Chapter 297 Never-Ending Hatred_2

The All-Star has always been a place that values legacy.

A few years ago, Jordan passed the torch to the young ones at the All-Star Game, but the League clearly felt that such a tradition wasn't formal enough, lacking a proper past and future, and was even vague—with so many people at the All-Star Game, could everyone be eligible to inherit Jordan's torch? Of course not. So, since the torch was passed on from West's generation, it should naturally go to someone specific.

"Do you really think the torch is in my hands?" West said self-deprecatingly, "I wasn't the biggest winner of that era."

Dr. J smoothly took over the topic, "Pardon my frankness, but the torch and legacy weren't popular before the '80s. This tradition might have started with Irving (Magic Johnson), so he's the one with the most authority to speak on it."

Magic Johnson shone like a star born to command the stage.
