However, former New York Knicks star, Charles Oakley has provided his take on whom he would pick. What&#8217;s better is that he managed to answer it using a breakfast food analogy.<\/p>\n<p>Oakley is well suited to answer this question, more so than you and your friends. Kevin Garnett posed the question to the NBA great during a sit-down interview in which Oakley gave a solid answer that suggested he had already thought about the answer before.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;They\u2019d ask me &#8216;who would you rather play with? Lebron or Mike?'&#8221; explained Oakley. &#8220;I said, LeBron, but Mike\u2019s my best friend. Mike ain\u2019t passing me the ball. He doesn&#8217;t care if I get a shot today or tomorrow. But you know, that\u2019s how he got to be Mike. So when they make the comparison, \u2018who do you like? LeBron or Mike?\u2019 I say &#8216;Frosted Flakes, Corn Flakes. Mike, LeBron.\u2019 So LeBron has no sugar, Mike has the sugar. I was more of a Corn Flakes guy, so I\u2019m LeBron. So it\u2019s always going to be a comparison.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oakley&#8217;s answer resonates with the underlying factor in the debate, which has always been about who is liked more, or who was more popular in middle school. In summary, it&#8217;s a question as simple as choosing between Frosted Flakes and Corn Flakes.<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow on Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Matt_Reigle\">@Matt_Reigle<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/tag\/cereal\/\">Cereal<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/tag\/charles-oakley\/\">Charles Oakley<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/tag\/lebron-james\/\">LeBron James<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/tag\/michael-jordan\/\">Michael Jordan<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/tag\/nba\/\">NBA<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<div itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<figure>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/author\/matt-reigle\/\"><br \/>\n                <\/a><br \/>\n            <\/figure>\n<header>\n<h2>Written by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/author\/matt-reigle\/\"><span itemprop=\"name\">Matt Reigle<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<\/header>\n<p>Matt Reigle is a Philadelphia Flyers fan living in Orlando, Florida, and a University of Central Florida alumnus.
