Michael Jordan Will “Never” Do One Thing Which LeBron James Could Consider Attempting, Claims Stephen A. Smith

Michael Jordan and LeBron James comparisons have been going on for the longest time. James even became the only player to breach the 40,000 points mark yet many don’t consider him above Jordan. Yet according to Stephen A. Smith, LeBron might consider an opportunity that MJ would “never” do. An infamous opponent of the Chicago Bulls legend also agrees with Smith.

Ever since The Roast of Tom Brady Show was aired, people have been eagerly awaiting the next roast. Some are specifically waiting for their beloved sports personalities to be the next guest. And since the 61-year-old is considered the GOAT of the NBA by many, people are interested if he would partake in such an event.

The video on the AP Archive YouTube channel, where Smith shared his take on who should be roasted next. Smith named actor, singer, and comedian as the best guest. “I think Jamie Foxx would be a good one to roast because who knows what kind of ammunition he gives you.” Later in terms of Sports celebrities, he said “In terms of a sports figure, I think it would be LeBron.”

The ESPN analyst also said why Aaron Rodgers won’t be a nice fit. “No, because it’s easy… It’s like with Tom Brady I mean he’s the golden boy. With Aaron Rodgers, even though I love him a lot of people don’t. And so because of that some people will find it funny. Some people would be intentionally cruel. “

Brady too realized the cruelty of roast later on, when he saw his kids offended through the roast. “… I didn’t like the way that affected my kids,” Tom Brady told Fred Taylor on The Pivot Podcast. And the former Indiana Pacers legend too doesn’t think MJ would do a roast.

Reggie Miller on why Michael Jordan won’t agree to a roast

During his recent appearance for The Dan Patrick Show, Miller was asked whether a roast show with the Bulls legend is possible. In response, Miller said, “Absolutely not there’s no way.”

Revealing the reason behind it, the 58-year-old said, “There’s more of a mystique about MJ… there’s no way for three hours people taking shots.” Indeed, there is a mystique about MJ. He or his wife Yvette Prieto mostly spend their time away from the camera. The only time they are captured is during public events which are very rare. So it is difficult to imagine why ‘His Airness’ would agree to a roast. But there could be a possibility where LeBron James agrees to a roast.

Considering he has still not decided on his next season endeavors, and with the Los Angeles Lakers struggling to find a new coach. We might be in for a treat with a lot of rumors and possibly backstage politics. Who knows we might also see a documentary ‘The Dynasty: New England Patriots’ featuring ‘King James’ similar to Tom Brady.
