The GOAT Debate
The debate over who is the greatest of all time (GOAT) in basketball is never-ending, but Lakers legend Jerry West has a clear favorite: Michael Jordan. In a recent interview, West, known as "Mr. Clutch" and the silhouette of the NBA logo, praised Jordan's unparalleled competitive nature and skill. "I know Michael pretty well and we’ve talked about things like that," West shared.

Jordan's competitiveness is legendary, often driving him to extraordinary lengths to outshine his rivals.

West highlighted this aspect, noting, "He was arguably the best offensive and defensive player in the league.
