Renowned NBA Trainer Picks LeBron James Over Michael Jordan

Renowned NBA trainer Chris Brickley chimed in on one of the NBA’s hottest debates.

The famous skills coach took Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James over Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan in a recent Instagram Stories Q&A session.

James, 35, is considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time.

Yet, the four-time MVP is attempting to ascend to the top of the mountain before his career concludes. Convincing the general public he is better than Jordan will require a few more monumental accomplishments.

Jordan, 57, posted career averages of 30.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. Furthermore, he captured six championships in the six NBA Finals that he attended.

On the other hand, James is averaging 27.1 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game over the course of his career. However, he has won just three championships despite going to the NBA Finals nine times.

Perhaps becoming the all-time leader in scoring and acquiring more championships will cement James’ quest for G.O.A.T. status.
