Former NBA star Shaquille O’Neal and one of his sons, Myles, had an interesting discussion as they picked between LeBron James and Michael Jordan. The father-son duo sat down with Complex Sports and they talked about other things also, aside from basketball. The clips of the interview were posted on Instagram.
The GOAT debate is unending and has divided fans, depending on who their choice is. The same is the case with Shaq and his son, who had different picks regarding who the best player of all time is. Myles chose James over Jordan, which surprised his father.
The LA Lakers legend went in the other direction and named Jordan as his GOAT. But after the younger O’Neal shared his reason behind his pick, the four-time champion couldn’t believe it.
“LeBron,” Myles answered. “I think it’s because I didn’t watch Michael Jordan at all.”

“You’ve got Google, don’t you? Google it bro,” Shaq responded.
Interestingly, Myles lurked in the comments section also and gave his GOAT a shoutout, apart from trash talking the LA Clippers.
“S/O to complex! And s/o to lebron! And F*** the clippers!” the younger O’Neal commented on the post.

No one is sure why O’Neal had to talk trash to the Clippers in his comment. But he too has joined the never-ending GOAT debate.

LeBron James’ son shared his list of 5 best players
One of LeBron James’ sons, Bryce, on Tuesday, shared his top 5 players of all time list. Like others, the younger James had an interesting choice of players. He didn’t select one player from each position.
Instead, he named the five players he loves to watch. Bryce named his father, LeBron, five-time champion Kobe Bryant, Chicago Bulls legend MJ, former scoring champion Carmelo Anthony and former MVP Russell Westbrook.
This list is very different from his older brother, Bronny’s selection. The latter shared his list in July. The only player whom they both had on their list was their father, unsurprisingly. But the older brother took the modern direction and named current NBA stars.
He named four-time champion Steph Curry, 2016 champion and his father’s former teammate Kyrie Irving and former OKC Thunder star Kevin Durant. Wrapping up his top five list were Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards and two-time All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who are both tied for the fifth spot.
