The 12s are my all time favorite. Not only for the look, also because the sole is very stiff and supportive for playing basketball.

I can watch this all day, every day. I feel blessed to have seen Michael Jordan play through his entire collegiate and professional career. He is, without a doubt, the best basketball player EVER. Period.

Michael Jordan the greatest basketball player of all time

The REAL GOAT period.

That game at Seattle was an early Sunday afternoon NBA on NBC game. To go along with your points I believe Mike was out to show the world that Gary Payton couldn’t guard him after that finals matchup and proceeded to drop 45 on his head!

The fadeaway Mike year.Where he hardly dunked the ball and rarely went inside.When asked he mentioned that players didn't give him the inside.I remember Johnny "Red" Kerr saying "we haven't seen one of those in a while" after he had a baseline slam at home against the Clippers.Luckily the next year he was back to Air Jordan with lots more inside moves and dunks.

The funny thing is that's how he plays

jordan had much bigger hands as any nba player ! full package

Lotta replays of da Same plays. But I enjoyed it

It was so exciting to watch michael jordan play I can't say that for too many players. These days, not even Lebron is exciting to watch.

The White/Red 12 what I like calling them is the Japan 12(look at their flag), my #1 favorite colorway of the 12 it's not even close, it's just the way the red sticks out from the white along with the hints of black. Laughing till this day, people were jumping all over the Space Jam 11 in 2009, knowing they will keep releasing 11's over and over and over and over. IMO, the Japan 12 look far better than the Space Jam 11. I prefer white sneakers over black ones, why? Because you can get the same look with any black sneaker.

Jordan brand have us waiting too long like just give us the damn Cherries already like it’s been almost 12 years since the last release and we still don’t have them back something tells me we they ain’t gon be back until the 30th Anniversary of the 12s which ain’t until 2026 or 27 SMDH

See Michael Jordan Wearing The Air Jordan 12: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fKaHrK1rfanRY7w.html Sonics head coach George Karl criticized Jordan for not driving to the rim and shooting more jumpers to preserve his body. Of course in MJ fashion he took it personally. He scored 45 points (including a buzzer beating half court shot). Video below: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqmm26moe7u6XbQ.htmlsi=t2i6b6Sxh4ynUwpL Playoff and flugames are the best 12 but the french blue 12 and these white & red 12's are not far behind as well as the gym red XII's.

Best Mid Range shooter in NBA history.

Got the W on the Shock Drop 😎

who here after the jordan 12 cherry release this year?

In my opinion, Taxi and Red&white should be the best colorway. Playoffs is not especially when you play on this shoes, the question is the from color is white. White color shoul be put on the top deeper color on the deep, that would be nice looking key.

Idk what anyone say MJ would have been affective in any era! Dude was a scoring machine; a beast in defense and not to mention the guy okay hard as fuk

Tf is wrong with Jordan brand. Will these ever release in OG fashion?! And is there a shortage on the True red color?!!

so beautiful...to watch

They don't do the ball fake because they can't do it like MJ

The only reason this generation thinks that LeBron is the 🐐 is bc they didn't witness Jordan in real-time. Anyone over 35 that thinks Jordan isn't the best ever can't be trusted. Name one time that Jordan wasn't the best player on the floor during the finals?...I'll wait... LeBron wasn't even the best player on his team multiple times and completely disappeared all together in the 2011 "Superteam" Heat vs Mavs finals
