Allen Iverson: LeBron James is ‘The One’ in GOAT debate

Everyone seems to have an opinion on who the greatest NBA players of all-time are.

Many still seem to think it’s former Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan, but a growing number of observers are casting their vote for LeBron James.

One of them is former NBA star Allen Iverson, who professed his love for Jordan but seemed to give James the nod as the GOAT, at least in his mind.

Via Lakers Nation:

“As much as I love Jordan, LeBron James is the one, dawg. He the one, man.

Iverson, the top pick in the famed 1996 NBA draft, came up in a time when seemingly everyone was trying to be the next Jordan and copy his game. Iverson eventually created his distinct legacy and attracted something of a cult following among some fans.
