is overrated.

[R3Lax1]

Well, I'm a Kobe fan, but asking "Did Kobe surpass MJ" is just ridiculous.... same as you Elie.

[evanos7]

HA,HA,HA.....Koby surpass M.Jordan...??...HA,HA,HA

watch Jordan playing at 40 and understand why-as said by Mr H.H.film- he is at another..'atmosphere'

or from another universe!

[fanofb2m07]

2:06 You are so right Dominique "It's too easy"

Blake jumped over the front hood of the car. I would understand if he had jumped over the entire car.

[wile1701]

maybe in your dreams elle!

[crayrayc]

Hey Elie you should listen to what a real NBA PLAYER is telling you. the era back then is way tougher than it is now and Kobe can't manage to even come close to MJs stats in a EASIER league. Stop comparing them and def stop trying to make Kobe the greatest cause he simply in reality is not!

[mathsteacher45]

in 2010-11 season, your "greatest" kobe wasn't even in the top 5 of all main rankings, (PPG, RPG, APG, steals, etc) but kobe is the greatest to you elie !!!!!!!!

[somadeluxe3]

hey why are you still reporting? your questions have no depth, your questions are not compelling and you are biased. why do you continue to ask ignorant questions? please, find a another hobby. thank you and have a nice day

[gip1279]

Stop it Ellie. We know you are the biggest Kobe fan but stop embarrassing yourself asking that question. Jordan is the greatest so far and I'd put Kobe around 6.

[danyolooy]

Elie Seckbach: What was your take on Blake Griffin jumping over a car? Why didn't you do something like that?

Human Highlight Reel: Too easy.

Thumbs up if you agree with the slam dunk legend himself.

[24jhunory]

LMAO!!!!BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!­!!! Cant imagine Elie's face when Dominique says MICHAEL JORDAN IS......MICHAEL JORDAN is in another atmosphere!!!! hahahaha !!!! BEST EXAMPLE OF " IN YOUR FACE!""

[mathsteacher45]

hey elie suckballs, just imagine your so-called kobe playing against tough defense like the 1992 knicks' one !!! he would have his ass kicked and cried as a little boy. "even kobe ??!!!"

elie you're a real expert in basketball !!!! lol

[24jhunory]

@mathsteacher45 Couldnt agree more...and not to mention the PISTON BadBoys...who almost hammer MJ everytime that he drives to the baset.

[RohoicRamz94]

Lmao!!after Wilkens said Jordan was in another atmospshere Elie edited the tape.Lmao!!!Elie hes the worst type of sports fan.

[moneyman237952]

Dominique would have shit on griffin in a slam dunk contest. Jordan by far is better than Kobe has ever been and now that he's on the downside of his career he will never surpass Mike.

[rase808]

Michael Jordan played during a time when Big men dominated the league. You had your baby Shaq, Robinson, Moses, David Robinson, Hakeem, Ewing, Kareem, etc

There are no big men in today's NBA. Today's game is more finesse and speed. I love Kobe's game. There is no doubt he is the most all around in the game today. If he were to play in Michaels Era, he will probably do great. But Greater than Michael? Nope.

Kobe is a Poor man's michael. He's only slightly better than Michael in 3 pt shooting

[blackadam06]

@rase808

"Michael Jordan played during a time when Big men dominated the league"

So what were guys like Isiah, Magic, Bird, Dominique, Alex English, and later a PRIME: Sprewell, JR Rider, Gary Payton, Mitch Richmond, Steve Smith, Glenn Rice, Grant Hill & Penny (B4 the injuries), Eddie Jones, Michael Finley, Allan Houston, etc..

This is a era of "speed & finesse", but that's due to the rules being changed to FAVOR perimeter players, which has resulted in a faster & perimeter oriented game.

[emacqlet]

There will never be another MJ. Show me one player in today's NBA when he walks into an arena and no one in the arena takes their eyes off him. MJ was the total package, he could do whatever he wanted to do on the court. Keep this in mind, MJ was better than the best and he still went out and proved night in and night out why he was the greatest NBA player of all time.

[24jhunory]

@emacqlet very well said....maybe the youngster of today can claim that that #8 BRYANT CRY BABY has equal talent as MJ has in Bball...but what he CANT COPY CAT IS THE FACT THAT MICHAEL JORDAN'S aura of GREATNESS...that even playing in an opposite team most of the time the crowd is chanting his name..not to mention's MJ ability to carry his team at times twhen they needed him the most.

MJ = GOAT

[emacqlet]

[RohoicRamz94]

I had to come back 24 minutes later just to laugh at Elie again I bet Nique let all the air out of his blimp with that one.

[RohoicRamz94]

Funny thing is..when the Lakers got swept Elie didnt even do a "what went wrong video" lmao!

[alexthegreekfreak]

Kobe is great but Michael is from another planet! Who agrees with me?

[wornoutshoes11]

do we really need to give our own opinion if kobe will ssurpass MJ? that is the dumbest question ever even after an nba legend had answered it with authority!? who the fuck are we to have an opinion about the matter. this ellie character needs an ass whopping!

[wornoutshoes11]

dominique's facial reaction said it all... MJ = GOAT! kobe is just a mere earthling, JORDAN plays universal hoops...

[blackadam06]

@wornoutshoes11

Your comment reminds me of a joke I saw from another poster. He said: "MJ was able to break the laws of gravity. Kobe can only break man's law" LOL!!

[wornoutshoes11]

@blackadam06 exactly bro! thats the only thing that's he's breaking LOL. its really a lame argument to be honest. to mention "kobe who?" with the same sentence with MJ is blasphemous... much more, claim that he's the closest thing to the GOAT is simply outrageous... i was hoping nique would smack this ellie character's head off LOL...

[boredfun91]

Elie is such an idiot. MJ was a better scorer, rebounder, passer, defender, had less turnovers, fouls, and shot a better percentage. This comparison is just stupid. Not to mention he has Kobe killed on accolades and playoff performances.

[Wade3KG]

there will never be another jordan but that doesnt mean there cant be someone better than him

[VinmanMJ23]

@Wade3KG

Maybe a better player will come along and maybe not. If one does, it will be great and I will enjoy watching him play, but so far no one has been better and no one is on the radar right now who looks like they might be better.

[preo2]

@primenemisis That's right, there's only ONE Michael Jordan, the rest are just imitators. Just like there was only ONE Bruce Lee. How many guys did we see trying to copy Bruce Lee's style? NOBODY got it right out of all the imitators! There was no one like Bruce just like there's no one like MJ.

[alexthegreekfreak]

@preo2 Yeah I agree with you...But I think that Bruce Lee would hate the word style...cuz JKD is a concept...anyway I still get your point...and I think u r right...and that's why Brandon tried to steer away from that path of imitating his father...

[preo2]

@primenemisis Exactly! Kobe claims that Magic was his idol coming up yet he copies Jordan in EVERYTHING! Even the way he speaks! People have to realize that Jordan is in a class by himself. Kobe, Lebron, D-Wade, and the rest of them are not on MJ's level as great as they are.

[StackedDeck678]

Let's see Kobe retire and take 3 more.

[VinmanMJ23]

Check out the look Dominique gives him at the 2:00 mark. He's like, "Are you fucking kidding me with that ridiculous question?"

[veetour]

They will find a way to make a clone of Michael Jordan one day. I bet on that.

[VinmanMJ23]

@veetour Someone needs to be freezing his sperm like they do with thoroughbred horses.

[THETOYOTAable]

no, close no, not even close yes.

[kilagon10]

This guy Elie is so fuckin annoying, he needs to get Kobe's cock out of his mouth...Kobe never has been, or ever will be better than JORDAN...And stop asking those ridiculous 9 year old questions to professional athletes, you look and sound like a Moron...I don't know why they let you in those events, you're the worst at your job.

[mathsteacher45]

@kilagon10 very well said !! this elie is a foolish who doesn't know anything in basketball !!!

[reggiemillerapimp]

@kilagon10 well said

[mdude101]

@kilagon10 lol

[Mietas23]

There you have it. I don't know who else must speak on this so called "debate" with MJ and Kobe. So please get off Kobe's nuts and STOP IT ALREADY.

Kobe Bryant is a great player, def a future hall of famer and still the best today's wack ass NBA has to offer BUT HE IS NOT MICHAEL JORDAN.

MICHAEL AIR JORDAN WAS, IS AND WILL BE THE GREATEST SHOOTING GUARD, THE GEATEST PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF BASKETBALL AND THE GREATEST ATHLETE IN PRO SPORTS EVER! FACE IT.

[oneindachamber]

It seems like people always want to compare someone to another player and thats cool but why compare Kobe, Lebron, or Wade to Jordan. Leave that comparison ALONE. Matter of fact dont even THINK about it let alone talk about it. MJ IS THE GOAT. PERIOD

[iekhel]

unselfish basketball......that's what I can describe MJ.....and yet...simply the best......^_^

[ANDREvan12]

pippen was high when he said james is the greatest ever to play the game smh

[irod13]

@ANDREvan12 He didn't say he was, he said he "may be". 

[molasda]

Mj The Greatest !!

[americanbandwidth]

Kobe Bryant gets to play in a league with a Zone Defense and Touch Fouls.

Michael Jordan had to beat the Pistons just to play for a Title.

There hasn't been a team like the Pistons of the early '90's since the early '90's.

MVP, Most Steals, Defensive Player of the Year, Scoring Champion, Slam Dunk Champion, All-Star MVP, All-Defensive First Team...

All in 1 Season, 1988.

This is not a real debate.

[americanbandwidth]

Michael Jordan is the best player of any sport I have ever seen.

Never has Such ability and want to win been in the same person.

"Lombardi had the Will and Ali had the Skill, Jordan Had the Thrill that owns us all Today" -J1

[uberathlete]

lolz Ellie I know you like Kobe but dude you gotta accept the fact that he ain't on MJ's level. It's nothing to be ashamed of.

[jimmychuang]

"EVEN KOBE???"

Man what are you thinking? What are you thinking???

Could Kobe take his team to higher level when they lack of motivation? No way, we all saw this season or 08 season, many times Kobe lost himself when his team were under pressure.

And then you see MJ's career, the Bulls struggled for 7 yrs, and then they become unstoppable. Many times the bulls lost their motivation facing problems but MJ led the team to overcome all those problems! That's HUGE difference.

[Paniro123]

Also Elie is a useless hack that needs to retire and GTFO. YOU HEAR ME ELIE?!!! YOURE NOTHING BUT A BUM!!!

[Paniro123]

@ghiblix2 I have read some of the argument that you two are having and im just curious about who you think is better. Bryant or MJ? I know who he thinks is better because I have seen him argue on other vids. I am also not here to argue btw people are dead set on these kind of things and I dont waste my time arguing with people anymore.

[Ryzon28]

Man Elie i hate you bro LOL u get to talk to guys i watched as a kid man Nique chiiiiiiet dude back in the early 80's we only got 1 game a week in new zealand bro...Now Kobe is GOOD but honestly man to me personally hes not even as good as Pippen LOL

[Mraloneandsad]

elie suckbag

[VinmanMJ23]

This guy is a bigger Kobe Bryant jock sniffer than Mark Jackson. Can't stand his interviews. Kobe isn't even close to Michael Jordan. Do a side by side comparison of their statistics and you'll see that it's a complete joke that they're even compared to each other.

[williest1]

Without Mike there would BE NO KOBE! Kobe is Kobe BECAUSE of Mike!!! Larry Bird in his prime - one of the best players of all time, playing for one of the greatest teams of all time said that MJ was 'God playing basketball'....

NO ONE SAYS SHIT LIKE THAT ABOUT KOBE! LOL

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

"You are just impossible to teach"

I only learn from my peers, all others I teach. A idiot like U can teach me nothing..

The only advantage eFG% offers is that it adjusts for the fact that a 3pt FG is worth 1 more pt than a 2pt FG, but in essence it operates as one's FG% does.

[jimmychuang]

@blackadam06 yeah and MJ has higher eFG and TS% than Kobe while he dropping more points and more assists per game with less turnovers....

I guess, MJ win.

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

Idiots like U despise box scores, stats or more specifically FG%, because U KNOW it's the TRUEST stat that speaks to just how efficient or inefficient a player is as a shooter & scorer.

This stat has NO adjustments, skipped possessions or taken away missed shots, and is simply the BEST indicator of how a player performed offensively during live play, and is also why EVERY league expert uses it.

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

"Box scores are post game simple summaries"

They're accounts of what actually happened and reflect in-game performance. So if you consider that not worthy of "being used", then you're a moron..

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

Keep on denying the facts bro, and somebody will eventually call U on it, such as the case here..

"It never ends with you"

No, it never ends with dumb asses like yourself. That's WHY longtime knowledgable fans constantly kill U guys wack ass arguments.

"Box scores are the be all/end all with you"

No, but they PROVE what I say, unlike your misinformed, ignorant ass opinions..

FACTS > dumb opinions all day, everyday

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

I only state the facts, something idiots like yourself seem to have a SERIOUS disdain for.

It's a sad & pathetic day when we have morons like U who claim that the literal RESULTS from the on-court efforts (play) of players, somehow is "lying" to us, and then proceed to try to inject your opinions in place of them, as to what's true & valid about their play in that game/series/season.

No kid, why don't U take your dumb ass somewhere & finish playing with your damn coloring books..

[beantown78]

Is this a joke? Kobes a great player true ability and killer instinct the closest to mike I've seen but its hard to argue whether he's better(he's not) being that mike played against some of the greatest players of all time and made them all look silly never lost in the finals either while always being clearly the best player on his team shyyyyyt if doesn't retire the first time bulls might have won 8titles n a row

[blackadam06]

@ghiblix2

There's NEVER been a time when stats don't matter or tell us something specifically for the most part. U sound about as ignorant as kenny smith saying that bullsh*t...SMH

The final score of a game is a stat!

So are ya gonna tell me that if 1 team winds up with more pts at the end of a game, that it's a lie to say they won? Are ya gonna tell me that Shaq's consistently bad FT%'s isn't an indication that he's horrible at FT shooting?

That comment in itself is what's a damn lie..

[blackadam06]

"We did that (scoring) when you could hand check and aggressively defend. I just couldn't imagine what I'd be able to do if you [couldn't touch me]. As far as guys like kobe, melo, lebron and wade, with the [old] defensive rules, they could be slowed down, but with these new rules, you have no chance."

-- Dominique Wilkins; The Starting Five: "Nique was more than just a highlight" April 20, 2010

Hey "sucksack", kobe can't even consistently put up better #s with easier rules so how's he better?

[m5guan10]

Hell Naw!!!! Never be MJ in is Fucking Life

[Jumpman1989]

just look at Wilkins face when he says MJ is on another atmosphere. The look on his face tells it all

[calabis]

Go look at his playoff performances Kobe ain't passing shit

[rsx2]

Let's put it this way. There will never ever be another Kobe NUT-HUGGER, as big as Elie. how bout that. give it a rest Elie.

[joseucr23]

"KB is great, but Michael is on another atmosphere..." DAMN... YOU´RE RIGHT NIQUE!

[dixie11]

@ghiblix2 You haven't told me anything new, my comment was centered around people beating the MJ to Kobe comparison, i chose a comparison statistic directly from NBA.COM if its good enough for it to be posted on their website, ill go ahead and state it in my comment, is that enough of an explanation for you or would you like for me to detail it even more?? lol

[scottie2333]

Hey man please get over the fact that "your boy" kobe isn't even in the same stratosphere as Jordan ok. Just except that. 

[scottie2333]

This guy interviewing him is a moron. Knows nothing about the game.

[clumsyninjascorner]

Michael Jordan was a level above everyone.

[cyncitys13]

Kobe will pass Michael Jordan WHEN he gets his 7th ring.

[ShirtOffLJay]

haha "too easy"

[iluvrei]

hi elie~~ lov wtching ur vids esp Manny Paquiao's!

tnx man

[iluvrei]

lol...i love domique!!!

[esemaniac13]

hurrr they'll never be another Jordan , Ali , Woods pretty sure there will be with the last generation fanboys die off

[dixie11]

yea elie we get the point, you live in Los Angeles and want to show Love to the Lakers and to Kobe, but the top comments here are right about your simplistic questions to these hall of fame ballplayers..The human highlight prob thinks hes the best player ever to live deep inside, hes a competitor..and youre asking high school level questions that have been killed to death by thousands of people..Even Kobe??? yes ELIE EVEN KOBE...50% simple stat, thats jordans field goal percentage..kobe 45%

[seckzmachine]

jordan never went home empty handed from a finals series....and jordan was a WAY better defender. the only edge i give to kobe is 3pt shooting. jordan was a better scorer in a tuffer league... back when basketball was a mans game.

[KASHLAMDA]

MJ = Statistically PROVEN to be the greatest player ever. Not just an opinion.

[ranzfays]

there might be no another michael jordan, but there will be a player who is better than michael jordan.. LEBRON JAMES

[FuneralForCassie]

@ranzfays oh???? you must really a big fan...ahahaha pathetic..

[oikpaze1]

... Jordan is untouchable, Kobe Bryant is Ellie Seckbach's god.

[JDragwidge]

People! Stop hating on Elie and Kobe. No there will not be another MJ, but take your HATE somewhere useful.

[TheBlockrockinbeat]

there will never be another Kobe Bryant fo sho!

[archidexterous20]

Kobe Bryant is very talented all around player but Michael Jordan is the gifted one !!!

[moneymeng1988]

just think of it like this...when u think about the number 23 whats the first thing u think of?..when u think of the number 8 or 24, whats the first thing that comes to your mind?

[buloy99]

"Even Kobe???" LoL you're such a douche, Elie. Your infatuation with Kobe worries me lol. Give it up, man. Kobe is great, but MJ is the absolute best.

[kilagon10]

@buloy99...You are absolutely right...JORDAN was, is, and always will be the greatest player that ever played the game.

[VinmanMJ23]

@buloy99 A classic example of a fanboy WANTING Kobe to be better than MJ, and an NBA great setting him straight.

[Crocodile2345]

@buloy99 Seriously. How crappy was that "Even Kobe?" statement????????????

[Kevinsuperior13]

There's only one Michael Jordan, and only one Kobe Bryant. STOP ASKING ELLIE.

[MrSpacecowboy1]

Kobe will go down as a top 20 NBA player of all time thats a fact Kobe gets alot of Hype like Rose those 2 players have missed so many shots this yeer But Im not saying Kobe sucks Im the biggest Kobe fan couse I like the Lakers back in the day anyone infront of Kobe would get teabaged lol thats for sure!!

[alfonzie]

kobe is bigger than michael jordan.. that's a fact..

bryant is 6 7 and mj is 6 6

[blackadam06]

@alfonzie

Kobe's not 6'7..SMH

basketball-reference . com/players/b/bryanko01.html <--- kobe's official listing

[BrentWoodSean38]

"did Kobe Bryant surpass Michael Jordan?"

LMFAO, is that supposed to be a joke?, numbers don't lie, compare and contrast, and you will clearly see that Kobe hasn't passed Shit. Even if Kobe becomes a 7 time champion, surpassing Jordan's 6, he still won't be pass Jordan, because the first three are tainted.

[chilikongkwoila]

@ESNEWS ELIE, KOBE WAS NEVER BETTER THAN MJ ALRIGHT. MJ IS THE GREATEST BASKETBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME.

[redskins2k]

cough Kobe, cough Kobe, there will never be another Jordan because guys like Dominque were not competitive enough to challange him

[bosdurgen74]

@redskins2k are you really trying to say guys like dominique, charles barkley, isaiah thomas, john stockton, karl malone, larry bird, patrick ewing, reggie miller, dennis rodman, david robinson, hakeem olajuwon, shawn kemp, gary peyton, chris mullin, magic johnson, tim hardaway, anfernee hardaway, shaq oneal, clyde drexler etc etc were not competitive enough to challenge jordan but the players of today are??? thats a very laughable comment so laughable that i'll take it as you were just joking

[popeyeisgood]

@bosdurgen74

yea he is just another dumb fuck sucking kobe's cock all day. it is sickening.

[SmokinBluntzzz]

Legend right here, he's right in every aspect

[gagoshay]

true...very true...so stop comparing ROSE to MJ...ROSE can be compared to ISIAH THOMAS but not MJ.

[tupark82]

@gagoshay how is rose comparable to thomas. when rose learns to pass the ball like a dominant pg is supposed to, then you can compare him to the great thomas. cp is the only player worth comparing to thomas in this current era.

[Demoniiiic]

nvr? lol

[tupark82]

elie someday you will get over the fact that kobe in his absolute prime could only sniff the level of michael jordan and stop asking these players that know better these awkward questions they probably feel silly about even having to answer to.

[ZillaKillaGuy]

nice vid eli
