Shannon Sharpe reacts to Giannis saying LeBron James is better than Michael Jordan
Shannon Sharpe: “Of course. Now look, if you want to say the GOAT status is solely based on rings, I don’t have an argument, because six is more than four”
“But that’s the only time you use the argument, because Russell has more. There are several other Celtics that have more than six, and you never include them in the GOAT discussion”
“But I believe LeBron James has played better longer than any other player in the history”
“And if you look at the teams that he’s lost to, you tell me the team that Michael Jordan played in the NBA Finals that’s comparable to the ’17-’18 Golden State Warriors. There isn’t one”
Stephen A. Smith: “No, no, no. Skip, I thought you were finished. I thought you were finished. Go ahead. Go ahead with the blasphemy”
A'ja Wilson is still this seasons MVP in my opinion. She has the best combination of production, efficiency, defense & dominance. Additionally she leads the league in scoring and blocks and is top 5 in rebounds while holding down 3rd in the standings.
Any player that is in contention for both MVP and DPOY is the MVP.
How can you be the leagues leading scorer and best defender and not the most valuable? Make it make sense.
Why do we do this? No one on planet earth is saying Liv isn’t deserving, don’t meet the qualifications etc, it’s just there’s someone in the league playing at an HISTORIC level on BOTH ENDS of the floor. Why is this such a hard thing to come to grips with? Liv is PHENOMENAL. It just happens to be that the best offensive player and best defensive player, IS THE SAME PLAYER
Y’all do not understand how crazy it is for A’ja to put up these numbers regular box stats and analytical stats….. She’s literally having a better year than last year… Y’all can give Liv props without lying about A’ja man…
Mitchell is the best player on the Fever. SHE has the ball in her hands & is on the floor at the end of the game. CC can’t be MVP if you:
1. Aren’t the best player on the team
2. can’t have the ball in your hands or be on the floor at the end of a game
3 minutes of pros picking Bron over Jordan. I mainly believe people are scared to admit it’s LeBron over Mike due to nostalgia mainly. Blinded by tht, they can’t see the obvious truth. Bron is the goat. Even tho these NBA playoffs have been fire, ratings are down 35% since Brons
The bad boy narrative is a bunch of bullsh-
Here is footage of every single shot of or foul on MJ in games 1-5 of the 1990 ECF, the series I've been told was the most physical
Show me where are all the hard fouls at. No one is able to show me
Michael Beasley on LeBron James:
“With Jordan… they don’t tell the story of him having to learn the championship pedigree. LeBron James gave us the opportunity to be witnesses… He’s been so great that we don’t have anything to say.” 🐐

Michael Jordan EXPOSED!!! This man was out here gettin fried up by Iverson, Renaldo Blackman lmfao, Clyde Drexler who always used to cook him, Grant Hill, and John Starks. Imagine what it would look like tryna guard these mfrs today lmaooo. #michaeljordan#jordan#lebron#nba
LeBron is the ONLY player in NBA History to win 4 MVPs in 5 yrs (since the merger) He won all 4 of his MVPs by the age of 28.
And then the league put a cap on him to protect you know who. 🤫
Paige doesn’t get crap for 7 TOs bc it’s anomaly. In 2024 Caitlin shattered WNBA rec for turnovers. In 2026, she has 2nd highest ever. By a lot.
Why note? Bc Clark fans who ❤️ posting 500 graphics a day on her “points created” wonder why she ranks so low in Win Shares (#18) & why she is not Top-10 ranked as player in virtually every respected Combo stat. It’s bc they also include the stats that lead to points created for the other team —whether it be via turnovers, or pourous defense. Those points count too in a game.
The 2nd reason is Paige’s fan base is chill, and they don’t say Paige is better than A’ja Wilson & every other player in WNBA history.
