Did you know Michael Jordan says there is one basketball player that's better than him? When Michael was growing up he said that he never felt like he could be the best player in the world, there was one player that always beat him one-on-one and you'll never believe who it is. Michael Jordan's father said Michael's older brother Larry had better skills and talent than Michael did, his older brother was so good that Jordan's father would spend all his time working with Larry and completely ignored Michael. When Michael was cut from his high school basketball team it was because of his older brother Larry who made the team because of his incredible 44-inch vertical. Jordan was jealous of the attention his brother Larry got from their father and he says that because of his brother, he has the competitive drive that made him a successful player. Michael was obsessed with being better than his brother and tried to copy all of his moves so he could become better than him. Lucky for Michael, Larry Jordan only grew up to be 5 feet 8 inches tall but he did make the NBA as an executive and is responsible for drafting NBA Star LaMelo Ball.

It wasn't until I was an adult that I actually found the clips online of Larry scrimmaging against Jordan at the Bulls' training facility....let me just say that MJ was not lying. That little man could FLY!! Jordan definitely learned a lot from his older brother. It's truly a spectacular story if you actually think about it. We never got to see Larry Jordan on the NBA, but the basketball world owes a significant debt to Larry.

And this is why when it comes to basketball,there will never be nobody better than Jordan. If you actually watched him play in the 80s and 90s you would know how much of a killer instinct he had to dominate and win always which led him to becoming a beast on the court and demolishing all the talented players that played in the 90s especially.the Pistons would beat him down to the ground but he never gave up. He became stronger physically and mentally and became the greatest player ever to play the game of basketball.

Jordan's wife, the starting cener Luc Longley and the starting pount guard, Ron Harper, were cut out completely from the Bulls story, too. Harper onlyshowed up to throw Lenny Wilkens under the bus for having Ehlo on Jordan. His role on the Bulls was cit out completely.

But Michael always acknowledged his brother. That’s why he’s 23, because Larry’s number is 45 and Mike said that he’s only half as good as his brother.

When your young you need something to take over. Alot of great athletes never reach their full potential because they've always been the best athlete in their youth until they reach college or the pros and the level out at that point because they can't understand how to reach down and do better. Jordan was designed to be the greatest as a child. He had an older brother to look up to

That’s why Michael Jordan is the greatest. It wasn’t just hard work ,like Kobe Bryant put in the work to be a great player, but that fury and competitive nature and the drive to outdo anyone came from what happened to him as a child and you can’t teach that 😈 and that’s why nobody has ever been or will ever be better than Michael Jordan💯🔥🔥🔥🔥

It happens all of the time in families. Maybe there was a recessive trait for tall height in their family that Jordan received and his brother did not. In my own family, my father is 5'8, but his baby brother grew to be 6'5. They both look just like their father too. It does happen.
