MJ Inducted

More likely than not, there will never be a better basketball player than Michael Jordan.  Arguably the best player to ever step on the hardwood, Jordan was inducted into the Basketball Hall-of-Fame on Friday evening.  “The entire night at Symphony Hall, Jordan watched highlight reels of himself in the past, throwing down acrobatic dunks, hitting game-changing shots and defying gravity, tongue wagging in the air,” wrote ESPN’s Justin Verrier about the ceremony.  ”By the time his name was called and the time had finally come at the end of the night, the emotion immediately spilled out and tears began to flow.”

“The crowd was captivated by his every word as he gave a speech as charismatic as his play on the court was,” Verrier continued.  ”Finally, though, Jordan ended his inauguration speech by saying he doesn’t see his enshrinement into the Basketball Hall of Fame as the ‘defining end.’”  “It’s simply a continuation of something I started a long time ago,” Jordan said.  Jordan’s speech was certainly a memorable one, as he drew laughs and also made some comments that may be viewed as a bit controversial.  But one thing is for sure, Jordan is undoubtedly one of the best to ever play the game.
