Why did Jordan reappear in the NBA as an interpreter? Brother is not a legend, the God of Basketball

The reason why Jordan ranks among the top presidential mountain in NBA history is that he is commendable in terms of personal data, honor resume, or the number of championship trophys.
When even every historical record frequently appears his name, it is true that history is best to withstand any scrutiny! There has always been only one God of Basketball, and that is Michael Jordan!
Now, it is still shocking to count his records that have been forever. Apart from sighing at the emperor's superstar, all other words are pale and powerless.
Jordan won the scoring leader 10 times in his career. In the 1986-87 season, he averaged 37.1 points per game in a single season and was awarded the scoring leader that year. This achievement is unprecedented and no one will come.
While playing for the Bulls, Jordan led the team to dominate an era with two consecutive championships, killing countless stars' dream of winning for life. In the 1998 season, Jordan's salary was as high as $33.14 million that year, which was almost amazing. Isn't this the most intuitive reflection of his superb football skills?
In that era when salary of tens of millions is considered a big contract, Jordan's salary was almost a sky-high price, and gorgeously occupied 123.2% of the NBA salary cap that year. Who else in the NBA can do it and compare it with it?
When Jordan became the spokesperson of the God of Basketball, even though he no longer exists in the world, the legend about him is still spreading and is still talked about.
This is not understandable, why Jordan still detonated the entire NBA league when he returned to basketball in another way.
Previously, NBC, Amazon and ESPN jointly spent 11 years to win the NBA broadcasting rights from TNT for astronomical prices. Since then, the NBA broadcasting era has begun a new era.
Since the "big cake" is in hand, only by attracting the sky-high traffic can we achieve profitability. Who else in the NBA can bring huge traffic topics and not reduce popularity than Jordan? Finally, in May, Jordan signed a sky-high contract in sports commentary history with NBC, with an annual salary of up to $40 million.
It is worth mentioning that the maximum salary of Jordan's player era in a single season was US$33.14 million. Now this commentary contract is much more than his peak salary that year. Looking at the entire commentary circle, it looks down on everyone.
Jordan started his commentary career as a "special contributor". His work is leisurely and may just slowly record a 10-minute analysis video before some key battles...
Jordan's job is not like other commentators who comment on 4 games a week, and he does not have to participate in those boring technical analysis...
So does this mean that NBC signing Jordan is like spending money?
The answer is no. With Jordan's huge social media influence, it is estimated that it can directly drive at least 3 million subscribers. This base is still relatively conservative.
And an NBC member pays $9.9 per month, which alone can bring in more than $350 million in annual revenue, and NBC undoubtedly makes a lot of money.
In addition, when the new generation of stars of Wenbanyama, Edwards, and Doncic emerged, thousands of new-age fans also hope that Jordan will evaluate his idol, and the value of this wave of traffic advertising is also incalculable...
For Jordan, who is worth over 100 million, this job is more like a part-time job, and there is no need to make a living to support his family.
