Blitz Sports Network PSA: Always remember, the individuals who say "Michael Jordan didn't face great competition in his era" are trying to tell you something IMPORTANT. They are trying to tell you that they didn't watch the Michael Jordan era, and there are much better things you could be doing with your time rather than listening to their takes on an era they didn't even watch. Would you go to someone for an opinion on Shakespeare if they had never seen the plays Macbeth, Hamlet, or Othello? Of course you wouldn't. Consider the source. Nobody who watched that era would trash the talent all around the league. Michael Jordan played in a great era with a great blend of fierce competitors, awe inspiring athletes, lock down defenders, knock down shooters, and ultra skilled ballers.

Jordan not only led the Olympic team over the best NBA pros he flashed on them, at the same time Bobby Knight said he was the best player he'd ever seen the hate started there
Those end stats were crazy. How many players in NBA history have in their entire career had a 45+ point game, a 5 block game, a 15 rebound game, a 6 steal game, and a 15 assist game? Maybe 10? And Jordan did it in his first 50 games! Before he started to pace himself on defense he was a beast, best ever weakside cover defender surely
How's he not the greatest of all-time? Air Jordan lives forever!
Michael Jordan the one athlete I wish would have played forever Simply the Best better than all the rest
Being from Chicago, I would hear Jim Durham speak about how lucky we were to see Michael Jordan play every night. That was very prophetic of him. It was truly an honor and privilege to see every game of his Bulls career. I was lucky enough to see him play in person a number of times!
For all the sheer numbers he put up, to also be the most efficient player ever, to arguably the best defensive guard and easily one of the best defensive players ever whilst at the same time ripping off 10 straight scoring titles, is only part of makes the forced Lebron James argument comical.
As a knicks fan in the 80s/90s I despised Mj. But I got to respect the man, he could fly. He beat the bricks off my knicks and gave me high blood pressure. Mj you the man, you are the GOAT
Its so much more fun when you can tell how hard these pros are playing. Games today just seem like everyone is going through the motions.
These videos are great for younger fans who don't really know much about Jordan. I was lucky enough to have Chicago Sports Channel and was able to see Jordan's entire career. After watching him play for the first time I was hooked and rarely missed a game during his career with Chicago. Watching young Jordan and videos like this throughout his career will show how much better he kept getting every year. He had no limits because he was never satisfied and made sure to add something every off season.
It may have been Jordans rookie game but He was already destined to be the GOAT from his college days.
And this is only his ROOKIE year!
never saw a rookie doing these things. awesome
Imagine an Era where no internet and in my country only the middle class and rich has TV but still JORDAN's name was known to everybody. THats HOW GREAT Jordan was. I remember in our school if someone has Jordan's shoes on it, damn you are the most handsome student in the campus.
Jordan is a different animal different breed on another level the goat
Isiah fouled out was a priceless picture
Jordan always said he didn't fit in so he had something to prove.... glad I was in the Era of watching jordan live!
Not one 3 pointer was taken by Jordan!! That's a man's game!!
No one has ever dominated games like MJ, beyond spectacular. The NBA wouldn’t have been this good had it not been for the GOAT!
MJ's dunk - straight down the lane over the center - at
One of the last times in this game Jordan gets the rebound on the baseline corner and he sees Lambeer on him and MJ accelerated past him like Ole Billy was in concrete 🤣
