On September 13, NBA legendary Magic Johnson played the podcast show Earn Your Leisure. When the topic focused on two superstars in basketball history, Jordan and James, his sharing was like a bombshell, triggering heated discussions in the basketball world.

Magicians did not hide their admiration for Jordan and said firmly: "Jordan is the best player of all time, and there is no doubt that this is true. Although I admire James, he is an admirable junior, Jordan's dominance on the field is unique." He recalled Jordan's classic goal against the Lakers in the 1991 Finals, and his words were full of praise: "Jordan held the ball in his right hand and stuck out his tongue iconically. At that time, our team rushed up to try to block it. I thought he had completely blocked his offensive line. However, he actually watched us land first, then switched the ball from right hand to left, even moving the position of his tongue to the left, and finally easily scored. This action was in the NBA In the long river of history, no one can replicate its calmness and lethality." The magician laughed and said that Jordan was "too bad" on the court, and added: "James is also a strong man on the court, but they have different styles." His evaluation not only accurately points out the differences between the two superstars, but also highlights Jordan's uniqueness.

Talking about the feeling of matchmaking with Jordan, the Magician was honest and modest: "Someone asked me if I could beat Jordan, and my answer was no. His ability in one-on-one offense and defense is the top in history. I have a clear understanding of myself. If I had to find something that was slightly stronger than him, it might be some details of passing vision and team leadership, but compared with his overall dominance, it is really not worth mentioning."

In the eyes of the Magician, Jordan's strength is not only reflected in his scoring ability, but also in those extremely impactful performances of the field: "When facing the match, he will definitely hit me in various ways, dunks and ending actions that are unpredictable, all of which make people unable to defend. These traits make him awesome 'bad boy' on the court, and also make him worthy of becoming the NBA The most outstanding player ever. ”
