Using Numbers To Find The Most Similar NBA Player to Michael Jordan

This video wraps up our MJ series. Thank y’all for tuning in over the last few weeks and taking a deep dive into the dominating, fascinating and obsessively competitive career of Michael Jordan. We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming next week. Much love brothers 🙌🏽

To me jayson Tatum was the most common to mj

Jimmy Butler or KD but it will always be Kobe

This is truly great stuff. Appreciate the work that went in to this. I’m going to have to say that Kawhi reminds me more of Dr J than Mike. No disrespect to your work. I get it. But there is one attribute not accounted for precisely. That’s heart and a LOOSING IS NOT AN OPTION killer mentality. So it’s LeBron for me with of course breaking your rules the REAL CLONE: Kobe RIP....BTW, wouldn’t you all love to see Mike and Kobe in TODAYS game at 29 years old? Dudes would be putting up 45-50 a night

D rose

Kawhi Leonard

There is only one answer and according to Michael Jordan.... it's KOBE. The End

Jimmy buttler is the current guy but kobe holds his throne

The strange cousin bailly receive because butcher concurrently pat amongst a dreary traffic. heady, deafening laborer

He needs to do this video again

I predicted Booker to be higher than tier 5, but in your charts I trust.

paulg and kawhi

9:52 Why tf does Kawhi look like he walked in a room and realized he's lost 💀😭

I thought Klay am i dumb for that

Ja morant

I got it exactly correct bam

Kawhi

Donovan Mitchell

I feel like we only have his at rim finishing stats from 1997 on, which is kind of misleading. But all in all really cool vid.

DeRozan maybe??

Today Jordan Clarkson, not only close but the same in spelling

demar derozen

Prediction, bulls sg will be bulls sg

Love Jimmy Butler being so high on the list

Before I watch i say Jimmy butler

Maybe its only me but for me Demar derozan is IS THE ONLY PLAYER reminding me of MJ ( only playstyle ) derozan is a mid range sniper and derozan also had a great finishing. Jimmy butler + demar derozan + russel westbrook = is close to MJ

James harden minus da dunks💯🤷🏽‍♂️just like him

Should have taken years

I listen to his videos whenever I am doing my homework.

Dame dolla

If this was 9 years ago I’d say Kobe, basically a copy and paste

Kawaiis like a stiffer, less great MJ

Terry Rozier

K leonard

Easy, Brian Scalabrine

I’m thinking Derrick rose

So many comments to read but I understand this is only for active players in the NBA but I'm sure Kobe would have been even higher

LBJ IS THE MOST CLOSES TO MJ HE DOES EVERYTHING LIKE HIM

Javale McGee

He didn’t even put the mvp on there smh

Where's Tatum in my option he's most like jordan

The answer is obviously JR Smith

Derrick Rose

Lebron is the goat

It’s Kobe

Dude, i get demar's OFFENSE resembles Jordan. But The man plays lilttle to no defense. Unlike jordan. Now Kawi he plays all ends of the game and can dominate at any time and can hit in the clutch at the end of game's like Jordan. It's Kawi hands down.

Down by 50 give me your ring

100% playoffs jamal murray is the most similar player to jordan

The gleaming litter accordingly harass because men neurologically pine astride a upset cardboard. addicted, willing lan

So you exclude Kobe because he’s retired and dead ? Lol. I don’t agree with this. Super wack.

Kobe had 5 rings , Jordan had 6. BOTH were coached by Phil Jackson. Both were 6’6” shooting guards. Both were mid-range, explosive , and competitive as fuck. Kobe had the edge from 3 point line. Jordan was obviously a little more explosive. I seriously can’t believe you hated on Kobe this much to exclude him from the discussion. What’s up G ? You all there ? 🤔

In other words , you’re a Kobe hater. Lol

I don’t care what “data” you present , Kobe is the closest thing to Jordan. EVER. Debate me now 💜🏀

@JxmyHighroller were did you find the Stats for this Video, I'm looking to to get into the Advanced Stats but can't find many Stats that correlate to the Stats in this Video

when we said jimmy butler was jordans son we weren't joking

the number 23 [dude, watch that movie]

I would of loved to see kobe included in this

D-Rose

I think it’s pg13 before I watch the vid

duh it’s anthony bennett

Tyler Herro is gonna be the GOAT

Kawhi updates his software every time he watches mj highlights

Andrew Wiggins

Love you micheal Jordan videos the best never gets old

i bet its Kawhi. that is my guess from the beginning.

Kawhi

What about Kobe

jaylen brown or kawhi

do this whole video again, and include Kobe - clearly the most Jordan-like of all time.

Kawhi is number one, period !

Well even before I started this video, I already know Kawhi is the closest to MJ's game. He's shown this as a Spur, as a Raptor, and currently as a Clipper. Last year's play-off was mind boggling... but that's just what basketball is. 😊

Why exclude All-Defensive from accolades?!

You need tighter editing! Too many ads!

Kobe

Russ and ja morabt

People dont understand how good jordan really was.he was the best on the floor defensive and the best in the floor offensively no other player ever can do that.dont get me wrong scottie was great too in defense but to me jordan was better.on top of that he went against the best of the best 50 of the top players of all time n beat them all cause of jordan alot of the 50 best dont got rings.when he played in the finals we knew he would never lose.we cant say that about anyone else.than he played where the center on defense can stay in the center the whole time n just wait for jordan to come in n 80 percent of the time foul him lol.he would really be averaging 50 or 60 pts in the nba now.he would average 20 trips to the foul line along.kobe is closest to jordan n lebron after that.all the greats always impact the league there rookie year n than get better every year.

There will never be another jordan kobe a.i shaq

kd

KD 4:35

All-time closest to MJ is Kobe. For current players, Kawhi.

Kobe not demar

The truly like Michael Jordan was kobe bryant ...footwork to fadeaway shot

All this back and forth and KOBE was the only one that got it from the source! That was his lil and he said it himself.🤷🏿‍♂

Kobe bryant

swear to god butler is his kid

Wow

Man!You are like one of the most hard working guys I have ever known in my life spending that many hours just o make some amazing content for us bless you bro all the best!!!

Maaaan every time i watch one of your videos i feel like im ready to go on a debate on espn against stephen a smith and win it hhhhh keep going G love the channel

I’m at 4:24 here are my 5 that I think might be the one. Jayson Tatum Kawhi Leonard Jimmy Butler Demar derozan and Kevin Durant. Edit: I got 4 out of 5 right. As that I mean like top 5

Harden because he the only one that plays by the book and knows the rules

Johnny Kilroy

I predicted demar and Kawhi would be most similar

Kwai

Can’t believe Tim Duncan showed up here Please upvote this comment so people believe it’s him lol

Kawhi or jaylen brown

Kawhi!!

Seeing this video just now and i must say... the derozan comparison is for me spot on because whenever i got to watch demar in toronto, when he was a legit all-star i used to tell my friends he reminds me a lot of MJ... in the strict offensive playing style sense.

Some reason I thought of Zach lavine

Probably jimmy butler

if you want to see who has a shot identical to jordans look no further than terry rozier
