Mike Brown on LeBron James: I don’t know if there’s a better playmaker or passer than LeBron"

0

Mike Brown: This is a huge debate, and everyone tries to throw Kobe Bryant in there. I’m one of the few that coached both during regular-season and playoff games. The one thing that stands out about all three guys (including LeBron James and Michael Jordan) is their competitive spirit, which is off the charts. Not only those three guys but if I lumped all the great players I’ve been fortunate to be around, you start throwing in Stephen Curry and Draymond (Green). Competitive spirit is one thing they all have. They all have a burning desire to not only be better in their craft individually but collectively they want to show they can carry a team and bring others along with them in that department. When it comes to LeBron and Michael, at the end of the day, it depends on what you want. I don’t know if there’s a better playmaker or passer than LeBron. He’s unbelievable. He can help connect any team because of his unselfish nature. He plays basketball the right way.

More on this storyline

Between “Beckham,” “Quarterback” and the nationally captivating “The Last Dance,” we are clearly living in our peak sports docuseries era. And now four-time, NBA champion LeBron James and hall of famers Peyton Manning have combined with the Obamas’ production company to contribute their own sports series centered around the NBA, Variety has confirmed. James’ SpringHill Company (which he started with business partner Maverick Carter) will join Manning’s production company Omaha Productions and the Obamas’ Higher Ground. The series will divide up each episode following various NBA athletes as they live their lives, similar to the Netflix docuseries “Quarterback,” which followed three NFL quarterbacks during the 2022-2023 football season. -via Variety.com / October 24, 2023
In the meantime, James’ already untouchable status as one of the greatest ever to play only continues to rise — among his peers if not among the general public. “Some guys might say he is No. 2, but other guys like me, I say he is No. 1, and he’s still going,” said Giannis Antetokounmpo, putting it plainly that he believes James is the best NBA player ever, ahead of Michael Jordan. -via The Athletic / October 23, 2023
