how did young Mike get to the basket with such ease?

If you watched the games you’d see that wasn’t and didn’t happen. Jordan wasn’t an elite shooter on the level of curry. They wanted him to come down that lane so they could try to murder that nikka. Jordan Rules anyone?

That is why he developed the turn around. So he wouldn’t have to keep running in the lane and taking fists to the stomach.

It’s amazing to me how internet dudes seemingly know better than all the former players, coaches, commentators and advanced stats
how often were defenders in position to do this¿

like they just all left mj's teammates wide open¿

with the bigs parked in the paint waiting¿

:mjgrin:

mj said out his own mouth he wouldn't have had the career he did facing the zone though

the league got lucky

bro started hooping late & his background had him mentally unstable

the.worm with a good family upbringing & a1 skill development would have been scary

:picard:





:scust:freight.train.bron.bron*

Rodman was one of them dirt strong type niccaz.He's ultra athletic.Another dude like that was Buck Williams..To a lesser extent, Otis Thorpe.

They'll out run you, out jump you, overpower you, never get tired etc..etc...They're like race horses.In the simplest/rawest form "The best athletes"

But them niccaz played the background like Tito & Marlon Jackson for a reason.Mike was Mike.He could do it all.He was Merged/Professor Hulk.

exactly

if dennis had the polish put on his game it's a complete different story

mj had the athleticism but also a lifetime of practice put into hoops

One of the most explosive athletes to ever play the game and great fundamentals and technique. Didn't really waste time making his move, could take off as soon as he got near the paint, and he was arguably the best in the game in the triple threat position.



He's just blowing by these guys and hanging in the air longer than them on a lot of these drives, but his jab steps and hesitations got him as many points as his athleticism did.



Only settled for 3 jump shots of his 61 pts :wow:

Most of his makes were penetrate and pull ups. His mid-range game was impeccable :banderas:
Plus he got all those calls in the Garden as a second year player.:mindblown:

It's a bunch of thoroughbred/ultra athletic niccaz out there.They're just not ultra competitive or have the drive to be the best.

The creator has to preordain you with that kind of vision.Jordan's mind was just wired to be more expansive when it came to the

game of basketball.That's where it starts.Most can't measure up to the profoundness of his mind.That's why I say he was a natural.

He was the perfect basketball player.That was his calling in life.Once he manifested mind to body, it was a work of art.It was beautiful nh.

We'll probably never see anything like that again in our lifetime.

Don't know what that has to do with anything but ok.

Matter what era you usually can't guard NBA players one on one:manny:
you brought up scam.gawd & players who play slow

but nikkas been getting slow.buckets since the start

:manny:

quickness & speed aren't necessities

They ain’t play zone in the 80’s :troll:


Jordan was the college zone buster tho. So that cuts out any of that bullshyt argument there. Bron does not have Jordan's bball Iq nor pedigree. Let alone jordan's actualized skill at destroying zone defense.

I can tell you nikkaz don't know bball and never saw Jordan play.

You nikkaz are the same about rap too. You never saw the best but continue to talk bullshyt. While the real who saw the shyt for real in rap and basketball will expose you.


Art barr


You ain't seen or heard more high quality rap than me.
Same as bball, too.

Get ya game footage steez up.
