Debating basketball’s greatest of all time
Editor’s note: This is a column in which two big-time sports fans, 13-year-old De’Rico Spires and 33-year-old Aaron McKrell, debate some of the hottest sports topics of the day.
De’Rico Spires: Basketball was not better in the ‘90s because some of the people in the NBA were and are unknown.
Aaron McKrell: Coming in hot, huh? So, you’re saying that the competition wasn’t what it is today?
DS: No, because we have better NBA players, and coming out of the ‘90s, players were not that athletic.
AM: So let me guess: LeBron is your GOAT over Jordan?
DS: No, LeBron’s trash. My GOAT has to either be Giannis Antetokounmpo or Anthony Edwards.
