NBA legends tell a story of the game where Michael Jordan EARNED his stripes in the NBA!🔥 #shorts

From the first day in practice, my mentality was whoever is a team leader on that team, I’m going after him. And I’m not going to do it with my voice because I had no voice. I had no I had no no status. I have to do it with the way that I play. I felt like I earned my stripes in the third game. Milwaukee has always been a nemesis for Chicago. Every time we played them, they beat us. They had Sydney Monreef who was the reigning defensive player of the year. They had a tremendous defensive team. I kind of thought I knew his potential because I had played against the best players in the NBA so far, the Magics and the Birds and the Dr. J and Kareem. Some great players. And all of a sudden, this rookie comes into the NBA. I watched the way he moved on the court and his instincts. I’m like, “Wow, that’s going to be scary.” we were losing going into the fourth quarter before guys will get down on themselves and then just kind of give up, you know, okay, we just chalk this up. We we look for the next game and I’m saying, well, game’s not over with. And Kevin Locker sensed that in me and he just started feeding me the ball and I just started going. Every time we went to trap him, he would split, go down the lane, make a really difficult shot. He was so explosive. I don’t think it’s anybody that could defend Michael. We come back and we win the game. From that point on, everybody on that team felt like this young kid is not going to let us lose. Everybody on that Bull team within a twoe period knew he was the best player we had.
