LeBron James' success has given him access to be compared to the living NBA legend Michael Jackson. James admitted that MJ inspires him. In fact, he is chasing Jordan's ghost. However, is James starting a feud between him and Jordan? Reports have it that James said MJ received too much credits for Chicago Bulls championship.
Parent Herald previously reported that LeBron James wants to surpass Michael Jordan. After signing a $100 million three-year deal with Cleveland Cavaliers, many believe that James already surpassed the NBA legend.
According to Rolling Stone, LeBron James has already caught up with Michael Jordan. James will be the highest-paid player in the NBA in a single season in 2017-18 when his salary exceeds $33 million. The title currently belongs to Jordan's.
Meanwhile, according to Uproxx, LeBron James reacted to the credits people are giving to Michael Jordan relative to Chicago Bulls championships. James explained that the victory was not all about Jordan because he played alongside other Bulls members like Scottie Pippen.
It sounds intriguing why LeBron James is saying this, especially at this moment when he is often compared to Michael Jordan. However, other NBA fans don't take this against the current NBA MVP.
Perhaps, LeBron James just wants to recognize the other Chicago Bulls' players who are as significant as Michael Jordan in winning the six NBA titles for Bulls. Scottie Pippen is one of the best NBA players in the history and their fellow teammates and Hall-of-Famer Dennis Rodman is another.
We know that LeBron James has a point but we just don't understand why he has to say it at this time. However, aside from chasing Michael Jordan's success on the basketball court, James is also following MJ's track in the NBA league. According to Fox 8, LeBron James is planning to own an NBA team and at the time, the only NBA player who did it is Michael Jordan.
