After scoring the game winning basket, Miami Heat's LeBron James helped extend the teams winning streak to a franchise-record 16 games, but after the game he gave respect to another team for having another record-setting streak as well.

Patrick Kane respoded to James' comments on Twitter saying: "Back at you LeBron. Keep it rolling."

Blackhawks winger Bryan Bickell also responded to James:

Comparing the two streak has become one of the hotter debate topics in sports. A few hockey fans will dismiss the comparison because the Blackhawks streak is a league record in comparison to the Heat's franchise record.

According to ESPN, former NHL star Wayne Gretzky said the comparison is good for business for the NHL.

"It's nice to sit down and listen to talk shows and listen to TV shows," Gretzky said. "People are saying, 'OK, who is the better team right now and who has the hottest streak? The Heat or the Chicago Blackhawks?' That only enhances our sport and makes it bigger and better."

Gretzky envisioned having the debate with Michael Jordan. While Gretzky assumed Jordan would say the Heat's streak is better, Jordan has been a frequent visitor to Hawks games over the past few seasons.

"If we were sitting here, Michael Jordan would say what the Heat are doing is better than the Blackhawks," Gretzky said. "And if I was sitting with him, I would tell him what the Blackhawks are doing is better than the Heat.

"We're all biased to our own sport, and we all loved what we played, and we think the thing we did is the greatest sport in the world. But that's what sports is all about. People stand around and talk about it. 'Who's the best team? Who's the best player? Who's the most exciting athletes to watch?' There's no true answers, except who becomes the champion of each and every sport. That's when questions get truly answered."
