He was once asked who he thinks was the G.O.A.T. of basketball. How he answered the question was what drew the attention of those around him. It was interesting to see Woods beautifully highlight the strengths and the differences between the two players.

Woods said, “LeBron is different. He’s like a hybrid of MJ and magic, which is so different. He’s bringing the ball up a lot. MJ never did that. He had Pip as a point forward a lot of times. You would think that that’s kind of LeBron-ish, but they’re very different in how they help both teams.”

LeBron James is a four-time NBA Champion. He is the first active NBA player to become a billionaire. He plays for the LA Lakers. The NBA Champion’s style has been very often compared to Michael Jordan’s. However, Tiger Woods did not agree. According to him, both the major basketballers have their own set of skills somewhat entirely different from one another. They both excel in the sport in their own unique way.

Tiger Woods strategically answered the question in a way that resonated with the people around him. The pro golfer called LeBron James a hybrid of MJ and magic. He appreciated his different style of playing the enigmatic sport of basketball. Woods did not shy away from calling LeBron’s game different.

He was quick to acknowledge the efforts Woods made and congratulated him for the same. However, only time will tell the path their friendship will take, and whether the two will reignite the almost-lost bond into its former glory.
