Michael Jordan's Speech Part 1

[KEYC2009]

If he was classless he would have never thanked anyone he would have said he done it all, all you haters stfu I liked his speech you can't be the best if you don't think you are the best

[TobeyStarburst]

Worst speech of all time what a piece of garbage this guy is. Watch Jonny Stockton for a real man not a child's acceptance speech.

[andreaaa8000]

in the meanwhile in africa, kids can't eat anything or drink anything.

[Bagoumba]

@andreaaa8000 WTF ?

[DOw0rkk]

Greatest HOF speech of all-time.

[RedDeadMaster1000]

I scared the shut outta him that was so unexpected

[pacman491]

haha scottie pippen disliked this video

[iwaneatmeat]

MJ > KOBE*3

[maxmllions]

I take back my previous comment.

KB24 is the best player ever. If MJ were still around he would be shaking in his boots

Go KObe!!

[calvinandhobbesrocks]

@maxmllions Can't tell if stupid

Or REALLY stupid.

[maxmllions]

Man i love MJ. He is the best. So much better than Kobe

[MrProtuber]

lololo!! put CC SUbtitles on!! so funny

[MrProtuber]

Kobe > Jordan

[VOD713]

Nice Rodman was there

[mmaxsters]

the greatest player ever in basketball history, a global icon

[ADSONIC27]

is he so funny because he kept saying thankyou until 1:30

[JohnLesterB]

who is KB24?? all i know is MJ23 is the greatest

[maxmllions]

KB24 is the greatest

[wtfRoach]

all you weak minded people need to get your pussy personalities out of here.

the beauty of this speech is that mike is the only one who couldve made it.

HE WAS THE GREATEST EVER WHY CANT HE SAY HES THE GREATEST AND TALK ABOUT HOW HE BECAME BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE?

the beauty of it is none of your opinions matter and he is still the greatest ever,

who gives a flying fuck if it was a little arrogant,

IF MICHEAL JORDAN CANT BE ARROGANT WHO CAN?

[epicphailures]

@wtfRoach couldn't of said it better myself, all these sensitive pricks need to grow some balls, he was speaking the truth in this video ! i love him . G.O.A.T

[MontecristoDF]

GREAT!!!!...... TO THE LAST

[22starfan]

all the respect to mj 23 but i still have no respect to his sons

[kalloused]

I love Jordan...but very unclassy speech

[kalloused]

I love Jordan, but that really was a classless speech.

[inertial8]

Certainly one of the greatest player of all time. But classless speech.

[blaq7427]

ur just a jordan hater. Get a life!

[inertial8]

Actually, I always had a good impression of the man...until this speech.

You obviously can't tell the difference between a hall of fame speech and....

a stupid speech.

[blaq7427]

exactly what was so terrible about this speech?

[kalloused]

His arrogance,cockyness it's very unclassy. The Hall of fame is an honor and you should be humbled and all he is saying is "Oh, I was better than these guys and I was pissed about it, Leroy smith still sucks at basketball..blah blah" he should have been humbled like stockton,sloan and robinson

[blaq7427]

He said that he might not be as good as magic or bird so how is that cocky? He was just thanking people in his life and career that pushed him to be great. That should be obvious to everyone

[aiv14]

THE greatest of all-time.

[SuzanneASutton]

Gracious. The man is a gem. Gracious and real.

[drdglover]

I love a class act, I didn't see it here.

[flyinghotwing]

j. a. adande, from espn, is more righteous in his perspective than wokjudickski when he says the following!

"If you enjoyed all of Jordan's acrobatic feats, his scoring outbursts and (most of all) his clutch performances, then you can't say you were disappointed in his attitude upon finally reaching basketball's Olympus. They're inseparable. You don't get Jordan the G.O.A.T. without the E-G-O. You don't get his triumphing-his using every sleight -- real or perceived -- to motivate himself."

[flyinghotwing]

just one more thing, i think anyone who wants to criticize jordan now did not really appreciate his greatness on the court, otherwise STFU!

[joblagz]

jordan has the bragging rights and yall know that.. however it is very very clear that he doesnt overdo it like a hard ass fckin nigga with bad attitude like kobe..

[flyinghotwing]

thank you big heads are big head egos, it goes with the territory of greatness, bird magic all of them were fantastic competitors and they express themselves differently and the same at the same time, the greatest of all time has bragging rights and then some..listen to what adande says>

[flyinghotwing]

jordan teased leroy smith and told the coach you made a mistake dude...whats the big deal, leroy shaking his head laughing while clapping....i dont see what the big deal is, besides that wajoakrodickski sucks ass if he would rather point out HOW MJ should have spoken and given his speech, fuck that asshole, let the great one speak how he wants and get over it, not the other way around!

[smiley92wku]

Thanks for posting this, I was unable to see it live.

[slh23]

I grew up idolizing this guy but Wojnarowski is correct. Jordan had the perfect opportunity to be gracious, thankful and reflective, and to show that he has forged on in life. That the past is the past and the battles he fought are won, remembered, but moved past. Yet he takes potshots at those not in a position to respond - and the comment to his children "I'd hate to be you guys" (!) Are you serious? Certainly the greatest player of all time, sadly a flawed character.

[flyinghotwing]

i say fuck wojokowdickski and all the haters, they want to nitpick what jordan said etc..who cares...his tone was nice, he cried, thanked pippen and his family, the two most important parties to thank professionally and personally, and if u want a nice guy then you get a nice player, to be the very best you have to be a prick to some extent, like kobe is now, but so the fuck what, i cant stand people who want to criticize the very best, fuck the high school coach and any other asshole, so what

[jjjhs08]

AHHH the more i watch the more i hate that yahoo writer...he said he FINGERED the coach who picked him and insecurely made him know that he made a mistake, as if he didnt know....THATS NOT AT ALL HOW HE DID IT, he was just joking around, he knows that everyone knows the coach made a mistake, hes not REALLY insecure, its a joke...

[jjjhs08]

the writer adrian wojnarowski is an idiot, he made it so dramatic when it wasnt...he said the part about leroy smith was SHOCKING but he simply said how it motivated him, he wasnt rude or insecure at all. Also, it makes for a funny story that jordan was actually cut for someone at one point, all sports writers do is stir up controversy that isnt there because they need something to write about, but this guy was out of line for trying to tarnish his legacy, and guess what? Im a knicks fan lol

[jjjhs08]

he didnt say he acted arrogant, he should act that way though he deserves it, he says he acted insecure

[new0033]

Watch all parts of his speech JACKASS!

[new0033]

No he was 100% correct. Fuck Jordan and all you sheep that suck his dick.

[smellzz21]

RESPECTED VERY MUCH HOW SCOTTIE PIPPEN WAS THE FIRsT NAME HE MENTIONED!!

[beivy19]

the guy who wrote negatively about mj's speech in yahoo sports was so wrong. he gave the impression that mj was arrogant in a way. this video shows nothing of that. it's a good thing i viewed this video.

[xleax]

I agree man. The whole article was stupid. Before I watched the speech I thought it was gonna be nasty but it was the opposite.

The speech was benign with a good sense of humor to it.

[maxmllions]

@beivy19 KB24 is the greatest

[DIRO1971]

@maxmllions....MJ23 is the greatest all Time !!!
