The Michael Jordan versus LeBron James debate seems like an unwinnable one because you really can’t go wrong with either player.
However, Josh Reddick has the perfect argument for finally settling the debate.
The Oakland Athletics outfielder recently talked about the NBA Finals, and he gave his take as to whether Jordan or James is the better NBA player, and according to Reddick, Jordan gets the edge. Why? Aliens, naturally.
“Nothing would please Warrior fans and the Bay Area more than to see the Warriors take down LeBron (James). Dethrone him,” Reddick said, according to SFGate.com. “As good a player as Lebron is, he’s not unbeatable. He’s not Michael (Jordan). When’s the last time LeBron saved the earth from an alien race?”
That, of course, is a “Space Jam” reference. For those who have no idea what “Space Jam” is, first of all, shame on you. Secondly, this is what Reddick was talking about.

Even the biggest LeBron supporters have to admit that’s pretty sound logic.
