Sports analyst Chris Broussard shared his thoughts on who had a better career between LeBron James and Michael Jordan. According to him, it was the Chicago Bulls legend.
“There’s one GOAT. It’s Tom Brady in the NFL. It’s Michael Jordan in the NBA. All this other stuff… best career. What does that mean?! I’m tired of people saying it’s an insult to say LeBron’s better than Magic, Kareem, Wilt, Bird, everyone else to play except Michael Jordan. It’s not!” Broussard said on Herd with Colin Cowherd.
“Oh and individuallly he led the league in scoring ten straight years when he was healthy. Jordan had essentially eleven full seasons. Twice in his thirteen years with Chicago he came back from baseball played like seventeen games in regular season and then he was hurt in second year, played seventeen or eighteen games. So he really had eleven full seasons if you toss out when he’s elderly in Washington.
“And in those eleven seasons, Colin, he won six championships. The longevity argument for LeBron is a positive in many ways. He’s gonna have the records. Longevity records. But it can also be a negative because I can say “Well, hold on, in seventeen years he’s only gonna have four rings. Jordan had six in eleven.”
“But how does LeBron have a better career than Michael Jordan? Jordan won six championships, that’s the ultimate goal! I don’t see LeBron has had a better career. Jordan locked down the whole league. Nobody else could win. Other guys have won under LeBron’s watch.
“Tim Duncan’s won, Kevin Durant’s won, Steph Curry’s won. And they didn’t all have a team necessary to do it. Dirk Nowitzki won. Jordan since he started winning, it’s over! You won’t win again unless I decide to go play baseball or unless I decide to retire again.”
