I think that this picture of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Lebron James, speaks volumes about where the 3 players rank in all time greatness.
Most level headed sports fans know that Michae Jordan is without a doubt the best basketball player EVER, and maybe the best athlete of all time. But a younger generation of fans that never saw MJ play don't agree with that. They think Lebron James is the G.O.A.T.
They are 100% wrong. I don't even have Lebron ahead of Kobe.
The stats on this picture are all the proof you need to know. Cheers MJ, you are THE MAN!
