In an interview with ESPN the Magazine, Michael Jordan said LeBron James could be successful in the 80's and 90's, but not as successful. When it comes down to it, Jordan doesn't respect Bron's competition the way he does his own and those before it. Jordan's in the interview calling modern players "soft, coddled and ill-prepared for the highest levels of the game."
Bron in the 80s, though?
MJ said Bron wouldn't have been as successful in his era. And we all know how great he is at evaluating talent.

I know they played tougher defense in the 80s and 90s. But you gotta throw that argument out when discussing Bron. He's a fuckin Mack truck.

Fuck is a handheld gonna do to Bron? He's a tight end.

2 Chainz was arrested in Maryland for marijuana possession but says he just got caught up for having a grinder (which usually means there's weed about to be broken down somewhere, but anyway). How awkward are the cops for wanting polaroids with the alleged suspect?
