Wade:LeBron won't top Michael Jordan's legacy

Dwyane Wade and LeBron James are close mates but even 'Bron's pal says the Cavs star can't top Michael Jordan.

"It's not possible," Wade told ESPN .

Wade was speaking about their respective legacies, which are subjective by nature.

Wade gave his response while laughing, but his point is pretty clear—there is no topping MJ. He said the best James can do is tie it, but even then he has a long way to go.

"They're both on the golf course," Wade said, using an analogy.

"Michael's on the 18th hole; LeBron is somewhere on like the fourth hole.

"He's got a long way to go, but he's on par to get to the 18th hole.  

We're sure James won't be pleased to hear this, as he's sort of made it a mission  to chase Jordan. But he's not going to let comments by other players stop him from his dreams, even if they do come from a friend.
