The league made sure it was a foul anytime he was touched after what the fukked up pistons were getting away with. I will give it to mj tho for being smart by harnessing his signature fadeaway move, he used that great skill to destroy the league, that's where I give him a lot of props.
Why was Michael Jordan so good?

Like everyone said he had the genetics and the work ethic. He was rarely sick and rarely got injured. He changed the whole league because other players wanted to become better than him. In his day he was playing people who wouldn't even make it to a bottom 5 college team, and he has raised the standard of what an NBA player should be.

what set MJ apart was his competitiveness and his balls.. he wasn't afraid of anyone.
He didnt need to be friends with every one in the league, that some insecure female shyt.. he was content to beat everyone in the league and be a selfish a$$hole.

Work ethic. Many other people work hard too, but with MJ, it just seemed like it was all he lived. Genetics or not, he wanted to be great more than probably anybody else.
This is false..
its no different then top sales people at large corporations or real estate or anyone else who is way above anyone else in their field..
some people just have another level they can take it to, take it more serious than others or are more motivated than others and while others may be as motivated, you couple that with the talent it puts rare individuals on a plateau
While not the NBA, still large corporations I worked for AT&T and Verizon and I was #1 or #2 almost always every month on the entire west coast (6000+ sales people) or at the bare minimum the district / region and I worked in a way smaller store than large cities like San Francisco, LA, etc. but I was just THAT good coupled with a drive other sales people didnt share.
but I was obsessed every single day I clocked in to maintain #1 by any means, to the point my co workers would be so jealous of my commission checks or how many people id help in a day compared to them (hungry) they would make complaints to managers saying its not fair
fukk them 
every job I worked at, fukk even selling shoes at Champs in my young years I HAD to be #1 in sales in the store or district at the least.. I was obsessed with it.. every day when I clocked in id check my ranks in the store, district and region.. Champs, AT&T, Verizon, Chase, it didnt matter I needed to be #1 in some way.. I dont give a shyt if its flipping credit cards or checking accounts as a banker at Chase, I needed to push more than anyone else in my branch

In addition to Jordan's own combination of athleticism, competitive drive, and overall playing ability, the game itself is different and the players are too. Even if the players overall in the league now are considered to be in better shape, the game isn't played the same. Players aren't guarded as tightly or hard fouled. Players are also lighter due to being more fit, which makes some of that contact less punishing on the body.
Most of these new players would get destroyed going in the paint back then. And wouldn't get calls they get now.
So you have the player and the era. Jordan was the best and still is because he played in a physical era against bigger and heavier people with more contact. And even then, they were like goddamn this nikka strong and he will talk shyt about you until you lose your soul. And I can't stop him
Neither can the rest of the team
Once he got fed up with the pistons shyt, he never looked back
GOAT
