Dennis Rodman bashed MJ’s GOAT competitor LeBron James

Safe to say, Dennis Rodman is one of the biggest supporters of Michael Jordan. There is ample reason to say so. He has publicly called Jordan the greatest player ever and has also ridiculed LeBron James.

LeBron is widely regarded as the person to challenge Jordan for the GOAT stature. However, Rodman feels otherwise. According to him. LeBron is easy to guard and lock up and Scottie Pippen would have no problem guarding him. 

Rodman said, “LeBron is so easy to play. He’s so f**king easy to play. He don’t have any moves, he ain’t got no moves. Scottie Pippen would shut his f**king a** down quick before I got to him. His game is too simple, he’s just big.”
