Fat Joe thinks Michael Jordan is still the man to beat LeBron James

Fat Joe just voted in the long-running GOAT debate between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Of course, it’s a difficult question but still an interesting answer for millions of NBA fans. Additionally, Complex sat down with the New York MC for a panel discussion during the NBA Celebrity All-Star Game. While LeBron just became the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, Joey Crack remains true to Jordan’s legacy in the game. Even though he made his opinion clear, he still showed a lot of affection for the current Laker.

“MJ’s the GOAT,” the “Lean Back” star proclaimed on the red carpet of the big game. “We love LeBron. LeBron is the best at this point. We actually love LeBron. We love him to death, but MJ is the GOAT. However, Complex asked other celebrities like Cordae who had a different opinion. “I wasn’t alive when MJ played,” the North Carolina rapper explained. “So I can only speak to what I saw and LeBron did the damn thing.” Even LeBron himself agrees. Of course, Joe is one of the biggest Air Jordan collectors in rap music, so his actions come as no surprise.

Meanwhile, other hip-hop figures congratulated James for surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the league’s all-time leading scorer. For example, Jay-Z gave LeBron flowers in a tribute video broadcast by TNT . Arguably the greatest rapper of all time recognized not only the NBA star’s 20-year career, but also his unique legend. “You know, being able to perform at a high level over a long period of time, that’s what excellence is,” commented Hov. “Long after you’re gone, people still look at your name. This is greatness. There aren’t many people you can compare to LeBron. 19-time All-Star, a remarkable feat. All-time goalscorer. I mean, what can you say?

“I’ve known LeBron since he was in high school,” he continued. “We talk a lot about his greatness. We think this guy is extremely special. He has been through many iterations of the game and in each era he has been the best. The chosen one, that’s all.
