Draymond Green Names NBA GOAT Between LeBron James, Michael Jordan Without Hesitation

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green recently shared his perspective on the long-standing debate about the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) in basketball, specifically choosing between Michael Jordan and LeBron James during an appearance on influencer Kai Cenat's stream.

Green argued that LeBron James deserves the GOAT title because he has won championships with what he considers less talented teammates, such as JR Smith and Matthew Dellavedova, whom Green described negatively but respectfully. He contrasted this with Michael Jordan, stating that Jordan had stronger support from players like Scottie Pippen and Steve Kerr, whom Green acknowledged as a good NBA player but implied that Jordan's overall team was superior.

Additionally, Green highlighted that LeBron's ability to elevate lesser-known or struggling players, like convincing others not to give up on JR Smith, demonstrates his unique leadership and winning capability, which he believes Jordan lacked in similar situations. The context of Green's relationship with LeBron was noted, as they have faced each other multiple times in the NBA Finals on opposing teams, adding depth to his insights.
