Jordan was the greatest cause he just did every single attribute incredibly well. Plus his mid jump game was absolutely impeccable.

[@johnjamesleahy4065]

Kobe will always be my favorite of all time, and lebron, bird etc are all great but jordan is the only one i always felt like i was watching magic happen watching him all the time

[@stevennieves8308]

The major difference between Larry Bird & MJ is Bird Never played with a bad team (until his final years with the Celtics) & Bird Never had to Carry a bad team on his back for 4-5 years like MJ. So, to all you Larry Bird fans who like to say Bird was better than MJ, I absolutely disagree. MJ played with bad teams until he & the Bulls organization together made them a great team.

[@rayc6206]

I disagree. Bird made the teams he was with better. Compare the year before Bird joined the Celtics and after. Also look at the year Bird was out due to surgery.

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

blah blah blah better best goat IMO "in my opinion". get a life watch the games save your opinions for your wife or your drunk buddies at the bar, cuz nobody cares what you or i think blah blah blah blah. my opinion? they're both incredible ballers and champions. Disciplined, dedicated, tough as nails, talented. winners. both. "taking in to account"....yeah. injuries, teammates, timing, competition all that who's to say? circumstances do affect careers. Barkley should have won a half dozen championships, if one guy's talent was the only deciding factor.

[@direkramseychikboy9102]

@Joel Villarreal Celtics was a bad team in 1979 when Bird joined the team. They only had Cowens, Maxwell, Archibald, Maravich, Chris Ford, ML Carr and Robey. But Bird turned it into a Title contender.

[@Dbails-wu6gu]

So here’s the deal with Bird and Jordan. Any team that is lucky enough to have either of these two play for them, would be ecstatic at the very least. NOBODY would be complaining. Two of the very best EVER. Appreciate Greatness! But screw Lebron, cause he’s a flopper. Also, he has to recruit other all stars to win. Then if he doesn’t win, it’s everyone else’s fault, even though he picked his teammates. Alright....done venting

[@JayZoop]

Jordan played better than Bird but the Celtics had a well oiled team.

bulls lost first 3 games of 1990/91 season and this was probably that 3rd game.

[@mattginther859]

2 great players, 2diff. styles. Just hate seeing people forget how great bird was. He took a team with 28 wins to 60 plus, just with his addition, and didnt have no where near the athletic abilty of jordan, also 3 straight mvp's in his prime, pretty special.

[@x-man9473]

No one forgets about how great Bird is. People talk about Bird so much, they almost ignore all of the context around his legacy. If anything, Jordan fans constantly talk nicely about Bird. Bird fans spend their time trying to antagonize Jordan

[@RichardWolfe79]

Nice dunk at 0:53 IMO.

[@toddstamos89]

Not sure how this is “revenge” other than regular season, competitive games (which is sadly missing in today’s game).

[@jordansoviet23]

Jordan doesn't want to pad his stat and besides they already killed their opponent so what's the use of stat padding just to make yourself look good? Jordan doesn't stat pad.

[@youllhavetowait]

04:00 James Harden creating space?!?

[@fatboy5926]

For all the comments “I fail to see how this is a revenge game. It’s a regular season game” the next time a team wins a regular season game on a “lucky” game winner and it’s between 2 teams with the quality of MJ and Bird and they play each other like 3 days later (if that sounds like a lot of qualifiers that is the scenario in the video 🤷‍♂️) have a look at sports media reaction and how they hype up the game and tell me if it’s worthy of a revenge game. If this scenario happened in today’s game with MJ vs Bird sports media shows would be creaming in their undies

[@fatboy5926]

We all know what you really saying anyway 😉

[@tamellnewton5417]

What did mj avg against the celtics

[@x-man9473]

@Cloyd Moore He had the W here making your point irrelevant

[@JayZoop]

This is not a season highlight reel. This is one game. How about his dunk over Parish and Bird at the same time at 5:23.

[@JayZoop]

@Cloyd Moore It's something Mr. Hill should be very proud of.

[@x-man9473]

@Cloyd Moore During that game where Bias "outscored" Jordan, he was nowhere near the same stratosphere as Jordan. >Jordan was being double teamed while Bias was hitting wide open shots. >Jordan was scoring from all over the floor, making defensive stops, and running fast breaks. Bias was hitting a wide open jump shot from the same spot. But you want to guve credit to him for outscoring him when scoring was literally the only job he was doing in the game?

[@princeprince9227]

@Cloyd Moore aren't you the guy who said stats dnt mean shit without the W lol

[@Blackman19498]

@@x-man9473 I am sorry my friend you don't know basketball, bias was a beast!! And if he would have joined a aging Celtics team he would have gained a whole lot of knowledge !! And I am telling you Jordan would not have had 6 ring's!! Maybe 4 but not 6!!!

I don’t see how a home and home in the first week of the season could qualify as a “revenge” scenario. You get revenge for playoff series from the season before, not regular season games.

[@woketv781]

Bird had 4 hall fame caliber teammates

[@x-man9473]

The Celtics were a 1st seed and the Bulls were a 8th seed. 1st seed teams sweep 8th seed teams in the playoffs every year. Even the Bulls did this in the first round during their 1st 3 peat. It's disrespectful to Larry Bird's legacy that you fake fans keep making that common accomplishment a staple of his legacy in order to shit on MJ.

Had to wait till Larry Bird got injured in order to beat him though.

[@FazGaming]

a very rare win for MJ over Bird.

[@birdford33]

True. Even when Bird was broke down and playing with less than great teammates, he usually handed Jordan his ass.

[@FazGaming]

@Ramses Stafford Bird dominated Mike. Lay off the pipe

[@FazGaming]

@Ramses Stafford MJ had a terrible record against the 3 time MVP. Swept twice in playoffs and only won when Larry hurt his back. These are facts.

[@FazGaming]

@Ramses Stafford wow and you call me delusional. I think that jockstrap needs cleaning.

[@birdford33]

@Ramses Stafford Last time I checked, it wasn't a one on one league. But do some research. Bird could back Jordan in the paint and score on him at will. I guess a dunk counts for more than 2 points in your mind lol. Let me guess, you're black? Oh, that's right. I forgot. Only white folks can be racist. My bad.

[@BoxPro-]

Jordan in prime vs Bird of injuries/surgery....that's what it took for Jordan to beat Bird

[@TheSands83]

Derek let’s get real here the teams jordan had in 86 and 87 compared to Jordan just shows how dumb u r to compare the 2🤦‍♂️ Jordan only hung a all time playoff high in points 63 after coming back from injury.. Celtics had 5 hall of famers on that team

[@mannymatencio1279]

@@TheSands83 bird has 17 wins to 11 loses to jordan, overall he got 23 to 11 including the playoffs old bird has 6 wins to 8 loses when he got scottie pippen but in those games bird average 25 ppg to pippen 19 ppg. The old bird with back problem can still handle those champions bulls

[@mannymatencio1279]

@Ulysses432 without a clear cut competition he beat an old piston team, an old Lakers team and almost as equal on an old Celtics team, sorry bud that 6 titles Jordan have won was not as quality as the elite prime teams in the 80's

[@mannymatencio1279]

@Ulysses432 the pistons are the better team compared to all the teams the bulls beat in their all NBA finals.

[@mannymatencio1279]

@Ulysses432 dude the pistons core are old except for Thomas and dumars, Thomas was slowing down even in that young age, dumars was never a superstar but the core of Vinnie, laimber and Edward's even aguirre are old, there is no rule that NBA during that time to imposed the type of physicality the pistons played that way so they take advantage on that one. You Discrediting piston 2 championship because of how they play is ridiculous in any of man's perspective a champion is a champ.

[@Fakename70]

What “revenge” is that? I’m assuming it’s a reference to the 63 piece of the ‘86 playoffs that the Jordan fanboys are always barking about? You know, the one where Boston won the game, series and championship? The part they never mention, of course. I’m thinking “revenge” would’ve been Chicago eliminating Bird-era Boston on their way to the championship. But, that never happened.

[@x-man9473]

This is a perfect example of MJ haters so quick to whine on a MJ video that they can't even pay attention and process information. The Celtics had just beat them the previous game. And this game was the Bulls avenging the loss and destroying the Celtics.

[@Fakename70]

@@x-man9473 Just as your comment is a perfect example of a Jordan fanboy coming to the rescue for their hero. I was watching a random Larry Bird video at work the other day and brought it up with a co-worker I talk sports with. His immediate response was, “yeah, but he can’t touch Jordan.” What the fuck did anything have to do with Michael Jordan? The jury’s still out as to whether or not you’re one of them, but, the Jordan fanboys are absolutely the worst.
