The Next Legend

Dr. J windmill reverse lay-up, Jordan’s dunk from the foul line, Larry Birds dive headfirst into the stands. Whatever is it; these are some of the things to be considering in becoming the next legend. These are the purest display of sport that I can recall and are worth watching.

Our game is changing, people change and the standards of what the people want change. Who is the Next Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson or Dr. J? Kobe Bryant is the total package of offence and defense. Vince Carter is a highflying acrobat. Maybe they can be the next legend.

Basketball needs a fundamental purist with profound skill and the desire to win. There would be another MJ, Dr. J, Magic or Larry Bird. Remember what really matters. The game changes.
