Pep Guardiola on Michael Jordan: “I would wake up at 3 or 4am at Barcelona while my wife was sleeping and I was watching the TV, because I had the feeling that I would never see again this kind of charisma, this competitor, this level of skill all in one person to win many Championships.”

Even Pep wants to Be Like Mike
I googled him and can tell he’s a successful soccer coach but don’t know anything else. Can someone give me an NBA comp for him? Thanks.
Edit: thanks. Phil Jackson.
I used to do that as well but to watch Denzel Valentine and Felicio
I used to make sure that I watched every game of his, all season long because the intensity he brought each night and the desire to win. I taped (yes a vhs tape) the games I couldn’t watch because my own games conflicted with the schedule. The man never took a night off, never played half ass, never took his time getting back on defense. MJ thrived on competition and the players in the 80s and 90s brought it. Dude would be so bored in today’s NBA.
