December 27th, 1997. 12 year old white boy from Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada lucky enough to have an uncle and aunt who lived in Highland Park, IL. Uncle told me that morning we were going out for a bite to eat that evening at “Mike’s Place”, be sure to wear your MJ jersey and Js. Evening comes and all of sudden we are close by the United Center. I still figured we were going to MJs restaurant. Start walking and suddenly we are in front of a gate to the stadium. I looked at my uncle with a weird look and said I thought we were going to “Mikes place” for supper and he replied, with the biggest smile “Yes, why do you think we are here?” I was completely and literally shocked and wasn’t sure if it was a joke. Bulls played the Hawks that night. I remember it all so very well and always will. Few things that still stand out: 1 - the intro music, that’s when I realized it was real. I asked my uncle why the crowd was booing Luc Longley every time he touched the ball and being told it was no booing but it was the crowd yelling LUuuuuuuuuuccc!! 2 - binoculars so my uncle could see the cheerleaders better 😂😂😂 3 - rodman had 29 freaking rebounds! 4 - MJ scoring 47! And Phil taking him out with lots of time left and him not hitting 50! 5 - the crowd cheering and encouraging rodman to shoot when he had the ball, especially if he was behind the 3 point line, and him doing so and hitting a 3!!!! We were in IL for Xmas and everyone knew I was going to the game, every1 kept it secret! Best Xmas present EVER and best surprise EVER! Biggest MJ fan before and bigger after! 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐😊

[@tybtyler9186]

I was 5 when they won the last time ‘98. One of my first ever vivid memories was being at Grant Park for the parade. It felt like the entire city of Chicago was there. The only thing that came close was the Cubs WS win in ‘16, but even that didn’t have the same feeling. I can only imagine what the city was like for the first 5.

Have to give Michael every accolade possible.

He made it all possible for black and white NBA and eventually WNBA players to make business moves to further engage their opportunities for wealth. God blessed that man

[@shawnchong8468]

I was someone who does not like basket ball prior to watching MJ on the television set. In contrast, I was a soccer fanatic. Until I was almost 21, I went to the US for my college education from Asia. One fine day in 1991 while I was switching the channels, I stumbled upon a Chicago Bulls playoff game live on NBC. This was also the season MJ and the Bulls won their first NBA title. I was totally stunned and captivated by the moves and dunks of MJ. He made the game looks articulated and beautiful. From that moment on, I totally changed my bias towards the game. I started watching MJ and the Bulls whenever they played. Prior to that, I did come across past legends on the screen, like Karim and others. To me, it was nothing but a tall man putting the ball in the net. MJ is totally different from his predecessors of the game, he is out of this world. He made the game so fascinating to watch. He is exactly like Superman performing his superpower on a basket court. He totally changed my perception of game as a sport. It is like an atheist, not believing the existence of the higher beings or the Divine until he witnessed it with his own eyes. MJ became an indelible part of my memory.

[@maldad9073]

I got to see them both, beginning to end of their careers. They were virtually identical in their game and mentality, but the only thing that set them apart was MJ was physically gifted in a couple of ways that Kobe wasn't. MJ had those huge hands, combined with amazing bounce and quickness.

Jordan resume is ridiculous if we being honest too 🤣 10 scoring titles, 9 1st team all defense, 6 finals mvps, 6 rings, only player ever to win MVP, scoring champ, and 1st team all defense.. and he did it 4 times 🤣 1.

One of the best stories I’ve heard about MJ is that one told by Byron Scott “So they’re getting off the bus, we’re done with shootaround, and we’re walking out and MJ says, ‘B Scott, what’s going on?’ I said, ‘What’s up, MJ?’ he said, ‘Man, I hear that you’re not playing tonight.’ I said, ‘No, I sprained my ankle.’ He said, ‘Who’s guarding me?’ I said, ‘Anthony Peeler.’ He’s like, ‘50.’ [laughs].

[@pallen49]

At the end of the day, basketball is also a form of entertainment...Meaning, we pay or watch something to be entertained...So thru out history of basketball, there's been many great players with great handles, great shooters, great strong big men, big men can do things smaller men can, there's been great moves, and so on..but there's one thing that set Michael apart, the thing that he can with that extra ' HOLY SHIT ' response from the fans and that is ' in the air '.. And yes, there's been 'sky walkers ' aka David Thompson, Dr J ( who's actually my favorite, my GOAT ) but Michael seems to defy the gravity even more so and he's also quicker and faster in the air...THAT, is what I think sets him apart is what he does in the 'air' , and no human / player will ever be able to duplicate what he did.. We are more in 'awe ' when we see or think a human can fly or float...It's something we all dream of since we were kids.. Michael is the closest thing to it..

It's not even about trashing Lebron. But the people who try to put him in the same conversation as Jordan are just doing a disrespect to the game. If you didn't see it... YOU DON'T KNOW! Just respect and accept that there was a level of greatness you missed out on.

Hope young people understand the term He is the MICHAEL JORDAN OF.... That's how humongous MICHAEL JEFFERY JORDAN THE GOAT is... He is up there, below him everyone else... THERE IS ZERO COMPARISSON, NOTHING, NADA.!!! no one is close to him, Kobe was close and yet he was still far... Imagine LeFraud, lol hes not even close, he cant compete, he needs help all the time and the media keeps promoting it, "more help for James". Lexcuse = MOOAT (Most Overrated of All time)

I could watch Stories about MJ ALL NIGHT❤❤❤LOVE ME SOME MIKE🔥🔥🔥

[@Devmac89]

See the thing is Lebron is amazing. Probably the best all around player but MJ had the HEART and he feared no one. Jordan is undisputed im sorry

[@o2bjedi]

One of my favourite Jordan moments is from Above & Beyond. The montage played after he announces his retirement leaves me breathless every time I watch it 😳 #SonicsForever

[@frankiefernandez9225]

MJ 🐐🐐🐐🐐

[@C.WendyHenderson]

Micheal Jordan had the glow like in the movie "The Last Dragon". Lots of Love and Respect to Black Jesus. It was pure beauty to see him and the entire team "The Bulls" play the game of basketball. Thank you!

GOAT NOT EVEN CLOSE

1st- awesome video. Really enjoyed it. Best story was from Lebron actually. Never seen that.

[@matchbox8135]

People say Muhammad Ali and Jordan are Goat. Mayweather and Lebron says they are the goat? 😅

[@seancrowley3142]

Omg, how good those Dream Team scrimmages must have been! Perhaps the finest basketball ever played?🤔

Jordan is a basketball god. Just keep the g lower case.

Kobe and mj do not belong in the same sentence....at all. I hate this false narrative like they are 1 and 1A.... It's ridiculous and completely untrue. Life long lakers fan btw.

[@MackP414]

I love these Jordan stories. Jordan represented the 90’s era so well.

[@JosephAdams-ly1lx]

MJ is a great player but to put as a GOD is not good we have to learn to respect GOD and not wait for him to speak to you because you won't be laughing believe me💯✌️🙏peace

if you say a chef is a "god" in the kitchen, noone would take this quote serious. here in the comment section i see various hypocrites complaining about it being blasphemous to call jordan "black jesus" which is clearly just a homage to his skills on the basketball court and not an offense to god at all.

[@JosephAdams-ly1lx]

Jesus is one the most high GOD you should never be playing with that name a lot of shit can happen in vain use of that name then it won't be funny peace

I had the pleasure of meeting Michael in my home town of Wheaton Illinois where he held his basketball camp. I remember him playing in a pickup game of College players and pros like, BJ Armstrong, Will Purdue, Charles Oakley and others. The biggest impression he made on me was two fold, the fact that he played (literally) head and shoulders above everyone on the court! And his humility and humbleness, and his kind nature when I asked him at the end of what had been a long day to come over and sign some autographs for the group of handicapped adults that I had brought to see him! No black Jesus, no walking on water, just a humble guy who was very tired but took some time to sign up and chat up my group of about 12 individuals who will never forget that day! I myself don't worship people but the one thing that made me understand how people do, is when I went out the back where my bus was parked and his black Corvette was parked and it was covered bumper to bumper with notes from women! I really felt bad for the guy, I remember how human he was, how tired and how many people were still waiting outside to try to get a piece of him!

@@DynoGreen313 Caucasians range from the Western border of Europe to the Eastern border of Russia and everywhere in between. They also range all the way to the Southern border of Saudi Arabia. You do not have to be European to be Caucasian and I never claimed that he was European. He was Jewish and therefore Caucasian. He is from the tribe of Judah.

The reason Larry Bird said god was disguised as MJ in a basketball uniform was to let everybody know that god couldn't beat him. Bird was 23-11, including 6-0 vs "god" in the playoffs. Most legendary subtle trash talk in the history of sports. #goat 🐦 0:03

I’m from Scotland but have family in Chicago. I went to live there for 3 months back in the 1990s. Jordan was worshipped like a God. There was massive paintings of him on the sides of buildings. Down by the lake they had a museum full,of images and memorabilia belonging to him. I visited the Nike store and there was a full size basketball court and it had a statue or something in it of the man himself. Chicago was all about basketball, and they love Mike.
