Facts the Michael Jordan of simply means the best in your field. This man is the Greatest of All-time an it's not relatively close.
No play-in tournament, no in-season tournament needed. Great basketball era back then!
40 years*
Stop the cap😂 today league is built around LBJ and Steph
yep
"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." ― Michael Jordan
That’s on my office wall
"the master has failed more times than the novice has even tried"
I BEAT MIACHEL JORDAN! I GOT MORE MONEY THAN MIACHEL JORDAN, AND I REMOVED THE FIRST CONFEDERATE STATUE 🗽 AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL, THAT'S THE SAME COLLEGE HE WENT TO! AND IM KING 👑 OF B.L.M! AND I OWN ALL PLANETS AND TIME AND UNIVERSES BY DEED! AND I CAN THROW A FOOTBALL AND RUN IT DOWN AND CATCH IT WITH ONE HAND! ✋ AND IM A REAL SUPER HERO! AND I LEGALIZED WEES MARIJUANA! THAT'S WHY I BECAME OWNER OF TIME AND PLANETS WHERE DRAKE PUNK COUSINS FROM HAHAHA RICHARD GRAHAM ILLEGAL ARREST ME IN 2017 4 YEARS LATER I BECAME OWNER OF TIME RICHEST HUMAN BEING IN HISTORY WORTH $999 GOOGOLPLEX DOLLARS AND COUNTING!!!! THEM DARK SKIN DUDES CAN'T HELP HIM EITHER, I BEAT EVERYBODY IM THE KING OF BLM TOO AND REMOVED 1ST CONFEDERATE STATUE DOWN SOUTH!
“Before you succeed, you must first learn to fail.”
Can you imagine, even *imagine,* LeBron James saying *anything* like this?
The NBA needs to release every season that MJ played. I’d watch every game.
Man, if only
Particularly his 80s seasons, I hear like 70% of those games are buried. We don't get nearly enough of him in the 88-89 season and that was arguably him at his peak or very close to it
@@GoGetYourShinebox Right. They should release it season by season. But I definitely couldn’t wait to get to 88-89!!
Beautifull to watch
@@GoGetYourShinebox I think its more like 30%, there is a site that sells a lot of games
Almost everyone wanted to be like mike back then! He had crazy athleticism yet was so fundamentally sound! Happy Birthday MJ!
Just imagine if MJ played in todays easier league he is like Ja, derozan, and kawhi
@@dadd_ysmurf3172 He is better! Much better!
Basketball players should still want to be like Mike
even lebum wants to be like mike ahahah.. now he denies it. what a loser
@@dadd_ysmurf3172 combined and better
I’m sorry, watching MJ, in 2024 and his skill set will never get old!!!
This is the beauty of this game, simply no one will ever play this kind of basketball. Shots from all positions, jumps, penetrations, dunks, speed, finding a solution under the foul... and the ball seems to be a part of his hand. Thank you MJ for all the beautiful basketball moments and enjoyment. The best of all time.🏀🏆
Right la choke has never made a buzzard shot to win. He has choked more times on those shots. His foul shots suck. Take his dunk and he's not even mediocre
fr he holds the basketball like a baseball
Additionally, he has magnetic charisma and the ability to win important matches. Perfection in every element of this game.
be quiet
@@stephcurryfan483adding on he has no dribble package
Style, elegance, killer mindset, offensive AND defensive skillset. He got everything. The greatest of all time.

@@justlovenohate4662 I never said I agreed with LeBron 🤔
@@rahardyan He ain't got none of dat bruh LOL Basic moves,no creativity whatsoever.Real Tok
@@sonnyallagonez5776 let me quote this guy who had to say sumthin. "I'm the best basketball player that ever played the game" said LeBron James
All his moves are so clean. No travels, euro steps, gathering, stutter step backs. Just electrifying athleticism mixed with old school fundamentals and determination.
that and his hands are massive, he could grip and hold the ball a lot better than most men can mid air
@@FGame2star Yes, that is a great point. Also allowed him to protect the ball in traffic.
@@danieljd6776 yep you can see for him to windmill his arms midair with the ball in motion requires for him to have a huge grip on that ball, not too many men can do that...Lebron or even Kobe couldn't
obviously, no travels its highlights they are not gonna show a travel
Perfectly explained
The goosebumps is unreal this dude is still the epitome of greatness when it comes to basketball.
Bro it’s the goosebumps for me bro I feel you
Michael Jordan was just a different breed man! He was magnificent. Such a great player! The greatest!
You know he's the GOAT when decades after, you still get goosebumps watching his amazing plays.
Exactly
I mean... Look at #60 to kick things off 😭😭😭
AGREE 💯
Goosebumps 🤣 MJ stans are crazy
@@kenlen8029 FAN OF THE GAME HE IS THE GOAT ....HE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLAYERS ALSO LEBRON SO WHEN LEBRON RETIRE HE WILL BE MY #2
Mike just had it all. The mentality and competitiveness, the talent and skills and the art and form.
And?
Dicked out for no reason
Poetry emotion
GOAT
Dosent have a weakness
Speechless.The God of Basketball.Nothing is impossible with him.Really.
I have watched practically everyone of these plays and after all these years I still get goosebumps. I only wish we had high definition in those days to enjoy the full glory. We at least have this today to reminisce. MJ the G.O.A.T!
Can never get tired of MJ highlights
Same
Same here
💯you ain't lying
Is beautifull to watch
I love watching the reaction videos when young ppl see him for the 1st time!! MJ was just different!!
It's hard to believe that time flies by so quick, and MJ turning 60. Happy Birthday, MJ!! It really seems like yesterday when I was a junior high kid watching The Flu Game, him hitting the iconic game winner in 98, and him crying in the locker room holding the game ball after winning the Finals in 1996, in tribute to his father, winning the title on Father’s Day - which is my favorite MJ moment of all time. Epitome of excellence and a competitor, AND defying gravity. He wanted to beat the opponents, disease, and even natural forces at their best.
Facts!! Don’t seem like it was tht long ago. I was a junior too in high school in 97
you mean the food poison game 😆
I’m so envious of people like you who witnessed his entire career as it happened, live. 😢 If there’s something I’d like to change about my life, just even one thing, is to be alive during those days. To be able to experience that excitement of the greatest basketball career of all time and maybe of all sports! That’s all i wish for 😭
LeBron James disagrees.
@@rahardyan Who cares
Im 44 years and a look over and over again to all these plays and in excited like the first time in the 90s. Love for the GOAT.
I never get tired of watching. Went to a lot of games at the Stadium, saw some of his iconic plays, followed the Bulls on the tube religiously. It was so damn much fun. The Bulls were a well-oiled machine
Happy birthday, MJ! You are the greatest of all time.
Shut up 😊 please
The Real LeGoat
🐐🐐🐐
GOAT James is the greatest.
@@paulalbert6970 6 finals losses while abandoning 4 teams HAHAHA
35 years ago and he still looks like the future.
u dickriding tf outta him 😂 bron clears
Brud this right here is the truest statement ever said lol
Jordan is timeless!
That is such a valid statement after that many years no one has caught up which is amazing.
that is why when your are watching in the 90s, you were watching the present and the future of basketball and MJ is the epitome of a great basketball player
Never gets old, does it ? For the ages - just wished we had HD versions of these videos, it would make it even more amazing to see the details. The GOAT
Thank God I was able to watch this man’s career at a time in my life as an early 80’s baby to a teenager, growing up wearing the shoes and jerseys, watching the games and seeing these moments happen in real time. Almost brought a tear to my eye watching the top 15 moments. Im a lifelong Lakers fan. Kobe is my favorite player, along with Magic and Shaq trailing behind him, respectively. But Michael Jeffrey Jordan was the best player ever in the history of the game.
Agreed. I grew up a die hard lakers fan and hated to root against him in the 91 finals. But this man will always be the GOAT
How can anyone watch this and say with a straight face there's anybody better 🤔 his strength, awareness, quickness, bb IQ, and grace are unreal. Truly the GOAT happy birthday his airness Michael Jordan. 🎂
They simply don’t understand! He’s the GOAT by far
For real
No one better
@@no12578 Dickrider

@@jakelockley3200 passing, rebounding, finishing, court vision, defensive versatility, 3 point shooting, strength, speed, longevity……
@@TheRealRickyShow scoring only 8 points in a finals game while in his prime, getting outscored by a 33 year old role player who came off the bench, getting locked up defensively by a 5ft10 guard, getting swept in the finals twice, missing the playoffs 4 times, excessively teaming up with fellow all stars, have his legacy saved by kyrie and ray allen, most turnovers in NBA history, 20 years in the NBA and only played one season where he played all 82 games is what you should've said
I’m 23 and Jordan was way before I started watching but I can respect his greatness unlike some of these new clowns “done with the 90s” bruh he was so dominant in his era the entire league feared him and basically unanimously declared him as the goat that’s how far ahead he was
Shows how trash the rest of the league was, Jordan is great tho just lebron is better 🤷♂️
19 minutes of Goosebumps.
I honestly had forgotten how unbelievable MJ was.
I’ve never forgotten on how great the goat was
Not me lmaao
I haven’t
Be careful what you say. MJ will probably take it personally.
shame on you! lol
This man can’t be compare to anyone. He is in league of his own
Is it so sad most of the sports analyst are saying Lebron is the GOAT after he got the scoring title. Scary thing is these are the people who come on TV to say these things soon or later they can brain wash people to believe Lebron is the GOAT. Even Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce who always said Jordan was the GOAT few days ago they said Lebron is the GOAT after he got the scoring title.
@@MusicLuv80 the media is sold bro
@@MusicLuv80 someone who played opinion matter more than your opinion
@@MusicLuv80 It is laughable and corny at this point to try to elevate LJames over MJ, one is pure art and the other travels and flops, just watch his "fadeaway" for the scoring record, it was a shot as ugly as you can get.
Yep....Super Saiyan 🔥
Over here watching these highlights in 2024 and still amazed! I grew up watching MJ so I knew what to expect, but these plays with the hang time, good gravy. Sorry LeBron fans, MJ is forever the GOAT!
I seen Michael Jordan play the Celtics in person in Boston. Even though you're rooting for your team to kick his ass you couldn't help but be in awe of the guy. He was truly amazing
Those double clutch layups looks so impossible and Michael always did it smoothly, happy birthday MJ
One of the best styles of basketball I’ve ever seen
Still waiting for another player to win MVP, DPOY and scoring title in one season. Happy 60th, MJ!
Naw, you forgot something.. He also led the League in Steals, and was the All-Star Game MVP in that same season.. So all that in one season… Ain’t no one coming close to that
@@shurone8829 and the iconic slam dunk contest.
@@darrellglover493 dam, you right..
@@darrellglover493 And had his 2nd season of 200+ steals and 100+ blocks...the only player to do it more than once.
Also led the league in steals, All Star Game MVP, Dunk champ, First Team All NBA and All Defensive First Team…though missing Finals MVP - still heck of a season by an individual. Like who’s gonna be the next to pull this off, and add with a Finals MVP?
How can you be so good, its almost unreal
He was a PHENOMENAL Athlete and WE were lucky enough to be alive to witness his ability during the time that he played the game. Michael Jordan is a *Living Legend,* and he was BORN to play Basketball on the World's Stage.
No traveling, no gather steps, no flopping, no complaining, no carrying, hard defense = the GOAT
Man, those "gather step" egregious travelling moves like Harden's in the Houston years are so annoying.
I mean there were definitely gathers
Good points but without points.
MJ makes BB worth watching --- can fall asleep watching BronBron - MJ is the real deal!
Gather steps are literally part of the game lol. You pick the ball up as you step, then 2 steps.
Growing up in Chicago, I watched MJ from the very beginning ... we all knew we were witnessing an absolute LEGEND. Greatest athlete of all time and the epitome of a WINNER.
Thank you for that comment
You have no idea how super lucky you were and still are. I wish I were you.
we NOT done with the 90s
Jordan was ahead of his time.
MJ is differrent Creature, What a Player. One and Only GOAT.

@@rahardyan actually lebron's favorite player is Michael Jordan so he'd agree
@@hitmanagent871 if you ask him now, he'd probably change his answer to Magic 😂
He is the real GOAT,I think no one can replace him
The greatest player in the history of the NBA, hands down
watching this is pure joy
there isnt a hooper alive who doesnt owe something - whether a move, their style, their love of the game - to this man. he is to the game what BB King is to guitar. sure everyone can imitate their greatest moves these days, but only one did it FIRST. respect to the King but this is the GOAT.
Many people say that Federer was the best, but when he played vs Nadal he played 100% and we knew that he will be beaten. When Jordan played people knew that he is special and had that killer mindset. So we all know what could happen if Jordan would play vs Lebron. Jordan was beaten in the eighties many times but we all know who is the best.
it's unbelievable the way he viciously dunking on those big men. The man had no fear, a cold blooded killer! Happy Birthday True GOAT!
Half the guys he dunked on in this video admitted defeat in mid-air lmao
Great reel! So many memories. The GOAT.
Only the goat can did that....mj is the best...🎉🎉🎉
What stands out to me is his insane body control. Everything he does is fluid and controlled and done with finesse. He makes it look effortless. Closest thing you'll see to ballet in a sport.
Agreed. Poetry in motion.
fr dude got that Westbrook athletics, Kyrie craftiness on finishing while being more fluid than those guys and being elite on defense lol and IQ!
Jordan and Roger Federer and Jerry Rice and Wayne Gretzky..
Closest thing to a cat
And the fact that he did that every damn game, even the all star games. To be able to play at that level and intensity nonstop was a physical feat.
Crazy that the Bulls were DOWN 85-86 to the Jazz with 17 seconds left in the Finals, and instead of going for a quick bucket Jordan chose to run the clock down before taking his “last shot”. True confidence.
A quick basket would have just meant that the Jazz had more time to shoot the last shot. It's normal for every NBA team to hold the ball to have the last shot or the last good shot of the game in that situation.
The Jazz had ample time to run a quick play but Stockton missed his 3 pt. shot. They should've gone for a 2.
@@zimbu_ Sorry, but your are incorrect. Most teams would drain the clock to take the last shot IF IT WAS TIED OR THEY HAD THE LEAD. Rarely do you ever see teams drain the clock to take the last shot when they are behind.

I just don't get how on earth, some people say that there's someone in history of basketball better than this guy. The plays, the aesthetics, the drama, the clutch, the championships, the fierce and competitiveness... just unparalleled.
It’s because they didn’t ACTUAL watch him play live. They think we think he’s the greatest because of his highlights. Once you watch him live you’ll see there NO ONE that even come close to beating MJ.
I know right it's just dumb I can't believe it
@@erfansvideos Not true, I just had a little discussion with a guy who's 48, and thinks LBJ is better and that it's not even close. Said that a Lebron top 60 would be much better than this one.... Well....what can you say? Maybe he thinks MJ's too much of an ego which he doesn't like or something....
@@sandervandenberg977 Go back to that guy and tell him he knows NOTHING about basketball or the NBA OR you can tell him to go ask over 75% of pro NBA players who they think is better and he’ll get the same answer. There’s no one better when MJ is on the court. Lebron is only in the discussion of the goat because of his “stats” against really no competition. The real competitors were in the 90s and MJ blew all of them away. He just a salty MJ hater..there’s a lot them around.
@@erfansvideos bron is playing in a league where dropping 40 isn’t even surprising now 😭 lets give this era some credit

Remember: this can never be taken away from us…no phony arguments, no hit-pieces, no besmirching of a once in a lifetime legacy…this will stand the test of time for us real basketball fans! Happy birthday, Mike!
They tried to take Down Michael Jackson
Watching from Kuwait past and present how MJordan playing the basketball we live MJ too much fans esp from all Pilipino young generation and old
There's been an NBA before MJ, and another one after MJ. Athleticism, elegance, speed, moves, mentality, top scorer and intense defense. In order to allow other players to get close to what he did, NBA had to change the rules. How many more titles would have he won, and how many points would have he scored without those two pauses in his career?
Grew up watching Jordan because of my uncle and his old tapes, he's the player who got me interested in basketball and I've still yet to see a player as good as him. Happy 60th birthday to my personal GOAT.

I don't know how you could watch this and think anyone has ever been or will ever be as good as MJ. Greatest of all time! Period. End of story. Thank you come again!
👏
Yup
You forgot to drop the mic
That’s why the only argument they have for the LeBron is “he was the best player of the league for a longer period of time.” Michael Jordan was more dominant relative to his era and accomplished way more in a much shorter time frame. The fact that his 13 seasons with the Bulls is comparable to other people’s 20 seasons is unparalleled.
@@Kimeikus Lebron is better than Jordan. He does everything better than Jordan as a individual player. Please don't ever talk about Basketball ever again.

I never get tired of watching MJ. Watched this several times & I’m still amazed of how he played. My 4ever GOAT!❤️
Happy 60th the one who defined an entire era & helped launched basketball to the global phenomenon it is today. MJ the greatest to ever do it.
Happy 60th Birthday to THE LEGEND, HIS AIRNESS, THE GOAT, Michael Jordan! 🐐🏀👑
Not only was he the perfect basketball athlete but good God how much fun was to watch him play, so exciting, took the game of a basketball to a whole new level.
G.O.A.T with out a doubt! This was fantastic to watch
Still the Greatest Athlete Of All Time 🐐
This is the best video I've seen of his highlights. No stupid music, multiple slow mo replays and the announcers audio left in, really captures the essence of the moment and how powerful the plays are. Fantastic video.
I mean no one else was able to do it. The NBA has all the source material and footage, and could release an upscaled version like this one.
I downloaded it. It's really the best quality video summary of why he was so special
U got it man. Hahaha
If only there displayed a scoreboard
I'm brazilian and here basketball wasn't popular when i was child. But something that i really knew, Michael Jordan was a god... My best friend had a action figure of Michael wearing the Tune Squad uniform...
The greatest of all time. Anyone denying that is living in denial.😂
Happy Birthday MJ. The Goat and a killer on the court. No excuses, always played hard.
MJ is the only one who kept me sane during high school
What do you mean he kept you “sane”
MJ = Legend
Babe Ruth, Ali, Jordan… These are people that define the greatest.
A lifetime isn't even enough to countdown his best plays and highlights. Simply the GOAT!
If you wanna see just about all of them there's a five hour video called "Legend of the Greatest"
thats not a highlights..thats his regular play..
NO LOAD MANAGEMENT NEVER FLOPS MJ is the GOAT
Its wild how he never looks out of control. Switching hands mid air back to the basket fighting through three guys throwing the ball off high glass and its like he planned it all that way from the start.
We used to call it the ✂️ lay up!
He was the tactician of the art form of which he possessed graceful and nimble his style was unmatched it was a pretty sight to behold..
The man has no weakness. Just flawless in GOAT fashion!
Absolutely beautiful to watch. The real GOAT at work. Thank you Michael for giving and inspiring millions to play and live the game of basketball.
Great MJ legend
Happy Birthday GOAT! Thanks to NBA for these 60 career plays of MJ but we all know there's more so we wish more birthdays for the GOAT so that NBA can add more plays.

Yeah MJ would absolutely smoke leflop.
19 Minutes of Micheal Jordan highlights? Splendid
MJ is the greatest player ever, there is no discussion.
Kobe is better sorry my opinion
Shoutout to the commentators whose words were so on point!

That's exactly who he is the past the present and the future 💯
Jordan would get bodied by high school kids now😂
@Riddick Barnes yeah just like he got bodied Ewing Shaq and any other Center or power forward that was in the 75th best NBA players which he played against most of them. Shut the fuc* up. You know nothing when Shaq who's 300lbs said he was terrified of Jordan than who the hell is going body him in any era, your ass as smart as someone using waterproof teabags when making tea. Jordan was a lot stronger than he looked he was so quick and had so much body control he went right by people.
