In a recent podcast interview, Shane Battier discussed his NBA career, notably his time with the Miami Heat, where he won two championships alongside LeBron James. He expressed admiration for James, claiming he achieved feats Jordan couldn't, particularly winning titles with Battier as a starter. Battier also reflected on the tougher moments of his career, highlighting the humiliation of being benched during crunch time in his last season, which contributed to his identity crisis as a player transitioning to retirement.
I'm always going with LeBron for a simple reason. LeBron did something twice that Jordan, I don't think, could have done once: He won two NBA titles with Shane Battier as the starting power forward.
My last year, when I was told without being told that our best chance of winning doesn't include you Shane. Nothing was worse to me than sitting me in crunch time because that was my identity.
