Big Bird and Magic represent an era, that is, the era when professional basketball became popular in the country of basketball. They laid the foundation for the Flyers to rule, OK to dominate, and James, Durant, Curry and others to make basketball so wonderful. Let all of them become billionaires, own their own business empires, and have high social status.
But if we look back 40 years, this is simply unimaginable.
The alliance was not popular and the first man of the day was a deranged racist;
The perfect heir to Bob Cousy suffered from the jealousy of his teammates and the ravages of alcohol;
Possessing the most elegant pick-up basket in history, but also possessing the most incomprehensible personality in history;
He had the opportunity to become Michael Jordan, but his chaotic private life made him shut out all possibilities;
The great white hope fell after his knee exploded;
Hondo and Dr. J are unique idols, but one of them wins too much and talks too little, and the other wins too little and talks too much.
The decadence of the 1970s continues. Violent conflicts, the proliferation of drugs, too many black people, excessive player salaries, and countless problems have pushed this professional league worth tens of billions of dollars in the future into a precarious situation.
Crisis is like a synonym for opportunity. The more dangerous the situation, the more outstanding people will emerge.
Let's see how the guy from the future becomes the most special member in this era of shining stars.
He knows very well that winning everything means losing everything.
The rest is just noise.
PS: If you are a fan who thinks that the black and white duo will save the NBA when you open your mouth, this book may surprise you.
