Michael Jordan 1989: 52pts vs. Boston Celtics (Full Re-edit)

I originally edited this game years ago but due to Youtube's file size limit back then, only parts of it were put up. This is the full version of the game with cleaner quality as well. Bizarrely, as good as MJ was playing, he was "off" on his circus shots in this game. Typically, 3 or 4 more of those went in on a daily basis in these ahletic prime years but not this night. A game with max offense with max defense as only MJ can.

why the FUCK do u guys talk about kobe when he is not even in the video?

[BALLlSLlFE]

the only comparison I can make between Jordan and Kobe or Lebron is that Jordan dominated the NBA like they dominated in high school.

Bulls announcers are real homers.

Your statements are 100% accurate. Not only that you can just see how great his footwork is along with the speed. I mean he just must have given people like D. Johnson fits. YOu can see it in his face as well. Think of playing Jordan one on one. Even Scottie got destroyed by Michael one on one. I've talked to scottie about it before and he said you just dont understand the abililty of the man.

MJ's speed makes the comparisons with Kobe seem ridiculous. Jordan was so much faster that some of his moves looked full-speed in his SLOW MOTION replays. Kobe looks like a less-skilled, less athletic Jordan in slow-motion. Even Wizards Jordan was quicker. ;)

The closest combination of speed and strength to 88-93 Mike that we have today is Lebron, and even he's not close.

3:10 MJ steals the ball from midair with one hand, then passes it effortlessly and accurately downcourt with the one hand. Shows the ridiculous amount of control his hands have...it of course helps that they're so big

[quarzahk]

the 2:10 moves were amazing. so much control over the defender with his fakes and dribble moves.

[tschuggggi]

2:40 is just so ridiculous that i cant take it

pulling 5 people in the key..then take a step out fade away and score wide open...

O.W.N.A.G.E.

This game is the 1988-89 Season but it actually takes place on November 9th, 1988. Great game by Jordan

If you look closely you can see Lebron travel.

[Metropalis2]

If you look closely, you can see Bird travele.. oh wait, I did something wrong right?
