Michael Jordan Continues to Knock LeBron James Going to Miami

by HG

It’s unlikely that LeBron James would ever admit it but it has to hurt him that his idol, Michael Jordan, is questioning his decision to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Miami Heat. Jordan and Charles Barkley commented on James’ decision before teeing off at the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship. MJ reiterated his feelings Sunday in an interview on NBC at the golf tournament. Not beating them and then joining them was never an option for Michael.



 
It was less than a year ago that LeBron called for all players to stop wearing number 23 out of respect to Michael Jordan. Now MJ sounds like he’s lost some respect for the King. The only way for LeBron to get on the right side of Mike (and shut a lot of people up) is by winning a championship in his first year in Miami. Then the move is justified immediately. People will still find a way to criticize his game just like they do with Kobe. But a ring will make the past less relevant, just like it did for Kobe.
