En full debate on who is the best player of all time, Michael Jordan o LeBron JamesSome voices were missing to speak to try to tip the balance to one side or the other. One of the last to give his opinion was Shawn Kemp, who suffered in his flesh the best Jordan in the 1996 NBA Finals, and that he opts for the Bulls player.
According to ‘Reign Man’, as Kemp was known in his time as a player, what sets Jordan apart of the rest of the competitors for the throne of history are their desire for victory. For Kemp Jordan it is the big reason for the success of the Chicago Bulls and their six rings, although he also gives some credit to Scottie Pippen.
“If I had to choose I would go for Michael Jordan. I think LeBron James is doing great, but all Jordan was doing was winning. There are players like me, who despite being good have never won a ring. Then there are also players who have won rings, who are good, but who had a good team around them, “Kemp said on the Dab Roast podcast.
“So I look at Michael Jordan, he played for the Bulls and it’s true he had Scottie Pippen, but If Michael hadn’t been there, the Bulls wouldn’t have won the championship. It all came for Michael “, Kemp sentenced to settle the debate between Jordan and LeBron.
