Hands down MJ is the GOAT. I have been following the NBA since 1968. I watched the amazing Willis Reed game when he came out with the injured knee. I followed MJ at UNC. Then throughout his entire NBA career. I watched all the great ones in over the last 5 decades. For those who follow the NBA in the 80s and 90s, you witnessed that Jordan was so far superior then the next top ten great players. Those top ten also said that MJ was so far above their abilities. He more talented, competitive, dominating relentless, fearless, confident, and he destroyed the competition. He changed and impacted the game itself and globally! Always played Offense & Defense every minute on the floor. Yes, if he didn't retire in 94' and most of 95'. Then continued playing in 99' - 01' along with going directly into the NBA from High School....50,000 points is not a question. MJ being considered the GOAT is not even a debate!!!!!!

Yup. The most efficient perimeter player in history, actually averaged today's league average in 3pt percentage, and was equally potent in both ends. Few scorers are as relentless on defense as they are on the other end over 4qtrs+OT.

Right. In this era of 3s 50 points still a spectacle to behold..

He was so good at creating space, whether it be from a ridiculous pivot spin move or a shoulder to the chest bump. The man just knew what it took to create that space. Effortlessly beautiful basketball. Love and miss those days maaaan🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

The reason nobody ever talks about Jordans ball skills is because he barely dribbled the ball, he was too busy flying and scoring.

Can't believe I saw Jordan live in 93'. We all knew he was the best in the world. But didn't quite realize how timeless his GOAT status would become..

AGREED.Back then there was WGN,TNT,TBS ( may have been one other I can't recall )so many games to watch.

I agree with that commentator, despite getting 54 (missing a dunk no less), it never seemed MJ was hogging the ball. That was especially true during his championship seasons, everyone knew Bulls' offensive revolved around him, but it never seemed he was hogging the ball. Kobe didn't have that.

When the ball hit the rim as it went in, he took that personal 🤣...I joke but its probably true

Young people have no idea how good Michael Jordan was.

The NBA should put asterisks on MJ's high scoring games if it was a revenge or some extra motivation game. 🤣 "Who's gonna guard me? The rookie? Ha ha! 50." Dropped 54. "So what if I have a sore wrist. I ain't holding back esp against Shaq." Dropped 64 and grabbed 5 steals (but lost🤣). But said, "I don't care about the points. We lost. It's just wasted effort." 🤣🤣🤣 "Lace em up. It's gonna be a long night." Dropped 61. "I'm just gonna play my usual. Doesn't matter what they said they'll do." Dropped 61 against the Cry Boys Pistons. Averaged 37+ against them in the regular season. Crazy part about MJ's 60 point games? They're all at least on 55% fg. 61 pts vs Pistons - 56.4% 61 vs Hawks - 57.9% 69 vs Cavs - 62.2% 64 vs Magics - 55.1%

The hardest part about guarding Jordan. Was you couldn't guard him one on one. Because if you press up on him. He fly right by you and take it to the basket. If you give him little space. He'll hit a jumper. Impossible task to guard him. His fadeaways were perfect. You had to worry about the pump fake too. Lol

@@jtremaine23 it was his college scouting report. Eventhough he won the championship in the finals with a jumpshot vs the Hoyas, it wasn't his most effective part of his game. Phil said he made that weakness into his strength. He's still the king of midrange til this day and age. As KD have said, he was a pure shooter. Eventhough he's one of the greatest finisher and arguably the greatest off-hand finisher, his shooting was still better known. He sort of patented the fadeaway in the latter part of his career. Less athletic but still elevates-no, -levitates when he took his jumpshots esp while doing fades. Nobody could elevate like MJ in their jumpshots. And he did that 20x a game while being defended. Who in their right mind would do jumpshots with al least 80+% of their max vert for at least 20x a game?! 😆 Saw a pic of him shooting while Kobe's head was on his knee level. Defenders weren't lying when they said "saw the bottom of them Nikes!"🤣🤣🤣
