David Falk, a long time agent to NBA superstars like Allen Iverson and Michael Jordan, shared his expertise with those at Sports Business Journal's 4se conference on Tuesday and was asked to settle the age-old debate of MJ or LeBron James as the sport's greatest of all time.

In search of a better chance to win, James left for Miami in 2010—a move that many argue helped usher in the era of modern super-teams. He went on to win two championships with the Heat, followed by a historic title with Cleveland in 2016 and another with the Lakers in 2020.

To no one's surprise, Falk named Michael Jordan as the greatest player of all time. But what truly caught everyone’s attention was what came next. When asked who ranks second on his GOAT list, Falk responded with either Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Kobe Bryant, noticeably leaving LeBron James off the top tier.
