Former Detroit Pistons Bill Laimbeer, who won two NBA championships with the Pistons, said he would pick Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James over Michael Jordan.
Bill Laimbeer says he would take LeBron over Michael Jordan in a heartbeat. That's someone who would know.

Laimbeer played against Jordan for ten seasons as the Bulls and the Pistons were rivals in the Eastern Conference.
It’s fair to say Jordan and Laimbeer didn’t like each other.
Laimbeer might have an alternative reason for picking James over Jordan, but if Laimbeer didn’t have to play against Jordan for all those years, he might have a different opinion in this conversation.
