站在这里的这名球员占据了他所从事的这项体育运动几乎所有的基本统计数据的前列,这在任何职业体育史上都是前无古人的;他所率领的球队主导了常规赛和季后赛;他把这项运动推到了前所未有的高度。从来没有过关于“乔丹和张伯伦谁更强”的争论;我所听到的惟一争论是在乔丹和鲁斯(篮球和棒球)之间。——史蒂夫·希尔特,伊利亚斯体育局执行副主席 The player standing here is at the forefront of almost all of the basic statistics on the sport he’s practiced in history of any professional sport; the team led by him leads the regular season and the playoffs; He pushed the sport to an unprecedented level. There has never been a debate about “Jordan and Chamberlain who are stronger.” The only argument I heard was between Jordan and Ruth (basketball and baseball). - Steve Hilt, executive vice president of the Ilias Sports Bureau
