Most Historic Rookie Debuts at Madison Square Garden (1984-2019) | Ft. Michael Jordan, LeBron & More

[@user1164]

Micheal Jordans debut was probably the most iconic and just beautiful the run up the cock up for the dunk and the beautiful finish was just insane. I wish I was alive to see MJ play.

The MJ one is wild because his highlights were his most separating factor from everyone else: defense to instant offense.

[@Watts1792]

Jordan defense is A1 and is often overshadowed by his offensive skill

[@sign76]

Legend, the beginning of NBA history

[@danyulwilliams9823]

I love Michael Jordan’s rookie debut it’s my favorite one!! ❤😊❤😊❤😊❤💕 ❤️

[@blackthorne2001]

GOAT MJ his defense is insane even as a rookie.

[@rapzotic]

rookie Ai hitting a stepback 3 back in 96 is crazy. he really change the game both off and on the court.

[@ChrisDalton0099]

AI didn't invent stepbacks, Larry Bird and even Jordan were doing in the 80s, even Reggie. You just don't watch film.

[@rapzotic]

@@ChrisDalton0099nah they were snatching back the middys. I'm talking about the stepback 3. It was consider a bad shot back then. Plus the wide dribble it was considered a carry too. Real hoopers know this just watch closely.

[@pikatura_23]

​@@rapzotic well it wasnt actually 3 pointer either.the nba shortened 3 point line between 94 to 97.it was basically a long 2 compare to regular 3 point distance but i get your point.

[@sideshowbobsaget8876]

​@pikatura_23 Actually, the shorter line was a corner 3. The corner 3 stayed the same length.

[@sideshowbobsaget8876]

​@@rapzoticVan-Exel, Chris Jackson, Jordan, Bird all did stepback 3's. Van-Exel actually ushered in the wide dribble.

[@reasonablenetizen]

Given his skills against his size, A.I is the most underrated

[@jeebs9]

I went to Iverson and LeBron game first game at MSG. Seeing them in person was completely different than watching them on TV. One of the things I remember about LeBron shoot around was he started shooting with his left hand and was straighting splashing them for about 5 minutes. I was blown away.

[@vantslotetse636]

Mike got the MSG fans on their knees in his debut = GOAT!!!

[@willyPVR]

MJ

[@cairosilvacairo1505]

🐐

[@hussein6173]

It's funny how Madison square garden is more famous for opponent players destroying the Knicks, rather than the Knicks performances

[@nightdonutstudio]

So Lebron's debut highlight are midrange jump shots😅😅

[@MrJadeHappy]

Makes me feel like buying whatever shoe Michael Jordan is wearing. I wanna be like Mike.

[@cmn225]

basically everybody cooks the Knicks

[@滋榎本]

All of the star players except Luka Doncic have won MVP awards. I hope Doncic can win MVP someday too.

[@GC_35]

He will

[@YoungShowgunn]

Mike Taylor should be on here too he put up 35 at the garden his rookie season

[@JFields4]

Mike Taylor Balled The Fuck Out That Game 🏀💪🏽

[@kirstencole364]

I wish the NBA would bring back the Royals and the Sonics. Yes I understand technically the Royals are now the Kings and the Sonics now the Thunder, but I think the increase would be good for the league. Could place one team in the East and the other in the West. Making 32 teams total much like the NFL

I like how most of them were against the Knicks💀💀💀

[@Relentless1979]

Dennis Rodman is the best when it comes to collect rebound...No one is close to him till now.

[@sideshowbobsaget8876]

Simply not true. Moses, Barkley, Wilt, Russell and they all did more than just rebounding

[@shawndun2119]

LeBron James is the Goat 🐐 and highlights were the most impressive

[@rapgodreloaded9259]

What about Lonzo Ball's debut vs the Knicks? it was entertaining.

[@FamilyL-gk4qh]

Legend in the NBA rookies of history every years.

[@SSJRome]

I think if the spurs actually Throw out the playbook and just give Wemby the ball wherever he wants it i think we could see a big time msg debut from him

[@coreyortiz9913]

he better just chuck up 3s and cut to the basket he can't back down Julius Randle nor Mitchell Robinson he too skinny

[@SSJRome]

@@coreyortiz9913 he’s just gonna shoot over them

[@Jeff_2x]

Surprised NBA included Luka in their thumbnail. He’s by far the most nba ready prospect since LeBron

[@morery_]

1:39 big carry

[@Soldier979]

Now its Wemby's turn

[@cairosilvacairo1505]

Now its wemby 's turn

[@jalthar.official9481]

[@bishyeahbish3758]

Oh yeah he was cold wid it from the beginning! trust me that man was stone cold focused between whistles and if ykyk! My favourite player has always been Allen Iverson, but, the best player Ever?= Michael Jordan. No arguments needed with the numbers speaking for themselves

[@chalkywhitelll8448]

Bring the Sonics back!!!!

Yes my lovely city lol. The MECCA of basketball! The most historic basketball playgrounds in the world! The most famous arena in the world! Yet our professional basketball teams can't win a championship lol.

[@NickScott86]

The NBA posted this because they expect Wemby to torch the Knicks tonight 🤣 If only James Dolan wasn't the owner, the Knicks might be a respectable franchise 🤣

[@ryuujisama2921]

Daym new york is the place for debut games hahaha

[@joshuaalmeida1145]

Am I the only person that thinks that msg is overated? And it's kinda embarrassing that ur whole arenas history is based on what opposing players do there instead of your own players and teams accomplishments. But that's just me. I'm sure I'll get some bad comments back

[@tyreepowell8367]

LeBron James 2003-04 Rookie Season Never Disappoints

[@cairosilvacairo1505]

Lebron James 2003-04 Rookie season Never Disappoinits

[@datsapaddlin]

The Knicks are the most overrated franchise maybe ever. Ain’t won nothing since gas was like 35 cents a gallon. The New York media hyped them up like they been a big deal.

[@steefvanburen7985]

They are basically the Washington Wizards from New York

NBA Rookie debut against NEW YORK KNICKS it is a coincidence???

[@juiceplanet147]

Jordan's rookie game wasn't historic 😂 it was more about Aleem & Sam Bowie. 1& 2 pick. No one thought Jordan was him. Absol utely no one.
