Just cause you have a forty Inch vertical. does not make you better than any old school player.Jordan was just better than all of them and better than all the New guys as well ,he's an anomaly for any generation. Until next generation is busting threes Point shots is the main focus instead of a vertical.Then what are you gonna say?
Athleticism and Skills are two different things…. Several players can out jump Joki’c and Luka but it’s very few impact the game…. Athleticism don’t make you a better player…. Skill’s level elevates your game and team…. Magic and Bird in they era… Jordan had both athleticism and skills that made him a BEAST 💯
Gotta be kidding !?? Defense of the 80'&90' s TEAM players versus the offensive and the last 15,10 till now definitely wouldn't want none of that smoke back then. Something else is that the rules Changed towards Jordan. defensive players were more physical players than today's rules allowed.man!! Those were the days.
Thank Gil for confirming Jordan will always be the GOAT. BUT…Players did have the skills back then. Jordan was smart enough to pull from all of their tool bags…Ice Man, Dr. J, Wilt, Larry, Magic and others. He clearly tells people this.
Jordon's movements were deft, poetry in motion. Many Bulls Championship games were hard fought and won in the clutch; like 4th quarter, some at the buzzer when MJ went God mode. Please speak in hushed tones and reverence when referring to the cats who transformed the game.
Old clips from his games cant paint the picture, you had to be alive in the moment when the Bulls are trailing and left for dead, then be privileged enough to watch in real-time as the GOAT changed gears, literally making stuff up in the clutch, no one knew what he was gonna do next when the game was on the line and his adrenaline and will to win kicks in. If like me, you were alive to see the legend in real-time, please hit the thumbs up and school this new generation.
Arenas Got it Twisted. In Jordan’s Era( Late 80’s-90’s ), just about EVERY Team, had an Athletic Player, like Michael Jordan. The Problem was, That Player could not Shoot, Dribble or Defend, on a High-Level. Michael Jordan was just More Complete. But, Trust Me, there were Some Players in The League, that were both Athletic as Michael Jordan, but just a little less Skilled. Shawn Kemp, Dominique Wilkins, Darrell “ Dr. Dunkenstein “ Griffith, Richard Dumas, Clyde Drexler, and others, Competed Against Jordan, but were Outmatched, as far as Skill and “ Will “ to Win.
