Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time, says Michael Jordan agent David Falk

According to David Falk, there are two types of NBA players – Michael Jordan and everyone else behind him. While talking to SportsCenter, Falk revealed that Jordan was more than other players in every aspect beyond his physical abilities. He added that though he is biased as Jordan is his friend, one had to be blind to not realise Jordan is the GOAT. If they watch the documentary for ten hours and still think there is a player better than Jordan, they should just start watching roller derby.

While Jordan's jumping ability and speed are arguably unrivalled, it is his mind that sets him apart according to David Falk. Falk explains that Jordan used a physiological approach to the game and elevated it to a level which will never be repeated.
