[@bradleyboyer9979]

A lot of the layups he made couldn't have been duplicated by any player in NBA history. Think about that. With all the freakish athletes and the popularity of basketball, his skill set is still that unique. One of the best leapers ever, HUGE hands, dexterity, creativity... I almost never say "there will never be another ______", but with MJ, it's true.

You Will Remember The Play is One Of The Greatest Example Of His Enormous Big Hands, The Great Body Control, Air Suspended, Even Thinking His Next Move, While He's Floating in The Air. 👉🏽Fly #23 M.J. He Will Be The G🏀at For Ever in My Opinion... ✍🏽 And I'm a Knicks Fan, He Destroyed n Kick it Us Out Of The Playoffs Us Almost Every Year Since The Late 80's to 98...

It's not that hard actually, basketball can be fixed by removing the 3 point line. It will revert to inside basketball again because that would be the highest percentage shot to take. Dunking and laying it up. That would be very exciting to watch. We would get big dominant bigs again.

[@LazyCrazyGuy]

​​@@impacc4182clearly you don't know much and you're talking out your cheeks. Jordan retired in 2003 and LeBum didn't dominate nothing. He played in a weak Eastern Conference that managed to get him to lots of Finals appearances and almost as many losses because the West was deep. His 2007 Finals run consisted of beating not one but two .500 teams in the Nets and Wizards while his team was .609 on the season. The only team worth mentioning that he beat was the .646 Pistons. Then he and his Cavs got dismantled in a sweep by the .707 Spurs. That conference is so weak that the Pistons would have been a 4th seed in the West while being 1st in the East. Cavs would have been a 6th seed in the West instead of 2nd in the East 😅 LeBum wouldn't be seen again until 2011 where he got locked up by a 35 year old Jason Terry and held him to a measly 8 points in game 5 of the Finals while LeQueen joined a superteam with Wade and Bosh. Meanwhile Dirk carried his 2011 Mavericks to a championship being the sole Superstar on that team and being the leading scorer on his team every game. Dirk would have more rings than LeJumpToANewSuperTeam if Dirk took the LeNeedsMoreHelp approach. Don't mention that bum in videos showing the GOAT 🐐 MJ. Mike would have made LeQuit cry on the court if he wasn't an investor for the Wizards. He was nice at that point in his career.

Senseless moves..🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I feel so damn lucky to have been around to watch MJ during those prime years. WHEW. Young folks can't fully understand the gloriousness of Jordan without having seen him back then.

Even the announcers went crazy😂

6 foot 6 inches , vertical 48 inches combined with a 4.3 sec in 40 yards and skill and hard work , and an insane killer mentality you got yourself micheal Jordan

[@kenmasters2025]

40 is irrelevant in basketball. MJ had near Iverson level quickness at his height. insane.

Best of all times, NBA has never been the same since he left!

He was the best because he played consistently at this level! I and millions of others, we were there live to see these highlights in the 80’s and 90’s, his intensity and momentum seemed to never waiver! Before M.J., became that guy, Magic Johnson was the overall best to me in the 70’s and 80’s, but Michael Jordan came along and raised the bar even higher! And in my opinion no one has matched it yet! (Derrick Rose, was the following potential runner up but major injury cancelled out his shot)……but there’s one guy showing the superlative potential to reach it today but currently his weight, frequency of injuries and overall health grade appears to be a barrier that may prevent him from entering the stratosphere where only Michael Jordan resides…….and that rookie star player is “🏀 Ja Morant 🏀”….in my opinion.
