Fans and evaluators alike love disputing about who is the ‘GOAT’, or who would win in a hypothetical match between two immortal athletes. One of the most abiding debates is the correlation between basketball titans, Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Lately, a former boxing world champion has amplified this discussion by unleashing a barrage of stories on social media.

In a series of Instagram stories, the former champ shared two intriguing clips featuring basketball legends Scottie Pippen and Reggie Miller. In the first clip, Pippen shared his thoughts on the comparison between Jordan and James, highlighting their different playing styles and positions. The second clip featured Miller telling an interesting story about his experience playing against Jordan.

Pippen’s Role in Jordan’s Playstyle

The two clips shared by the former boxing world champion Adrien Broner on his Instagram story shed light on the ongoing debate about Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Scottie Pippen, Jordan’s former teammate and one of the greatest small forwards of all time, had an interesting take on the comparison between the two legends.

Pippen highlighted that Jordan and James played different positions and had distinct styles of play. He explicated that Jordan was principally a scorer and defender, while Pippen himself functioned as a facilitator and point-forward. As per Pippen, he adopted the role of point-forward to unburden Jordan and allow him to focus on what he excelled at – scoring. While Pippen acknowledged that James is a well-rounded player akin to Jordan, he emphasized that there isn’t a single match in which he would select James over Jordan.

Miller’s Encounter with Michael Jordan

In the next reel, Reggie Miller, a former shooting guard who faced off against Jordan multiple times throughout his career, was featured. Miller recounted a moment from a match in which he was performing notably well and taunting Jordan, who was experiencing a sluggish start.

Jordan answered by reminding Miller of his identity and blasting Miller’s team in the second half. At the conclusion of the game, Jordan had garnered 44 points, while Miller had only achieved 12, whereas Jordan had 4 in the first half and Miller had 10.

Adrien Broner Teases a Return to the Ring

These clips only contribute to the ongoing discourse on who the greatest basketball player of all time is. Although several contend that James has an all-around superior game and possesses better statistics, many argue that Jordan’s ability to score is unmatched, and his six NBA championships and his influence on basketball, both in and out of the court, speak for themselves. Ultimately, this topic will probably remain unsettled, yet it serves as an engaging subject for deliberation among basketball aficionados and analysts alike.
