Michael Jordan's longtime agent accuses LeBron James of cherry-picking teams to win championships

Ric Bucher shares his thoughts on where LeBron James should play next season and what team makes the most sense for the NBA superstar moving forward.

The NBA’s greatest-player-of-all-time debate has raged on as LeBron James has continued to excel in the twilight of his NBA career. 

Some fans say the NBA’s best-ever is Michael Jordan, the fierce competitor who won six titles in eight seasons. Other fans say it is James, a four-time champion and the league’s all-time leading scorer. 

Jordan’s longtime agent, David Falk, added fuel to the fire that is the "G.O.A.T" debate.

Falk listed Jordan as his best-ever but, shockingly, did not have James as his second-best ever, and took a swipe at the current Los Angeles Lakers star. 

The agent said his next-best player after Jordan is either Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Kobe Bryant.

Falk said James would "probably" land in his top 10 best players ever.
