Michael Jordan's most irritating legacy

The Bulls great (and the Bullets good) was the first player I heard refer to basketball as "the game of basketball," as opposed to, you know, "basketball."
This pretentious bit of verbal puffery took.
Last night a TNT hoops analyst -- in a single sentence -- used "the game of basketball" and "rebound the basketball."
As opposed to "rebound the hot dog concession?"
