Top 12 YouTube Videos of Michael Jordan

Like most other people, you go to YouTube to either: 1) catch up on current music; 2) watch past music; or, 3) see something really goofy. There are those moments when YouTube is great at capturing all the old memories of an era or of a person. I want to highlight some of the best YouTube videos of Michael Jordan as we celebrate his achievement of being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Video #1 - 1988 NBA Slam Dunk Contest: Michael Jordan vs Dominique Wilkins

Do you remember this one? It was 1988... Chicago... Michael and Dominique... some say Michael Jordan won because the All-Star game was in Chicago. Could it be that he was just better on that day? Dominique has had his day, but this day belonged to Michael Jordan.

Video #2 - Michael Jordan: the oldest player at 38 to score 50+ points

This was during his Washington Wizards days. This happened in 2002 in a game against Charlotte.

Video #3 - Michael Jordan vs. Larry Bird in the McDonald's commercial

I had forgotten all about this one! Anyway, it was a commercial where Michael Jordan and Larry Bird are playing their version of "horse". They were competing for a Big Mac and taking crazy shots in the process. Some of those shots were really unrealistic, but of course... this is Michael Jordan and Larry Bird doing it, so it's okay.

Video #4 - Michael Jordan vs. Himself

It's a shame that a person can be so good that he has to compete against himself.

Video #5 - Michael Jordan in Game 5 of 1997 NBA Finals vs. Utah Jazz (the "flu" game)

I remember watching this game. This was the one where he had the flu, but he played a heck of a game to say he had the flu. He may have not been himself, but he was enough of himself to help the Bulls win that crucial game.

Video #6 - Michael Jordan in Game 1 of 1992 NBA Finals vs. Portland Trailblazers

35 points in the first-half including six three-pointers... 39 points for the game. I watched it again and got chills, honestly.

Video #7 - Michael Jordan in Game 6 of 1998 NBA Finals vs. Utah Jazz

His last game as a Chicago Bull... but did he ever go out in style! 45 points total, and the clutch shot against Bryon Russell.

Video #8 - Michael Jordan's Top 10 Slam Dunks

I don't necessarily endorse the DMX song playing in the background of this one, but I'll admit, the music behind it fits very well. Focus on the dunks, not the lyrics of the song for this one.

Video #9 - Michael Jordan follows a missed free-throw with a dunk

Scottie Pippen misses a free throw, but in comes Michael Jordan like Superman cleaning up the mess as only he could.

Video #10 - Michael Jordan takes a free throw eyes closed

I've only seen him do this maybe a couple of times in his basketball career. I guess if you've shot them that much, you eventually can hit one like this.

This video is about Michael Jordan and Spike Lee (playing Marz Blackman) in a commercial advertising Nike products.
