President Donald Trump cast his vote for the greatest basketball player of all time — and it ain't LeBron James.
The president was asked by Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy to settle who the "best ever" was during a Friday press conference at the White House — hours after James announced he is joining the Philadelphia 76ers. Doocy asked Trump to pick between James and Michael Jordan, and Trump said the decision was a layup — and attacked the newest member of the Sixers.
"Well, Michael Jordan is a guy that's a friend of mine, played golf with him. He's a really good guy," Trump said. "And I think LeBron is, may be he's a racist. But maybe he doesn't like Trump I don't know? But I only like people that like me. So I would say Michael Jordan, all the way."
Trump's pick comes after the "Air Jordan" v. "King James" debate has been a hot topic among hoops heads for years.
James has won four ****** les and four MVP awards during his 23-season-and-counting career, which has included two stops in Cleveland, along with stints in Miami, Los Angeles, and now Philly. Jordan won six ****** les and five MVP awards while leading the Chicago Bulls during 13 seasons between the '80s and '90s; he came out of retirement a second time and played for the Washington Wizards in the early '00s for two years — an era most fans tend to just ignore.
