A Minor League Baseball team made an interesting point about the LeBron versus Michael Jordan debate. The Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, put up a billboard trying to recruit LeBron to play for them.
If LeBron ever wants to catch MJ’s basketball ghost, he needs to spend a year playing in the minors. That’s a valid point. He would then comeback wearing 45 and go on another run at multiple rings.
Our Pitch:
If @KingJames really wants to catch MJ, he needs to spend a season in Minor League Baseball.

At this point it would be the only way LeBron could erase the fact that he isn’t undefeated in The Finals.
If basketball writers tell LeBron he would surpass Jordan by playing Minor League Baseball, he would do it without hesitation.
Mmmmmm. Stats. https://t.co/rqeAInNKkx
