Michael Jordan Addresses On Making a Pick Between Kobe And LeBron

Michael Jordan made a pick between LeBron James and Kobe Bryant. Sort of. The GOAT debate revolves around him and LeBron. However, some fans believe Kobe should snatch this title. Others say it’s Kevin Durant.

What does Jordan say about this? The Chicago Bulls legend was asked to select the best player in the NBA. He had to choose between the Lakers superstar and the legend.

Jordan has been a topic for a really long time, but this time he wasn’t even involved in the talks.

Ahmad Rashad had the honor to interview His Airness and their convo revealed so many details about the ongoing debate.

Jordan picks between LeBron and Kobe

LBJ and Kobe were the best players in the league at that points. MJ had to make a pick. Of course, the NBA icon cracked a few jokes and made his point in his own distinctive way.

“That’s a tough one. I’d say… Kevin Durant. Nah, I’m kidding,” MJ replied while laughing. 

Of course, Jordan got a little more serious. He explained the difference between LeBron and Kobe. “In terms of dominance in the game of basketball at this stage, it’s LeBron. Championship-wise, it’s Kobe,” Jordan continued. “He wants it so bad, he’s willing to go to the extreme, guarding a point guard at the age of 34 for 38 minutes, 40 minutes… It is what it is, he’s cursed as much as I am. If I had to pick between the two, that’d be a tough choice, but 5 [championships] beat one.”

MJ decided to keep it real. This is his way of seeing things. He believes that Kobe’s titles give him the edge over the kid from Akron. A lot of NBA fans won’t like this one.

NBA fans keep arguing about who the best player of all time is.

A lot of fans would go with LeBron. He won several titles and has a good chance to win even more. The Los Angeles Lakers missed the chance to win a title last season and LeBron will try his best to get a ring this time. That will work like a magic. How many titles will he win in his pro career?
