There are only four people in the NBA that really influence the world. Am I not qualified?

Recently, Anthony threw a bombshell in the podcast: "There are only four people in the NBA that have really influenced the world, and I am not qualified." As soon as this was said, the fan circle was in a panic - you should know that Melon is a 10th All-Star, why did she exclude herself? What are the origins of the four people he mentioned that can make him surrender so much?

Many foreign media reported on the 15th that any of the four big shots Anthony named were the ones that could rewrite the history of basketball. Needless to say, Jordan is officially certified by the NBA. The "God of Basketball" has turned the Bulls into a global symbol for two consecutive championships. Air Jordan sneakers are still hard currency in the trend circle. As for Kobe, five championship rings are in his hands, Mamba's spirit has gone from the basketball court to the workplace, and how many people have used his "Los Angeles at 4 am" as his motto. What's even more interesting is that Anthony deliberately puts Iverson and the Magician on the list - a 1.83-meter-old man carried 76ers into the finals, and the other used "SHOW TIME" to turn the Lakers into the Hollywood set. Why are these two people tied with Joko?

When you carefully study Anthony's list, there are many tricks hidden in it. Jordan changed the business landscape of the NBA, Kobe completely opened up the Asian market, Iverson broke the league's dress rules with street style, and the Magician turned basketball into a global live show in the 1980s. You see, Anthony specifically mentioned that Iverson had influenced his career, and even wanted AI to be his Hall of Fame recommender - this is not just the admiration of his seniors for their predecessors, but more like saying, "Without your ruthlessness, I can't get to where I am today." At present, the NBA is calling for globalization every day, but looking at the current players, who can do the same as these four, not only show strong honors, but also stuff basketball culture into young people's wardrobes and mobile phones?

Anthony's words are not so much self-evaluation, but rather a wake-up call for the league. When the stars are busy shooting advertisements and cross-border, how many people are really thinking about how to break the circle of basketball? Jordan lets Americans know that basketball can make a lot of money, Kobe makes Chinese people crazy about basketball, Iverson makes street teenagers believe that small people can be heroes, and magicians let the whole world see the entertainment of basketball. Who will the NBA rely on to conquer the next billion people? Is it relying on data brushes, or is it relying on a ruthless person who can truly expand territory at the cultural level? Anthony didn't say it out loud, but this problem has been enough for the league and the players to think about it for a while.
