Former NBA player Michael Beasley recently came up with a clear view on the "GOAT battle" when he was a guest on the Moshe Popack podcast - in his opinion, LeBron James has long surpassed Michael Jordan to become the greatest basketball player of all time.

"LeBron has surpassed Jordan 100%. "My reason is actually very simple: we are all discussing his scoring record, his long career, but about Jordan, people never mention his failure, how many times he lost in the playoffs, nor do they talk about his team with Rodman, who has won two championships."

Beasley continued to add: "I have no disrespect to Jordan, he is a passerby. But the problem is that he has been packaged, and we have witnessed all the highlights and troughs of LeBron. He grew up in the spotlight, and we watched him from the pride of heaven to today, never really 'sinking', and always wandering around the peak line. This continuous excellence itself is the strongest argument."

Beasley also emphasized that if you don't look at the player's name at all, but only look at the data and resume, LeBron's all-round attribute can enter the top of history in five positions 5:

"You can list the data of all NBA players in history on the same board, don't add names, just look at the data - and then let everyone choose the strongest point guard, the strongest point guard, the strongest small front, the big front, and the center. LeBron's data will squeeze into the top five in every position. He is a data ceiling in five positions."

Beasley also mentioned that in addition to his identity as a player, LeBron also plays the role of "coach" and "general manager". The tactical systems of many teams are designed around him in a sense. His influence is not only reflected in scoring on the field, but also in his comprehensive control of the team's culture, staffing and game rhythm.

"While taking on everything, he also has to take care of his son, and he can average 25.8 points per game. How can you disrespect such a person?"

mentioned Beasley and LeBron. The author recalled an interesting story. After LeBron joined the Heat, he was always beaten by Beasley in the team singles.
