There are many reasons why I like Jordan, not only for his extraordinary talents, determination and will, but also his inspiration journey into becoming probably the best basketball player that has ever set foot onto a NBA court, how he revolutionized the game forever and his brand of shoes.

Michael Jordan had the ability to confuse opponents, anger coaches with his fast, powerful moves, with his finesse when doing a dunk, lay-up or cross-over. Another reason why I like the best basketball player in history is because of his grit determination on the court and his will to strive for glory which he did by winning the playoffs six times and receiving five MVP awards and 6 finals MVP awards. His inspirational journey of not getting selected in his school basketball team which made him train over the summer every single day which resulted in him being the best basketball player in history is what I like about him the most.

After leaving the game that would never forget him, he made impressions on all the other basketball players in the future to come, some of them being the Dwyane Wade and LeBron James- who are now the dominate forces in the NBA thanks to Michael Jordan's talents and achievements.

Other than liking the man himself I love his products as they bring new designs which look awesome, he has the best range of quality basketball shoes I have had and they are the most comfortable basketball shoes I have worn, which makes me believe they are the best!

This is why I like Jordan the most.
