Episode 023 | Are Jordan Fans DELUSIONAL? | LeBron vs MJ Sneaker Debate & Why LeBron Retros FLOP

#12hubsneakerpodcast

The 12 Hub crew is back, and this episode, we're calling it out: "unreasonable Jordan fans" are stuck in a time machine! We debate why MJ fans are so defensive and compare the sneaker legacies of LeBron James and Michael Jordan.

Why do Jordan's "moments" (Flu Game, The Shot) feel so much bigger than LeBron's (Soldier 10)? We also ask the big question: Will LeBron's sneakers EVER have the same resale value and nostalgia as Jordans? The crew breaks down why recent LeBron retros like the Big Bang 9s have flopped, while Jordans remain "timeless."

Like, subscribe, and hit the bell! Let us know in the comments: Are Jordan fans unreasonable? And whose sneaker line is truly the GOAT?
