My Legendary Childhood GOAT Michael Jordan

The goat
This was the time when NBA was actually flop free
To this day the shot Jordan made after the whistle in the 4th quarter from the corner of the free throw line with his back fully turned from the basket and Marv Albert exclaiming “Oh! It went in!” has been engrained on my mind since I was a kid
Body-wise, all players back then are lean.
Shaq physical dominance really brought body builders into the game.
Love the legend on and off the court since young 🐐
Essentially, it was the start of their dynasty. Simply put Michael Jordan is definitely one of the greatest to ever do it.
90's game was supposed to be more physical?
