While talking to Curry, Jordan shared that he hates losing. He went on to elaborate, adding that he does in the end respect losing. “Losing’s a part of winning, you know? You never just win, you gotta lose to win”.
He connected the same to the Ryder Cup situation, convinced that it depends on how bad they (the Americans) want it. “We were dominant early on, and now that they are – does it mean as much to us as it does to them? And if that’s the case then losing is gonna hurt”.
