Michael Jordan: There’s One Player I’m Not Sure I Could Beat

Ever since the airing of ESPN Films and Netflix’s joint production ‘The Last Dance’, a 10-part documentary about Michael Jordan and the 1990s Chicago Bulls, the basketball world has re-opened the GOAT debate, and people are running wild.

Many ask themselves if a prime Michael Jordan could beat LeBron James or Kobe Bryant in a one-on-one match?

Turns out Michael Jordan believes he would have beaten LeBron James, and every other player, in a game of one-on-one when he was in his prime, but he’s not sure about Kobe Bryant.

“I don’t think I would lose,” Jordan says in the video, before smiling and adding, “other than to Kobe Bryant, because he steals all of my moves.”
