The renowned ESPN writer, Bill Simmons, was overwhelmingly shocked when he saw the eerily similar scenes of Roger and Michael Jordan being interviewed.
As a true sports fan, Bill Simmons witnessed the era of Michael Jordan and Roger's rivalry through the eyes of a fan.
Obviously, Michael Jordan was the loser.
Even if he could win against Roger once in the playoffs, he wouldn't lose so completely.
Under Roger's strong dominance, over time, people forgot Michael Jordan's magic before 1994, and they forgot that he also briefly ruled this league.
In competitive sports, there are certainly winners and losers, and the fact that Michael Jordan is a loser cannot be changed.
But yesterday's game gave Bill Simmons a profound feeling: Michael is still great.
Players like Roger and Michael Jordan, whether at their peak or at 40 years old, whether their goal is to win a championship or make it to the playoffs, have certain qualities that will never change and can always inspire fans.
