Michael Jordan named his unbeatable pickup team and revealed one of his favorite dunks in a promotional video he did for a video game.
The former Chicago Bulls star chose teammate Scottie Pippen, Los Angeles Lakers James Worthy and Magic Johnson and Houston Rockets center Hakeem Olajuwon as his teammates in a pickup game.
"I got no chance of losing. None at all," he said in the video released by 2KSports to promote NBA 2K14.

"Thanks again MJ!" |
James Worthy is another UNC player and former teammate of Jordan. Everyone on his "unbeatable pickup team" was a contemporary. If you are going to go the route of only picking players you played with/against, how do you pass on Larry Bird? Not a huge deal. It's probably just Jordan giving props to one of his UNC guys (I wonder if Charles Barkley's criticism of MJ as an owner/GM got him kicked off his friend's list). But when you don't include Larry Joe Bird on any all-time list, and you put James Worthy in his place, Lucy you have some splainin to do.
