Best young MJ story is when he beat NBA All Stars 8 games in a row while he was in USA team as a college and never played a single NBA game.

Jordan was my guy. I could care less about the city of Chicago. It was MJ and the pieces they added around him. One player in particular that I wanted to watch as much a Mike was Tony Kuco. Tony could flat out play.

Interesting that both players had a similar turn around J from the elbow. Worthy would put it in the lane as well, and would use his speed to quickly power dribble and turn for the shot over the defender. MJ would fade a bit more on his, like a real cool cat. I always wonder if the worked on it together in practice and who they were emulating from the 70s era players.

MJ was NOT better than James Worthy in college, not in 1982, anyway. James Worthy was like a man among boys.
