“We really don’t deserve to be on the court with him” - 4x NBA champion says he hates when Michael Jordan is compared to others, claims nobody comes close to MJ

Andre Iguodala recently heaped praise on Michael Jordan, describing him as the greatest player of all time. Iguodala claimed that no one came close to matching Jordan's skills on the court and that there was no shame in players being considered inferior to the Chicago Bulls legend.

Jordan won six championships and numerous other accolades during his time in the league. Almost two decades since his retirement, he is still considered the greatest to have played the game.

On the "Point Forward" podcast with Evan Turner, Iguodala, who has been in the NBA for 18 years and won four championships, spoke about Jordan's greatness.

"I don't think any of us are in his vicinity. There's nothing wrong with being second to MJ. There's nothing wrong with that. And I hate when we try to compare people to MJ and then its like it's not even close. We really don't deserve to be on the court with him, that's my take."

Will LeBron James ever surpass Michael Jordan?

Jordan reached the NBA Finals six times in his career and emerged triumphant on every single occasion. He is one of the best scorers in the history of the league, and also had incredible defense.

Jordan also led the US men's Olympic basketball team to two gold medals.

LeBron James, meanwhile, is widely considered the second-best player in NBA history by fans and analysts. The Los Angeles Lakers forward has won four championships and many other personal accolades. He has also won gold medals at the Olympics, yet despite all of this, he is not considered to be at Jordan's level yet.

James is entering his 20th season and will try to win another championship ring before he retires. If he retires with five or six rings, he will have a better claim to the GOAT moniker.
