Isiah Thomas, Michael Jordan's infamous rival, calls LeBron James the greatest player of all-time

Isiah Thomas played against Michael Jordan many times and the two were infamous rivals, yet Thomas says LeBron James is the greatest player he's ever seen.

Given Thomas is 59 years old and likely started watching hoops in the 1960s or 1970s, that essentially means he thinks James is the G.O.A.T. He also played against others that would be in the conversation like Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Here's what Thomas tweeted on Thursday:

The best and most “complete” player I have seen in my lifetime is @KingJames on and off the floor.
