Ever since James won his 4th title, the NBA world basically hasn’t stopped talking about LeBron James or Michael Jordan.
While James already had a fighting chance in the debate before the Finals, winning another ring just strengthened his case.
Then again, Michael Jordan’s case also is very strong. He’s been the greatest basically forever, and his 6-0 Finals records speaks for itself.
While I’ve been team Jordan, and still am, I have to admit that the debate is closer now than ever before, and I really can’t and won’t blame anyone who’s siding with LeBron James.
But what does LeBron himself think? Well, he kind of talked about it, but while not really giving a definite answer, he reminded everyone that Michael Jordan is his idol and that he wears number 23 because of him.
“The debates can happen. Y’all can talk about it. I’ll talk about it with my guys when we at home, our friends and all that stuff. But I’m not going to give it to y’all. I’m not going to do it. I’m not going to fall for it. You guys know how much I love Michael Jordan. I wear the number 23 because of Michael Jordan. When I first got my first pair of Jordans, you couldn’t tell me nothing. So, y’all can do the debates. Y’all can figure that out.”
“You guys know how much I love Michael Jordan. I wear No. 23 because of Michael Jordan… Y’all can do the debates.”
