A former Los Angeles Lakers rival explains why he doesn't believe LeBron James can be considered the NBA's GOAT.
Conversations about who the greatest player in NBA history is often come down to two players — Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Former NBA player Mario Elie, who won three NBA championships with the Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs, believes James is not the GOAT because he has played in an era when the best players team up with each other.. “No, I wanna beat you. I wanna beat you. LeBron, you say you the G.O.A.T.
James has certainly played alongside some great players including Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love, and Chris Bosh, but that in itself doesn't necessarily diminish his accomplishments. After all, Jordan played alongside two Basketball Hall of Famers in Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman, who were pivotal pieces in James winning six NBA championships.
