“Michael Jordan and LeBron James are tied at the top”

Right now, the debate is burning lips, so as soon as a specialist receives an orange ball personality, they ask them for themselves who the GOAT is. This is what Jalen (Rose) & Jacoby did on their show where Nick Nurse was the guest. For him, it is impossible to decide between Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

You won’t get me with this Jalen question. Michael and LeBron are tied at the top. In my day, Michael Jordan was the best, but guys, now I’ve played LeBron enough to know that, he’s the best too. They are two of the very best players. Every time I see LeBron I thank him for everything he has done in this league. Obviously, I do the same every time I see Jordan, because we’re all happy and lucky to have been a part of what they created. ” Nick Nurse

While before being head coach, Nick Nurse was an assistant to the Raptors, he had many times the opportunity to see the King at work, regularly the hangman of the Canadiens. If anyone is well aware of the level the King can reach, it is Nurse.

It’s hard to prepare to play LeBron because you have to come up with a lot of different options. You don’t just have to have a plan A and a plan B, you have to go all the way to E and F and maybe even G with it. You end up using them all because he understands them all thanks to his vision, his size, his passes, which makes him very difficult to defend. I always say it: great players make everyone around them better and that’s exactly what he does. ” Nick Nurse

On what we saw of his season at the Lakers, Nick Nurse is not wrong about the quadruple MVP. But now that LeBron is in the West, the Raptors tactician will at least have to take his Raptors to the Finals, if he is to get a chance to get his revenge.

To have the opinion of 6th man in the GOAT debate this is where it happens.
