Chris Rock compared Chris Farley to Michael Jordan in a podcast appearance with David Spade and Dana Carvey. Rock and Farley worked together on "Saturday Night Live" from 1990 to 1993. By comparing Farley to Jordan, Rock was basically saying that the late comedian was one of the greatest of all time.
On the "Fly on the Wall" podcast, the former SNL cast members discussed Farley's legacy heading into the 25th anniversary of his death. Rock praised Farley and explained that the success he had was due to his comedic talent while also comparing him to the Chicago Bulls legend Jordan.
"No one was competing with Farley," Rock said. "He's Michael Jordan, and get him the ball. … He had a way of stepping into funny. Like it was just on his shoe, he didn't know how he got there."
Carvey chimed in on how Farley could take over a sketch, and no one had a problem with that:
"If he wanted to take the scene, he could take it, if he felt like it. And he was a nice guy, so he'd lay back sometimes. But if he wanted to go to a move that no one else has, that energy that he could explode with. "
Chris Farley worked on "Saturday Night Live" from 1990 to 1995. He went on to pursue a film career and starred in movies such as "Tommy Boy," "Black Sheep" and "Beverley Hills Ninja." Farley, unfortunately, died of an overdose in 1997 at the age of 33.
NBA renames MVP award as Michael Jordan Trophy
The NBA announced on Tuesday that they will rename five existing individual awards and add a new one for the current season. The MVP award will now be called the Michael Jordan Trophy, honoring the legendary career of the six-time champion.
The new MVP trophy was carefully crafted by Mark Smith, a former employee at Nike and Jordan Brand. It stands at 23.6 inches and weighs 23.6 pounds, which references MJ's jersey number and total championships won.
Meanwhile, the Defensive Player of the Year is now known as the Hakeem Olajuwon Trophy. The Rookie of the Year is now called the Wilt Chamberlain Trophy, while the Sixth Man of the Year is now named after John Havlicek. George Mikan was also honored by renaming the Most Improved Player of the Year after him.
The new award is called the Jerry West Trophy, which is awarded to the Clutch Player of the Year. Last season, the NBA introduced the Magic Johnson Trophy and Larry Bird Trophy given to the MVP of each Conference Final.
