Charlotte Hornets head coach Steve Clifford is in a better position than most to make NBA comparisons and he did just that with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
In modern-day football, no one comes close to Real Madrid's Ronaldo and Barcelona rival Messi, who are the all-time leading goalscorers for their respectively clubs.
Arguably the two greatest players of all-time, the phenomenal duo are often compared to legendary pair Pele and Diego Maradona.
Ronaldo - preparing for the Euro 2016 final with Portugal - and Argentina's five-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi have also been compared to some of basketball's best, with Clifford - a known Manchester United supporter - likening the two stars to the Cleveland Cavaliers' three-time NBA champion LeBron James and reigning MVP Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors.
