Michael Jordan half court shots and jump shots

(I fixed the quality of the video)

This is a small compilation of MJ, making shots from mid-court...

The most amazing thing, is that apart from the first one, which happens in practice, all the other shots are jump shots, and there's also one where he double pumps before releasing the ball...

Jordan demonstrates his incomparable athletic abilities on these shots...

Once again, enjoy the best ever...His airness from center court!!! Sick!!!

The first shot is in 1995, in Madison Square Garden (practice)...Just before the infamous 55 point game against the New York Knicks, in his unforgetable come back...

The second one is in 1993, in Utah, against the Jazz, facing Karl Malone and John Stockton...

The third one is in 1993, in Chicago against the Atlanta Hawks...Check out Dominique Wilkins as he reacts to Jordan's half court shot...

The fourth one is in 1986, in Chicago against the Boston Celtics, in a shootout game between Mike and legendary Larry Bird...

The fifth one is in 1997, in Seattle, against the Supersonics, in the infamous George Karl game...

Special thanks to the guys that keep uploading videos showing Jordan's artistry, in youtube...

Have fun...

wheres the jump shots i only see half court shots

[Skatastamoutrasas]

@mownai2 The first shot, is a half court shot. All the others, are half court jump shots! You're right, I should make that more specific!

"Who's Michael Jordan?"

"Pshh only the best..."

[Jordan2345Airwalk]

I think Phil Jackson was the luckiest coach in this world.... He coached the best player NBA in the world, MJ23!!

Why is MJ such a BA?!?!?!

Thumbs up if you think Jordan should be a coach.

@bolder2009Well I admit that Jordan was more clutch than anyone including Bird, Jordan didn't rely on 3's the way someone like Bird did. There was a Finals game where Jordan made seven 3-pointers against Drexler to kind of prove he could shoot the 3 if he wanted to. Jordan did everything well that is true, but Jordan's will and desire to win I think in a way improved his outside shooting. Jordan was greater, but technically, Bird was better shooter, Jordan was more of a great athlete

@1RonBurgundy1 However in the PLAY-OFFS MJ was a better 3-Point shooter than Larry Bird. If you compare their 3-point shooting Play-Off careers, MJ averaged 33.2% while Larry Bird averaged 32.1%. The numbers don't lie. MJ doesn't get enough credit for his 3-Point shooting. He was intelligent enough to go for high percentage shots, but could shoot 3's when he wanted to, and thought it was the right shot to take. As Jerry West said, MJ is the only player he's seen who had no weaknesses.

what could he NOT do!

[chitownsuperfan]

i remember specifically watching the seattle one live. It was game 3 of the 1996 finals

[1RonBurgundy1]

These are amazing shots but the bank shots, not sure if he called those. Sorry but Jordan is not one of the best outside shooters in NBA history, Bird for example, while not a better player, was simply a more skilled outside shooter. Michael as you can see, got way more air on his jumpers and just willed the ball in.

@Jordan2345Airwalk He actually coached the 2 greatest players ever
