Retired NBA legend turned TNT analyst Shaquille O'Neal has created some serious buzz this offseason.
First off was his iconic virtual spat with former Chicago Bulls great Scottie Pippen. The Big Aristotle dropped bomb after bomb on the man he called a "sidekick," but that war has since fizzled out.
Now the Diesel has ignited another fire, this one over the never-ending debate of who the game's all-time greatest player is.
For the most part, fans argue over whether Michael Jordan or LeBron James is the best in basketball's history. Recently, both MJ and LBJ have gone on record saying they would beat the other in a game of one-on-one, per Scott Stump of Today.
During a recent interview with AFP (h/t Yahoo Sports), Shaq took Jordan:
It would be an interesting game. Young LeBron was more like (Lakers Hall of Famer) Magic Johnson. He was sort of like Magic with Jordan's abilities. He liked to pass, and he liked to get it up.
