Some say the 5 is the last of when Jordan was really jumpin out the gym dunkin on cats.

I disagree, but it’s been said.

I guess those people didn't see him destroy Ewing with the baseline dunk while wearing the 6.

 

[headdetective]

To play devils advocate, he rocked 5’s that season

 

[rainking]

That doesn't even make any sense LOL
It's either the 5 or not if some dumbass is using it as a timeframe reference. Besides, he opened the 91-92 season in the 6 and flying over the Sixers for that leaning baseline dunk. Plenty of highlights of him getting up in the 7s here, too:

MJ's mid-range game was so good.

Today's NBA loves the 3 too much.

Once he perfected the fade away it was a wrap

He really ain’t have to dunk on cats no more after that it was so God level

Who said this? Lol

Who said this? Lol

Probably some dummies on the internet listening to other dummies on the internet. Anyways, he was in ultimate killer mode in 1993. He wore the 7 and 8.

No doubt. Yeah I guess fools will say anything.

 

[headdetective]

It’s somewhere in one of these threads. Maybe even this one.

I remember reading it and cats blew up the same way lol

I would say the 7-8 is where he began to really REALLY up his mid-range game. By the time of the 72 win comeback sesson, it was his bread and butter. Jordan’s fadeaway was just as unguardable as Kareem’s sky hook.

Yeah. I’m not ever gonna say that second threepeat Mike was as physically explosive as 1987 Mike, but that’s natural. And he could still do it when he wanted to. See the breakaway reverse double-clutch dunk against Miami while wearing the Concords. I remember him doing that same dunk maybe even slightly better vs. Atlanta during the ‘91 season in the white/infrared 6, but the one he put down on the Heat was no joke.
He just found a way to score his 32 ppg without blitzing the rim at all times. A lot easier on the body long-term lol

Tried to post the gif of a dunk he did in the 1996 Finals. He rarely did it, but he could still get up there.

 

[headdetective]

Must be talkin about the dunk in Seattle

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

In 1993 while wearing the 8s he was still more athletic than 99.99999% of NBA players who ever played.
