No, we didn't have those conversations. You guys don't sit around? We was talking about him being the GOAT in seven, eight years into the league. Arguably, he's put together a career that will make sports conversations talk forever about who's the GOAT. It's not many people that can have that conversation to say that you will argue about who's the GOAT forever. I can't have that conversation.
What I did is I didn't get a chance to see Michael Jordan play. I was inspired by Michael Jordan. I grew up in Chicago. I played the game of basketball because I saw Michael Jordan play the game of basketball. And so my vision of it is so different. But I got a chance to watch that guy, LeBron James, up close and personal. And I've never seen a better basketball player in my life.
And so I think the GOAT conversation is, what does that even mean to you?
Everyone talks about it, not just in media. Like everybody on the street come up to you and they be like, hey, who's the GOAT? You're like, bro, you seven. Like why does this matter to you? Who's the GOAT? What do you tell them? What do you say? They ask me? Seven-year-old, seven-year-old. I ask them, well, who's your GOAT? It doesn't matter who's my GOAT. I'm 43 years old.
I grew up in Michael Jordan era. I played with LeBron James. I can pick anyone I want. It doesn't matter. My vision of playing a game of basketball came from Michael Jordan. The silhouette, the thing about when it comes to, I think when it comes to the GOAT is like you got to have the perfect height. You got to have the perfect form. It's all these things that go on.
The GOAT is not just the stats that you put on the court and the championships you win when people talk about the GOAT. It's the stories that people tell about you. It's all these things when it comes to being the GOAT. And so that's the era I grew up in. But LeBron James is arguably a GOAT. He's a GOAT. He's a GOAT to generations.
But the generation before him, it's very hard for people before him to call him their GOAT, right? It's going to be hard. But the generation after that, he's the GOAT to them. And so I'm not going to have an argument with somebody that comes to me and say LeBron James is their GOAT. Duh, he's a GOAT. It's multiple GOATs in this game.
You should start having those arguments. They're kind of fun. Those arguments are dumb.
That makes him your GOAT. Titles. And I respect that. And it's over. Conversation over. Thank you for your respect. Michael Jordan. Okay, there we go. That was a great conversation. Yeah, that was good. Seven-year-old. My basketball goal is Michael Jordan.
I've seen a lot of books in his hand.
You know what I love? I love when someone can make fun of themselves. Yeah. I love the fact that LeBron and his team has now marketed him as someone who reads the first page. The first page. That is to me, if you can make fun of yourself, people really can, they love you. If you can't and you take yourself too serious, then everyone else is going to take it too serious.
And so I love the fact that LeBron has now made millions of dollars off everybody talking about him reading one page. I never sat down and watched how many pages he reads. I don't care about that. I care about what he does on the court. But I definitely have seen a lot of books in his hand. I would just carry around the back of the book. Most people don't even make it past the back jacket.
Listen, I'm one of them people. I start reading a book and I'm going to sleep fast. I got to listen to my book. Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry. I ain't going to make it. I read the reviews, and I'm like, that's a great book. I can write a whole essay off of what I just read on the back of the book.
Wait a minute.
Oh yeah, who made, somebody did make that.
It was a fake one. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Wait, that's what everyone does. I'm in on the jokes. A lot of people say I talk a lot of shit about me. I wouldn't be who I am today if I really took it seriously.
No, it's cool. It came out of nowhere. It was crazy. It definitely was a crazy take, you know, and people ran with it. I was like, okay. It's a funny quote. Fake or not, it's a funny quote. It's funny. Listen, I like to laugh. It was funny. It was a little crazy. But you know what? Ha, ha, ha. My wife decided to do it. Then she decided to do it. Leave what we do inside our private home private.
What do you mean what happens inside? What happens inside? We don't know. We're on the outside. You just have a great time.
