LeBron James Not Seeking MJ’s Approval

Basketball News & NBA Rumors

LeBron James isn’t worried about getting Michael Jordan’s approval, which is sure to add more fodder to the LeBron vs. Michael debate that’s picked up steam of late due to James’ impressive run of 30-point games and a collective media celebration of all things Jordan as his 50th birthday approaches Sunday.

“It doesn’t matter to me. If you take Kobe (Bryant) one and I go second, it doesn’t matter. I don’t get too involved in what guys say about me or if you take Kobe or if you take LeBron. As long as I’m on the floor and I make plays for my teammates, I don’t do what I do for other people’s approval.”
