Wow!!! I was at this game. I was 11 at the time. It was my first live MJ experience. The other two was when he played fro the wizards. Thank you for posting.
4:36 I just love Scottie's reaction to the MJ breakaway. He throws his fist before Michael even took off.. and then after the dunk he's like 'Woooh!!'
@thewolfmanchu Yeah I know. Those three basically revived and saved the NBA in the 80's. It'll be hard for any generation to really compare to the 80's. But thanks for your insight.
Man the NBA was just way better in the 90's. It's like it was in it's prime and nowadays it just sucks just terrible reffing and so many other objections about it.
I think Bullet's coach had run out of ideas. You can clearly see at the beghinning of the game it wasn't Price guarding MJ. And sometimes in numerious occasions, coachs put smaller guard on MJ try to match up MJ with speed and quickness or stronger guy on MJ to match up MJ with strength. For Example, Chris Child was guarding MJ in 1997 Bulls vs NY "the con" game. Or John Starks. Anthony Mason on MJ, Bulls vs Hornet 1998 playoff.
the bullets/wizards were idiots for letting rasheed wallace go and giving juwon howard the max instead. truly pitiful. these guys would suck ass today if it werent for gilbert arenas and caron butler.
Rare stuff it truly is, the Bulls went a phenomonal 72 & 10 in that 95 / 96 season (that record might get beaten, but I doubt it).
You can see once Jordan gets in that mindset, there's no stopping him. The bulls were winning constantly, their confidence was sky high, they were unbeatable! knew it, played like it and that's why they went all the way.
young sheed, c-webb, juwan could have been dominant for years with all the versatility.. unfortunately c-webb and juwan enjoyed the DC nightlife a little bit too much lol
Best Mid Range jump shooter of all time...Period. This guy has the most complete game, and I do like this videos of him vs Current so called "Stars" like Rasheed and Steve Nash, Shaq, and KG. Because it shows how dominant he was against those players as well. And what is crazy is people this guy in this video is like 34 years old! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! The G.O.A.T without a doubt
Yeah man he is the G.O.A.T and dont be fooled by his age he was at his bes tregardless of what everyone says from 96 to 98. People dont realise that he chose to dunk less so he could dominate for longer than he played like he said when he retired at 35 with the bulls he could have played and led the league for another 4 seasons.
i like classic bsketball rather than today,today u cant see anymore exciting moments like LB,MJ...and the whole legend.there so unique from me.they are the role model as a player from now a days.todays,very2 bad players.i dont like.there all faggots..
There are a lot of misconceptions about MJ's ability to shoot 3's in his early days. He didnt overshoot 3's like KB does that's why his % was poor for his 1st years. He had games where he shot once and stop. If KB took only one 3 per game his % would be pathetic too believe me. U just gotta watch his games to realise that
yes, 84 to 93 he wasnt a jump shooter, he was more of a slasher, thats why his percentage was so high cause all his shots were dunks or around the rim. but when he was hitting his perimeter shot thats when he put up those big point games. 96 to 98 is when jordan developed the fadeaway and became more of a jump shooter, this was to save energy and replace some of his lost athleticsism, and this is why he shot a lower percentage in his latter years.
WHat? No no no. His shots werent all dunks or around the rim from 84 to 93. He always had a jumper and he actually used it often during that period. He had a fadeaway ever since his rookie year. The idea he was just a dunker in his younger days couldnt be farthest from the truth. Its true that he attacked the rim more during that time but its wrong to say he only dunked or shot near the basket.
yo, thank you for posting the truth. Where do the young kids get this idea that Michael took everything to the basket. Look at hoopsencyclopedia's videos. Mike was and has always been a jump shooter
That's correct, and for anyone wanting to see some proof of that take this video for example
youtube . com/watch?v=sIAobQw8qwc
(delete the spaces before and after the dot)
The first game on that video is from MJ's rookie season agaisnt the Knicks. U can see 2 fadeaways there. Its also one of my favourite games from Hoops, he was so athletic and raw there.
Word. MJ even early on had a complete offensive game. He just didn't dunk. He did everything, which is why he was unstoppable. Midrange Js, slashing drives, power dunks, fadeaways, post-ups, up and unders, long bombs, moving without the ball, etc. People need to refresh their memories once in a while.
that is partly true but the other reason his percentage wasn't as hot as it could have been is because he would take most of them when there was no time on the shot clock. He would be forced by the defence with time running down to catch the ball out there. And becasue of the time would have to shoot it, and would make some tough ones too
if kobe jumped from half court and and dunked it to finish with 102 points for the the champoinship in a game seven - and jordan picked his nose in the stands...jordans pick would outshine kobes moment in STYLE.
"This performance was sandwiched inside an 11-game span where MJ averaged 55.1% with a low of 50% and a high of 64.3% while scoring 27-48 points per game for a 36.2ppg average" Damn, that is insane.
I don't care what anyone says, this Bulls team was the best sports team of my lifetime. I understand the arguments about a weaker league, but they dominated so effortlessly. I watched most of their games and here's how they went: Bulls warm into the game, lead by 5-8 at halftime. Mid way through the third quarter, Bulls up by 27, MJ and Pippen icing on the bench.
You see thats the difference between Jordan and Kobe. When Jordan did that break away dunk at 4:00, the crowd in Washington stood up and applauded even though Jordan was with the opposing team. Now when Kobe gets the ball and does anything he gets boos. Jordan was beloved by everybody, even on the road. Check out the videos when the bulls are on the road and see what i am talking about. Just something to think about.........Kobe Lovers
they were around 50% by the time that was happening moron, and the fact they sux has nuttin to do wit it, it was the trade rumors, they were hopin to get a great player for a small price
gotta love sheed as charles barkely said if sheed had the mind of a michael jordan or larry bird and he wanted 2 kill u every time he got the ball he could be the best player n bastketball 2day
Prime Michael Jordan would tear up today's league with the new soft rules..he'd undoubtedly be the best player today... especially with no hand checking
not to mention he was mentally stronger than any player today... Don't get me wrong KB's my favorite player today but some of you guys severely overrate him... Has KB had a season averaging 32 ppg, 8rpg, 8apg, 1 bpg, 3 spg, while shooting 54% from the field? Has he had a season even remotely close? Has he won an MVP or a DPOY award, let alone in the same season?
haha think whatever you think but please dont post bullshit like this. 1 on 1 in their prime and kobe wins? i guess you can probably beat mike too by the way you sound like. and how does the defense and athletes are on a different level? but you know you might be half right, it is on a lower level then before.
if you see his rookie season games, mj is just so unbelievably calm and cool. always knows what he is doing. and ++ scoring ability anywhere within the 3pt line. and the pure athleticism, big palm, speed, and court vision, and of course the confidence. it is just more than any of the today superstars.
It's amazing how perfectly cleanly he reaches in all the way across Price's body to poke the ball away. You can see it really well at 4:32. Sick timing. Didn't touch Price's arm or body despite going at full speed.
Highest PPG average ever? Jordan. Highest PPG Playoffs average ever? Jordan. There are no facts to back your BS up. Statistically Jordan beats Kobe in almost every category! Especially scoring you twit.
Thanks so much for keeping doing such a great job. Today's NBA games are just like my name - game sucks. Your postings for Jordan's games are only reason for people like me to continue having feeling for b-ball.
Notice how he controls the ball on the fast break leading to the dunk. He palms it as if it was a volley ball. that dunk became a fixture of his in 1996. he would use it on the open court. love how pip gets all excited about mike's stuff
The difference wtih MJ is that he is a complete offensive player. He can drive, shoot the jumper, post up, moves without the ball,etc.. He does all those things well. And when I say well, I mean really well. You can't say that about Lebron, Kobe or any other heir Jordan. And I haven't even talked about the defense yet.
That is why Kobe masturbates watching MJ,his game is freaking beautiful! Todays NBA fans have their MJ in Kobe but he is a psycho that is fatally attracted by MJ and would rather die than admit it
i love ball...basketball is the bewst thing on the planet....but the worst part is i wassn't old enough to understand it or watch it when MJ was playing!!!:(:( i cry myself to sleep cause of it...(Well i still have youtube :) )
Duuuude, I feel for ya, you missed out BIG time. It was a Main Event feel everytime the Bulls played. And they weren't always perfect, but had such a flow to the game.
How many players would instinctively run the other way for the dunk after poking the ball out (before it was recovered by Kerr)? He saw that way before it happened.
Watching Jordan and Pippen go back n forth scoring against hapless defenders - it almost doesn't seem fair! lol And Rodman menacing on the inside...Damn, I miss those guys.
It just didn't happen because of the interior collapse whenever MJ did drive. I should have put in the attacks MJ did with Muresan's head in mind however.
Yeah man, saw that clip once on CNN-World Sport....Never seen it since then. Wonder why it has never becoma famous. Ok, there's this space-poster from that dunk but it'S never been replayed...
Thanks so much hoops for this wonderful treat. I also check everyday for one of those MJ gems. Wouldn't you happen to have that game against Miami in 1996 where MJ went for a behind the back dunk. I remember being amazed at the time he could still get up that high at age 33 ?
The way in which Jordan scored was so effortless it was a pure joy to watch! I don't know about the rest of you but I am sick of hearing Kobe mentioned in the same breath as Michael! Kobe can score....that's it! He doesn't command his team, he doesn't inspire his team, he doesn't even lead his team, Kobe is in it for the Stats. Jordan was in it for the love of the game and the ultimate goal...the Championship! As a result...all the records came along the way aswell.
You're 100% correct. I know without a shadow of a doubt that MJ could have thrown down 100 ponints in a game if he really wanted to. But he didn't need to. He'd rather be a team player. Just look how great this Bulls team was. Kobe can only dream.
And that's BS about Kobe going for stats. Like Kobe doesn't want to win just as much as everyone else in the league. If he was going for stats he'd be averaging 35ppg right now. People like you are ridiculous. Right now and for the past 3 seasons, Kobe has been the only bright spot on his team. He has not had a supporting cast anywhere near as good as Jordan's Bulls. Remember Jordan in the 80's?
The reason Kobe isn't averaging 35ppg is because he can't. Funny I remember MJ averaging 32ppg and 8apg one year during the 80s. Kobe or Lebron do that? No!
I'm just saying. Kobe won't be as good as MJ but people for some reason seem to think that he never passes or involves his teamates. He and Jordan's assist averages have been pretty much the same over their careers. They are shooting guards. That's what they do. Shoot.
Jordan has nearly an assist per game more than Kobe. That's not the same. Not to mention block, steals, rebounds, and points. How about shooting % and turnovers. But I'm sure Kobe is better because he scored 81 points against a really bad team once.
MJ has ~1 more assist (if you count the # of assists over a career, its staggering) while leading the league in scoring the whole time, while KB spent a good portion deferring to Shaq and lobbing him alley-oops but still comes up short.
thanks a lot hoops great upload....man I´m checking out every day on youtube for your next video....NO CUESTION IN MY MIND: MICHAEL IS THE BEST EVER. I doubt if we will get to see something close....¿KB? a good player, but, please, no joke with this...he hasn´t even come close to the GOAT. greetings from spain (A gasol´s fan).
Love the Jordan clips during the second comeback, I don't any athlete has ever done what he did. He rose to the top in the most dominant fashion. Left and then came back to re-establish his dominance. Even during his third comeback he was his still unconquerable self.
Kobe Bryant takes breaks from playing D all the time. Commentators and sports writers even make fun of him for it. And look at what he did during the playoffs when he barely scored at all and the Lakers let go of a 3-1 lead to the Suns and eventually lost.
if you are watching this video, take the 2 seconds to rate it. Throw this guy a 5 * for spending his spare time to put this together for us. Even if you didn't like the game, show a nice gesture and start giving youtube uploaders 5*'s for effort. Everyone, pitch in! Ive had my viewers rate my videos so high that they were in the youtube top 20 for "all" and #1 for sports, there is no excuse for this to NOT be #1....click away guys!
At the 1:59 mark you can see Jordan do the patented leg kick and hold on the follow through of his shot. Know who the ONLY other player in history to ever do that is? You guessed it -- rhymes with "show me." That's why it makes me laugh when people act like that dude didn't BLATANTLY rip off MJ's moves/mannerisms.
Yeah the difference is this, that certain player will do the same pose AFTER A MISS. One is a wanna-be, the other was the original. That's as simple as you can break that down. To be "like Mike" then you gotta think like Mike, have the same college coach as Mike, have the same heros as Mike (Connie Hawkins, Oscar Robertson, Dr J) these are guys who MJ 'copied'. Not just 1.
Oh yeah, and as far as emulating his heros, Jordan never tried to talk like any of them, or change his number like them, or hang his tounge out like him, or all of the other mannerisms that really turned me off to the guy as an individual. Im tellin you jordanlover23, it's a matter of time before people realize that this guy was just one of the many guys who try to be like Mike, and sometimes they look like Mike, but they can't be Mike 24/7, that's the separation, consistency.
Have you ever seen T-Mac change his number? Hang out his tounge? Do the tounge waggling in interviews? Try to use the same cadance as Jordan? I think Kobe is a great player and I have spent time making quite a few mixes of him and I have his best plays from Nov/Dec on my channel. But he is a Jordan wanna-be, you cannot say that T-Mac does all this:
type youtube . com and paste this: /watch?v=JxHZ7ZWxl78
Is that a joke? lol He was sandwiched on the shot and his leg got hit and PUSHED to the side. It's not at all the same thing as Jordan does in this video (and many other games) or Kobe's blatant imitation of it. Try again.
Wow!!! I was at this game. I was 11 at the time. It was my first live MJ experience. The other two was when he played fro the wizards. Thank you for posting.

Prime Michael Jordan would tear up today's league with the new soft rules..he'd undoubtedly be the best player today... especially with no hand checking
BullsRepeat3Peat 4 years ago 5
not to mention he was mentally stronger than any player today... Don't get me wrong KB's my favorite player today but some of you guys severely overrate him... Has KB had a season averaging 32 ppg, 8rpg, 8apg, 1 bpg, 3 spg, while shooting 54% from the field? Has he had a season even remotely close? Has he won an MVP or a DPOY award, let alone in the same season?
BullsRepeat3Peat 4 years ago 4
haha think whatever you think but please dont post bullshit like this. 1 on 1 in their prime and kobe wins? i guess you can probably beat mike too by the way you sound like. and how does the defense and athletes are on a different level? but you know you might be half right, it is on a lower level then before.

if you really think about what you just said. you will find what you said full of bullshit.
so sad people nowadays still dont realize how far away all these new stars are compared to mj.
popeyeisgood 4 years ago 5
if you see his rookie season games, mj is just so unbelievably calm and cool. always knows what he is doing. and ++ scoring ability anywhere within the 3pt line. and the pure athleticism, big palm, speed, and court vision, and of course the confidence. it is just more than any of the today superstars.
popeyeisgood 4 years ago
It's amazing how perfectly cleanly he reaches in all the way across Price's body to poke the ball away. You can see it really well at 4:32. Sick timing. Didn't touch Price's arm or body despite going at full speed.

Highest PPG average ever? Jordan. Highest PPG Playoffs average ever? Jordan. There are no facts to back your BS up. Statistically Jordan beats Kobe in almost every category! Especially scoring you twit.

Thanks so much for keeping doing such a great job. Today's NBA games are just like my name - game sucks. Your postings for Jordan's games are only reason for people like me to continue having feeling for b-ball.
gamesucks123 4 years ago 3
Notice how he controls the ball on the fast break leading to the dunk. He palms it as if it was a volley ball. that dunk became a fixture of his in 1996. he would use it on the open court. love how pip gets all excited about mike's stuff
DALMX006 4 years ago
Notice the dunk on 4:37 the way MJ extends his arms out after dunkin. KB does it everytime he makes a two handed dunk. He studied MJ to exaustion lol
nunadas 4 years ago
The difference wtih MJ is that he is a complete offensive player. He can drive, shoot the jumper, post up, moves without the ball,etc.. He does all those things well. And when I say well, I mean really well. You can't say that about Lebron, Kobe or any other heir Jordan. And I haven't even talked about the defense yet.

How many players would instinctively run the other way for the dunk after poking the ball out (before it was recovered by Kerr)? He saw that way before it happened.

The way in which Jordan scored was so effortless it was a pure joy to watch! I don't know about the rest of you but I am sick of hearing Kobe mentioned in the same breath as Michael! Kobe can score....that's it! He doesn't command his team, he doesn't inspire his team, he doesn't even lead his team, Kobe is in it for the Stats. Jordan was in it for the love of the game and the ultimate goal...the Championship! As a result...all the records came along the way aswell.
Wrxrtd 4 years ago 3
You're 100% correct. I know without a shadow of a doubt that MJ could have thrown down 100 ponints in a game if he really wanted to. But he didn't need to. He'd rather be a team player. Just look how great this Bulls team was. Kobe can only dream.
tigerwah 4 years ago
Team player? Dude had 2 assists! According to LeBron fans Jordan is a huge ballhog.
JKFrazier 4 years ago
And that's BS about Kobe going for stats. Like Kobe doesn't want to win just as much as everyone else in the league. If he was going for stats he'd be averaging 35ppg right now. People like you are ridiculous. Right now and for the past 3 seasons, Kobe has been the only bright spot on his team. He has not had a supporting cast anywhere near as good as Jordan's Bulls. Remember Jordan in the 80's?
JKFrazier 4 years ago
The reason Kobe isn't averaging 35ppg is because he can't. Funny I remember MJ averaging 32ppg and 8apg one year during the 80s. Kobe or Lebron do that? No!
tigerwah 4 years ago
According to Lebron fans? Since when did they become a credible source?
bobo0383 4 years ago
Never.;)
I'm just saying. Kobe won't be as good as MJ but people for some reason seem to think that he never passes or involves his teamates. He and Jordan's assist averages have been pretty much the same over their careers. They are shooting guards. That's what they do. Shoot.
JKFrazier 4 years ago
Jordan has nearly an assist per game more than Kobe. That's not the same. Not to mention block, steals, rebounds, and points. How about shooting % and turnovers. But I'm sure Kobe is better because he scored 81 points against a really bad team once.
tigerwah 4 years ago
MJ has ~1 more assist (if you count the # of assists over a career, its staggering) while leading the league in scoring the whole time, while KB spent a good portion deferring to Shaq and lobbing him alley-oops but still comes up short.

Love the Jordan clips during the second comeback, I don't any athlete has ever done what he did. He rose to the top in the most dominant fashion. Left and then came back to re-establish his dominance. Even during his third comeback he was his still unconquerable self.

Kobe Bryant takes breaks from playing D all the time. Commentators and sports writers even make fun of him for it. And look at what he did during the playoffs when he barely scored at all and the Lakers let go of a 3-1 lead to the Suns and eventually lost.

if you are watching this video, take the 2 seconds to rate it. Throw this guy a 5 * for spending his spare time to put this together for us. Even if you didn't like the game, show a nice gesture and start giving youtube uploaders 5*'s for effort. Everyone, pitch in! Ive had my viewers rate my videos so high that they were in the youtube top 20 for "all" and #1 for sports, there is no excuse for this to NOT be #1....click away guys!
therealbruceblitz 4 years ago 5
At the 1:59 mark you can see Jordan do the patented leg kick and hold on the follow through of his shot. Know who the ONLY other player in history to ever do that is? You guessed it -- rhymes with "show me." That's why it makes me laugh when people act like that dude didn't BLATANTLY rip off MJ's moves/mannerisms.
jordanlover23 4 years ago 2
Yeah the difference is this, that certain player will do the same pose AFTER A MISS. One is a wanna-be, the other was the original. That's as simple as you can break that down. To be "like Mike" then you gotta think like Mike, have the same college coach as Mike, have the same heros as Mike (Connie Hawkins, Oscar Robertson, Dr J) these are guys who MJ 'copied'. Not just 1.
therealbruceblitz 4 years ago
Oh yeah, and as far as emulating his heros, Jordan never tried to talk like any of them, or change his number like them, or hang his tounge out like him, or all of the other mannerisms that really turned me off to the guy as an individual. Im tellin you jordanlover23, it's a matter of time before people realize that this guy was just one of the many guys who try to be like Mike, and sometimes they look like Mike, but they can't be Mike 24/7, that's the separation, consistency.
therealbruceblitz 4 years ago
lol not a big deal man. I've seen T-mac do the same thing. Its just an expression, not a blatant copy.
bluerap04 4 years ago
Have you ever seen T-Mac change his number? Hang out his tounge? Do the tounge waggling in interviews? Try to use the same cadance as Jordan? I think Kobe is a great player and I have spent time making quite a few mixes of him and I have his best plays from Nov/Dec on my channel. But he is a Jordan wanna-be, you cannot say that T-Mac does all this:

I can't agree more. I cannot stand when Kobe talks. The man is trying too hard to be like Mike.

Is that a joke? lol He was sandwiched on the shot and his leg got hit and PUSHED to the side. It's not at all the same thing as Jordan does in this video (and many other games) or Kobe's blatant imitation of it. Try again.
