I can't get tired of this Air Jordan's smooth crossover move against Dan Majerle.

I videotaped it from TV and am wondering if I could find like this move on internet?

Movie of Jordan crossover

thanks

The crossover is OK. Majerle was obviously recovering from being out of position, for he is completely off-balance. His defensive footwork was horrendous. Jordan attacked the defender perfectly.

If Jordan were in college, high school, at the local YMCA, or in the NBA with a name other than "Michael Jordan", he would have been whistled for a traveling violation.

The man was great, maybe the best ever, but I am surprised that particular sequence is your favorite Jordan move.

spacefreak,

I didn't ask you for your analysis on this specific move of Jordan and the footwork of Majerle's. Plus, it's nowhere near traveling violation. It was perfectly drive with 2 steps. Look carefully.

I was saying that I admire him for dribbling crossover this very low .that's all.

oh man I loved watching him work the magic. Jordan, Reggie White, and Barry Sanders. All the great ones are gone in one form or another. What's left is childish behaviour and gang-bang punks.

My favorite move is when he retired, went to minor league baseball and sucked, then went back to basketball for a cup of coffee, did good, retired, returned to basketball and decided to play on a suck team, then retired.

So true. You forgot the golf wannabe era.

I liked the part where he got all that flak for gambling.

Best move ever:

When he was playing the Knicks back in early 90s, being guarded by John Starks and trapped by Charles Oakley, spun around him at the baseline and dunked on Patrick Ewing..... it was named the TOP OF 100 DUNKS few years back by the NBA.

Pat was the best center at that era.

Michael Jordan has always played golf as a hobby.
