Part 4/12:
Tensions escalated when discussions veered into the debate of who stands above the other, Michael Jordan or LeBron James. Smith highlighted that Jordan's unmatched accolades, such as being the only player to lead the league in scoring, win MVP, and excel defensively simultaneously, set him apart in discussions of greatness. He noted that while LeBron has echoed the phrase of being the "greatest of all time," Jordan refrained from such declarations, allowing his performance to speak for itself.
