Ron Harper throws shade at LeBron James after latest accomplishment
LeBron James has now won as many playoff games as the Bulls franchise, which caused former Bulls guard Ron Harper to diss James.
When the Los Angeles Lakers stole victory out of the jaws of defeat in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets , they took a shocking 3-0 lead in the series. It also marked a milestone of sorts for LeBron James, who came up with one of the biggest plays of the game in the final moments of the fourth quarter when he knocked the ball away from Reed Sheppard and hit the 3-pointer that forced overtime. The Lakers' 112-108 overtime win gave James his 187th career playoff victory, which is the same number of playoff victories the Chicago Bulls have throughout their history.
The Bulls, of course, are the franchise that Michael Jordan, arguably the greatest player in basketball history, led to six NBA championships during the 1990s. The GOAT conversation just got more interesting š± pic. twitter.
