If this was just a silhouette, would you automatically think Jordan? Don?t know that I would. The pose gives no credence or air to his signature ?hangtime? moments. There are so many iconic snapshots that could be used to statue a Jordan dunk or ?flight time.? The closest this statue comes to is Jordan?s baseline dunk on the Knicks.
The base is boring. Have him springing from six O?Brien trophies, or six rings. Ok, that sounds crazy, but something better than this. Stencil his noted stats and basketball achievements on the base. Something, at the very least, that accentuates the figure being presented. The only reasoning I can see for the current base is if future player statues will have the same type base for a consistent look.
I applaud PCS for potentially doing a NBA statue series, but a ?generic? pose for one of the greatest athletes ever is underwhelming.
