In a discussion about NBA legacies, Gilbert Arenas delved into why certain records, like Michael Jordan's six championship rings and Larry Bird's trio of consecutive MVP awards, remain elusive for today's players. Arenas noted that while players like LeBron James and Stephen Curry achieve personal milestones through individual prowess and persistence, as evidenced by Curry's record for three-pointers and LeBron's scoring feats, awards like MVPs rely heavily on voter bias. He pointed to Nikola Jokić and Giannis Antetokounmpo as examples of players who could potentially match or exceed Bird's MVP streak but are often hindered by subjective voting. When it came to Jordan's six rings, Arenas explained the importance of context, emphasizing the unbeaten nature of Jordan's Finals appearances as a benchmark that's hard to rival. Despite other legends like Bill Russell and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar having more rings, Arenas pointed out that such achievements often go unnoticed because the narratives around them aren't as celebrated or stylishly executed as Jordan's.
