Charles Barkley Will Slap Anyone Who Says LeBron Is Equal To Michael Jordan
Thanks to Netflix and ESPN’s joint production ‘The Last Dance’, the never-ending ‘greatest of all time’ debate has re-gained plenty of heat.
While Charles Barkley never ranks his top 5, it has always remained the same – Michael Jordan, Oscar Robertson, Bill Russell, Kareem Abdul-Jabaar and Wilt Chamberlain, he previously went one step further. Barkley has made it clear, that he believes LeBron James isn’t on the same level as Michael Jordan and threatened to slap everyone who says LeBron James is as good as Michael Jordan.
“Any media person that I see in person for the rest of my life who try to tell me that LeBron James is as good as Michael Jordan… I’m just going to slap the hell out of them right on the spot. Right on the spot. No questions asked.
The next person who walks up to me and says ‘LeBron James, he was amazing. As good as Michael Jordan’ or ‘competes like Michael Jordan,’ I’m just going to slap the hell out of you right on the spot, and I’m going to take my chances with the judicial system.”
