Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Just another day and another argument added to the never ending debate. Many legends, greats, players, sports analysts, show hosts, basketball experts and millions of fans have had their say. MJ or LeBron. Either MJ or LeBron.

The two legends of the game could never play against each other or else we would have compared the two against each other as well. No matter how we compare the two, there will be no concrete evidence to say that either of the two is the absolute GOAT.

Michael Jordan clearly beats LeBron in terms of titles. MJ dominated the league for an entire decade even when he did not play for one season. Whereas LeBron James is clearly ahead in his individual stats. He is the only player in history to have over 10,000 points, rebounds and assists. He always is just second in the most points in NBA history and by the looks of it he might be the player with most points by the time he retires. No conclusive point to suggest who is the undisputed GOAT. However, guys on Undisputed discuss the same.

WATCH THIS STORY: LeBron compares himself to MJ.

Jason Kidd picks LeBron James over Michael Jordan

Hall of Famer Jason Kidd has declared that in his opinion LeBron is the ultimate GOAT. Jason Kidd with the Dallas Mavericks, defeated LeBron James in the 2011 NBA finals to win his only championship. Jason thinks that in more aspects than the game on the court itself, LeBron James beats Michael Jordan in being the best player ever.

The Dallas Maverick’s head coach Jason chose LeBron because of what he’s done both on and off the court, saying quote “you got to put the whole package together.”

Shannon picked LeBron once again. Although he added his own points in the matter. He said that MJ, because of obvious reasons and like many other stars in the 80-90s, did not come forward on many issues due to the lack of social media. In today’s world, it is more of a responsibility for players to speak on many matters. He said that off the court factor shouldn’t even be in the discussion which Bayless also pointed out. However, Skip Bayless mentioned the fact that when the NBA was played behind closed doors and the Lakers won the championship, LeBron and Jason had formed a relation between them. Which is why he is obviously leaning towards LeBron.
