With his amazing Olympic campaign in Paris , LeBron James has, according to some, taken another step towards becoming the GOAT of basketball.
WWE legend and sports fan Randy Orton spoke about the duel for history between the King and Michael Jordan.
LeBron James has become a legend in the sport after his wonderful Olympic campaign.
At 39, and after a 12-year absence from the national team, he led Team USA to another gold medal in Paris.
With 14.5 points, 8.5 assists and 7.8 rebounds on average, he deservedly earned the title of MVP of the competition.
For comparison, at the same age, Michael Jordan was finishing his second season with the Wizards, without the playoffs, and especially without the slightest hope of representing his country on the international stage.
Randy Orton Gets Angry at LeBron James
Finally, it will take more than that to convince WWE superstar Randy Orton.
During a show for his employer’s YouTube channel, the “Legend Killer” was asked about the notion of GOAT in high-level sport.
And when the debate between the King and MJ was mentioned, his instant reaction surprised a lot of people.
Cody Rhodes: There’s a conversation going around right now about the GOAT. The greatest athlete of all time. We talk about John Cena that way, but it’s in every sport. LeBron James, Michael Jordan… People talk about stats.
Randy Orton: LeBron, go f*** himself
It’s hard to know why, but Randy Orton seems to have a real hatred for LeBron James, who he clearly doesn’t consider worthy of a spot in the race for the GOAT title.
Born in 1980, he grew up following Michael Jordan’s exploits with the Bulls, which must condition his perception. In any case, the fans don’t understand him.
Randy knows nothing about basketball.
Randy Orton is an absolute legend in his field, so he knows what it means to be a GOAT. And according to him, LeBron James wouldn’t have what it takes to challenge Michael Jordan at that level.
