  • hows that a circus shot he obviously planned it. you dickface

  • It's a circus shot because it wasn't your typical shot. It was out of the ordinary. It doesn't matter if he planned it.

  • Are you stupid? This shot isnt about the left hand, this shot shows just how fast Jordan's reaction time was. He was going for a dunk, then he THOUGHT ( or at least saw) one of the Lakers player wanted to try to block his dunk. So in split seconds, Jordan decided to switch it off to his left hand and lay it up. VC and Kobe? My ass...

  • Are you serious? Do you even play basketball...

    This shot is so damn difficult.. you need core strength to get that hangtime... And to have the accuracy to hit it off the glass with your left hand?

    I play ball almost every day this shit is damn near impossible.

  • @madgudlukin1 yes Jordan had a reason. Jordan saw Perkins in the corner of his eye and thought he was gonna try and block him so he switch hands to avoid the block.

  • @paydog23 so the ordinary is u shoot basketballs all the time wtf thats like a normal layup which he changed for absolutely no reason so thats not even a great shot cuz no one was gaurdin him

  • Why do they always call shots like these "circus shots?" I have never once seen a basketball in a circus.

  • FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!!!!

  • @srwgundam VC would've just dunked it even if the whole other team tried to block it.

  • @JohnBrody23 then MICHAEL JORDAN planned it PERFECTLY!!!!!

  • in sparkling high definition....

  • You can never compare MJ to VC

    Mj is the most accomplished player behind Jabbar and MJ's dunks are graceful - he twists and his legs split or kick (or both) making many of his dunks look incredible.

    For example, free throw dunkers are just happy to jump that far - but MJ actually drops his elbow keeping th ball between his eyes and the rim and splits his legs sideways with a thrust before the flush. VC could never be so graceful.

  • @JohnBrody23 anger management issues? O_O calm down its just a video.

    i'm not trying to insult you or anything dude. i was just explaining that it could be called a "circus" layup.

  • @cbnunya So why the fuck did you reply in the first place if it doesn't really matter? Dumbass
