Sometimes I think a four. With three wing, perhaps. Either way, concentration, internal inspiration, and intense inner drive came from somewhere. Which type has that much in reserve?
The reason I say he must have retained an enormous reserve of internal inspiration was becuase it certainly did not seem to come from the outside. He did not make his final high school basketball team try-outs. His h.s. coach passed him up becuase he saw 'nothing special' about him. Interesting. What else besides a relentless intense internal drive and inspiration could not let that experience deter him from at least practicing on his own anyway.
Also, Dennis Rodman, a three with a four wing, exhibitionist, but 'different' and 'shocking'. Definitely seeks attention, and the worst kind too. Acting? Is that not an attention-seeker?
I cannot see Jordan go for the movies, I see him sticking to sports and sports shoes sales, but Rodman just goes all out in his attention-seeking, starring in movies is stepping out of his sports 'concentration' and maintaining his 'look at me' exhibitionist needs.
Although at one point I thought Rodman a seven, in the end he just seems too 'angry' for a 'happy' seven.
A bitter, comtemptuos three: Rodman.
A self-actualizing four: Jordan.
