Michael Jordan Steal From Penny + Ball Fake/Layup ['96 PO]

[saiyanprince101]

Penny and Shaq disliked this video.

[shelbyblue96]

was he wearing space jams ???

[MIchael23Jordan84]

What was Penny Hardaway doing on that play? he should have been covering Jordan.

[PopExpo]

man i remember seeing this live as a kid on tv

[tomxchapters]

the announcers blamed penny hardaway for throwing that away, but really it was shaq's fault for throwing it to him in a position where jordan could ambush him so easily.

[jpr999999]

the greatest\

[J1mmyAva1on]

Wow, was the even legal =P

[mrgiantrobot]

I'm lovin' the MJ one-handed ball fake. Absolutely ridonkulous and make me laugh every time

[spitnificent]

Let me reassure you. Kobe is no where near as good as MJ. Kobe's legacy is established no doubt, but he can't touch MJ.

[gd6464]

WTF???????????? HE FOOLED ME TOO

[yonip28115]

HIs the goat but Kobe will be the goat too. Kobe has one of the best turn around fade away that its just unreal even behind the arc . They both have good fake it just that jordan always palm the ball and kobe likes to use 2 or 3 pump fakes when he shoots

[getyoasshome]

@yonip28115 kobe doesnt shoot fade aways beyond the arc LOL!!! where the hell did you get that from? the difference between mike and kobe is SPEED!! mike is faster he STRIKES! to the basket he doesnt need to cross you over he goes right by you. there is only 1 g.o.a.t. and his name is michael jordan.

[megatroll]

@yonip28115

Kobe is the most overrated player ever.

NBA record 30 misses in a game. NBA record 100 misses in a series. The only (!!!) finals MVP in NBA history to not shoot 50%. Kobe never made 51 points in the playoffs in 198 attempts. MJ had less attempts and made over 51 points 10 times!!! There are 15 games in NBA history where someone has made over 50 points and NOT shoot 50%. Kobe is responsible for 6 of them!!! And he shot 7-24 and was handed the finals MVP.

Get real.

Kobe = sidekick

[royman606]

id say Kobe is up there in the top 5 shooting guards.

But mike is number one, and if all the NBA players themselves say so, you kobe fans watching from youtube and tv better believe so... i mean those guys actually know the game to a mastery level..

[Xcoming2]

i'm still waiting for a layup

[someguynamedaaron]

thats using your mind right there. #45 got faked out twice. he completely fooled the shit out of him

[jeebuz012]

@dalampiras You're pretty easy to sway then i assume, only thing mj did in this video that kobe can't is palm the ball in mid-air.

[dalampiras]

@jeebuz012 Lol no man but if you think about it thats not totaly incorect that one of many advantages of him over Kobe.Ihave never seen any other player do that like MJ,but yes i have watced many MJ footage to come to this conclusion

[lmo6964]

he pivited it he didnt move it

[Langakinka]

Yeah, i think i saw him travel. When he ball fake it, he accidentally "jump" a little bit, try to watch again... Anyway, Mj is Mj. What an athlete.

[1phatboy83]

he traveled love mj but he walked 0:19

[getyoasshome]

@1phatboy83 there was no travel its called a pivot....

[TheLucifer69]

He Does It All Time. My Favourite Trick!

[dpsd]

According to google, MJ's hands is 12.5 inch.. that's big enought for a cradle dunk, circus, shots and 1 hand ball fake

[chikenfriedricey]

Dang his hands are like dinner plates. Amazing ball control

[FlipJackson1591]

Kobe is a great player he's one of my favorites, but Jordan is greatness at it's best like in games you see kobe get locked up and frustrated but Jordan was always ahead of everybody else like it's insane the basketball talent and IQ he had without a doubt the greatest ever

[alleniversonsixers3]

wow i am gonna be doing this in nba 2k11 jordan modes

[ktagga]

Look at the spacejams on that mans feet

[daveghel23]

basic mj tricks..haha

[lugawconyelo]

@daveghel23 dont worry kobe is practicing that move..hahah..

[daveghel23]

@lugawconyelo i don't think so.. michael has bigger hands than kobe.. jordan is so good with his ball fake and this is one of his effective offensive arsenal..

[lugawconyelo]

@daveghel23 i know haha im just joking to the kobe fans outhere..im mj fan.

[ChilloutSessionZ]

look at fat ass dennis scoott, looks like a slug

[triklops]

This is one of the reasons he stands on top....he just seemed to be bigger than the game itself at times....just watch his 55 points in the 93 finals..effortlessly

[AsianMMA]

GOD DAMN! haha Faked out like no tomorrow.

[guyatrowe23]

Just the fact that Kobe's name is even mentioned in a Jordan video shows how great, that's right, GREAT, Kobe is. Better than Jordan? Not yet, probably won't be. But he's a close second and third is a few rungs down the ladder.

Lakers!!! Back-to-Back!!!

PS

MJ is disgusting. He shouldn't have been allowed to play in the NBA because he was just too sick. It's like a varsity player playing on a Junior High team. It wasn't fair!!

[Ant4523]

@guyatrowe23

Great post man I totally agree

[theoneandonlytariq]

WTF, I would pick Pippen over Kobe any day. Comparing Kobe to MJ is a sin, MJ was and is to this day the greatest to touch a bball son.

[kdentonjm]

U r an idiot to even think Kobe is better than MJ in the first place.

[jrsandres24]

Kobe can't do this coz he doesnt have big hands like MJ.. Phil Jackson said that that's the only difference they had.

[VinmanMJ23]

That was sick.

[TigerHu22]

he played them

[netcap001]

wow i love his one hand ball fake..wish i could do that

[glasspawn989]

Jordan has a Big hands that is why he can just ball fake like that but anyway that's just Amazing

[retrotw]

this is something jordan is born with..kobe culdnt have done this...first..i dont think kobe has the awareness that jordan has to pull off that steal...2ndly....kobe's hands are too small compared to jordan...so he wuldnt have gone for that fake like MJ....wuldnt have been as efficient as MJ...i kno kobe does all the hard work and shit...but there are things u r just fuckin' born with...and quite frankly..i take MJ over KB24 anyday....

[nocents81]

@retrotw I agree with everything you said except the steal part Kobe would get the steal and just pull up for the jumpshot and hit it but as a big kobe fan I was a bigger Jordan fan I would take jordan first but I would also pick Kobe and put him at the 3 spot. My five would be Hakeem, Barkley, Kobe, Jordan, Magic I could swap Bird for Kobe if needed and have Shaq, duncan, Bird, Pippen, Stockton, reggie Miller and pete maravich on my full team. great dream team IMO

[adetomiwa3]

amazing play..remeber watching it LIVE!! jordan killed da magic 4 games to 0....

[pheeeel17]

look at jack haley stand up, looks like he's singing opera!

[ARobb5]

I didn't realize that a free-throw line jumper is a layup.

[BassoNero]

That was MJ`s revenge for Penny Hardaway`s steal in playoffs a year before... just amazing.

[KFlavin24]

That wasn't Penny, that was Nick Anderson.

[m14closerangeSniper]

michael jackson u rock!

[hmwillow]

this is not a layup idiot

[Civsuccess2]

That move can only be accomplished by MJ because MJ has insanely big hand. You cannot ball fake like that with 2 hands. That's why Kobe cannot do it.

[sirclahan]

my oh my!!!!!greatness....

[Rippedtoshredds23]

Listen to Marv Albert's speech become stuttered/paused...he couldn't even believe that someone would just stop someone like that off of a steal..most people would just take it right to the rack...this shows jordan's confidence in his outside game which was one of his weaknesses as a younger player. Obviously, this shows that is no one like Jordan. Simply one of his best plays of all time.

[dalampiras]

I am a huge Kobe fan sometimes i think that Kobe is better than Mike.All it takes to change my mind is a 25 second video of MJ unreal.

[rob23molina]

@dalampiras kobe is good but MJ is great.

[dalampiras]

@rob23molina That's what i said

[rob23molina]

@dalampiras No you didn't.

[dalampiras]

@rob23molina You're trippin

[rob23molina]

@dalampiras And your clueless.

[dalampiras]

@rob23molina ok won if you wonted to win something

[rob23molina]

@dalampiras I proved a point.

[bmchoszen15]

@dalampiras I was born in 1988 but didnt see much of mj besides youtube videos and classic games, so yes i am a kobe fan but im not ignorant to say lebron sucks wade sucks and its all about kobe. Even though i still think hes better.

Sometimes i think Kobe is better then Jordan as well and I come watch a video like this as you said and I remember whos the KING

MJ GOAT respect hes a lunatic LOL

[bmchoszen15]

By the way im 21 goin on 22 soon and everytime i wanna give up on bball as i play college, i can watch kobe videos and im like yeah cool, i watch jordan and i get goosebumps and the feeling to go practice this guy is a gift

[Shermstyle23]

@dalampiras Dont ever forget it tho!

[lebron2561]

@dalampiras

and check the stats, you'll see jordan is light years ahead of kobe.

[evxdaddy]

@dalampiras Respect. Honesty is important. Kobe is pretty damn great though.

[VinmanMJ23]

@dalampiras That short video clip shows three reasons MJ is better than Kobe. 1. He's a better defender and has so many more steals than Kobe that Kobe will have to play till he's 50 to catch him. 2. The size of MJ's hands. 3. MJ made the shot. Statistically speaking, Kobe would have about a 45% chance of making that shot.

[Salva46]

It's really tough to tell this, but I think that  it's my favourite MJ's play of all time. Absolutely unreal.

[the5thM]

Sorry, but I don't see what's so live about this play.

[blaq7427]

I guess you r blind

[jfrd28]

It's not common to see someone do a ball-fake a jumpshot with one hand twice with the opponents expects you to continue a play.

Gimme a non-Jordan video in YouTube that did the same thing. :) Would you find one?

[tygeezy]

His hands are absolutely massive, one of the biggest physical advantages he had.

[jeanrollan]

Yeah, it really helped his game.

[CYW913]

I watched this full game...That's make my mouth turned into "O".

[miguelmascorro]

travel, but still sick

[marcelobesch]

I didn't see any travel.

[miguelmascorro]

i stand corrected =]

[lugawconyelo]

hahaha that play the majoc look's like a puppet

[dimedropper1992]

i remember seeing this when i was in gr.5 i thought it was ok. but when i see it now its hard to imagine anyone doing that!!!!

Jordan=GOAT

[MaNiGauLt23]

she said no but i continued to pump her

[MaNiGauLt23]

Damn, wish I had hands that big

[KB42PAH]

seriously

[MaNiGauLt23]

Lawl, someone else must have wrote that. Wasn't me.

[jordanlover23]

One of the sickest plays you'll ever see.
