Jim Jackson has an interesting take in this clip and i kind of see what he is talking about when he says bring up Bron, Jordan and Magic.

And i 100% agree with him on Kobe since Kobe is a great value version of Jordan so there is no wow i have never seen this before?

But Larry Bird is more interesting case

Bird is transformational.
To be a legit ball handling proto-stretch 4 .
Its absurd to say he wasn't tranformational.
Jordan wasn't transformational either in terms of play style, so I can see why he would say his "heirs" in d-wade and Kobe aren't transformational either. The only thing special about Jordan was how Stern changed the ruleset and marketed the league to support only Jordan.

Watch the video he considers Jordan transformational and HE IS 100 percent right.

Bird wasn't a 4 so i don't know what you are talking about

I would say Kobe and Jordan were transcendent as well. They greatly changed and carried the league
