Michael Jordan is the person you should always think of when you think of Chicago baseball or basketball.
Not Isaiah Thomas.
You can go through the litany of high school players who came through Chicago and became stars, but it's like... And I know he wasn't going full hot take here, but...
It always just kind of bothers me when people are like, don't put Jordan at the top with space in between in terms of who the biggest impact ever on the city of Chicago was and probably always will be is Michael Jordan.
He's at the top of every list in Chicago by a mile.
It's not close.
It's not close.
He won six titles.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that we have the video to support that at the time he was playing when games on television became very much normalized and everything else.
So even if you're a grade school kid in the Derrick Rose era, right, and you're 7, 8, 9, 10 years old watching Derrick Rose become MVP, you can always go look at the tape of Michael Jordan and be like, it's very different than looking at the tape of, I don't know, Sid Luckman comparing him to Caleb Williams.
Here's who you think of when you think of Chicago basketball.
Not that guy.
As fun as it is to think of the guys that are actually from here, it's Jordan by a mile on every list.
On every list.
There probably shouldn't even be a number two on all the Michael Jordan lists.
But let us take one more break.
Do we have new Tom Brady audio?
Oh, let's take the break then.
Rahimi Harris and Grody will be hearing from Tom Brady next on The Score.
