LeBron James and Michael Jordan are two of the greatest players to ever play the game of basketball — that much is a fact. But when it comes to deciding who is better, that may be a debate that never gets resolved.
With Michael Jordan’s documentary set to release in a few days, the conversation has only heated up.
In an interview with Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson, former NBA star Brandon Robinson insisted that LeBron doesn’t belong in the same conversation as Jordan when it comes to the GOAT talk.
LeBron James can't be compared to Michael Jordan says Stephon Marbury: https://t.co/jgVO7uoq9y
"I don’t know why Jordan’s name is mentioned in the same conversation sometimes. I’ll clear that up real quick…there’s really no need to talk about that." pic.twitter.com/Oygy3Y2LxO

Marbury is a staunch Jordan supporter, much to the delight of Mr. Bayless.
Stephon Marbury tells Brandon Robinson that LeBron doesn't even belong in the same conversation with Jordan, that "Jordan is NOT from Earth." Marbury says Kobe should be ranked above LeBron but that Jordan was in a whole 'nother world. TRUTH.

When it comes to Championships and MVPs, Jordan clearly has the upper hand. Over the course of NBA history, MJ has had more success than anyone else and dominated at a level never before seen.
LeBron has scored more points and has better stats when it comes to rebounding and assists. He is better at getting his teammates involved and still has time to catch up to him in other ways.
But, in the end, Jordan’s efficiency, impact on the game, and sheer dominance on both ends of the floor usually earns him the nod atop the All-Time list.
