I was born and raised in Chicago. We got him when I was a junior in high school. I've seen him play live several times in person. We'd NEVER seen no shit like that before and I haven't to this day. It's been over 20 years since he retired and he is still ahead of this time today. 🐐

8:00 .. .is easily one of the greatest layups of all tme, and it doesn't even get mentioned among Jordan's greatest finishes. _That's_ how great he was.

Besides aging, Jordan’s constant evolution had to do with being the most watched player. Everybody watched him play, studied his moves. So he kept adding moves, and refining the old.

He wasn't just a slasher when he came into the NBA. That's one of the most frustrating myths about Michael Jordan that keeps getting perpetuated with each generation. Jordan came into the NBA with a jump shot that he kept refining over time until it evolved into the fadeaway jumper that he became known for. If you watch the video of his 63 pts against the Celtics, he scored on them in a myriad of ways. That was in his second season in the NBA. The only thing Jordan didn't have in his offensive bag early on was the three point shot. But by 89 he had added it to his game. But it was a shot he never liked taking. So he would only use it rarely.

As proof, the famous shot in college (dissected in the movie 'Air' -- the shot which sold Nike on Jordan) was an outside shot.

MJ was able to handle the ball.period. His hands are extremely large, he can catch, grab the ball for rebounding with one hand.

Young handles also looked sloppy bc MJ was in his 2nd move b4 the defender could react to his first. He was too quick and had to learn to slow down. He also couldn’t jump as high his 2nd 3 peat bc he built his body to play baseball 4 2yrs solid. Harder to switch back getting that old

It’s not just how high he jumped it’s how far away he jumped. You can’t really defend that
