Thinking Basketball describe the specialty of MJ by as I describe putting 99th percentile of both athleticism and Body control.

Half of those clips were travels

His touch was phenomenal around the rim too. It wasn’t just athleticism

Incredible how the defenders had absolutely no chance of blocking his shot, even when so many were physically right in front of him, often even touching him, at some point.

And the biggest factor of it all… he worked his ass off to be that great. Sure he’d go play a game of golf then come and drop 45 lmaoo but he was the first in the gym and the last one out. Genetics+Hardwork= God tier 😭😭🙏🏾

90% of the plays were hanging in the air shots, not crazy dunks over players. He could have another 20 minutes of those, but no other player can have close to 2 minutes of finesse like we just watched.

I wish they would play these videos in actual speed so I could see his athleticism as it really was

Jordan was the master of getting away of up and down calls. The way he is able to release the ball so late makes him appear as if he’s jumping an extra 2ft with how long it takes.

Talk about touch…

Man the year I got into the NBA it was 1991

I got seriously spoiled to start my love of basketball

Magic, MJ, AI, Shaq, Curry. They’re the most exciting players to watch imo. I’ll never get tired of watching their highlights.

His hang time always amazes me. I mean all of it does: his ability to find the angle, his dexterity and athleticism, his patience and ball iq. He was the real fucking deal man. I wish I could go back and watch him do it all over again.

MJ doing goat stuffs. Watching his game still feels your watching todays game. Still think no one can hang with him in the air.

All the pump fakes and pass fakes are are cool……but those shorts are wayy cooler
