Let's do a scottie pippen vs the top 75 next😂
Dude. You make this boring. And, I love this type of shit
Dude. I like you. But, you suck.
Wow. New perspective. I bet klutch will pay people to comment “his team depends on him desperately because his the goat” But then again, nobody really take klutch seriously
Jordan has no weaknesses in his game...not one. lebron not even better then Kobe. if we going to compare anyone to mj it's Kobe..not bron
Larry Bird was the man
Michael Ray Richardson is one of the most talented players to ever play the game. That night he played out of his mind. And their head coach had them prepared to win. He out coached Cunningham
Julius Erving scored 12 points in Game 5 and passed up a number of shots that he would usually take. Okoren was a good defender but 12 points. Go back and look at the whole game. He grabbed 19 rebounds that day. It's almost like he became a role player that day.
1 and 2 against McAdoo...its just fun to say😂
You said the Lakers lost by 12.8 PPG, that’s False! It was 9.8 PPG.
Negative. All things considered (Walton’s fragility, etc.) this was a special intended moment in time. Never meant to be “built to last.” Grateful Dead reference and Big Red’s own words.
Michael is the god of basketball Michael is so good he can beat every basketball player to ever plat Michael can beat every basketball player at any skill level Michael is so good he can every basketball player in a 1 on 1 Jordan can easily beat every basketball player at any size or weight Jordan can beat every basketball player in 1 on 1 Michael can beat every euroleague basketball player in a 1 on 1 Michael can beat every street ball legend in a 1 on 1 Michael is so dominant he can easily beat all of wilt chamberlain records if he wanted to In fact michael is so dominant and so impossible to stop, he would destroy shaq in a 1 on 1.

i am so tired of people comparing Lebron or Kobe. Michael is the GOAT period. Those dudes have lost in the finals. Jordan has not. His stats are bar none
Against Payton the glove know for his defense and steals MJ averaged 2.2 steals compared to Gary's 1.7
MJ got straight DOMMED by Bird YO DIGGITY
This is not a debate. MJ is the GOAT handsdown. Inserting Lebron, as great as he is, into the GOAT discusion is laughable.
After the 63pt onslaught loss in the playoffs against the Celtics brought out the league leading scorer 10x champion. MJ ❤4ever the GOAT periodt
This is NOT a debate!! Lebron is NOT even top 5
WOWWW TOP 50 is hard enough.TOP 100 that’s crazy.One of the better lists I have seen.I would have a few changes with numbers 20-40 and I have SHAQ and Duncan ahead of Kobe
This video shows the difference between wanting to win and wanting to be great for greatness’ sake. Lebron wants to be the system on every team he’s on. In a Lebron-led offense, the entire offense goes through him. Because he can’t stand the Westbrooks, Hardens, Doncic, and Jokics of the world getting more points and triple doubles than him. Unlike Lebron, Jordan was able to sacrifice potentially getting more triple doubles than Oscar Robertson and Magic Johnson so that the Bulls could run their triangle offense. He also put in the effort on defense, night in and night out. Lebron only cares about chasedown blocks but can’t be bothered to move laterally on defense, preferring to play safety and gamble in the passing lanes. By doing whatever it takes to win and sacrificing, MJ became great. By trying to become great, Lebron won less. Ironic but true.
The referees used to tell the younger referees that if Jordan goes to the hole and if there's a crowd there then just blow the whistle. That's what the refs are programmed to do.” - Tim Donaghy. It's easy to be one of the greatest, when you have the greatest sixth man ever the referees.
Kobe is all of real mba fanes number two LeBron's not even in the top 75,50 I wouldn't put him there because his game sucks so bad people need to quit talking about LeBron like he's something he's not
Definitely gunna create an empire of people to dedicate their KZread channels for other goats like Wilt Bill Kareem bird doc west etc…. To destroy this pathetic matrix media constantly feeds the sheep of red pill blue bill MJ or Lebron only goat options for the debate
👍absolutely awesome fact driven narrative. MJ ❤4ever the GOAT periodt
I remember everything since ive seen his entire iconic career from start to finish being a Chitown citizen makes it even better knowing he belonged to us . MJ ❤4ever the GOAT periodt
Bob pettit is a top twenty guy alltime
SIR, THAT'S A LOT OF RESEARCH........THIS IS AWESOME......
Simply put the Bullets/Wizards havent won a dang thing sine the Elvin Hayes played with them. The test of time has proven that he was a winner! thank you Big E.
Look at it like this who did Jordan stop from getting a ring ? Who’d did labron stop from getting a ring?
You know you’re the GOAT when 29 points in the Finals isn’t too impressive. 35 points isn’t nothing special lol GTFOH
WILT is the G.O.A.T.
Bird was greatness personified.
I don't understand why these videos of individual comparison of a team sport have any relevance. I'm so grateful I grew up in the era that didn't have social media. It allowed me to appreciate the opportunity to witness all of the great players and teams without any concerns about who was the greatest of all time. MJ is just like all of the great players that came before him. They got their butts kicked until they reached that point of time for them to experience winning championships. From individual perspectives the only two players that went into the NBA and instantly became focal points for their teams success of making it to the finals and winning as a rookie were Magic and Bird. Of course we know Magic not only won the championship but also Finals MVP. Larry Bird actually won rookie of the year that season over Magic. I don't appreciate the GOAT discussion or the constant videos of MJ and LeBron being the greatest of all time. Especially when people are disrespecting all of the great players and most of all the great teams that paved the way for MJ to even have an opportunity to showcase his talents. The same goes for LeBron. Here's a point from history that encouraged my prior comments. Had the ABA maintained it's league, where would the NBA be today. Prior to the merge between the ABA and the NBA ticket sales were very low for the NBA. People were more interested in watching the ABA because of Dr.J The increased notoriety of the ABA and the public's desire to witness such high flying dunks forced the NBA into the merge. I'm sure the lack of financial capabilities and television contracts or connections by the ABA played just as much a role in the merge also. That's why it's so disappointing to me when I see these GOAT debates because many great players had their personal stamp on this game in numerous ways. Dr.J is a very significant reason why the merge happened and the NBA was transitioning into something great. Magic and Bird came along and enhanced that. Then MJ came along and took it to higher heights than ever before. Then LeBron comes along and exceeds all expectations and continues what MJ had already improved. The torch continues to be passed so who f.....g cares about who is the GOAT
Great video. I just subscribed 👌🏾 😎
Hold up hold up! When u say against each other or vs each other while guarding each other. meaning mj wasn’t guarding those big players!!!! When u see those records n those numbers they r inflated and misrepresented bcuz what u r not saying is that refs swallowed those whistles…facts Mj could not absolutely not guard 3-5 position in bball.
Either way ya look at it . Mj is the greatest 2 way guard ever . The basketball goat . Chill out little fella .
I like how basketball universe is balanced with the video even though most of the time Jordan individually dominated but people still competed against him hard and shown that they can win against the goat 🐐 alot of basketball ball IQ in this vid and its balanced
Its really easy the greatest players with good teams got the best of him early and late in his career which is how it goes.
Simply, the best ever!
WTF is this Pippen jock sniffing advert. Pip ppg average was what barely 17 on a goood day now go enjoy reality buddy. Jordan gave Pip a hall of fame career, understand that sitting on the sofa reading gossip magazines, Lol. If Pip did not like the Championships we would not have heard about it DECADES later. NEVER once was there ever a mention of a unhappy Pip or asking to be traded bc we aint stupid and neither was Pippen. When Pip had the moment to step up he bitched out bc Phil called the play for TK and not him, after his LeBron like meltdown no teammate respected him...psst he still didnt ask for a trade. MJ cameback and they ran another 3 championships and wdyk Pippen still never complaained to anyones god about being unhappy. FP.
The debate is manufactured by media that can't create enough hype because they lack. . . .well. . . .creativity. Proof is that how can he face a bunch of MVPs when he IS the MVP? How can he face a top team when they ARE the top team? Media are clowns.
dude left out the 2013 heat on that "all time great team list" on purpose lmao
Excellent point on 6:55 ! People often don't realize or choose to ignore how many games that Pip, Rodman, Harper, Kukoc etc missed in the Bulls 2nd threepeat with only MJ not missing a single game, and yet they still dominated. As to where I'd rank the 97 Bulls, no lower than 3rd, maybe even equal 2nd with the 86 Celtics.
GREAT video! If you can, pls make a post season version......MJ vs Top 75 in the Post Season
Saying Philadelphia kept him at bay is hilarious considering the Bulls blew out Philadelphia 3 times and in all 3 games Jordan sat out the entire 4th Quarter of games that he was having a good game. Sounds like they really kept him in check by not putting up a fight. Also while Jordan sat out those blowout games AI played all 12 minutes in the 4th quarter of games he knew he wasn't going to win. Big difference.
Your inner jordan fanatic came out heavy
@@gangstagummybear3432 Saying facts makes me a fanatic. Your lack of logic is interesting.
@@gesuscopley8438 From my research here is what we have: November 2, 1996 @ bulls L PHIL 86 CHI 115, Jordan played more minutes than Iverson December 21, 1996 home L PHIL 105 CHI 111, Both Iverson and Jordan played nearly the whole game, got outscored by Iverson March 12, 1997 home L PHIL 104 CHI 108, Jordan played more minutes than AI, got outscored by Iverson April 7, 1997 @ CHI L PHIL 102 CHI 128, Jordan didnt play long, but Iverson dropped 44 points, his team simply didnt show up that game November 1, 1997 @ CHI L PHI 74 CHI 94, Jordan didnt play as long January 15, 1998 HOME W PHI 106 CHI 96, Iverson played slightly more minutes than Jordan April 17, 1998 HOME L PHI 80 CHI 87, Iverson played more minutes As far as the Bulls era, they played each other 7 times, only like 2 of these did Iverson play alot more minutes than Jordan, and only 3 of these 7 games were blowouts, thanks alot Triangle offense. What facts?
@@gangstagummybear3432 you posted two responses and neither one of them have anything to do with what I said. If you hate Jordan that's cool I'm not trying to change your mind but the way you just pointed out those games shows me that you are favoring Iverson in order to try and make Jordan look bad. You're trying to make it seem like they played equal minutes when they didn't. AI 276 and MJ 242 big difference. MJ was more productive than AI plain and simple for anyone other than you to see.
@@gesuscopley8438 thanks to the triangle offense a better support system and being 6'6 sure he was more productive
Great narrative. I dont think the 2 non playoff seasons should disqualify from the GOAT bebate but does make him not the GOAT over MJ who made playoffs every year with Bulls with some crappy teams and no other All Star help. MJ ❤4ever the GOAT periodt
That has nothing to do with who is better tho stats are the only way to say who is better at the game and lbj are better
imagine how those numbers would look if he didn't come back from his second retirement
I did enjoy the comparisons but the team vs team records are irrelevant. You can’t compare 5 hall of fame Celtics against MJ by himself and give it a win for Bird. It was never just Larry. That’s absurd. Also Prime Kobe and Shaq against MJ’s Wizards? We really going to take the those wizards losses as MJ losses? Aside from that it was fun to see what the top 75 players did against each others teams while playing against each other.
