LeBron James: “MJ Inspired Me, But A.I. Was God.”
Sports Illustrated published an Allen Iverson cover story and had some current NBA stars give their take on ‘The Answer’.
LeBron James, who not only gets compared to, but also is an admirer of Michael Jordan, gave an interesting statement. He said that while he looked up to Jordan, Allen Iverson was like a ‘god’ to him, because he represented what black kids were all about.
“He represented what black kids were all about, and he resonated with every inner-city kid in the world who had a struggle. Michael Jordan inspired me, and I looked up to him, but he was out of this world. A.I. was really the god.”
