Shannon disagrees with Shaq about nobody being close to Michael Jordan's level | NBA | UNDISPUTED

Following the release of the MJ's documentary 'The Last Dance,' Shaq was recently quoted saying that 'Michael Jordan is the greatest by far. He's a ten, there's a lot of sevens or eights around there, but no nines or tens.' Hear why Shannon Sharpe disagrees with Shaq and believes that he's actually doing a disservice to himself.

I agree. The issue is the Lebronetarians always choose to first to discredit Jordans accomplishments as opposed to highlighting LeBron's. They couldn't try and win the goat debate using stats, accomplishments, and records cuz Jordan had LeBron beat in 90% of every career avg stat. And still has the all-time record for most of them. LBJ being considered one of the 3 greatest in the history of the game is not a slight.... Even the other top 10 acknowledge that MJ is BY FAR the greatest of all time because they don't need some ranking to bolster their egos. The comments that LeBron makes about being the greatest of all time is just him overcompensating for his shortcomings in regards to MJ.

Totally agree with Shaq! Everyone can be easily placed in the Mt Rushmore conversation but MJ is on top of Mt Everest all by himself. It's been how many years since MJ played in the NBA and everyone still tunes in when Media shows anything MJ related. It just proves how much impact he had on the NBA.

@@wizkid3295 I sympathise with your view WIZ KID but I think that there is more separation between MJ🐐 and the rest. I think that they can all fight out the places behind MJ. Its subjective. Its difficult to choose between generations, especially, with great players who have never met on court? You just have to use your own judgement. But LE BRON had no right to crown himself king? Only their PEERS and the PUBLIC can do that. Crowning by social media. There was no social media when MJ played and yet, the World knew he was the special one.

[@hershelpogue1745]

Everytime watch Shannon Sharpe defers to something else when the arguments are between the greatest of all times Michael Jordan, and a loser in LeBron James keeps being the lowest standards to ever be compared to mi Jordan. Using longevity and his easy assists numbers and rebounds, while he stat padding all of these numbers yo try and use this as being greater than what Michael Jordan has done in a shorter time. His time as a player and the sheer amount of all the things Michael Jordan has done in such a little time set's him apart from all others in the game of basketball. At least Kobe made an attempt at doing what Michael Jordan achieved. LeBron James has never followed in the footsteps of Michael Jordan, and is not able to wear his shoes, or get near them, while Kobe came close to wearing Michael Jordan's shoes. All the media fan boys try to beat Michael Jordan legacy which no other players are even close.

When will everyone understand that when you're speaking about totality of accomplishments, Michael Jordan is the greatest. How can you look at everything he accomplished in just a total of "15 seasons" and not recognize him as the goat? He accomplished the most in the least amount of time. 🐐

[@ericdudley4169]

Our Shannon has to move those legs real fast ice skating up hill like that... He’s not getting anywhere, but you have to admire his effort - hands flailing and all... It would have been cool if he gave it up at long last though...

[@Jatycre]

Shannon, my man, when this many all time greats have come forward and said “Jordan is the GOAT, and he has no equal”, it’s time for you just cut your losses, and admit you’ve been wrong. Lebron is an absolutely exceptional talent, but he doesn’t touch Jordan. Jordan was a basketball phenom, with no equal. The only ones who really even try to say Michael isn’t the GOAT, are people with sour grapes, like Isiah and Laimbeer, or Lebron/Kobe fanboys that weren’t around to see Jordan do his thing. Anyone else who is objective, particularly those who actually played with Jordan, freely say he was unquestionably the best ever.

[@barakaalecnathaniel3716]

Jatycre not true..Jordan lebron are equals i havent seen somethings different from Jordan

[@Jatycre]

Baraka Alec Nathaniel They are absolutely not equals. You want something different? How about the times Lebron has absolutely collapsed and shrunk in NBA finals. In 2011 for example, Lebron absolutely shriveled up and died. The worst part of that? The Mavs were HEAVY underdogs in those games. They should have NEVER beat the super team Heat with Lebron, Wade, and Bosh. They did though, because in several key games in that series, Lebron just disappeared on his team. That NEVER happened to Jordan. He was never in a finals series he didn’t win, and he never let a finals series go over 6 games.

[@lightningjuniorsuper]

Jatycre and yet that Mav team was still a very good team they played team ball more than the heat who were doing my turn then ur turn that year

[@Jatycre]

lightningjuniorsuper No question, that Mav team was great. They played selfless ball (like you said), and while Lebron was collapsing, they capitalized on it, and took a chip that virtually no one expected them to. My whole point was not to bash the Mavs, but to illustrate the weaknesses Lebron has that Jordan never did.
