Lionel Messi on Michael Jordan: “It seems to me, in terms of sports, he’s the greatest there is (…) But after having seen his series and getting to know a bit more about him, you know, “The Last Dance”, it just blows your mind, it’s a masterpiece, it’s impressive. Well, that also brought me closer to him and to understand a bit more about who he was. It’s a pity that I couldn’t live through that era in person, because I would’ve loved it. Honestly, I don’t know much about basketball either, nor am I a big follower, but I think he was something different in all sports, not just in basketball. And well, I have a huge admiration for him. And since so many people have asked me for photos, I couldn’t get one with him, it would be something nice.” -via YouTube / June 24, 2024
