The Lakers superstar LeBron James continues to earn NBA adepts to side with him on the GOAT debate

LeBron James has his place in the history of the NBA locked as one of the greatest of all time, but many believe he already is number one, even over Michael Jordan, who continues to be the universally acclaimed GOAT.

An NBA champion, now former player, Jason "white chocolate" Williams had a bold and interesting take on why LeBron James is different than Michael Jordan and deserves the title of the greatest in the NBA over the Chicago Bulls legend.

“LeBron is the best player I’ve ever played against - he could lead the league in all 5 categories if he wanted to, I don’t think MJ could’ve done that” Said Williams.

Jason also added that in the MJ era, the Bulls legend only had to go against one player to get to the rim, reason why LeBron James prefers to pass the ball to the best-positioned teammate as the rim is usually protected for at least 3 to 4 players in this basketball era.

Jason Williams believes that LeBron James makes his teammates better

"I think LeBron is the best because he just makes everybody around him so much better, where it gets back to the point where, well, Jordan won the game right? But my point, like LeBron at the end of the game he's got the last second shot and he penetrates or whatever and he's got three guys on him and he passes the ball right, that's what you're supposed to do." Said Jason Williams.
