LeBron James’ ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ just released and fans wasted no time comparing it to Michael Jordan and his version.

The movie has seen both highs and lows, with most people finding some way to rip it apart. It has a historically bad rating on Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB, but many fans on Twitter claim that the way the movie is being bashed is wrong because of the fact that it’s meant to be a kids movie.

There were also fans who took to making a meme out of LeBron’s movie by taking clips from ‘The Last Dance’ of Michael Jordan laughing.

Jordan hasn’t yet reacted to the new Space Jam movie, but the way fans have speculated his reaction to be is truly hilarious. LeBron said that he wanted to keep making MJ proud and by releasing a new version of his iconic movie, he was directly crossing paths with the GOAT.

In a world of comparisons, LeBron couldn’t evade the brutality of NBA Twitter and critics who found some pretty inventive ways to bring Michael Jordan into the picture. All in all, if this edit tells us anything it’s that the LeBron vs. Jordan debate won’t be ending anytime soon.
