"Lace em up, it's gonna be a long night." That needs to be a Jordan brand t shirt
Prime Micheal Jordan would easily dominate todays NBA
Old man Jordan from the wizards
Stop it
prime Michael would easily dominate ANYdays NBA :) ;)
Captain obvious
You can say this about any all time great, they’re called ALL TIME greats for a reason
MJ was a KILLER. Never flopped. Never cried. Never gave up on his team.
Does LBJ flop? Yes! 😂
am I right to think that you were referring to LBJ after the "MJ was a KILLER" ...lmao
Never got swept in the finals never seen 7games in the finals never jumped teams to win a ring after being beat over and over by the pistons, he over came climbed the mountain not once but twice after retirement no one else has ever done that . Wow .
Lmao, the hate is unreal 😂
HEY Lebron accomplished such all that
I don’t think in today’s game there will ever be a player confident enough to walk into the opposing team locker room and tell them he gonna make this game a living hell for them
They’d probably get fined & suspended nowadays.
Because now dudes are super powerful with they egos. In Mike's day everyone had to be a Man. Now you got ambassadors saying "Fuck [being a] man"
I love this true story about Michael Jordan told by Dominic and Doc. Priceless.
I think there are a lot that would. I don’t think there are many with the confidence or skill to make it happen.
Lace em up cuh, it's gon be a long ass night 😂😂😂
Prime MJ would lead the league in scoring every season in todays NBA. And he would probably be somewhere around 45 a game. In the 1987-88 season, MJ won MVP,DPOY, scoring champion , slam dunk championship, and all star game MVP. You will never ever see that again.
I love lebron, but compare MJ with him is absurd. MJ is a categeory himself Best defender and best offense at the same time Period
Prime MJ practically built the NBA.
With social media around to piss off MJ? It wouldn't even be fair.
He was also the steals leader
The way Dominique Wilkins told that story.... like in total awe. And Wilkins was an animal himself at the time. Gave me goosebumps.
That’s what cracks me up about how people today think they were less athletic/skilled back then. People forget about Dominiques and the David robinsons
There are literally countless videos and highlights of MJ. Hours upon hours upon hours that drop our jaw. Nobody's even close... GOAT23
Kobe is real close.
@@Bob-te3leclose, but no cigar...then enjoy a cigar and be happy he's learning from the goat.
That back-and-forth scoring by MJ and Dominique was like a choreographed, cinematic sequence💥💯
Wilkins and Bernard King going at it was also pretty astonishing what they produced and I'm a fan of MJ, Bird, Bernard King, Kareem, Wilkins, The Worm, Ginobili, Kobe, and The Stilt!
Mike Layup package was ahead of time bruh I swear. Lmao
Genuinely
TIMELESS is the appropriate term I guess for his lay up and dunk package. Not just ahead of its time.
MJ has to learn and master his layup. Lebron has to learn and master his flopping.
@@noreaction6430 🤣😂🤣😂 exactly 💯
I mean, I still Haven’t seen anyone able to finish like Jordan yet
You know, i feel sorry for modern NBA fans, who think ANYONE today, is anywhere close to the talent Mike had, i mean, there is No one even close !
Speak it!
Truth
Michael had a killer instinct that no one in the current nba has.
LeBron better.
@@spiplayrojo4745 You are exactly who flexjay is talking about. You're a sad specimen of basketball "fan." It's not close!
This man is a myth, a legend... If i hadnt seen him on tv live in the 90s, i would have doubted his existence. Is there another player, not only in basketball but in all sports, with such outrageous stories ??? NO... He was not playing basketball, he was toying with his opponents.. He only lost games, so that he had a motivation, something to live upon...
Only Bird with the Celts comes close
I saw him before Bird retired and Bird and the Celtics beat him 65% of the time and swept him and the Bulls in both playoff match-ups. He was crying on the bench near the end of the game in the final playoff loss to Bird--and Bird would trash talk them in the process. Jordan had a great game and skill, very athletic and tenacious, but he couldn't really beat Bird. Bird took an awful team to +30 wins his rookie year and showed out against the conference bully 76ers in the playoffs and then went on to win a title in year two. Bird made everyone around him so much better making an Indiana State Sycamore team in college who had never been to the tournament to a 33-0 record going into the National title game averaging like 32,13, and 5. Put Bird with any 4 good players and they will compete for titles--no coaching savant or Robin required. When Jordan left the team after the 3rd title, his team only lost 1 more game that regular season. Give me any 4 guys by position in the top 100 with Bird and that's a title against any line-up. Bird was that good and he has way more stories, legend, trash-talking. It's all on You tube and after watching him in-career and KZhead videos for years I still see new stuff surface after all these years. Check it--broken occipital, stitches, staples, bad back from '86 onward, clamp, the left-hand game, dislocated fingers, achilles tendenitis, trash-talking backing it up during the game, fighting, buzzer-beaters, steal playoff game saves, triple-doubles, the 30-10-10-9 steal almost quadruple-double game in 31 minutes (sat the entire 4th quarter because blowin out the Jazz), Magic sayin "he is the best basketball player ever", Jordan says "no one happier than me to see you retire", Gary Payton sayin "Bird will give it to you any way he wants to." Bird sayin "I am gonna take 2 dribbles and shoot it right in your face" to everyone or tellin Dominique "You don't belong in this league holmes". I only say all this because you speak like you are a good fan and have a good eye for the game. If you missed Bird, check hum out. There are hours and hours of different legends and stories and highlights. A treasure trove. Jordan is awesome, and Kobe, and LeBron, but Bird was so good he could fit perfect with anyone and never needed a 2nd superstar or "Robin". Peace.
Prime time
@@nathanrobinson3653 James Worthy "I'd rather play against Jordan then bird, Jordan made you look slow, bird made you look STUPID!"
Exactly. Watching Jordan in the 90's was the same feeling as watching Tiger in the 2000's. There was no other player that you just "knew" they were gonna win.
The master of on the court psychology. Jordan would rip your heart out and show it to you. The epitome of killer instinct. He didn’t buy space in your head, he owned space in your head. Old school mindset with new school moves. I mean, you didn’t mess with jumpman. With Dominique, greatness knows greatness….
Michael Air Jordan is The G.O.A.T. EVER !!! Support From France 🇨🇵
Jordan had 61 points and 10 rebounds with 4 steals. The two previous games he put up 50+ points as well.
Amd he generets his own shots Thats why always he toke the last shots Lebron hasnt that
A 12 foot giant would easily grab, 80 rebounds and get 50 blocks.
@@WalterModel45 Because he is Lechoke, he doesn't have the grit to take the last shot and put the team on his shoulder, he would crumble from pressure.
That Roenick story and Steve Kerr talking about that game without even knowing about Jordans bet with Roenick is absolutely unreal
13:22 When he runs Steve Kerr into the center Brad Daughterty off the dribble + spin cycle 😂😂😂
Jesus 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅
He was unstoppable one on one, he had so many moves to hit the defenders with. That move right there was crazy, you can't turn sideways or he will spin around you, you can't face him up either because he will go either side. Plus he can just shoot in your face from anywhere in the court anyway.
@@MoralesCorner Indeed man. I feel like Dennis Rodman when he said: "Why do y'all discuss the G.O.A.T.?" Kareem & LeBron have compiled all of the numbers and stats of the greatest, but when you turn on the tape it's a different story. In the later years of his career, MJ had the OPPOSING fans standing in ovation when he was hitting buzzer beaters. Check out the winners in his Wizards career against Cleveland & Phoenix in '01/'02.
He will always be the best!
Forget about seeing MJ ever played, don't even ever watch a video of MJ, you just have to listened to the stories of other great players and you know that MJ was the absolute GOAT.
When players like Shaq says that "i was scared af" " i didn't him dunk over me"
The stories are great... but people who didn't see him play in the 90s, in the context of the game as it was happening, just have no idea what they missed, and they never will!
The 🐐 created such a mystique like atmosphere in the NBA that no one does in today’s game!!
Yep. It was like watching someone with super powers play mere mortals.
23 videos in 23 days is phenomenal! Great job, nick! Excited to see every single one!
Thanks so much! Can’t wait to post them
Not to mention just before 2023
Awesome job!!! Can't get enough of MJ highlights and stories! These youngsters need to know the truth! 🐐
Dominique in his prime was the only dude that could go toe to toe with mike scoring
If 40yr old MJ averaged 21, he'd average 30 today at 40. These guys can't be breathed on, and MJ would score at will.
Granted he has aged like we all do.. But truthfully I think he would average more with him being such perfectionist 🤣😂🤣
These guys are also competing with a much larger talent pool and defenders that are more accustomed to the moves that Michael Jordan was pioneering in his time. I’m not denying that Jordan would do well in this high-scoring era, but to try and act like it would be easy for him is just stupid
He averaged 33.5 ppg in the NBA finals at 36 xd Crazy man
He was also out of shape, had two bad knees (tendinitis in both) and hadn’t played in 3 years. Before the knee injury that took him out in the first year in Washington, he was averaging 23/5/5, at 39 years old.
@@hankolson3845Defenders? Huh? They aren’t allowed to play actual defense anymore. I’m not blooming the players, but the rules that handcuff them.
Jordan was such an incredible player. Just break taking . His post game was probably the best I've ever seen along with Kevin McHale
😂😂"Lace'em up it's gon' be a long night" I love it, MJ is just UNBELIEVABLE
Crazy that MJ and DW averaged over 30 against each other! Absolutely scrapping against each other!
MJ averaged 30 for his career, so... not surprising on his part at all.
Thank you for featuring these MJ videos. He inspires me to be the best in whatever I do.
Mike totally played Roenick 😄
The way MJ gets his shots off, especially against contact, it doesn't matter how tall or how fast the defender is. You can see shades of players in today's game that understand it like derozan or kawhi and see why it's successful. Mike had a counter for everything. He would dominate today's game.
Thank you for preserving these great stories. Memories are already fading. Dominque at 7:52 said he told MJ he would bust Scottie Pippen's a$$ but Scottie wasn't playing in the NBA in that game. He was a rookie the next year.
😂😂
n tha 8o'z and early 9o'z chicago vs atlan'a was alwaze tha best games for tha nba seazon -- 'nique and mike alwaze show'd out, showtime all thru tha game 👑
I never missed a game on tv if could help it I miss watching MJ he’s the reason I fell in love with the game it’s just sad to see where it is now. 23 🐐💯
I remember an old interview when MJ was talking about how he and Dominiq Wilkins always pushed each other on the court
You are a legend for this. The way you edit the videos is incredibly unique and refreshing 👏🏽
Man the NBA was so different back then! I truly miss that era!😩
The best and most powerful era.i would put hi average in about 40_45 mj send chill up your spine.teams that are now making to the final wouldn't dream of that happening in that era
Im glad I got to witness this first hand, growing up in Chicago. Just imagine how good Jordan would have been if he hadn’t drank beers all day and played golf🤯🤯🤯 might have gone for Wilt’s 100!!😳😳
That last story was so well done…your getting better bro…keep up the great work 💪🏾
Thanks!
Mr Nick you have done the impossible you have made me a bigger Jordan fan which I thought was impossible . Keep up the good work I'm 49 and I thought I knew MJ but I'm finding out things I didn't know . The series your doing Mr Nick is just awesome and i have been binge watching
This is great. Thank you for taking time to make this. Must respect and thankfulness!
Thank you for your work brudda! Love hearing all the backstories from games I've watched my whole life!!
I like how humble these stories are too the players telling them are very genuine humans
all these videos just gave me chills over and over. truly GOAT
Nick long life for you bro.....this is insane.. these 23 videos could be a movie to keep for life..thank you man..thank you much
I think what Glen Rice said defines MJ: He was a fierce competitor on BOTH sides of the floor. That's uncommon. The man won MVP and DPOY in the same year, after all.
Kudos, excellent videos! Must have been hard work to stitch these stories together 👍
Looking forward to the rest! Liked and subscribed!
Mike was everywhere when I was a kid they always showed bulls games on t.v he had commercials movies Mike is a Global Mega Star everywhere!
I’ve come back to the start after watching some later episodes. Great series 🔥
good job with the videos. never get old watch MJ 23 stories
The way the game was played in the 80's and 90s was more passionate, the mentallity was stronger, more espectacular.
I remember watching 90% of MJ's games that were televised where I was at the time... but hearing the commentary of the aftermath is awesome. Nobody sat back & asked "what were you thinking"?; during that time in history. The reflection & interospect is awesome.
I am an adamant MJ fan not because I am old school but because It doesn't even make any difference have many other records LeBron earns there will never be another player like Michael .And just like Johnny Weismeller was the only true Tarzan MJ is the only true Goat
@@aaroncampbell7488 although witnessing it was great.... there's too much film that would dictate Mr. Jordan the absolute G.O.A.T. IF you actually pay attention, you can see the demeanor in players & if they wanted to just make a level or actually do something. I remember watching Dickerson but he got caught in BS. Then I watched LT (which changed defenses), watched Barry Sanders (who exaggerated Gail Sayers (but BETTER) & gave a whole new meaning to humility) & watched Peyton Manning (who went through BS & still won 2 rings). Mr. Jordan has PLENTY of games & highlights to review; but he NEVER once implied any 'chip' was because of him. Unlike lequeen. I'm glad you appreciate the TRUE G.O.A.T of the nba! Slainte!!
Awesome piece of history put together in video mate, great job!
plot twist: MJ scoreless in 1st quarter was him trolling.
Ready for them all Nice work bud
Thanks Don! Appreciate it
I’ve never seen that last story. That was awesome! Great content!!
walking to opponent locker room and saying "laces up it's gonna be a long night" u know beast mode is ON..
It was a blessing watching him growing up!!!!
The height to compete against any player, the strength to finish through contact, the agility to cross up the quickest of players, the ups to dunk over the tallest of players, the tenacity and demeanor never before seen in sports, the edge to put even Death himself in his place. MICHAEL JORDAN. He's the GOAT. And it ain't even close.
MJ must have ruined a lot of gamblers lives during his days.
@Ki Kim The odds were favoring MJ most of the time. Sports gamblers often tend to bet against the favourite for the thrill of winning big or simply trying to cover their losses, so I'd say definitely more people betting against MJ than for him.
I can't watch NBA games of today. Thank you for making these videos. Watching MJ battle during these times made my whole entire childhood. ❤
Yes let's see how it thank you for sharing this journey with Us

This dude does a fantastic job with these MJ videos!! Do an Ed Reed one pleeasssseeee
I dnt hear no body in the NBA talk about lebron like that, these guys are hall of fame players talking about mj like this, mj goat
There was Something psychopathic about Jordan's mindset he wants to beat you at anything at all costs not just basketball . He had no weaknesses and athletically he was on another level speed & vertical jump, then you have the fundimental skill level elite, and add in the clutch gene unbelievable. and just watching him play was poetry in motion beautiful game .
The way they handled the media 😍!
That MJ dunk over that Hawks center was nasty
That was such a great story! I loved it!
Glad you enjoyed!
Man I miss watching him the greatest ever for real
That's ENTERTAINING.............
Mj is my idol 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Hope you can number your video such as 1 of 23. So we can track which video we have seen. Great content dude.
that first one MJ was just asleep the entire first quarter then woke up in the second quarter and proceeds to do usual business dropping 56 points
Michael Jordan will always be the greatest the goat 🐐 period!!!!!!
I swear I’d give a year of my life to go back to this era
10:32 that was a nice pass to MJ 😎👌🏾🔥
This is really funny to me. I was 5 years old and my only game I’ve ever seen michael jordan play. Game 3 in Chicago and Michael has 10 beers and 26 rounds of golf before the game and does that. Makes my childhood memory that much better!
Nique & MJ - Great Competitors, Great Friends!
Look at that Hawks x Bulls game with prime Dominique and prime Jordan, game had more highlights than a quarter of today's NBA season. What a time in basketball.
