Michael Jordan's layups were insane

[get these nets]

The air time/defy gravity layup was made famous by Dr. J.



And the same way we used to run out and copy moves we just saw, the hoopers who were kids then were trying it the very next day. Even with their short wing spans and little hands.

I love watching these just to see the opposing benchs reaction to the shyt he was doing.

 

[Rob's al Ghul]

Yeah. I mean, his sig move in this game (and the sequels) was the double clutch reverse layup. Almost everyone else's was some crazy dunk.

I challenge anyone fine a better backcourt layup package then prime jordan and drose

They’ll throw Kyrie in the argument, but I definitely say it was those two. I might even throw DWade in the mix before Kyrie.

@ 4:34 of the video.... is why the Bulls were so dominant. Elite team defense to a selfless transition basket. Always one of my favorite highlights from that era.

 

[Chrishaune]

I won't even say that. It was ahead of any time.

Jordan would dominate today and still make a lot of current players look like junior varsity.

You just have to give it up when you see the greatest of all time.

There's a reason Kobe tried to emulate everything he did.

Coordination, hang time, spatial awareness, touch around the basket

MJ looked good in the era of Honda Civics.
