Meh, it is debatablee that Jordan is the goat, personally I think it is Wilt Chamberlain as the NBA made rules against Wilt to make the rest of the league compete against him, similarly, the NBA made rules for Jordan and against teams like the Pistons initiating flagrant fouls and sissy policies. The Lakers, Celtics and Pistons were all physical teams.

I think both Jordan and Bird were legendary trash talkers. 

That said I prefer equating Burrow with Jordan.  I think Burrow is an outstanding athlete aka two sports as Jordan with baseball, "cough, cough".
