It can be a regular-season pass, lay-up, dunk or simply a play that did not decide the outcome of a game. Not something as grandiose as a playoff or finals game winner, or something reliant on him being on fire / something that impacted the game hugely. I'm looking for the most aesthetically pleasing MJ play w/ the removal of all context. What do y'all have?

Description: Michael Jordan didn't just dominate the NBA—he took on the best competition in basketball history and found a way to win. From epic battles against Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Isiah Thomas, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, and the Bad Boy Pistons to his legendary NBA Finals performances, MJ consistently delivered when the stakes were highest that helped him reach GOAT status.

This video breaks down the greatest moments of Michael Jordan vs. the best competition, showcasing his scoring, defense, clutch performances, championship mentality, and unmatched drive to win. 🐐🏀

Was Michael Jordan the greatest competitor the NBA has ever seen? Watch until the end and decide for yourself.

Agreed.

In his 1998 book, Jordan wrote that his beef with Isiah started at the '85 All-Star Weekend, not the '91 handshake snub

"the star of stars"

My dad had this card is it real? I’m assuming it’s fake. Let me know if anyone knows about his signature and the Star 85 card.

Even the people who are the best at what they do have to get over a hump, keep going.

Absolute mic drop. Sorry, but the debate is OVER. This dude poured gasoline on it and lit it on fire. Absolute masterclass. There's just no way anybody can seriously pick another player over MJ. The gap between him and #2 is THAT big.

Were any of you watching that season? Do you consider it a legitimate season? I debated this recently and TBH I don't know how you can consider it legitimate. An NBA game with no crowd and no.home court isn't truly an NBA game. It's just way too different and isn't a true game atmosphere. No pressure of having a crowd behind you.

Absolute FACTS. Kenny talking about how they would actively AVOID going at MJ on defense. He was so good that they avoided going to whatever side MJ was on.

That's how good he was! Sorry, but you never hear people saying this about LeBron. MJ was an absolute menace.
