Michael Jordan Reflects on How Pat Riley and the Knicks Fueled His Competitive Fire #shorts #viral
In Michael Jordan’s Hall of Fame induction speech in 2009, he spoke about how Pat Riley and the New York Knicks provided motivation throughout his career.
Jordan mentioned how facing tough teams and rivalries, particularly against the Knicks coached by Riley, pushed him to elevate his game.
The battles with the Knicks in the playoffs during the 1990s, known for their physical play and intense competitiveness, fueled Jordan’s competitive fire and contributed to his legendary status in basketball history.

MJ basically said you did the right thing lol
He's as friendly as …..
I GOT to get a reading from You Maji its time to know forsure
Pat Riley when he joined the Heat immediately retired the number 23 because of MJ
😂😂😂
Ewing.
Knicks picked up Pat Reily, why they couldn't get magic is beyond me…
Air Jordan aired out everyone in his HOF speech 😂
MJ is an ULTRA conceited self-absorbed POS… when he would go out to dinner, he wouldn’t leave a tip, saying in all seriousness’she got to wait on me, that was her tip.
I would’ve left the tip by throwing the money at him. I LOATHE people who take advantage &/or treat service people poorly. AND b/c you can put a ball through a hoop? Yup the world is better off you’re in it!
I still have that poster of John Starks dunking on both MJ and Horace Grant
Scottie Pippen The Best Ever! no Pippen No Championship! jordan selfish player
I'm an MJ fan. But I don't like his speech. All are laughing but he still competing in his speech and dead serious. But that's MJ.
😅😅😅
😂
He is one of one.
Jordan was real
what he showed to the public was what he really was, like Muhammed Ali and Babe Ruth before him and the public recognized that and appreciated him more for it
lebron is fake
a marketing tool who is not even close to what he pretends himself to be. the public recognizes that and dont appreciate the con game he and Klutch Sports are playing. we are not that stupid. lebron is like Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds before him. fans feel betrayed and rightly so
Only the 🐐 can say this… speaking truth!
The most friendly kille on the court. He used to smile kindly while killing the confidence of the opposing players, sometimes even give them compliments, saying they did well after droping 45 or 50 on them.
Guy kept all the receipts. Gotta love it!
Riley always gave Jordan and bird their flowers. Was relentless but fair. He's a dying breed😢
The fear and respect from the NBA. That is the GOAT.
Everyone blames Krause and yes he was an ass, but for me the blame is 80% on Reinsdorf he could've restructured Pippens contract after 92 and made MJ the highest level at any point. The irony is Krause understood high level talent he wanted to trade Pippen for TMac. My biggest problem with Krause is he always missed on his 1st round picks after Horace.
First Hall of Fame speech that became a Roast ICONIC😂

Patty Riley should never be allowed in the crypto centre same as that makefaker Phyllis Jackson
Yeah Antman settled for jump shots cos the league now is so 3-point focused
Low key saying Starks couldn’t stop him
COLD
Listen pat riley was the originator of Jordan being a con man he didn’t want his players hanging with Mike because he knew they legitimately all loved him and mike loved those guys as well let’s not forget he almost signed with the Knicks in free agency until Jerry reinsdorff realized we might really lose him and gave him what he deserved
Hate to be that guy but that music in the background is really good. Can anyone help me out?
