“I’m very vocal on this. I think LeBron is the best player who has ever played the game,” said the former Pistons Bad Boy Tuesday on ESPN’s First Take. “He’s 6-foot-8, 285 pounds, runs like the wind, jumps out of the gym. At the end of the day, I firmly believe he’s the best basketball player in the history of the game.”
“More importantly, when (LeBron) came in the league from Day 1, he knew how to involve his teammates to win,” Laimbeer said. “That’s something Jordan had to learn for a long time,” he added.
“Now if you go by championships, obviously Michael Jordan has more championships. But I think LeBron in any generation would be doing what he’s doing right now all these years.”
“Stop being jealous,” said the five-time All-Star. “He took it to you, Bill. I know you all didn’t like it. You probably got dunked on 5, 6, 7, 8 times.”
The Pistons are still bitter MJ ended their reign.
The Bad Boys were the poorest sports in the history of sports.
