How can anyone say he played nobody when at 38,39, and 40 MJ played in the league without his athleticism in 2001-2003. He had 30+, 40+, and 50+ point games. He went head to head with Kobe, T - Mac, Vince, Baron Davis, and more as a shell of himself and averaged 25+ points certain times during the season. The idiocy has to stop and needs to be addressed.

They aren't lies. MJ played small, non-versatile guards in an illegal defense era which created glorified 1 on 1 ball in a watered down expansion era. GP, Dumars, Starks, Blaylock- SMALL, NON-VERSATILE GUARDS. Who were perennially All Defense 1st team players every year in the 90's- other than Pippen who was on MJ's own damn team. Meanwhile just in the Finals Lebron faced: Bruce Bowen, Shawn Marion, Kawhi Leonard, Andre Iguadala, Draymond Green, Kevin Durant, Jimmy Butler Clyde Drexler never even made an All Defense team in his entire career. But UnCut highlights him. This is pure comedy.

He won a DPOY on a top 10 DWS (5.6) in NBA history... & I didn't mention Sidney Moncrief or Alvin Robertson, all guards 6'0 - 6'3 that'd lock up your favorite player 🤡👎🏾 Theres a reason 6/10 scoring. / assist / rebounding / blocks & 7/10 steals leaders played in Jordans era, you're nothing short of retarded 😂 its laughable watching a 16yr old whose knowledge doesn't even surpass their own lifetime try to judge an era they don't know jacksh!t about... And you bringing up illegal defense is a great example of such. Because if you did would've never implied something as retarded as it made scoring easier 😂 The rules stated the following: 1. Players weren't allowed to double-team until after stepping inside the 3pt line 2. Hard doubles must not leave a man detached from his percieved matchup unless being picked up by another player 3. Players must have a man at all times And to help your pea brain comprehend these basic scoring restrictions: 1. John Stockton dribbles up to the top of the key. 2. He drives left elbow & is doubled by 2 players: original matchup & a forward 3. His corner man runs to the left wing 3 once he sees the drive for the kickout In order to stay within league rules, a defender from the middle-right side would have to quickly run & pick up the sitting duck on the left wing whilst the helpside defender (forward) runs to the matchup on the right side that was left in order to compensate. Meaning all 5 players the majority of the time were covered & restricted. The legality of grabbing/holding during off-ball movement did not help either to space the floor And these are rules that much like traveling / carrying today were inconsistently regulated allowing defenses to thrive more than ever... & that is on top of the existing league rules that already lessened freedom of movement & invited physicality (handchecking / hipchecking ✅ / 3 sec. violation ❌ / heavy regulation on dribbling ✅ / phantom fouls calls❌)

It was also a lot harder to suceed as a perimeter player in the 80s and 90s due to the rules which is evident by how most of the best players were Centers and Power Forwards. NBA made it easy for perimeter players AFTER Jordan retired in hopes of finding more Jordan-like players because that was the more popular playstyle. Instead of discrediting shooting guards Jordan played against, they need to realize Jordan was just that much better than everyone else, hence the reason why players that played against him say he'd average 50 in todays game.

Nah not at all. Those guards could pass MJ too it is just that their usage rate was different back then. This vid is interesting and all but comparing stats to insinuate a match in overall skills is just as stupid an argument as to say that Jordan didn’t face any competition. KD has twice the usage rate as Drexler and still has comparable stats. That’s why he’s way way better and this comparison falls short. Both these guys are,in different ways, the pinnacle of what a basketball player could ever be and that’s it. Just like MJ in his time there is no debate over who the best player of this era has been and he has faced a shit ton of players that revolutionized the very game of basketball. Is Lebron better than MJ? No. But MJ ain’t better than Lebron either. We all know that Lebron would’ve taken half of MJ’s rings if there at the time just like he took half of Curry’s. Mad respect on both.

At the end of the day it doesn't even matter how many stars each one of them faced because LeBron's era is not allowed to play the same type of defense that previous eras faced. Today's stats are extremely inflated due to the lack of hand checking, the centers not being able to guard the paint leaving the rim wide open, the lack of calls for traveling, palming, double dribbling and the flopping.... good Lord don't get me started on the flopping. Point is, the argument is impossibly flawed because today's players dont play the same game and the accolades have been pretty much handed to LeBron. He hasn't had to work as hard to get farther than others. Jordan excelled at a harder version of the game, only someone with a modern day bias would argue against that.

Folks just won’t give credit where it is due and stop comparing all these different players who played in different generations/era’s. As far as MJ, nobody ever will win 9 DPOY like he did, MVP’s and all the rest of the records he set. This young generation of mines now is lazy and they don’t want to play defense as much as like they did when Kobe and other guys played. Also they don’t even call travel, carries and other mess like they used to.

Beat the trailblazers who had just come off a finals appearance and won 63 games, prime clyde and porter. second best offensive rating and third best defensive rating. Now in 2024 the celtics won the chip. They were a better regular season team but in the postseason faced weaker teams and beat slightly weaker teams in the finals. This same celtics team never faced a team that was better than them unlike the lakers who beat portland in 91 and even then james worthy and magic were much better than tatum and brown. 91 lakers are also better than the 2023 nuggets. both in the regular season and faced better teams to get to the finals. same with 22 and 21. don't even get me started on the 2020 ring.

@@mjthebasketballgoat-l6p It's a fact that 90s is the most "diluted" era because of expansion. Also it's a whole different game now, the Worthy-Magic led Lakers shoots .304% from 3 where a 3pt specialist role player now would average more 3s in a season vs the whole 91 Lakers. That's some old head biased shii you're saying. Bruh even the Rockets or Hornets would wash them. Evolution in sports is a real thing, it's like sure those super cars in the 90s are amazing but now a Honda could do that. ---- I dislike the Celtics but saying they always beat teams that's worse than them.. yeah that's called being the 1st seed. Are they supposed to... lose??? You're contradicting yourself.. Bulls are always ALWAYS favored to win every of their chip. So in your words those are invalid too??? ----- NBA teams now don't function on 2 stars carrying a team to a chip anymore, your EIGHT MAN ROTATION needa be a 10 on that day to win. Times have changed. Just think about it logically, if teams play zone and just slack off them. They really aren't gonna do too much. Old heads needs to know that your "favorite team(s)" aren't always the "best/better team" figuratively. Just turn down the biasness and go watch a random 91 Lakers game. They go soooooo under for a screen, that'll result in a 3 even on a single role player these days. Mostly just playing tempo killing offense, ISO dead ball. With their shooting teams could easily double without risking anything. Without a doubt in my mind, the 2024 Mavs would do laps around the 1991 Lakers

@@noyce. okay, This is just wrong. Number one the expansion argument is just dumb. It may have affected teams but that does not mean teams were bad. Just means they could have been better and every team was affected including the bulls. 2. 3pt shooting is cool and all but thats not all that matters. and if the game is evolving then why is the pace and scoring similar to that of the 60's and flopping is at an all time high. Maybe 3pt shooting and handles are better but that was it. in 91 after the lakers beat the blazers people favored the lakers over the bulls. Even the people who were broadcasters said that the lakers were favored to win. In 93 the suns were favored to win. in 98 the odds were stacked against the bulls. What I mean by teams weaker than the celtics is the fact that the teams the celtics faced and the mavs were way weaker than the celtics. The bulls were not way stronger than most of the teams they faced in the finals except that sonics team. Yes nba teams don't work on just two players but if you look at the supporting casts both have a good supporting cast and the celtics have a better supporting cast but one has way better stars. Both supporting casts are great and on closer level then the stars of the team where it's not close. Your talking about zones as if it is good when scoring is almost at an all time high. Zone isn't a crazy thing and sometimes was used back then. Just illegal but teams still use it from time to time. If the lakers are allowed to use handchecking most of that spacing is killed off. Meanwhile tatum and brown will struggle more on the offensive end but both james worthy and magic won't because they are used to being hand checked and physical defense. Just take away the zone and hand checking. consider experience and the teams they faced to make the finals and it goes to the lakers. Stop the recency biased.

Tatum would basically be at a villa having Brown/Jrue/White guard them while Worthy/Magic had to play both ends.

And these aren't even the usual suspects of those who could compete directly against Jordan and played against him, like Drexler, Reggie Miller, Iverson, Kobe, T-Mac, Vince, Ray Allen, Jalen Rose. This doesn't even include the big point guards and versatile wings such as Penny Hardaway, Gary Payton, Chris Mullin, the late Reggie Lewis, Alvin Robertson, Terry Porter, Jason Kidd, Vernon Maxwell, Sean Elliott, Grant Hill, Glen Rice, Bryon Russell, Derrick McKey, Cedric Ceballos, Jerome Kersey, Jamal Mashburn, and Ron Harper (until they became teammates). There's so much stock in having a "bag" when there's so much more to playing basketball than one-on-one skills and dunking. That's the only obvious part, because there's help defense, setting screens, cutting to create space, and boxing out on rebounds - stuff that doesn't show up in the stat sheet but are actually far more important than juking and jiving. Yes, basketball has evolved to a different kind of game, and overall, players are more individually skilled now. That doesn't make them better team players or competitors. Comparing over eras has become absurd. Even as much as I admire Jordan, he may not even be a greater winner than Bill Russell, or a more determined competitor than Jerry West, or a more versatile all-around player than Oscar Robertson. We have to respect the eras for what they were, and respect those attributes which translate across time - competitiveness, learning new skills, effort, professionalism.

Absolutely perfect comparison. You nailed it, my man. The 80's and 90's were easily the best era of basketball, and that's why people today are so intimidated by them. Another thing is, we should start asking why now adays there are so many people in the Le Media interested in destroying the 90's, is someone paying them?

The 3, 4 and 5 positions were beyond stacked in Jordan's era. Today, the 5's get outrebounded by point guards

Gilbert Arenas is just a ridiculous Lebron puppet who had a mediocre nba career and never really won anything period.

If they played against "NOBODIES", then why are there a lot of "NOBODIES" in the Basketball Hall of Fame? Players need to look, and learn, from a sport's history before making any comments about the past.

Joe Dumars is sorely underrated. The guy was a decent scorer that could create his own shot. A very solid defender. And he has a Finals mvp. There were many very good shooting guards in Jordan’s era.

Does Joker or Luka have a 40 inch vertical? NOPE!! And they are the two best players in the league. They laugh at 40 inch verticals.
