Kevin Hart on LeBron James and the Sixers
Kevin Hart is hyped about LeBron James joining the Philadelphia 76ers, calling it the best thing Philly has done in a long time. While sitting in New York City for an interview with Rob Lep, the diehard sports fan refused to jinx the situation by overanalyzing it, though he insisted the Sixers have all the pieces needed to get the job done. When pressed on who runs the East between the Knicks and Sixers, or if the team beats Jalen Brunson individually, the answer was a resounding Sixers every time. On the GOAT debate between MJ and LeBron, Hart declined to pick a single greatest of all time, noting they operate at different levels of greatness but both belong in the conversation.
