Everybody has set their sights on Cleveland, targeting the Nike duo.
At today's press conference, most people were praising Jordan, and Jordan was thoroughly enjoying it. He hadn't felt like a hero in years.
"Michael, what does it feel like to score 41 points at the age of 40?"
"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful. But that's not the best part; my goal is to lead the team to the playoffs, and I will definitely do it. That will be the best moment. Cleveland's dark days are over; I've always said that."
"This is undoubtedly an unprecedented record. You're still one of the best athletes in the league, aren't you?"
"No, no, no, I'm old now—otherwise, I would have gotten 51 points tonight, maybe 61."
Jordan smugly bragged, drawing laughter from the entire room.
The flattery ended, and the reporters moved on to other questions. The next question wiped the smile off Jordan's face instantly.
"What's your assessment of LeBron today?"
