"These days they think the tough question is Jordan or LeBron. No. Jordan or Kobe is the tough question," Wayne said. "Lord, forgive me. Jordan, forgive me. But it's Kobe."

Bryant certainly put together an outstanding NBA career, winning five NBA titles while being named to 18 All-Star teams. However, few would argue he was better than Jordan, and most at this point would say LeBron James is the better overall player.

Still, Lil Wayne clearly isn't afraid to drop the world on its head.
