Like almost everyone who has ever appeared in or watched an NBA game, Dennis Rodman has an opinion in the Kobe Bryant- LeBron James "who's better?" debate.
He just picked an unusual forum to voice it: the "Judge Jeanine Pirro" syndicated courtroom television show.
During Monday's upcoming show, Rodman sues a friend/assistant for allegedly gambling away $4,000 of Rodman's money in an Atlantic City, N.J., casino. And he was asked the obvious question: Kobe or LeBron?
"That's an easy question," Rodman says. "LeBron, he's more of a power forward. Kobe . . . has basically grown into his skills. I think Kobe has [become] a Michael Jordan of this era because he's very smart, and he knows how to score.
"LeBron is more like. 'Here I come, watch out!' I think LeBron right now is more like a kid, like a freight train. Kobe is better."
For the record, Judge Pirro found Rodman to be a "very deep, very sensitive human being" who is trying "to be a bad boy, but there's a good boy in there."
