LeBron James called out Tom Brady as the GOAT but said the Buccaneers defense should have been named Super Bowl MVP

• Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV.
• After the win, LeBron James was quick to shout out Brady for his effort.
• GOAT respects GOAT.

Tom Brady won the seventh Super Bowl of his career on Sunday, leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a dominant victory over the Kansas City Chiefs to lift the Lombardi Trophy.

After the game, Brady received some congratulations from LeBron James, who shouted out Brady as the GOAT via Twitter.

But despite the respect that James paid to Brady, the NBA GOAT did not think that his NFL counterpart deserved to win Super Bowl MVP on Sunday. That honor, James believed, belonged to the entirety of the Buccaneers defense, which shut down Mahomes and the Chiefs offense through four quarters.

Despite James' protests, Brady took home the Super Bowl MVP award - the fifth of his career.

GOAT respects GOAT.
