How Michael Jordan & LeBron James Differ As TEAMMATES | Brendan Haywood Breaks The GOATs Down 

This was probably the first time that I have ever heard anyone compare Jordan and Bron without trying to make one sound better than the other. Very refreshing to hear Brandon’s opinion

That “absolutely not” is hilarious

SO nice to hear the hosts letting the guest talk!!

I’m just glad he confirmed 14 flat is Gil’s only play LMAO

When MJ came out of retirement to the Wizards, he had at least a couple hundred million in the bank and was considered the GOAT..yet he treated the game with the same love and commitment he had when he was 25yrs old

Haywood was an underrated role player in the Mavs 2011 Championship team. Such a luxury for Dallas to have two starting caliber Centers.

How do ppl not find real players speaking about their real life experiences not more entertaining than media personalities 😮

I think that was when Blatt tried to make LeBron the inbounder on the last shot 😅

Both players coach their team-mates. Their styles are different, but both are effective.

To scratch a play that your own coach drew up, take the clipboard, then draw up your own play, with you taking the last shot to win the game, and then perfectly executing it, is simply.... SICK!🤮

crazy how even today, 30 years later, we all still love to hear MJ stories… he was a myth and a legend

Literally this topic came up not too long ago on Twitter with Lebron drawing up his own play. Gonna have to use this clip.

Played 82 games that last season. They dont make em like that no more.

"why i beat you here" legends just think differently or it's just MJ being super competitive at everything 😂

perfect explanation of the difference between the two players.

All Gil’s old teammates know about that 1-4 flat lmfao

" I was kicking it with u" lol 😂

This was an excellent clip. Very objective and honest. I view LeBron and Jordan as just two great players from in different generations who did things their own way. Kobe was great but he was more like Jordan. LeBron wanted to be like himself as a player. People that say he isn't aggressive enough don't understand basketball. He is going to make the right basketball play every time and not just rely on his talent. Jordan had unbelievable mental toughness. That's what I think about Jordan.

Used to wonder why/how blatt got fired so quickly and with a winning record.

He asked how they differed, he gave his experiences and summary, and MFs are still like to hell with what the guy who actually lived it, said 🤣 That's just hatred by folks. You can't even logically substantiate it.

Lebron is low key the GM too. We call him "Le GM"

Love this insider stuff

Great description on the subtle differences between to great ball players. Oh and Lebron isn't the first player to draw up his own game winning shot during time out. Larry Bird used to draw up his plays mentally and then tell Cooper or Domi iwue or Barkley whoever was guarding him. I miss these legends but life goes not backwards.

Great interview!

JR got him back with his own play a few years later though 😂😂😂

I had no idea he played with a 40 year old Michael in Washington At that time he had his championship rings and mvps but mike went to work and it was all for the love of the game of basketball

Needed this interview!!!! Both goats in their own perspective 💯💯💯

Killer instinct? I think Lebron played all 72 games ONE season! MJ never sat out. An injury during his 2nd year made him miss like 60 games. But he FORCED the team to let him play the rest.

Kobe woulda been in the gym at 4am , mike late

I've never heard that LeBron story so now I'm like "wow!!!" If that ain't a "killer instinct" then idk what you'd call that!?

That was a good interview

This would of been a good topic if undisputed was still on 😂😂 can hear Shannon now

Great way to put it out there when he said LeBron is “passive aggressive, see if it’ll work itself out, massage the situation.” No doubt LeBron has great hoop IQ in passing to an wide open teammate for highest % shot or taking it into the hole as a freight train. Knowing damned well you can’t win all games since it may work or may not as it all comes down to if the basket gets scored or not while also depending if the opposing team’s defense works in favor or not.

I can't see LeBron ever getting out of shape

amazing stories

Fantastic stories and props to the hosts for letting Brendan speak without interrupting

"I would rather die then do that play." "Don't you think that's a little harsh? It's a perfectly fine play."

The great Michael Jordan highlights look like art work one and only goat

5:41 yo the sound he made erasing the board was the last straw 😂😂🤣

Amongst all the stories, the crazy stats, the awards... The Dude retired in his prime... If he wouldn't have, he would have had 8 championships. The 2 - 3 peats were with 2 different teams! Only Scottie was in common with the 2 teams! That is insane! Even his Wizards stint... Gone for 3 years... Known for his crazy athleticism... unlike Lebron, Jordan's hops and quickness were basically gone by that time for MJ. He adjusts his game... not exactly the same guy, but if you look at his stats, even though a good portion of those 2 years he was playing injured, his stats are pretty close to Kobe's lifetime stats... Check it out! Dude was unreal

The problem to me isn't that LeBron doesn't have the killer instinct. It is that it isn't always on like MJ, Kobe, and Bird. LeBron's 2012 game 6 against the Celtics is as cold blooded as you can get. I'd put that game up against anyone else's. But then he has games where he just seems too passive. Too much waiting for the game to open up and come to him. If he played like he did during that Celtics game every game then I don't think there would even be a GOAT debate. But LeBron has left too much in the tank and not enough on the floor over the years.

Absolutely not 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

"Absolutely Not!" 😂😂😂

This was gold!

J.R. was carrying them that game...

This is what NBA fans really don't want to hear. Blows my mind. They only want to hear the first half.

who got the link to that bron game winner?

I do remember that game my boy bron was playing bad then came clutch in the end

Those basketball players are so soft!!! So basically training is at 11am and you are a showing up at 10am? You should be there at 8am. Luke a regular job. Work out, stretching, individual training, shooting and then start team training, massage and you should be home by 1h30pm the latest. It’s still only 1/2 day of work for us mère mortal.

As much as i dont like most of Skips takes about Lebron, he even said that Lebron does has killer mentality, only when he's playing angry while MJ & Kobe killer mentality just always on.

I was hoping to hear Haywood talk about their Carolina connection

That shit is funny bc it's relatable. Every ball player at one point has been in the huddle & wanted to do that but instead their just quiet until the "bring it in...**team name** on 3* 😂

Sad thing about it the cavs was 33-13 and lebron got blatt fired behind it

Lol so his coach drew up a play for their shooting guard and not him… simple as that.

That’s so hard 🔥🔥

If that last story would’ve been about Jordan there would’ve been a never-ending media circle jerk.

So i hope Skip Bayless sees this. BH played with both

Bron is on these speciality Tom Brady diets while Jordan was smoking cigars and gambling until the wee hours of the night and still dropping 40 on you!

This is what i mean. The only ppl who should make comments is someone that been around both. 2 different beasts from different eras always in GOAT Debate

He walked in that locker room like, “Y’all ready to win like the Bulls❓⁉️ What finger your ring going on❓❓⁉️🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿”

Brendan Heywood....ur capping. That was 1 time Bron took over. Anybody who has watched both know Bron is no where close to the killer MJ is. No fam...don't care how you try to make it look pretty...Bron is not clutch.

People need to do important things

nice interview... MJ teammate.. i love this interview

People criticize Bron for not playing "82 games" in a season like he hasn't made deep playoff runs damn near every season of his career. The man has played an additional 282 games in the postseason. Bron play 100 games a season injured or not

Bron wanted the shot cause it was a tie game. lol

Wow about LeBron drawing up that play. I remember that game. It worked to perfection.

All you have to do is be a casual observer of the league (and old enough to have watched Jordan) to know how different they are as teammates

*Let's solve this debate with one SIMPLE question: Game 7, who you taking, Lebron... or MJ? Yea. Exactly.*

Their are different levels to this Basketball MJ and Kobe left it all on the line, Bron was shooting the Basketball to Ghost when the Lakers was playing the Nuggets and then when they played the Celtics this last year and he wanted the foul but then the ref didn’t see that either but he acted wired, You can’t depend on the Referee to bail you out every time just saying

I tell you makes me respect MJ even more to be who he is but yet still put forth that kind of work ethic.

Y’all gotta work on this audio cuz damn

👑🐐

This “They Both Wanted to Win” Phrase is so Tiring, everyone Wants to win 😂.. Also who is the Player that had the bad game after partying with Jordan? I’ll say stackhouse

Besides T Lue has anybody played/coached with Mj Kobe and LeBron?

🔥🔥🔥🔥

I personally prefer MJ to LeBron. I do however find it funny that most people in real life would hate working with or dealing with someone like MJ/Kobe. I personally enjoy aggressive in your face style, but I've seen so called Kobe fans cry under pressure at work or in a team setting when someone challenges them. LeBron's style isn't my type, I prefer the asshole personality, but most people in life prefer Lebron's style and don't want to admit it.

Love this! LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can we get the same response on the content we want to watch as opposed to how quick the commercials play! Commercials play instant

Gil only had one play lolol..... Hibachi that play shot that won't pass and call everybody sorry 😂

I think we should start comparing Labron to Magic more so than Jordan. It’s Kobe-Jordan and Labron-Magic in my OPINION.

I went to high school with Brendan! It’s funny to see him talk the way he talks. He wasn’t like that in school and was far from a star. He was just 7ft. I’m older, so he got a lot better after I graduated. I went to see him play in the championship game for our high school at the Dean Dome! Shout out to him and the Dudley Panthers!

Different day and time. If a player today addressed their teammates performance or lack thereof .... 25 hour memes and news cycle. Same "sensitive" loved it from MJ. No one cared how Kerr felt about being punched or its effect on the team (vs Dray/Poole).

Any one who is not old enough to see both players play in there prime really should not even say who is better Jordan will to win puts him on top And may u also add in it was a different nba more physical than today

Dude.... No matter what.. Bron doesn't have a killer instinct... Dude. You have to have it all the time... Not just one moment... What about the play against GS when he told Kyrie to take the last shot.... That's what I thought.. Stop the bs

Does anybody notice Gilbert’s fake laugh about the killer gen situation 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️😂😂

This is gold

That’s one time vs how many of those moments he ran from

Haywood gotta speak into the mic

Bron was drawing up his own game winning shots. He's up there with all the killers. All of you skip Bayless fans need to watch more ball

The passive-aggressive comment simply summed up everything😂

Notice how he didn't ask him about the Lebron, Jordan debate? I've seen Hayward call Lebron his🐐

The only people that don't think lebron Top 3 or is clutch. Is either Jordan fans or Kobe fans. Anyone with common sense knows he's a top 3 player, and he's clutch. And I think jordan the GOAT. But the truth is the truth.

My spirit granny: "If u practice wrong/u play wrong" thru a discount seance.

Lmao funny enough I first heard this bron story from skip bayless 💀

The difference is MJ had a FATHER LBJ had his mom.

Let's set it straight Jordan is in a class all by himself I don't care no one can compare to him. When Jordan retired I stopped watching NBA, love Mike he's still making billions off Nike. Just like wilt Mike set the bar

Love the MANY MJ stories that are out there. Proves how different he was 🐐. Not to hate on LeBron, but he’s only got that one story circulating around social media and has fans thinking his basketball IQ is high, yet has failed more than succeeded. Nonetheless, he had a great career.

The fact is bron doesn’t do it enough

MJ owned every game win or lose vs Lebron put his teamates under the bus when lossing.. The walk off king left the building

😂 very diplomatic. Even Lebronze knows he's scared of that moment. Thats why he's known as 4th Quarter Sue Storm. 4 points here, 2 points there, in 4th quarters of critical playoff games. Lebronze😂😂😂
